1x maybe 2x LArmor Rep (more than likely will need a CoProc instead), 3x Hardeners, 2x EAMN, and 1 DCU
Course that is a relatively extreme resist tank for a BS.

Shields have an active mod that boosts all resists (invul. field), but don't have a passive mod that boosts them.
Armor have a passive mod that boosts all resists (EANM), but don't have an active mod.
All I can say is, "WTF!". That always chapped my ass and now I have got it off my chest.
And shields are STILL better than armor in nearly every way. Go figure.
- Invuln fields are STILL far better than EANM IIs WITH SKILLS (meaning levels 4 or 5 in ALL 4 armor comp skills).
- Shields have passive recahrge (in some cases, GODLY passive recharge)
- Much faster active recharge (granted, using more cap, but they seem to manage just fine while out-tanking every armor tanker in existence)
- Rigs that don't have as severe a drawback (on BSes and BCs for sure... armor rigs are unusable on frigates, and are dangerous for use on Minmatar armor tanked ships and possibly some other speed-needy armor tankers)
- Shield extenders are essentially multifunctional (improving the tank's HP as well as regen); while not having a negative effect on the ship's agility (as opposed to armor plates, which kill agility, and do nothing for repping ability). While these negatively effect frigs and cruisers, they do little to BCs and BSes.
etc...
Shield tanking is better then armor tanking and yet many perfer armor tank in pvp, wonder why.
Don't just look at pure numbers and claim shield tanking is better, it's more complicated then that...
Crystal-Slave, that way?

shield tanking is better pve but not often for pvp because shield tank takes up mid slots where ewar can go. shield tank is vetter pve because armor take up lows that can be used for damage mods.

2 EANM II + DCU II > Three T2 Hardeners tbfh and here's reasons
1. Fitting
2. Hull Resists (Hull on Abaddon is like 10k fyi)
3. Nos proof
4. Drunk proof, can't forget to turn them on (Xcept the DCU OFC!)
