The raw DPS of an Absolution is similar to the Sleipnir (a quick check gave me 618,6 DPS from guns only with 2x heat sinks). The Sleipnir does 617,2 DPS (220mm Vulcan Autocannon II, 2x gyrostabilizers) The problem is the omni tank, and that's something we want to look into.
No it's not only the omni tank, if you say it's similar DPS then please consider the following as well;
-Sleip uses 0 cap for it's weapons leaving 18 cap/s at peak recharge -Abso uses 13 cap/s for it's weapons leaving only 5 cap/s at peak recharge
Does this seem to be similar cap left to tank/ew as the sleip? If not then why would it be "fair" to have comparable DPS?
Yes omni tanks ARE part of the problem (actually the real problem is innate resitances, it's that shield tanks aren't popular otherwise minmatar would have similar issues (but then again they can just use another ammo type)). One solution would be to nerf omni tanks but really an easier solution would be to increase DPS of lasers.
But this wouldn't change the fact that amarr laser ships have significantly less cap/s to use then the other ships with absolutely 0 advantages.
I still think that the root of the problem is omni tanking and high natural EM resistances.
That looks to be the solution, Nerf the amarr tanks!
A harbinger 7 heavy modulated beam (Equal to t2 heavy beam lasers, but less fitting and costs more) G or M Crystals Cap booster, Webber and disruptor 2x t2 Energized adaptive nano membranes 2x t2 active hardeners T2 medium armor rep Last low is Rcu or Heatsink
Rigs: T1 grid rig. 2x t1 cap recharger rigs. I fit 2 cap recharger rigs on almost any amarr ship to compansate for the fact that it is amarr. Buildcost 130 million isk?
VS
A drake, the caldari battlecruiser equal to the harbinger. A passive tanked drake rigged, fitted a large shield and some t1 missile launchers.
Who do win? The drake as my dps is lower then his passive recharge rate peak, not to mention his 30000 shields or something. But yea i see the problem with the amarr tank
