Hmm, funny statement imho, how is it overtanked once you get atleast 2 tps and a ab on it? Got any decent fitting?
Reason I don't like the Golem is it has crappy range with torps without T2 ammo, and even with T2 ammo it has to chase the NPCs around when they orbit outside your range. I shoot a lot of long-range BS that orbit out to 60km, and with lasers I can just go for crystals with better range if I have to. Outside torp range you also deal 0 damage, while lasers just loose a bit of their damage to gain the extra range needed to pop those pesky NPCs orbiting that structure 100km away. Plus you use up half your cargo with all the missiles you have to carry around.
What I want in my marauder is something I can roam the stars with for a day before having to go back to a station. Sure for empire missions you might do fine, with access to ammo and stations almost everywhere. Yet you constantly have to spend the isk you harvested in your missions on new ammo to be able to go on. I may have to buy a few new crystals IF I choose to use T2 crystals because of rats orbiting very close.
Do I salvage every wreck in a mission? No. I only loot/salvage wrecks and structures in range and those with potentially nice loot. I doubt you will get get a higher isk/hour ratio by slowboating around after everything is dead to every single wreck before you hand in your mission.
Here's the fitting you asked for btw, sure the tank isn't as overtanked as almost all the other fits that roam these forums with the two target painters and AB, but then it's the range...

Again switch out hardeners as needed, just me that prefers to use EM/Therm rats as base for my damage-specific tanks.
loose the ccc and use range rigs. This will enable you to hit any npc that orbits the 50km plus range. Loose the afterburner and replace it with a shield amp. The xl booster can be replaced with a large booster especial if you have implants.Just Remember caldari ships like to have active shields mods and implants are your best friend.BTW I can salvage and loot while I engage the enemy,so its hardly slow boating, making more isk maybe but not slow boating.
