No other dread will come close to this DPS/EHP ratio. It's not meant to tank, its only purpose is to hit hard and live long in a supercap fight.

Now, if only Citadel Torps could actually survive a couple of high-metalevel large smartbombs, they would be just peachy

Dreads dont fit smartbombs.
MS and titans do, but they dont kill dreads.

Incorrect. In every major capfight with people with a clue, Smartbombing carriers with t1 or t2 smarts cover dreads which instagank all enemy fighters and citidel torps. Which is why people avoid pheoxis to prevent their own torps from being shot down. Thats why RA/AAA/Bob etc use minimum of pheonix.

Wouldn't this remove the reasonably priced argument and be like twice the cost of replacement compared to above setup? Parrots, commence!

not enough calibration for a 3 T2 rigs. . .
anyway, I suppose if you are going to use a dread like this in a supercap slug it would be great. . .but I am feeling some resistance. In theory its great, but I don't know about practice. Lets see some vids of you taking down a supercap in this (which will have Smart Bombs saddly). ----

Weeeeeell, when in doubt, just go with the implants only  The rest of the "stuff" only affected EHP... and granted, only 30-ish-% more EHP is not a good reason for double price. But then again, you could drop the CN BCUs too and get T2s instead, get it even cheaper, and just use the cash for the implants (which with a bit of luck you'd actually get to keep even if you go "boom" (and then again, 3% implants are almost as good, but so many times cheaper).

You need to check BOB, RA, Goons kb more often and realise this has been the norm for a long long time,
Outside of EFT you will want to hit 75% cap from jump in in <20m, drop 2 BCU to PDU, drop kin to cap recharger. You'll still be the slowest cap recharging dread on the field but you'll at least have some sort of survivable time frame to jump if needed. Your EHP is still 2.6m and your alpha is still good.

If you were to train just for a dread, no sane person would train for anything other than a revelation. The numbers you're quoting are um, applicable for (percentage out of my a$$ incoming!) the 5% of the situations a dread would be used for.
Hit hard and live long in a supercap fight? Yeah that's like an every day affair  Boink! |

In my opinion Sokratez has quite reasonable fit. While CN/Dread invuls are very good they are a bit too expencive for fights where you actually might die. You are better off using that isk you would use to buy one to insure your dread before risky battle.
For BCU's while their price compared to hull is negliable I think that 3x CN would be quite reasonable and 4th might be as well T2 bcos of stacking penalty. That 2.5 % extra damage over T2 drops to under 1% when stacked so many times. If CPU is issue then CN damage specific hardener might offer cheaper cpu saving than CN bcu.
Hardwires are ofc very reasonable. Those that work on dreads that is.

Are you kidding? All of the dreads can get close to that EHP/DPS. Fit short range XL guns and passive tank them, I think even the Nagl can pull over 4k DPS and over 2M EHP.
Oh and when you clear the dreads and only the enemy MS/carriers are left, you will sure curse your dumb Phoenix fleet for being useless. --

Those close range guns are useless at pos spanking while phoenix can engage reliably above that 120 km mark from tower where short range guns on pos will hurt.
When there is only MS/Carriers left then your opponent has already lost and your job is done. Well sort of. Yeah - smartbombs can kill citadels, thats the main drawback on phoenix.
Altho my first comment was not aimed at phoenix, as reasonably good dread but more on CN invul vs Tech 2 invul part of the fit. Phoenix is good dread for POS shooting, against other capitals gun based dread with short range guns is superior bcos smartbombs dont disable those.

Post with your main. Also, wtb stats that prove anything you claim. Hint: closerange dreads have, well, 'range' problems.

never one to flame sokratesz but... some carriers fit smartbombs to stop death-by-citadel only turning them on when fighters have been deployed etc, that is on the rare occasion u see them outside of a pos bubble

Your job is certainly NOT done with MS/carriers on the field. You don't want to kill the enemy carriers and motherships? What? Lots of people blob with carriers, I'm sure you have fought carrier blobage.
You didn't say anything about range, you stated EHP/DPS. I personally know competent cov ops/force recon pilots that can get me good warp ins. Using a short range dread gun fleet on top of a long range dread fleet shooting a POS is an advantage of epic proportions. Just imagine if you dropped 20 gank megas on 20 sniping megas.

Excuse me? I never go there.
And the range most definetly is a problem. Caps can easily be bumped miles away and then your clsoerange gankfit suddenly isn't as great anymore.
I'm just saying that in a major capital engagement your first job is to kill enemy dreads as they pose the most real threat against your own dreads. Carriers and supercaps are secondary.
