Introduction
The below setups are good examples for the BASIC Class. If you have been flying solo or in small gangs, the lack of tank and / or MWD may stand out as odd, but keep in mind that EWAR and agility is the Hydra Fleet's tank. If you want to bring a Frigate not listed below (or modify one), note the following when fitting for the BASIC Class:
- Lowslot Priorities 1) Damage Mods for DPS Frigates; or EWAR Support for EWAR Frigates, 2) CPU Upgrade / RCU / MAPC as needed, 3) Agility Mods, 4) Speed Mods, 5) Tank
- Midslot Priorities 1) Afterburner required (MWD allowed for Alumni), 2) EWAR in all remaining Midslots
- Hislot Priorities 1) DPS (see WARNING below), 2) Remote Repair (Offline as needed), 3) Salvage
- Drones: An Armor Repair Drone if you can bring one will typicly be used between fights and isn't as likely to be left behind. If you can only brig a Scout Drone, cary a couple extra in cargo for potetial refit if the FC pulls the fleet into a station.
- Feel Free to upgrade from T1 to Named or T2 as your budget allows or fitting skills require / allow. Meta 1 or 2 Named is sometimes cheaper than T1 while being more effective and usually eaiser to fit.
WARNING: Setups utilizing Blasters, Autocannons, or Rockets (with low missle range skills) are vulnerable to Smart Bombing Battleships. We cover how to see & avoid this in Class, so if you elect to fly one of these higher DPS null range setups, then be especially sure you are listening for "No Bombs" before approaching a Battleship inside of 6 Km.
