Just thought i'd post my supertanker =P

MED Pith A-Type Large Shield Booster Shield Boost Amplifier II Hardener II Hardener II Hardener II Hardener II
LOW Power Diagnostic System II Power Diagnostic System II Power Diagnostic System II Power Diagnostic System II Power Diagnostic System II
RIGS Capacitor Control Circuit I Capacitor Control Circuit I Your choice here. Boost cycle / Tracking speed / RoF maybe
DRONES 4x Heavy or 10 Medium or Mix of Medium & Light (you could even go with web drones if you like blowing things up with big nasty cannons )
With my current skills this baby boosts for approx. 513.5 shield hp every 3.2 seconds... Its all sustainable forever...
And yes, i know faction mods are expensive... but you'll be making this back fast. If you used a normal Large Shield Booster II, you'd end up with approx. 395 shield hp every 4 seconds..
Tank would be even better if i could afford X-type booster

this setup was ment for people not being raven *****s...
most people fit XL boosters to tank larger amounts of damage, and yes.. you could do that here too.. but you will need to use it manually or fit cap boosters to keep it going... With this setup you're tanking like 2xLARII, which is enough on most missions, with no need for cap boosters.
Keep in mind that this is a minmatar ship.. We have generally weaker tanks than every other race out there...

I use this on my Maelstorm for missions:
HIGH 8 x 800mm Repetaing Artillery II
MED Gist X-type 100MN afterburner Gist B-type X-large Shield Booster Dread Gurista Inv. Field Dread Gurista Shield Boost Amplifier Gist X-type Active Hardener Gist X-type Active Hardener
LOW Damage Control System II Power Diagnostic System II 3x Domination Gyrostabilizer
RIGS 3 Capacitor Control Circuit I
I boost 1069 shield / 4 sec for 172 cap; I can run the booster for a very long time, but not forever. The resists are pretty good though so I don't need to run it that much anyway (switching a Gyrostab for another PDS might let everything run 24/7).
The 800s rip BS & Crusiers apart just fine and I carry a mix of medium and light drones to take out the frigs.
Works like a charm.
If actually bothered to get some shield implants (perhaps a crystal set? :) I'd even dare to call it a supertank. :-)
PS: Credit to Zarks for the setup really. Thnx mate!

Problem I see with the original posters set up is trying to do a lvl 4 Angel Extrav. He'll never get out of the first pocket. Sure he may tank it but he'll never kill the angel vipers or webbifiers. The NPC BS are right on top of you and the 1400's will be firing a long time to kill them. I use 5x 1400's and 3x cruise. Also use light drones instead of heavies. While super thank is nice I get by quite nicely with a T2 extra large booster, cap booster and 4 mission specific hardners. Rigs have 3x core defense purgers

I use 1200mm and AC's too if needed. My drones also vary.
Also, my tank can run forever... once you're out of booster charges yours cant =P
I also have 1 rig i can change, depending on which mission im at. dmg, tracking, boost cycle, boost activation cost... whatever..

That's what the drones are for. I've done Angel Extravaganza in a Tempest with 1400mms and some medium drones. And its tank was nowhere like a Maelstroms tank, but not like you need that much of a hardcore tank anyway when you are sniping stuff from 90km. The majority of the NPCs can't deal damage past 60km.

argh 
this will take ages to do missions where opponents are not 100km away...
i alredy see swarm of ships orbiting around with just drones to take them out...
tank can be good... but real dps will be quite crap 1400 with no gyro and bad tracking... no web and not even ab to try to keep a bit of range....

Unfortunately, rather than address the slot layout/tanking issues for Minmatar the Devs have simple declared that it makes us "versitile".

Problem with AE is you are aggro'd and webbed right off the bat and using drones will trigger aggro from the rest of the mob (which ain't pretty) When I do Pirate Slaughter, last pocket, I simply cruise out to 100k and then open up. Don't even have to run the booster.

Win setup tbh. Don't need all that much faction gear though, and webber would be useful... very useful.... webdrones do fine too though :)

Swap some of those PDS IIs for Gyro IIs, you don't have to tank wrecks.
