The correct answer is, it depends on the ship you fly. Amour doesnĘt have better resistance either, it depends on the ship and modules fitted. _________________________________________________ Nominate famous people in Eve who had an impact on you. |

Edited by: Pottsey on 27/02/2006 10:59:56 I donĘt believe every ship should be passive shield tanked. Take a Brutix itĘs got up to a 37.5% bonus to amour repairers in which case its clear amour tanking is better then active or passive shield tanking. But then a Ferox is useless as an amour tank compared to passive shield tanking.
So the question should not be which is better amour or shield tanking. But the question should be which is better for xxx ship.
Though for PvE it doesnĘt matter which method is better only which methods keep you alive. For level 3 missions you could amour tank or passive shield tank a Burtix just as effectively. If you donĘt die with either setup, does it really matter which one is best?

"It also has the advantage that i can fit as many cap rechargers as i like, with out taking a penility, where as shild tanking, cap rechargers cost 10% to shild recharger or shild hp."
ThatĘs a disadvantage compared to shields. Amour tankers get to fit a module to boost cap with no penalty or bonus to tanking. Shield tankers get to fit a module that boosts shields HP regen and cap regen along with total hitpoints. ThatĘs an advantage to shield tankers not amour tankers.
"But shield tanking can't be set too easymode ( as in letting everything run permanently ) shield tanking takes more micro management." Shield tanking can be set to easy mode. With no micro management and no cap problems. In fact itĘs more auto and easier then amour tanking as you donĘt even have to turn modules on and off for some shield tanking methods and it can for sure run permanently.

"Active shield tanking can't.... Sure it can. Just use gang assist to lower needed cap by 15% then use shield Compensation to lower cap another 10% with passive hardners to free up more cap.
