hello,
i just went through the usual databases and they state that EoM ships (those amarr type guys with blue or light brown hull paintings) do thermal and KINETIC damage (with their lasers).
is kinetic correct?

I'm pretty sure they actually use railguns.

Yes, they do kinetic and thermal damage, but they don't use lasers. They use railguns and missiles. They also shield tank instead of armor tanking, if that wasn't obvious.
The fact that they drop lasers as loot I can only imagine happens because the NPC loot tables must be based on the hull type (Amarr) and not on the faction.

I tanked the entire spawn with a Nighthawk with 90% kinetic and something like 10% EM resistance 
So yes, its definetly kinetic (and thermal).

Yes their main damage is Kinetic, and as secondary they do Thermal.
Your Damage have to be Kinetic to do decent damage to them.

Yes, they are shield-tanked Amarr ships firing kinetic missiles and using railguns. Maybe this was supposed to throw you? They don't use any EW at all, however, and as far as I've seen don't have any HACs, so they are pretty easy. With the caveat that they are only easy if you use a mission database and know the triggers for the respawns.
It might also be worth mentioning that the loot is HUGE for these rats, and the salvage is bigger - at least half of them drop metal scraps as salvage (there is some decent stuff too, though), and at least half of the loot cans contain cap booster charges. So if you intend to sweep an EOM level 4 clean of loot and salvage, you will need an industrial - last time I did this it was around 2800m3. Your salvage destroyer will not cut it for this one!
On the upside, all EOM rats have loot. Guesswork; bounties + loot + salvage for level 4 Gone Berserk is around 20 million.

Ahh, Gone Berserk. One of the main reasons I put together an exequror for salvaging - up to 2k m3, 2 salvagers and 2 tractors, top speed around 1km/s with sustainable MWD.
