Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! I hope 2023 brings good fortune, happy memories, and a green killboard!
Noir. held a Secret Santa this year and I received a Nergal! This is a new ship to me, introduced in the Invasion expansion from 2019 - two years after I stopped playing. It's a Tech II Assault Frigate that seems to excel at brawling. The ship bonuses are:
7.5% bonus to Light Entropic Disintegrator maximum range
20% bonus to Light Entropic Disintegrator maximum damage multiplier bonus
Precursor Frigate bonuses (per skill level):
5% bonus to Light Entropic Disintegrator damage
4% bonus to all armor resistances
Role Bonus:
• Can fit Assault Damage Controls
50% reduced Energy Neutralizer capacitor need
50% reduced Remote Armor Repairer capacitor need
50% reduced Smart Bomb capacitor need
100% bonus to Remote Armor Repairer range
The fit I've been given is below and looks like it'll focus on sticking on top of your target and staying alive long enough for your damage to scale up with the dual armor reps. I wonder how big a target this ship could theoretically kill. Wit the microwarpdrive signature reduction, could it sig tank a battlecruiser? Could it outpace a battlecruiser's active tank?
Anyway, thanks to my Secret Santa! I'm very much looking forward to flying this ship and I hope I can do her worthy. Any suggestions on a good name?
