FYI, if you are going up against a Exp/kin dealing enemy, I'd consider shield tanking it - shields have better native resists against that damage, and that way you can deal a lot of damage.
I only have a Navy Domi, and I shield tank it, but that frees up my lows, and the result is that the N Domi is one of my highest DPS ships (surpassing my Nightmare I think, and getting close to my Vindi)
The Domi can do just as much DPS, its shield tank would just be weaker.
Do you have:
*Drone interfacing to IV? if not, get it
*Combat drone operation to IV? if not, get it
*Drone sharpshooting to at least 4? if not get it
The domi should be able to chew frigs up very well
I second the idea of ditching your tracking computers, and adding omni-tracking links
Gun spec is not a priority now (note that you'd have to use T2 hybrids to benefit, and those use 25% more capacitor than your meta 4s)
You might consider dropping a (thermic) hardener, and adding a resist rig, to allow you to fit another DDA
Unless you're doing shield gank, I wouldn't even bother with the Mag field stab. A 2nd DDA will add more to your DPS than that 1st mag field stab, heck, even a 3rd DDA will still increase your DPS by more than that first mag field stab.
By dropping your mag field stab and 1 thermic hardener, you can fit 2 more DDAs, for a total of 3, which is near "ideal"
Your DPS will be much higher - just try it. Also, as you'll notice your gun DPS is now very little, the tracking computers will simply make no sense, and you'll obviously agree the omni links are better.
At this point, 3 DDAs, 2 omni links, your medium/light drones should tear up those frigates, and your gardes should tear up the BSs
Ditch the tractor beam, use a drone link if you intend to snipe (as with a MJD), or add another gun.
On that note - have you trained electronic warfare drone interfacing to 3 or 4 (to extend drone control range to 54 or 57 km)?
Also note, you can do the gallente lvl 4 epi arc for a storyline/pseudo-faction drone link that gives you 6km more range than with the t1 link.
I would also consider replacing the Ogres with the caldari heavy drone (forgot its name), Kin damage is better than Therm for serp/guristas/angel rats, and its faster, speed is the main problem with heavy drones.
Although... your garde tracking should suffice for BSs in close, and they have a buit of a range issue - BSs at range take too long for heavies to reach.... I'd swap the heavies out completely for Wardens (or bouncers, or Curators, depending on the enemy's weakness) |
