Slashers

Ehrick flopped on the couch and propped himself up on his right elbow.  Leaning forward slightly, he accessed his fitting screen.  His Slasher had performed "adequately" during his roam into The Vale of  the Silent but his skills were increasing along with his experience flying the mosquito-like ship.  He began switching modules, tweaking his active tank and the low slots.  After a long time, he settled on the following:


[Slasher, MAR and TD meta]

Nanofiber Internal Structure II
Internal Force Field Array I

Limited 1MN Microwarpdrive I
Initiated Harmonic Warp Scrambler I
Balmer Series Tracking Disruptor I
Medium Ancillary Shield Booster, Cap Booster 50

150mm Light 'Scout' Autocannon I, EMP S
150mm Light 'Scout' Autocannon I, EMP S
150mm Light 'Scout' Autocannon I, EMP S
[Empty High slot]

Small Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer I
Small Projectile Burst Aerator I
Small Processor Overclocking Unit I

It wasn't fantastic, but it seemed to have a bit more punch and staying power than his current configuration.  He furrowed his brow at the prospect of picking up another skill in order to use the tracking disruptor but, in reality, a few hours of study would give him another layer of protection versus turreted ships.  He thought about this fit going against the RF Firetail he fought a few nights prior and wondered if the outcome may have been different...

"Aura," he said, "what would this fit look like when I have all skills to level five?  Advise, please."  

"Certainly.  One moment please."

The screen went dark as Aura accessed the Jita market and cross-checked the skills.

"Results available.  Total time elapsed, 0.24 seconds.  Ship statistics are as follows: damage is 124 hit points-per-second with Republic Fleet EMP at 600m optimal, 5 km falloff.  2120 effective hit points.  Shield recharge approximately 85 hit points per second.  Capacitor discharged in 41 seconds with all modules cycling."

"Display, please."

"Thank you, Aura.  Please save the fit and add the modules to my personal preferences."

He smiled, knowing that within a few days he would be able to undock a Slasher with that exact fit.  These are exciting times.
