ThatÆs saved me a lot of times. One of the major advantages of passive tanks is not worrying about running out of cap during a CTD or worrying about that shield booster/armour repairer activating due to lag.
No matter how laggy it gets you can do missions as a passive tank and not worry. That and with it being so much tougher then an amour tank on a Myrmidon why not passive tank?

ôYou know that if you have your reps running and you ctd they keep going right? Thats saved me plenty of times.ö
Only if you got the cap to keep them running and only if the lags not bad and they turned on. Also the amour repairers are much weaker as tanks go. You need about 4 to 5 ish amour repairers to equal the HP regen a passive tank has and 5 ish amour repairers donÆt run none stop if you crash out.

ônow you're just talking bollox
we/I know how much you lub your passive shield tank, but there is no reason to lie about how to armor tank "correctly"....
Yeah youÆre right I was speaking bullocks. Its not 5x more itÆs 12x more HP regen as a passive tank. My passive tank has 618.6 HP/s regen. So if an amour repairer is what 50HP/s? ItÆs a lot more then x5. Thats 618.6 with T2 modules, no T2 rigs or officer HP Related modules.

Amour taking sucks for PvE I donÆt know why anyone does on this any other Gallante ships.

ôJust curious, why are you guys shield tanking a Gallente ship.ö
Its much stronger then amour tanking. As you can see I have x8 to x12 more HP regen as a shield tanker then amour tanking depending on setup. Gallente also invented passive shield tanking so why shouldnÆt they use it?
For those wondering I have T1 purgers. A Dread Invul field as I donÆt own any T2. I didnÆt have a Vulture do gang assist if I did resistance would be higher.
Caps not a problem if you donÆt use turrets but it will run out over time if you donÆt have 1 Nos. If you use turrets, need more cap or want a 24/7 tank setup swap 2 or 3 relays for 2 or 3 PDS. Normally I do PDS and skip Nos.
With 7 relays you have 2.54 cap regen but a 8.3 cap drain unless another ship does gang assist then your cap drain goes down to 3.3.
I used to use drones for damage but have just started this week using railguns as a secondary weapons this means using 3 PDS modules.

What resistance does a maxed out Vulture give? I only get 22.5% when I use the warfair link. I guess a Vulture would be higher but how much?

Toolivus why though? Is it because you prefer amour tanking even though its weaker? You donÆt have the shield skills? Something else?
Its fair enough if you want to amour tank. Do what you find most fun. Just wondering why.
