Quutar Caldari M3rcs Inc	Posted - 2006.08.23 16:56:00 - [1] I am not asking which is the best dread, since that is always the one you have... but which dreadnought is the best for tanking... I would originally think the minmatar dread, since it could armor tank and not use cap for its gun... but I am not sure... which dreadnought is the best tank? or can all four dreads run thier reppers with normal tech I and II fittings... with out having to go officer mod level. sonofabeachballbouncingmarymotherfiretrucker

Quutar Caldari M3rcs Inc	Posted - 2006.08.23 17:04:00 - [3] i know the crystal implants don't work on a cap ship shield booster... but do the armor tanking implants work on the cap armor repper (one that does 5% less time and another that does 5% more armor repped?) sonofabeachballbouncingmarymotherfiretrucker
CrayC Gallente CrayC Inc.	Posted - 2006.08.23 17:05:00 - [4] As it have been said so many times before, there is no best in EVE. The Amarr dread, Revelation, would be the best armor-tanker with it's massive cap and 8 low-slots. But the guns use a lot of cap, as do all lasers. With its 7 med-slots, the Caldari Phoenix would be the best shield-tanker, but it has crappy cap. The Gallente Moros is probably the best armor tanker, even though it has 1 less lowslot and less total cap. The guns use lesser cap than lasers do and it has another med-slot for a recharger or whatever. And finally the Minmatar Naglfar is just not fun doing either with. Crappy cap, evenly mixed med- and low-slots. Nope. I'd go for Moros then Revelation for armor tanking...
Quutar Caldari M3rcs Inc	Posted - 2006.08.23 17:05:00 - [5] also... i was told that, like the crystal implants, a shield boost amp does not work on a cap shield booster... anybody know if this is true? sonofabeachballbouncingmarymotherfiretrucker

Phoenix: 3x Estemel modified invulnerability field 1x Estemel shield boost Amp 1x capital shield booster 2x chelm's modified cap recharger 3x Drachlir(?) modified PDU 2x Estemel's modified BCU And a CBC or carriwer with the proper shield tanking mods, in your gang, likely at a safespot. Not sure on the exact results of the above setup, but your resists will be insane, your cap recharge will be fairly high, and killing you will take quite a large amount of firepower. And whoever kills you will be a very happy camper.

Someone with tens of billions of ISK, and likes to have fun when playing a game? ...or Cally, since I can see them being broke in a year after 'learning to pvp' in officer fitted ships.
jonies BEAAC	Posted - 2006.08.23 23:06:00 - [12] Tested the Moros on the test server the other day, depending on what your target is POS or fleet combat. Didn't use a seige mod on this at the time of testing. 3 heavy neuts/3 dual 1000mm 5 cap recharger 2s 2 capital armor reps armor hardeners on the rest of the lows (lowest was like 70% resist) Tanked a seiged dread (Moros) and also played with a few carriers (not at the same time). Was able to tank the Dread for a while, granted was moving to make it harder for him to him me at times. But all in all it was a solid tank. Few hits where for 8k but was able to rep for a long time. Didn't have to worry too much about cap with the CRs on.
