Ryum852	Posted - 2007.07.22 05:16:00 - [1] It seems to add so much, and for only 1 eng every 30 secs.. Yet I rarely see it in the builds I read. It would seem to me this would be a must have in just bout any ship that could fit it. Unless I am missing something vital, bout this mod or something much better is out there and I don't know what it is.
Andre Ricard Gallente Templars of Space Sparta Alliance	Posted - 2007.07.22 05:27:00 - [2] I have one on 99% of my setups
Zaqar	Posted - 2007.07.22 05:29:00 - [3] Yeah its a very useful mod, with no stacking penalty either. Probably the reason you don't see them in the setups you read is because most people on this forum have absolutely no idea what they're doing.
Deschenus Maximus Amarr Digital Fury Corporation Digital Renegades	Posted - 2007.07.22 05:32:00 - [4] Speed fits and shield tanks can usually bipass it, though why someone would not fit one on an armour tank is beyond me.
Corwain Gallente Kamite	Posted - 2007.07.22 05:36:00 - [5] Nearly every armor tanked BS stives to fit 2x EANMII+DCII Was basically the whole thing behind the Megathron fitting issues thread murder one posted a while back. -- A Solo Arbitrator vid, Distortion by Corwain
Ryum852	Posted - 2007.07.22 05:42:00 - [6] What would be the point in putting a second dmg ctrl in? I thought only one could run at a time

I thought only one could run at a time He meant two EANMs and a DCII, and yes, you can only run one at a time *☼☼☼ Don't even THINK about it rookie...I have all my capacitor and more hit points than you can POSSIBLY imagine. ☼☼☼*

Ryum852	Posted - 2007.07.22 06:42:00 - [9] was commenting on the "lack of stacking penalty" hehe thanks for the info
Msobe	Posted - 2007.07.22 07:02:00 - [10] When they say it doesn't suffer stacking penalty, that means it stacks without penalty with other mods that give resists . .. hardener, eanms, etc. Which is a damn cool thing about them. Course it can't stack with itself, since you can only have one.
Xonkra Gallente	Posted - 2007.07.22 07:26:00 - [11] Originally by: Andre Ricard I have one on 99% of my setups i heard dark shikari fits one one his shuttles to make it tank well Originally by: Illyria Ambri No matter how you want to say it.. it always sounds like frog clearing throat "Ve zurrendur, dunt schuut"

Course it can't stack with itself, since you can only have one. thanks for explaing that nuance of how resist work I had no idea. so a dmg ctrl + inuln field would stack together fully? Seems to be the best all-round mod to go with this universal resist mod
Hannobaal Gallente Dragonfire Intergalactic Crusaders of Krom Dark Matter Coalition	Posted - 2007.07.22 07:41:00 - [13] I'm pretty sure it does get stacking penalties like any other module when it comes to resists. ------------------

You must have never used DCs then, it seems. Everybody who actually uses them knows they're exempt from (resist) stack-nerfs. Originally by: Ryum852 thanks for explaing that nuance of how resist work I had no idea. so a dmg ctrl + inuln field would stack together fully? Seems to be the best all-round mod to go with this universal resist mod If you're only looking at resists and nothing else (like, for instance, on builds that rely on remote repairing, or on builds that rely on massive hitpoints instead of repair rate), yes, indeed, a DC is a must-have, even for shield tankers. However, if you take into acount everything, overall, you're usually better off with either an extra PDU/SPR than a DC on shield-tanking ships.

They are specially usefull for shield tankers.Since they are a low slot module that increased a tank based on mid slots. If brute force doesn't solve your problem... you are not using enough
Lunara Yoshi Umbra Congregatio Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.07.22 11:15:00 - [18] The thing is you need to remember that a damage control gives the lowest resistance increases for any skilled tanker BUT it gives the 50+% res on hull. Now most frigates don't even care about a tank and would rather fit a good passive mod or more speed/plate/dmg mod. For anything bigger and not speed tanked it should be standard issue usually unless you're very specced (that 99% thing comes close )
Rossarian	Posted - 2007.07.22 11:17:00 - [19] I know people who don't fit them either. The problem is usually that these people do not understand the concept of effective hitpoints, or don't realize what stacking penalty does to EANMs (You would not believe how many people also think that active and passive hardeners are not stacking nerfed together... ). I tried to educate them. Some are responsive, but with some it is like talking to a brick wall so I stopped bothering.

They are specially usefull for shield tankers.Since they are a low slot module that increased a tank based on mid slots. qtf, low slot modules supporting shieldtanks = win. I know, and I agree. All my shield tanked ships have a DC. But quite a few pilots don't fit one because of a number of different reasons.
Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2007.07.22 13:30:00 - [23] In case of an active shield tanker, in case you already have a perma-tank (that also applies to perma-tank attempts under enemy incoming NOS), indeed, a DC is advisable. Same if you use injectors, again, a DC is advisable. However, if you are pretty far from an active perma-tank, the farther away you are, the less useful a DC is compared to, say, a PDU for instance. Reason is simple... a T2 DC gives you a flat -12.5% reduction to damage dealt to shields, in other words you tank aproximately +14.2857% damage. Now, adding a PDU-II for instance adds not only +14.754% to capacitor recharge rate (and hence the same percentage of tankable damage), but also the same percentage of boost to the shield recharge rate... overall, you tank at least 15% more damage in the long run, probably more. If you're a passive shield tanker, a single SPR-II (or Beta Reactor SPR) will increase your tankable damage by more than 31.5%, which is quite clearly MUCH better as a DC. In the end, unless you're subjected to massive amounts of incoming DPS above your tank level, it is usually better even after you take the other resists granted by the DC into account. Basically, AS A SHIELD TANKER, you want to have a DC every time you know you're in grave danger of dying before you can exhaust your capacitor reserves (i.e. heavy incoming DPS)... and you never want a DC when you know the incoming DPS is roughly the same order of magnitude as your tank.

Elhina Novae Amarr Ranyhyn	Posted - 2007.07.22 15:53:00 - [24] Sure EANM is good... But when you use 2x EANM2 there isno point in using a third since a DCII would help more since it doesn't suffer the stacking penalties Somebody set up us the bomb
Stakhanov kleptomaniacs	Posted - 2007.07.22 16:27:00 - [25] DC is the most useful module for gallente ships (thanks to our uber structure) especially in PvP where the hitpoint buffer matters the most. If you have only one resist slot , an EANM is better if you're active tanking , or have lots of plates. Of course , DC isn't as useful if you have a nano setup.
