Presenting the
    Rifter Refit

    NOTE: This is not an original design, I do not claim any credit for the design, this is based of CrissTheNightbringers Rifter, the original content can be found here

    Minmatar Rifter: Standard Edition


    Refitting this was mostly adding blocks, with some removals (such as changing some advanced armor to hull and some hull to standard armor)
    I have tried my best to keep the "look and feel" of the original Rifter while adding combat capabilities to the ship allowing it to actually enter combat and possibly win
    In combat the Rifter relies on its speed rather than its defences to get in close and kite the enemy, attacking from behind until it overheats into oblivion.

    Armaments
    :
    1x Shield Drain Beam (Cannon Slave, 2092 Blocks Total)
    1x Anti-Hull Machinegun (Piercing Effect, 1398 Blocks Total)

    1x Radarjammer (Sustainable while moving and shooting but not both yet)
    1x Jump Drive (14 Blocks Total)
    1x Scanning System (977 Blocks)
    11x Minmatar AMS Turrets

    Stats (All values are ≈) :
    226k Shields
    1.5 Million Armor HP
    1.8 Million Structure HP
    4526 Mass
    42675 Blocks
    8100 Thrust (Almost 2:1 thrust to mass ratio)


    The Zip file includes a Owners Manual (txt format) with some tips to properly utilise the Rifter (not complete, feel free to suggest more tips)

    In order to add the Rifter to your game:
    1. Extract Contents of .zip file to your prefered location (on windows this can be done by right clicking and pressing "Extract All" otherwise try using Winrar or 7Zip)

    2. When in the connection/settings menu of your launcher, press tools then click "Open Ship Catalog Manager" then click "Import" and select the .sment file in the location you extracted the ship to.

    3. Enjoy

    As a fan of EvE I can appreciate the Rifter, and the pain that comes with it. I was, however, surprised you didn't stick with the original Rifter design of 4 high slots ( usually 1 launcher, 3 cannons ). Rather, went for a full cannon/neut fit.

    I do love that you added some decent weapons to it, and I'm undoubtedly grateful! I feel like it needs more punch though ( granted it's technically a frigate ) . Maybe regroup some of those cannons for higher damage and add a launcher?

    Either way, pretty good refit!

    Thanks for the response, I may make an EVE Realistic version later, once I deem this version to be perfect (including better punch through) Ill be sure to let you know when the EVE style fit is out, I mostly play Caldari Ships in EVE, so I pretty much put effectiveness above EVE realisticness in this design, anyways Thanks for the Review :)
