Currently im using a VNI, around 500 dps and well i can do fine Ports and forsaken hubs, but once i go to 8/10 complex it just takes to long... basically wondering what should be my next step?
Here is the fit that im using:
[Vexor Navy Issue, Super Miguel's Vexor Navy Issue import 6] Drone Damage Amplifier II Drone Damage Amplifier II Drone Damage Amplifier II Drone Damage Amplifier II Omnidirectional Tracking Enhancer II Omnidirectional Tracking Enhancer II
100MN Monopropellant Enduring Afterburner Large Shield Extender II EM Ward Field II Large Shield Extender II

That 4th DDA is doing almost nothing.
Have you thought about skilling up for an Ishtar ?

it just seems like the rattlesnake has alot more dps potential easy to get to 1000dps but ishtar can barely hit 700 |

Against Sansha I'd recommend an armor tank. I personally enjoyed using a domi in Sansha space, though I'd imagine an ishtar would also be a good choice. |

1) Generic T2 Domi caps out about 600 to 800 DPS depending on drones but the damage application is exceptional due to the hull bonuses to range and tracking. If you want more DPS than that you need a Navy Domi and some large turrets as well as the drones but you lose those hull bonuses.
2) Rattlesnake can get up to 1800 DPS but only 700 or so is from drones the rest is torpedoes. plus depending on fit it sometimes has trouble applying that 1800 to anything smaller than a small moon :D
With regard to the fit above some generic comments:
Drone Damage Amplifier II - more than 3 is stupid - just put 3 DDA in lows plus tank or the new drone modules Drone Link Augmentor II - 6 gives you 200km or so drone control range ? really ? stick to four of those stick a tractor or remote rep module or cloak in the spare slots Omnidirectional Tracking Link II, Optimal Range Script you can probably add one or two more of these but use tracking scripts Large Capacitor Control Circuit three ? what for? what is going to use all that cap?

Typhoon fleet or rattlesnake is your two best options. Cruise torps and sentries. On the rattlesnake use thermal missiles because of the bonus, they'll outperform EM missiles. You should be getting just over 1k dps on either even with just T1 launchers and faction drones. Range you'll be looking at around 75km so use a MJD. Don't need a ton of tank at that range but fit a standard 3 module tank(xl shield booster + EM and therm resist) with maybe an EM rig. Use a rigor and flare rig and mount a TP and some omnidirectionals for range for the curators.
The fleet phoon you can armor tank too if you wanted. Use a reactive armor hardener. |

An alternative to the cruise+sentries would be HML + Heavy drones. You'd need more tank though and won't be as safe as the sentry option. |

Expensive is not a problem, so geckos will do more dmg than amarr drones even tough amarr ones are em |

I'm not so sure about that... I guess it depends on your drone skills though.
2 Imperial Navy Praetor do 215 em dps. 1 gecko does 65.6 em dps, and 196.8 "other" dps. (em damage x damage modifier x number of drones for 50 bandwidth). So straight up geckos do more damage, but most of that isn't being shot into the resist holes. Now it's hard to say if one is truly better than the other without having the resistance profiles of the npc's in particular, but I'm going to wager that the Praetor will do more damage to the sansha rats than the gecko will. Now geckos do have an advantage in that they have better tracking.
Were geckos really shine is if you are going up against omni tanked ships, so pvp, incursions, sleepers, etc. Of course you're more likely to lose them there, so there is that.
Note: I just used the compare tool to find these numbers, not sure if that takes into consideration skills or not? I'm never sure with drones  |

Just some thoughts to put out.
Rattle with it's Thermal and Kinetic damage lock on the missiles / torps may not be the best for Sansha since your primary damage output should be EM.
Others have covered the Domi etc, so how about one of the Amarr BS, the Paladin or maybe a laser fit Nightmare. All of them can be armor tanked which is better for sansha and the lasers with the high EM damage would be good as well. |

No such thing as "the best", but I'd say probably paladin. They do high dps of the type needed, immune to the tracking disruption that sansha do, and able to loot/salvage as you go.
Of course I've also heard the night mare can be beastly vs sansha.
Both are expensive of course, so I'd personally go with the domi as being "the best". |

Eh I'm partial to the domi because I prefer using sentries as opposed to heavies. Since with ishtars a lot of the tank comes from speed tank, sentries don't mesh well.
Domi's also lend themselves better to armor tanking than ishtars (7 lows vs 6 and 3 rigs vs 2), and the t2 resists aren't in EM, so doesn't help much with tanking.
So more or less, I feel that the domi tanks it better (and thus you can safely include more damage/application mods), and it meshes with my pve style better. |

How to fit any of them depends on how you prefer to run missions etc. What works for a long range fit would not for a medium or short range fit, what works up close will not work well at longer ranges. So this comes back to you, what range do you want to work at? |

That's pretty easy. Dominix is for sentries, dominix navy issue is for hybrids with some sentries. If you have good hybrid skills, go navy issue. If you're banking mostly on sentries, go regular issue. Not using hybrids also has the advantage of not needing ammo, so depending on were you are in null, this may be a good thing or neutral. |

Basically:
If what you shoot at is big slow and in reasonable range the Navy has far more DPS.
If what you shoot at tends to be small. fast or a long way away the normal Domi has far better damage application. |

Ishtar http://kb.su-eve.ru/kill/2051652/ window was hanging up due undock, i did not mark it, as were chatting in other :-) Old version of fit, but instead of 1 med NEW Ishtar got 1 low. Use it for "tank" or "tracking" for drones. Lock 100km, dps around 600-650. Tank is enough if you choose resist up to NPC damage.
For ratting more and more ppl choosed Barghest. High DPS with very high applying speed.
Rattlesnake will claim you both drones and missiles. Training is |

Aren't nightmares pretty cheap these days? Cheaper than a navy hull for sure. Problem with Sanshas will be mass tracking disruption - I suspect that as usual a proper tanked Ishtar with 5 Praetors or 2 Geckos and a Praetor will be the simplest option. Full skills will give you close to 700 DPS with Praetors; more with geckos, with near perfect application and zero fucks given for TD.

You just need to train up your drone skills more and get Gallente Cruiser to 5.
Max skills on a VNI will net you around 800+ dps with 2 geckos, 2 Hammerhead II, and 1 Hob II.
Hell, 5 maxed skill Praetor IIs will get you over 700. |
