Currently I'm running mono-cruiser fleet of Eradicators.

Please share you favorite Eradicator builds and what should I change and/or S-mod in mine

Build is like this

"No name yet"

3 Heavy mallers
3 Railguns in front slots
4 Vulcans in side/rear slots
Integrated Targeting Unit
Armored Weapon Mounts
Heavy Armor

No S-mods yet because I don't know what to S-mod

So far this build performs fine against pirates/pathers but even human faction opponents manage to destroy couple of Eradicators

I notice problems against fighters and shield-tanked opponents

Other options I see:

"Outdated":

3 Heavy Mortars
5 Light Autocannons in front/side slots
2 Vulcans in rear slots
5 Atroposes/Reapers
Integrated Targeting Unit
Armored Weapon Mounts
Heavy Armor

Have higher DPS but less range and even worse point defense capabilities. Spends more flux (that's why LA instead of railguns, they are more flux efficient).

"Safety Overrides":

2 Assault Chainguns
1 Heavy Machineguns
5 Twin Light Machineguns in front/side slots
2 Vulcans in rear slots
Safety Overrides
Armored Weapon Mounts
Heavy Armor

Even less range, requires elite Point Defense skill for officer. Shreds any fighters and have ok point defense. By my taste is a bit slow for SO build.

"Sniper":

2 High Velocity Drivers
1 Heavy Maller
6 Vulcans
maybe some missiles
Integrated Targeting Unit
Armored Weapon Mounts
Heavy Armor

1500+ range with officer skills allows to outrange even battleships. Low DPS but likely to be better against fighters.

PS And I want your suggestions for current/improved build naming. "no name yet" is strange name...
