i'd say go with mega pulses with radio/microwave for long distances and multifrequency for close range.
armor tank it for specific dmg ofcourse,2 large reps, cap relays, med cap rechargers. get ur cap recharge below 200 if possible.
high:
7 pulses - 8 if u can fit them
med:
cap rechargers or cap booster..
lows
2 large reps, 2 spcific dmg type hardners, unless ur facing angels.
bloods/sanhsas = em/thermal
guristas/serpentis = kinetic/thermal
complete list here: Rat List
and cap relays/heatsink/rcu however u see to fit it all.

Megapulse, they are just comically too good.
They pretty much always fit.
They DO Masses of damage.
Their Fast Firing
Lasers dont need or run out of ammo and also swap crystals the fastest.
Their cap usage isnt much to be bothered about.
Basically they have all the advantages and none of the drawbacks of any other weapons on any ship.
And dont gimme the old they only do em/thermal dmg, because the mass raw damage and rof of those suckers negates the 2 damage types easily.

There's two mission tactics for apocs.. imo:
Short range tanking,
High: 6x mega pulse, 2x siege
Med: 4x cap recharger
Low: 2x L reps, 3x hardener, 1x hs, 1x cap relay
You should be able to tank all spanws and sustain the cap.
Use the sieges with IWin cruise or torps to kill frigs, so you can run if your tank breaks.
Long range (sniping),
High: 7x tachs, 1x cruise launcher
Med: 100mn AB II, Track comp II, Senosr booster II, Cap recharger II
Low: RCU II, 3x track enhancer II, 3x heat sink II
Make a bm, warp in at 120km and pwn away.
If you ditch a track enhancer for a second rcu II you can even fit tach II :D |

Tachyons are so so take up way to much pwrgrid,tracking sucks, yes they do awsome damage but the target has to be practically standing still, and they are way heavy on cap useage so go with megapulses. |

Yep i agree if you're as clueless as yourself i wouldn't use them either.
Using a long range gun at short range doesn't work.
Cap is not a problem once you have lvl4 skills.
As i said, it all depends on your tactic, either close range and tank, with a close range gun... mega pulse or go long range and snipe... with a LONG range guns.
Btw, at 100km tracking doesn't really matter, i pop inties in one salvo... easily. You start missing them at approx 40km.
This all depends on trans velocity tough, and since npc inties are stupid and fly in a straight line to you... trans velocity is damn low and you don't need tracking. |

the only thing that puts me off mega pulses is the noise they make, eve used to run w/out lag for me but i muted it just so that i didnt have to hear the *** noise they made, i like tachyons too bevcuase once they do hit they give yah a good kik in the nuts not a constant slap in the face like a mega pulse. love the pictureque visuals i give you of the weapons firing eh?
