    2 x Mass Drivers level 1 - 1 Rear Thruster level 3 - Shock 2 - Zynth Armor... That is a good set up to open VEGA Cargo 35s and 37s and you can upgrade your Rear Thrusters to level 4s also when you got it! And you should use Shoot/Run/Shoot/Run Technique! ;)

    Thanks, i've gotten 2 MD Talon, currently trying to stock up on antimatter to make more and really need more practice with the hit and run technique. Thanks for the set up!

    i wouldn't recommend using Rear 4 as you may need to tone down your armor to equip it :)

    no with zyn armor I have rear 4 so you don't really need less armor and with them it doesn't matter much about armor just shield

    I Dont yet have it myself, but it will be my next focus. 

    Rear 4. 

    It maximises the strength of your frigate class ships and thus enables you to optimally use your human controll skill vs the AI. Other than that, as said, fit a proper shield and a long range weapon like MD on it.

    Hello,

    the best setup for talons I tried is:

    2x MD 1, spec 3 shield, tritanium 1, rear thruster 3 and magnets 3... 818/828 tons.

    The magnets 2 might prove a bit ineffective on longer range.

    and here is prefect(not my) guide for strafing...
