I'm about to duel and I know for sure one of his setups is all nos on highs. So I'm wondering the effects of smartbombs on him in general..

You'll die.
Nos sucks up your cap.
Smart bombs drain your cap.
Notice a problem?
I used to get It. Then It changed. Now I don't even know what It is.

Smartbombs aren't a viable weaponsystem in normal circumstances.
Yes, I use lasers, please stop laughing in the back. |

currently the only way to keep your systems online is to stay out of NOS range or use cap boosters
im afraid that that is all.
and at the poster above, i use lasers too... the laughter never stops

Well, if he is using all NOS in highs it sounds like a NOS Domi and it will be using drones for its damage.
Using cap relays/rechargers and/or cap boosters and timing it well you may find it useful. Zap all the Domi's drones and he's got nothing.
Although SBs do use a pile of cap so careful putting too many on. Maybe one or two large would be sufficient to pop drones (depends on the drones and your opponent's drone skills I guess). If you do not kill the drones outright and the Domi pilot is smart he'll pull them back in and redeploy.
Might be worth buying a long range (faction/officer) webber too. Slow him down so much he cannot close on you (you dictate the range) to employ the NOS. Fit guns/ammo that do best damage around that range. A smartbomb or two to kill his drones.
Let us know how it goes.
EDIT: Or fit an all passive setup. Some ships have very good passive tanks. Projectiles and/or missiles for offense. He can NOS you all day and it gets him nothing except juice to run his tank (and eventually he'll tap you out and get nothing).

I agree. Or a NOS Myrm, or a NOS Vexor. (Possibly even a NOS Arbitrator... let's assume it's not a Curse or Pilgrim.) Makes me want to fit out a NOS Imicus for comedy value....

Zapping all of a Domi's drones (minimum 3 waves of 5) may not be as easy as you make it sound, especially once your cap is empty....

There is no faction webber that reaches past 20km. Even if there was, I'm not sure that telling newbies to fit faction gear is a good idea. There are officer webs that reach that far, I shudder to think how much they'd cost (besides which, they all consume at least 1000 grid). Training for a Huginn or Rapier would achieve this effect, but that's a hell of a lot of training.

Much better idea.
Alternatively, go for a speed setup, and stay out of NOS range.

Whoops....my fault. I forgot the range of Large Nos.
If he's fighting a Domi (or contemplating it) though I doubt he is a newbie. Might not be a Domi though as you said.

Curious on thoughts on how a fully passively shield tanked ship (drake, etc) might do against a solo nos domi? Assuming that the drake has good shield/missile/drone skills?

I doubt the Drake could output enough DPS to threaten a Domi 1v1. Either the Domi wins eventually or it's a draw.

My guess is that they'd fall asleep from fatigue long before any of them 'd win. This duel would never end.
There's little a sledgehammer can't fix. If you can't fix it, you need a bigger sledgehammer. If it's unfixable, blame CCP. :p
