I've always had a lot of fun with a passively tanked Caracal setup with a PDS and a power relay in the lows an AB 3 passive hardeners and the piece de resistance the large shield expander that makes it all possible. Heavy missiles in hi slots of course.

What about shield hardners/resistance amplifiers? Would it be good to just get some of those for each of the damage types so they can't damage you almost at all in the first place?

For my setups ive always gone by this theory:
Mids: Shield Extender II's and Resist's > Shield Rechargers Lows: Shield Power Relay II's > * Rigs: Field Purgers > Field Extenders/Resistance Rigs
This can obviously be tweaked to include more dps with dmg mods etc in lows. This is not law but is a good guide when tanking.

ok searched for help on shield tanking and wow did i find it, i didnt read all the way through as it seems the thread stalled a couple of years back until recent but there doesnt seem to be much coverage on rigs? is it better to use purgers over extenders? or something else? anyhoo the setup i am looking at in about a week (when saved up enough) is as follows:
caldari Drake hi slots consist of 3x tech2 heavy assault 2x tech2 heavy launchers 2x tech2 rockets salvager
mid 2x tech2 large shield extenders 2x tech2 invulnerability field 10mn tech2 afterburner tech2 shield recharger
low 2x tech2 power relays 2x tech2 pds
rigs 2x purger 1x extender this gives me 14949hp with recharge rate of 279 which equates to 133hp/s at best.
Is this the best i could do? not sure about weapons exactly but like a bit of a mix. Any one done a similar setup as i said cant test yet as cant quite afford it but any suggestions are more than welcome.

Surely this is one heck of a great post. This post was recommended by a friend and i out it through the EFT calculator to find the optimal setups for my cruiser and for the ferox/drake. In the calculations I did the drake setup mentioned on this page was 14538 shields, 52.5% EM resist, 24% therm, 43% kinetic, and 62% explosive..fairly decent stats IMO.
Any thoughts on this? I am fairly new back in the game again after a 3 YR hiatus and would like to know if this is an option for fleet PvP and mainly PvE...
Comments appreciated. Everyone says I have a magnet attached to the front end of my ship...I do not....I just like ramming people |

My Drake passive tank build originally designed using EFT- High: 7x Heavy Missile Launcher (Loaded with Scourge Missiles)
Medium: 3x Shield Recharger II 2x Large Shield Extender II 1x Invulnerability Field I
Low: 4x Shield Power Relay II
Rigs: 3x Core Defence Field Purger I
Stats: Shield hp: 11791 Peak Shield hp recharge: 267hp/s Max Tank time: 58m 13s
Shield Resists: Em: 32.5% Thermal: 46% Kinetic: 59.5% Explosive: 73%
Disclaimer: I am a newb so this is a base setup which is relatively easy to attain and does not include max skills.

The thing people tend to do is get a tank that's too much, overkill. Of course, depending on your skill, this setup is enough for most Gallente/Minmatar lvl4 missions for example:
High: 7 HML II (or best named)
Med: 2x LSE II Heat Diss. Amp. II Kinetic Def. Amp. II 2x Invul II
Low: 2x BCU II 2x SPR II
Rigs: 3x Purgers
This will give you good damage and good tank, that even holds AE bonus room. Though I some times use a third BCU II instead of a SPR II in the lows (not on AE bonus level though). There are many different setups that work, for the mid slot area. But the main thing is to have balance between damage and tank. No need to have too much tank.
Point is to take out as many cruisers fast to lessen the dps, then battle cruisers, then frigs and in the end battleships.

ôpottsey, has there been any changes to fitting since the trinity update? all in all is this topic up to date?ö Apart from overheating active hardeners and a few ship slot layout changeÆs I have not come across anything thatÆs changed.
Up-to-date not really. My guide update is what a year late now? Only the most recent pages of worth reading in this thread.

ôHello pottsey... i saw you mentioning your hyperion passive ship... whats the ship setup? and can it handle all lvl 4 missions?ö No idea if it can handle all missions never tried. These days I spend most of my mission time in a gang My friend warps in and gets main aggro, I warp in and kill with just enough tank to handle aggro from single groups and new waves that warp in and target me.
I do have a solos setup but not done many missions with it.
Highs 8, 425mm railguns faction ammo Mids, X1 Webber T2, X2 Large Extender T2 X1 Shield recharger T2 X1 Inful Field T2
Lows 3 damage mods, 3 PDS all T2 Rigs T1 Hybrid amin Hybrid Burst Metastasis
I much prefer the above over my Navy Mega.
As for solo replace the damage mods with SPRÆs at least one SPR has to be a beta SPR or you run out of CPU and the 3 rigs with purgers. Though I recommend a fake alt in your gang with mindlink. With a gang bonus thatÆs a 417 DPS tank against serps T1 purgers or 506 with T2 with a 21k buffer. 248HP/s regen.
Damage wise it deals 424dps solo, 712DPS with the gang setup all without drones.

Mail me in game please or post the info I need here and mail me if I dont replay within 3 days. I need a list of what you want out the ship. what weapons, what type of PvE or PvP as much info as you can. Any must have none tanking modules? EG some people say an AB is a must. Need the tank to be cap immune? Fleet or small gangs? e.c.t
Its very hard to give the best (Insert ship name) setup without knowing more about what the ships main goals are. The tank I use in a Cosmos complex is very different from what I use in solo missions which again is different for what I use in group missions.

Hello potsey. Thanks for your great work. I'm very interested to see what you come up with the upgraded guide.
Btw. in one of your posts. I think it was about the strongest passive shield tank in game. You had aarived to a conclusion that moros is the strongest. How did you had that moros fitted ?

ôI'm very interested to see what you come up with the upgraded guide.ö Sort of burnt out with Eve lost all motivation to finish it. Its half done neatly and half done in note form. No idea when it will be ready. It would help if people would write a few sections or finish one of my unfinished sections. As for your question I think the setup I used before was
7 SPRÆs T2 2 Invul Fields T2 Heat Field T2 Photo ifield T2 Shield Recharger T2 Purgers T2
Not that I recommend that for most people. It works for PvE but cap takes too long to charge up so the jump drive is next to useless unless you have a friend with cap transfer or if you dock. For PvP I would replace the shield rechargers with large shield extenders. Replace the SPRÆs with PDS and purgers with extenders perhaps with a few damage mods and a DCU. Go for a massive hitpoint pool over HP regen. Might even swap the photon and heat for other things.

Hi all,
I only just heard a few days ago about the ability of the Myrmidon to put up a decent shield tank. I was intrigued and decided to train some shield skills to test it out. These are the results:
Hi's: Whatever u like but I tend to always include a drone link augmentor and a small tractor
Med's: 3x Large Shield Extender II, 2x Resistance Amplifiers II
Lo's: 5x Shield Power Relay II, 1x Damage Control II
Drones: 5x Hammerhead II
Rigs: 3x Purger I
With the above setup and no relevant skills at level 5 (only Shield Upgrades and Energy Grid Upgrades to lvl 4, the others are less again), I get a shield strength of 13548 and a recharge time of 154 secs. This gives a max shield recharge of 219.9hp/s which is not too shabby IMHO. This is intended for use in missions, so fitting rat specific hardeners will give an ability to tank roughly 550dps with the two primary resistances at 60% (quite easy with resistance amplifiers and DC II). This setup is cap stable and will never run out. Cap using guns will change that of course but fit with AC's, it should be a beast. Cant wait to train up projectiles...
Hope this helps anyone else thinking of doing the same.
Asp

I was just messing around in Qfit and came across a build for a Rattlesnake that looks pretty decent for a passive shield tank. Granted some of the gear for this build is hard to get but most is easy. Tell me what you think.
Hi's - Cruise launchers and some heavy neuts.
Mid's - 1x Magnetic resistance amplifier 1X Heat resistance amplifier 2x Shield Recharger II 2x Luther Veron's shield extender(these are probably hard to get so sub any good extender here if necessary) Low's - 6x Shield Power Relay II
Rigs - 3x Core Defense Field Purger II
This build has roughly 50% shield resists across the board. It has around 25,000 shield hp and a max shield regen of around 600hp/sec with the proper skills trained at max and implants. Anyways, I'd probably never do this but I thought I'd throw it out there for those of you who enjoy passive shield builds.
