Pretty simple, since they were first introduced they kinda slipped off my mind and now I would like to know which uses are they seeing, and by who. So just ask the EVE savvies:
Are polarized weapons used in PvE? Or they're used mainly for PvP?
Which are the more popular polarized weapons and their uses?
Thanks for any serious answers (this is GD, I know...)
73% of EVE characters stay in high security space. 62% of EVE subscribers barely PvP. 40% of all new accounts just "level up their Ravens". Probably that's why PvE content in EVE Online is sub-par and CCP is head over heels for PvP...

Well, I bear that in mind. Also won't tell whether I'm thinking of any use...
Structure bashing was something I suspected since structures usually don't shoot back...

opinions about their use are rather polarizing
how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

I was just gonna say bombers probably love these. Now, we just need to convince CCP to add in cap level polarized guns/launchers and watch from a safe distance.

Remember just because something reduces tank for higher DPS, it's not to be easily ruled out. Reason is, DPS can be your tank in particular in PVe where removing enemies from the field will reduce the damage you take rapidly.
For PVP, I'm not sure. Too many variables. If you get jammed you're done.

Polarized weapons can be really useful on a dps ship in a small, well organized gang since your tank is your gang mates ability to control the enemy while you pop them. |

That sums up GD quite well, but that is why normal people are here to point and laugh at them.

I theorycrafted a polarized pulse navy omen fit a while ago that would probably work for blapping frigates but I haven't gotten to using it yet. Range and speed are your tank, with good dps and application to peel ships off as they come into optimal sounds good to me. |

As Wingspan suggested, they fit well with Bombers (where your resistances have almost no effect on your tank (because if you're being shot at by something you might not be able to kill your tank has already broken)). I've also seen some interesting Marauder fits (well, Golem and Vargur fits) which use swathes of shield boost amplifiers to achieve very high shield boost amounts, compensating for the loss of resistances. |

I use them for blitzing L4 missions. 100-120 mil/h https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=5717911#post5717911
They might be useful for Speedfarming C3 anomalys. They are not harder than L4 missions. Could make 500 mil/h depending on ship, Effects and application. I actually haven't tested it.
They might be a good choice for suicide ganking and PVP Bombers. As some peoples mentioned, these weapons are effective against Pos and Pocos. I actually EFT warriored a bit with T1 frigs with these weapons for PVP(Slicer with 300dps or Daredevil with 600 dps).

I'm still watching your videos. While 'other people' (who have the nerve to call themselves PVErs) are sitting around convinced that polarized weapons aren't worth it, you're making them work and making isk from it. That sir is PRO level PVE, I take my inspiration in game from folks like you.

There's a guy in the My Eve section of the forum that has a bunch of polarized weapon PvE videos including C3 anoms in a polarized Legion.\
