I dunno, Rifter just.. looks bad to me. It's a 3 guns, 1 missile layout, 3 mids, which is enough to get the scram+web, but not enough CPU do do exactly that lol. And 3 lows, which.. again.. is terribad. The dual falloff rigs are utter crap tho. You are limited by your missile range anyway, because you want to maximize your damage.
And 1 damage module is.. meh.

Omega Clone Fit

Based on what I've read online, the Scram Kite Rifter fit with rocket launcher was a thing even after the Rifter nerf so it may still be viable. I found a video from 2015 explaining the fit and showed some interesting fights here. The fit in the video uses Rate of Fire rigs instead of Falloff rigs and this provides better DPS until about 5.2km in comparison. Falloff rigs provide about 10-15 more DPS at about 8km but by then the target will be out of scram range. Overall DPS is highly competitive at All 5s.

I think we should retain this as an advanced fit as there is still some activity on killboard that use this fit as well as the legacy neut/buffer fit.

  • Notes
    • AB/Scram/Kite archetype for Faction Warfare PVP
    • Autocannons have tracking advantage over other turrets and a range advantage over Blasters.
    • There is fitting room to adjust meta versions of Scram/Web
Alpha Clone Fits

Besides the FW fit the Rifter has mostly become a Fleet fighter that newer Minmatar players favor. Inspired by Neonen's fit the AC fit below boasts better dps, has a better tank to boot and still comes off as a cheap fit. Armor tank works well for a short range fighter as it needs to be able to lock down the target to apply well.

    • Notes:
      • Very Tight in terms of fitting even at Max Alpha Clone skils
      • Can swap Warp Scrambler for an extra Webifier to free up CPU room if fleet composition allows it.
      • Throwaway fit at 1.3M ISK
There are artillery fits out there but I'm not sure being able to do 500 volley is sufficient enough to plan Alpha Clone Alpha fleets. The DPS is lackluster when compared to the auto cannon fit otherwise.

Replaced "Rifter: Gang PvP - Alpha" with Biwako's fit, published White's Solo PvP AC as "Solo Brawler" which looks better. The only question to White: why Nos, not Neut?

Also added Arty Scram Kiter (Raido's fit).

Do we really need "Gang PvP - Day 1", who cares about "Day 1"? And I don't understand this fit... Even for Day 1 it can easily fit either 200m plate to low+DC1, or MSE instead of 1 of tackle modules+DC: this will only a bit compromise DPS but will greatly improve survivability.
But either armor of shield, rifter is bad for fleet PvP because of low dps or really low tank. Only benefit ability to stay out of sram... which for frigate fleet pvp is not a big deal

After another rebalancing, Rifter lost high slot, got low, all fits need the revisit.

Feel free to offer better variants.

I'm only seeing 11 losses on killboard with the bulkhead rigs. Its either super effective or hardly used. I reckon bolstering your reps using armor repairer related rigs could improve your tank better for longer fights than the bulkhead would.

Fleet PvP - Day 1
I'm sure the Day 1 fits are hardly used but just in case I'd like to propose that the update carries a little more tank instead since its so easy to blow out of the sky with low SP speeds/tank. That's 65.6 DPS (-5.3 DPS) but it does have vastly improved tank of 2724 EHP (+826 EHP) at Day 1 SP without hindering speed. Alternatively we could fit a 200m plate to vastly improve the EHP at cost of about 150m/s speed.

From the newer Rifter fits I'm a bit partial to this modification of White's. Though there seems to be prevalence of 200mm armor plate instead of ANP for scram kite fits I find in zkillboard.

I would abandon the Scram Kite wRocket fit.

Arty scram kite
I have no suggestions on this it looks very niche. There are a couple of variants seen on killboard but the bulkhead fits are uncommon.

The rifter still has one four high three low fit on the wiki that should probably be removed.

It is not in fleet-up anymore, I feel like somebody just removed it... Should be reflected on Wiki soon.
