My New FAVORITE Ship in Gaming! The Kikimora Destroyer - a Triglavian Eve Online Ship 

IIISentorIII how long since you’ve last played lad, the game has gone through monumental changes (for instance if you left under dominion era sov, titans have aoe doomsday’s again only they are targeted and actually require a brain to use).

Poor foxy.

i know your pain fox, but you solve this by making new friends in eve.

I came back to it over the last 4 months..... I was glad I did.

Look up Oro Ul'andor when you get back in. You will have a whole new set of friends waiting on you.

I agree that most eve videos of simple game-play are not a pleasure to watch! lol

Most of what makes Eve interesting happens on the cerebral plane, so it is indeed nice to have someone illuminate it in more tangible terms.

Not an opinion. You are correct. However it also transforms a bit differently during warp.

Absolutely same feeling here. I get a massive dose of nostagia anytime I see a video about it.

Well then you have ikitursa wiki.eveuniversity.org/Ikitursa

They gave battleships 3 au warp speed . 3 hyperspatials and it goes 4.71 au warp speed .

It is a sexy 800mil destroyer, for sure.

If I ever start playing this game, I'm gonna main the Kikimora. Just hope it doesn't get nerfed

@@reclusiarchgrimaldus1269 may 2022 here , kikimora is still one of the greatest EVE ships right now.

@@nourbendali2206 its great for group skirmishes imo

Yeah he was a bad for getting within neut range to begin with ...

The kiki did it wrong since he can outrun you and the dragoon only has 15km neut range unless you put faction neuts on it.

@@williamnicholson8133 how can he outrun me if he is scrammed? He was not so bad but i just slingshoted his orbit and put him under scram . i think everyone just underestimates dragoons :D and get to close

@@ZND014 you just answered your own question "his orbit" if he was a decent pilot and paying attention he would have been manual piloting, hitting orbit is too easy to counter. Nice kill though my man fly safe o7

@@evanray8413 OK as I didn't use any of those words, I guess your just flexing your grammar superiority knowledge to anyone that might listen. Glad folks like you are out there getting pleasure out correcting others. Maybe get a pet, something easy like a fish, just one. Don't over tax yourself.

@@KalRandom I don't get any pleasure from it. Just doing my bit to educate.

P.S. "Nice to hear *there* good."

They do all bridge functions alone , larger ships in eve still have normal crew in the lore

In the lore of EVE, players use characters called capsules which are neurologically linked with their ships, allowing then to control anything from the smallest interceptor to the enormous titans with their minds

hopefully the Triglavians will save us from Disney star wars

If the trigs had drones I’d join lol

43 km with Barion ammo with excellent tracking. I've been using this ship lately. I love it and am training to 5 so I can try the T2

I was using a blaster fit Catalyst but the tank is garbage compared to the Kiki and once spooled I max out at 607dps with the 3% implant, one t2 heatsink, and the faction disintegrator. I'm still waiting on destroyer 5 for it to max out the DPS a little more as well.

no, I don't think destroyers can get in there? I used retribution.

@@resurrectedstarships yea they can, all the way to assault cruisers

8:14 thats what i use for solo pvp most of the time, as long as its fast. I used it badly here against a slasher waiting for me in a FW complex. Had I setup to attack or defend at range slasher would be dead.

Web and arty loki will certainly murder it, if the webs are on it. Its not a mary sue ship.

@@resurrectedstarships yeah 1v1ing a t3 isnt a good idea they can have ridiculous amounts of tank sometimes Wonder if this can win a fight with jackdaw They are quite similar but jackdaw can exploit its resiat holes Damn i miss this game . i was playing it far too long so i deleted it qnd then deleted my account for good messures.

A destroyer being oppressive to frigates? What you think destroyers are for?

@@xellotathtier2356 aside from the fact that I can list about a dozen matchups where frigs will typically be favored (see tristan vs thrasher for instance, slasher vs coercer etc), Destroyers are slow, vulnerable to cruisers and unable to keep up with frigs, the kikimora can solo alot of cruisers and even battle cruisers, travels at frig speeds, has superior tracking and vastly superior projection. Only T3D's come close and even then they themselves are too slow to hold down a frig(when t3ds were fast enough to hold down and kill frigs easily, they were considered overpowered and later nerfed, the same condition has occurred with a singular ship). Your engagement range with a kiki is literally everything with a range shorter then 40km, no other destroyer can do that in the current meta without a giga bling fit.

@@davianthule2035 Non T3Destroyers being slower than a lot of cruisers is one of the reasons why they're useless outside of fw plexes. Kiki can't solo any cruiser with projection. Caracal (any RLML ship really), Stabber, Cynabal, Omen Navy, Rail Vigilant, etc any non brawling cruiser really will kill it. As for the brawler cruisers you can kill them with T3Ds too. Beam Confessor can kill blaster Thorax or a Vexor or a short range BCs without MJDs like a hull tanked Brutix, etc. Kikis are indeed op, but saying they're oppressive to frigates is kinda dumb, since thats what's destroyers are for. Frigates can't kill destroyers of the same "style". Like yes a Slicer can kill a blaster Catalyst by kiting it, but it will eat shit against a rail Cormorant. A blaster Incursus will kill a rail sniping Cormorant, but it will die if engages a blaster Catalyst at 0.
