NanoZealot ftw
4x heavy pulse
MWD, scram, LCB
MAR, 2x HS, OD, Istab, 2x CPR
2x polycarbs
It's easy to solo a BS. Hitting cruisers can be tough. Either slow down or divebomb them. You can also own kiting inties if you manual pilot.

I killed a zealot In my dual rep tanked hurricane. Never went below 85-90% armor and only used 1 rep and no injector charges.
Not a solo ship, but decent gang ship (tbh i think a harby does better)
If you fly one, Nano it, Fit beams or pulses w/ scortch and stay out of web/nos/nuet range.

Repackage and buy a Sac.
Or at least buy both, fly them for a while and get the taste of each ship.

True-ish if you've got the missile skills to make the sac good, but if not. . .

Fly sac or harbinger. Zealot is broken currently, it's t1 younger sibling (omen) does more dps :(
The sad part is, Zealot is supposed to be Amarr's damage hac while sac is supposed to be the tanking one... but the sac out tanks and out damages the zealot every time.
CCP's current solution is to give the Zealot a drone bay (cause that's the Amarr way right?) instead of another turret which might help it somewhat. |

Zealot is a bad azz ship, just not a solo one....
They are making it a pain in the arse by adding drones. Its a great ship for quick dmg. And imo its better then the harbi due to its quickness.
Sac is good, but dont let anyone fool you into thinking a missle boat is a better gang ship....Solo sure, but a Curse is better then both combined...

The SAC is a good ship. I have 4 T2 Heavy Pulse Lasers and One Dark Blood Laser Beam. Tank is excellent with T2 Armor Resists. Meds are Cap Chargers and CPU Tracking and AB. Use Heavy Missiles with XR-3200 Launchers. Breezes through level 3 missions. And hold its own in gang lvl 4 missions. Use three nasty Drones to add additional damage. Bellator SPQR.

Oh come on!
"What category would you like?"
"Cruel jokes CCP play on Amarr, Please"
"ok, for 20 Points, it is built almost exclusively as a laser platform, designed to wreak as much havoc as its energy beams can be made to. As a vanguard vessel, its thick armor and dazzling destructive power make it capable of cutting through enemy fleets with striking ease."
"Erm...what is a Zealot?"
"Correct!"

This may have something to do with the mid-80 EM resist on a single EANMII/DCII tank on a hurricane, especially if he was using scorch M which is very, very EM heavy.
Seriously though the fact that the omen outdamages the zealot (via missile and drone bay) is laughable. It could really use a fifth turret; I think the only HAC it outdamages right now is the Eagle (lol)

This is the most depressing thread I've ever read on these forums.
I can remember training for the zealot when people were afraid of it (long time ago)
Not that anyone here is wrong, it sucks at the minute  |

Yeah, Zealot is fine, unless you're fighting other Amarr, Caldari, Minmatar or Galente smart enough to use webber drones.

Omen does not do more damage than a zealot.
Try fitting 4x Heavy Pulse II on an Omen as opposed to 4x Heavy Pulse II on a zealot along with other mods. Not to mention the Zealot gets a second damage bonus (the omen only gets one) along with a Range bonus so you can start shooting sooner (Range bonus doesn't matter if the fight already starts within range though).
The zealot is crappy because the Harbinger exists. The Harbinger outperforms it in every way. Especially in cost effectiveness as a pulse boat. Only thing the Zealot can do better is snipe because of the range bonus...but sniping with a cruiser (especially with lasers and their fitting problems) is not so much fun =P
