Don't think it will handle those very well.
Was thinking about it considering the high kin and exp armor resistances of it, but the problem is that your typical angel spawns have pretty good em & ther resistances. So lasers will not be exactly the best weapon vs them. Likely it will be better to use projectiles there, effeciently wasting the command ship boni. (<- theorycraft, though)

I hunt 0.0 Angels in a zealot, it's not all that bad actaully. An absolution with an MWD(since it doesn't have a range bonus it's gotta get in close fast to deal the ubah damage with multifreqs/gammas) and 3 heatsinks would do a good deal better so yes it would work.

6 lasers really eat up the cap, you'll be able to maintain the tank and heavy pulse IIs for 3 or 4 minutes without running out of cap. Don't know if beams would be viable cap wise but I'm not an absolution pilot so I'm just going by what I know from the zealot and quickfit.

at present i find that running level four missions i can tank for nearly five mins b4 my cap dies...
and thast running the following setup
6 heavy beam II's 2cap recharger II's , fleeting propulsion 2x medium armour II reppers , 3 hardners, 2 faction cap power relays.
if i juggle my armour reppers i can tank for ever most spawns. and i stress MOST!
also i carry drones.

I should give the setup I came up with first:
HI: 6x Heavy Pulse II w/ Gamma(damage)/Standard(cap effeciency)/Microwave(Frigs/cruisers) 1x Arb Heavy Launcher w/ explosive missles
MID: 10MN MWD II Fleeting Web Cap Recharger II
LOW: Medium Repairer II Energized Adaptive Nano II Energized Thermic II 3x TS/DB Heat Sinks(if you're in a relatively risky 0.0 area than just T2. You'll want to maximized your DPS so factions ftw) CPR

Edited by: Felio on 08/06/2006 10:01:37 Yeah that could work too. My problem with your setup though is the lack of heat sinks, because angels have high resist in em/therm you'll want to maximize your DPS as much as possible which is why I include 3 heat sinks. The MWD allows you to get in close fast, and once you're orbiting a BS at 5000-7500 it will really cut the damage it can do to you by a good bit and hopefully you can hold the cap better(and with higher DPS crystals) by not having to use the rep as much. Because of the huge sig radius and speed difference between a zealot and an absolution I'm not entirely sure how well the absolutions tank will do in comparison. I find that my zealot does some of the lower bounty angel BS spawns without it's shield even being broken(and my zealot does include 3 heat sinks).

Nope.. it has the dmg output, but not the tank(imo).
Tried it, but since im often against, cherubim's, malakim's and seraphims, its a no-go.

I don't live in Curse anymore but while I was there I used my absolution to rat angels. I used 6 heavy pulse 2's, named heavy launcher, ab, webber, cap charger, medium t2 rep, ean II's x3, I think 1 passive thermic hardener and a couple of heat sinks. I know with explosive resistance of about 89% or so I could easily tank 3 seraphim spawns. And with conflag ammo I could kill em all.

Not really sure how this would handle angels as I have never used it against them.
This is my setup I use for lvl 4 missions and it works really well and have only had to warp out once due to dmg. My cap skills are 4/5 and once or twice I have had to turn my MAR off for a minute to allow my cap to regen. I use Radio, Standard, MF, Aurora and Gleam Crystals. With Aurora's I can hit at just over 60km.
Hi's 6 x T2 Heavy Beams 1 x xr3200
Med's 90% Web 2 x T2 Cap Recharger
Low's T2 MAR 3 T2 Active Hardeners T2 Adaptive Nano T2 Heatsink Cap Relay
