I've had very good results with my Snipergeddon setup.
5x Mega Modulated Beam
2x Dual Heavy Modulated Beam
1x Named Thermal SB
2x Named Tracking Computers
1x Named Sensor Booster
1x Medium Acco
5x Heatsink 2
1x Tracking Enhancer 2
1x PDU 2
The Megas do 120km optimal and the Dual Heavies do 106, targetting range is 120km as well. I haven't tried it on any players but it rips apart Sansha BS rats in about 20 seconds with radio crystals.

The best tachs I had were 3x Modals and 3x Afocals, the Mega Modulateds outdamage them and have the same range (plus less fitting) as the Tach Modals. Modulated Tachs would be fun but if I ever got one I'd sell it.

Any other ideas to make this better? Obviously a tech 2 sensor booster and tech 2 tracking computers would be a good first step. I'd also like to see if I can ditch the SB and PDU 2 and get an RCU2 and try and fit two more Mega Modulateds.

Or you could use some Tech II Megabeams. Having Large Beam Specialize at lvl 4 would be like having an extra Heat sink equipped. The only problem would be instead of the PDU you might have to equip a RCU or Two considering that each Megabeam II takes 500 more powergrid to equip.
Oh BTW while we are on this topic - I am actually selling MegaBeam II for a price of 7 mill per gun or 5 mill to SE members. Feel fre to contact if your interested

Ok my 2 pennath worth.
Had a imposter in the system, and thought i,ll try sniping so here what i used, apoc 7 Tacyon Tech 2 Level 4 2 x tech 2 trackin comps, a few heatsinks and some other low slot trackin thingy.
Now with just 2 trackers in the mid slots and with radio crystals your optimal range with Tac 2s is 133k my gunnerys maxed by the way. and ratting is easy. What do you do if they get close u run, but normally they dont unless u get outside the 150k warp range just stay inside that, at 133k i hit for 290 to 400 with radios if they get to 100k it drops to 100 to 200, with multis not too sure never risked it as the optimal is only 33k dont wanna loose the guns hehe but im sure it will be awsome, as with the medium beam IIs with 5 hs2 on a sacrilidge gets ya 200 a hit.
anyway the imposter was sat at 230k from a gate so i thought i,ll try get him, for me to get anywhere near him i needed 4 TC IIs in the mids and my alt in a scorp with 3 boosters for lock and 5 trackin links and even then i only had an optimal of 195k. hasten to say by the time i was ready hed gone LOL.
by the way does any1 have the ranges for the crystals on Tacs i norm only use Radio and Multi, never had time to stuff the others on and test.
Diabs
p.S 6sec rate of fire, on an APOC VS 5 secs on a geddon.with Tac 2s just cant fit as many guns due to cap

6x anode tachyons
3x sensor boosters 2
6x tracking enchancers 2, heat sink 2 and a rcu
Its an arma afterall  THe tracking is mainly to increase the optimal, further im away, less chance ill get caught as a sniper. Tracking over 120km does not matter alot. Killed a crow doing 2km\s transversal 110km away.
Its a setup that requires great patience, and great preparation. Other than that, ive been decimating CA tackler squadrons for a while now  Works great

Far from it actually. A heat sink II gives 10% dmg and 10.5% ROF. Quite a bit more then the 8% dmg you get from specialization.

low slot and mid slot mix of tracking enhancers and sensor boosters? Or maybe support ship with remote sensor boosters and remote tracking enhancers?
I've never tried it but it does seem like a long way for a single armageddon.

This should do 150km:
As many named Tachs as you can fit
2x Sensor Booster 2
1x Tracking Computer 2
5x Tracking Enhancer 2
3x Heatsink 2

The first heat sink II gives that, Meridius. Note the stacking penalty. He's talking about those skills with respect to a setup with 5 heat sink IIs on it already, so he's saying that 8% damage from the spec skill is like a 6th heat sink, which is pretty much true.

i havn't been on for months, yesterday had a gaddon kill my destoryer at 156km use tacyon with IR. So I fit my gaddon with 5 tacyon and 2 beams tech2 ( for frig) with 2 sensor booster tech2 and 1 cap2 and 7 computer track tech2 gives me trageting range 200km+ and can do up to 200+ damage at 130km with IR.

Yeah, I found a similar setup for an Apoc like that:
8x Mega Modulated Beams
1x Quad Lif MWD
1x Sensor Booster II
2x Tracking Computer II
1x Reactor Control II
6x Heat Sink II
A bit risky for NPC'ing with no reps or anti-frig weapons, but does great damage.

pff - any geddon can get 150km... my apoc can hit at 180km and i am crap at fittings... all i do is fit 2-3 sensor boosters and 7 tracking enhancer IIs it beats any setup iv read... so all sm1 has to do is fit 8X tracking enhancer IIs and 3 sensor boosters - on my setup iv just used tachs tho. |

The best setup that i've found and tested;
High Slots
5x Tachyon Beam Lasers w\ Radio and Multi
2x Medium Pulse Lasers w\ Radio
1x Large Smartbomb
Mid Slots
2x Sensor Boosters
1x Tracking Computer
Low Slots
3x Tracking Enhancer II's
3x Heat Sink II's
2x LADAR Backup II's
This setup, from my experience, is extremely effective. The Tach's optimals are ~130km with Radio, tho obviously dependant on named modules\skills. My Tachs have a 7x dmg mod with a 5.05 sec rof, which is a better DOT than a sniping tempest. The Medium Pulse (and the smartbomb, tho to a lesser extent) are extremely useful also if any Frigs manage to get close (they hit well with 3 dmg mods and 3 tracking ). And the backups have proved extremely worthy having them fitted.
Hope that helps ..

Just curious - as the enemy gets closer, at what range do you have to change crystals? I.e. how close are Radios still effective?

How do you cap tank all this? I've been trying out a similar version of alowishus' setup. Is very nice to hit at over 100km. BTW. Multifreqs do rediculous damage to ships in range, think almost double of what the radios do. Also, wouldnt it be better to have like AB or something? I figure you would want to keep the range. Word, thanks for this post... has helped me out a lot! cheers,

5x tachs(gamma, xray, microwave)
2x med beam lasers (radio)
2x trac computers 2
1x sensor booser 2
1x med armor repairer 2
1x cap relay
6x heatsink 2
Having recently come up with this setup, i am damn proud of it . The choice of crystals is odd to most, but its like that only to increase dmg as much as possible while keeping to max targetting range (not over doing it like with radios). Having the xray crystals is for medium range (just incase) and is there to once again, maximize dmg output. I use gamme only because i like the tad bit more optimal. Med beams keep the pesky frigs oppressed nicely
Mentioned items in midslot do great work to increase optimal and range. I can lock targets at 124km, i can get it just past 130 once i train a skill a bit more.
The lows slots were a little tricky. Since i am very cautious and pvp (also npc) is dangerous, some protection was needed for flexibility, so i put on a med armor rep. It fixes nicely and takes little to fit. The 6 heatsink 2's obviously increase the dmg output. The cap relay is only on there to better blance out the cap loss when running the mods and recharge once the guns have stopped firing. |

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but don't Amarr ships use RADAR targeting? Wouldn't a RADAR Backup Array II be more useful?

For a strong NPC setup you would do better with a sniper-poc (Adv weapon upgrades 4, eng 5)
8x Megamodulated
1x Sensorbooser II
3x Tracking Comp II
1x Med Rep II
6x HS II

havent used a ged for sniping for a while. but when i do i use
7x t2 tach
2x sensor boosters 1x tracking comp t2
3x dmg mods t2 3x tracking enhancert2 2x rcu t2
decent damage. good tracking. good range. relatively cheap since the ship is cheaper. but u really dont wanna loose those t2 guns
when in a sniperged i make sure that i pop those harpys/enyos/cepters/destroyers first since tracking tends to be better then the tempests and megas in the group and EM rapes caldari and galante AFs/hacs
yes people will complan about 2 fitting mods but before you do.
this does 18.196% more DPS then a sniperthron. 15.7% more tracking then a sniperthron: 9% less range: nd is tier 1 so its cheaper.
[note: comparision made to a mega with 7x t2 425s. 2 sensor boosters. 2 trakcing comps. 1 tracking enhancer. 3 dmg mods. 3 unhonourable wcs][all max skills]

Are u guys really play Eve? or just use u character-progs ? :)
7x Tachyons with no recharges or batteries (800) - it about 1min of shooting :) (and of couse it needs 2 or more RCU T2 units even with super skills)
So use 5x Tachyons, 2x SensorBoosters 1xTC T2
3TE T2, 3HS T2, 1Large Accomodation and something u need in different situation....

Quickfit's cap simulation comes out at just under 150 seconds before your cap dies with no cap boosting modules fitted. 1 medium elec cap booster with 800 charges will run them for as long as you have charges to load into it (cap stabalizes at about 60%-70%).
Tachyon II x 7 w/ gleam
Medium Diminishing Nos or something else that uses similar cpu
Medium Elec Cap Booster w/ 800s
Sensor Booster II x 3
Tracking Computer II x 3
RCU II x 2
Heatsink II x 3
200km lock range, 185 optimal, 25km falloff.

I can hit hard to 200km in an arma. With someone boosting me I can hit hard all the way out to 249 (max lock range).
For ratting I use megabeams with standard crystals (75k optimal).
