Sentry snipah, maximizing range.

Alright, making a myrm setup for sniping with sentries (for giggles), and going for max range/damage/lock speed/all that good stuff.

Fitting wardens and three omni-trackers, I've got up to 100km range w/ some nice lock, only about 150 dps tho, but eh.

Anyway, is there any other way to improve range, like using tracking links instead of omnidirectionals? And is there any use for my lowslots for range/damage? (besides nanos and stabs for bugging out) :P

You will need Drone Link Augmentors in your high slots. You can't set your drones to attack anything outside your drone control range so getting that to match your sentries max range is important if you want extreme sniping ranges on sentries.

Sentry Damage Augmentor rigs will increase the damage of your sentry drones and Drone Scope Chip rigs will increase the optimal of all drones.

For increasing lock range your options are mid slot sensor boosters, low slot signal amplifiers and Ionic Field Projector rigs.

You will have to play around in EFT and come up with a fit that balances lock range, drone control range and sentry range. The absolute max range your sentries will hit anything is optimal+2*falloff.

You'll get significantly better results with an Ishtar.

You can take several flights of sentry’s along (3 full flights I believe at max skills, has larger drone bay than domi), you can use 5 of them at once (compared to Myrm’s 4 dew to bandwidth) and you get +5 km control range per level of HAC.
