Dear Carebears,

I have solved all of your gank problems. You absolutely NEVER have to worry about losing a ship again. This fit will save your hulk every time, and only requires one PG implant to fit.

My fit is this...

1x MN Afterburner II
1x EM Ward FIeld II
1x Kinetic Deflection Field II
1x Thermic Dissipation field II

1x 400mm Reinforced Rolled Tungsten Plates I
1x Damage Control II

1x Medium Trimark Armor Pump II
1x Medium Core Defense Field Purger II

Rest assured, this sig tanks AND armor tanks AND shield tanks. You can send 5 mil isk for every hulk you fit like this for using my idea. Thanks!

I just couldnt wait for another hulk tank thread! THIS IS AWESOME. I cant wait for the next new topic in reply to this one.
I sure wish CCP forums would let people reply to the same threads more than once though.

This however goes in against the natural greed of the average person, they would rather have 1 warp core stab and 3 cargo extenders.

What is the EHP on this fit? Curious to know, don't have any EFT on this laptop. Triple tank kinda has a thing going for it now.

22,000 ehp.

It has an AB though, so it's made more for sig tanking. You have to orbit those asteroids while you use the mining drones.

Now i just fit some neuts in the tops and have epix drone dps and I can have a BATTLE HULK HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Oh for sure that will make all the difference in the world. I never use my many free mid slots for target painters/webs/etc Roll

Yep, it is perfectly safe, you'll never need to undock as it can't do anything without the mining lasers.
22k ehp or so?

1/10 for the AB

Most hulk gankers use high alpha fits, high alpha means less tracking and more range, which means sig tank is best tank.

THe Hulk is a shield tank.

Secondly Orca's and Freighters get ganked in high-sec.

Third, to be honest this is a terrible tank.

Oh and gankers who gate camp consider range.
Gankers who take out someone in a belt are at point blank range.

22k ehp.... Im afraid thats not enough not even without hulkageddeon.

nados shoves out 11k a volley and they can shove out three vollies in a 0.5 system.

Which is why I don't use high alpha. I head to 0.5 systems where me and a buddy or two use our thrashers with *shockface* autocannons. We all overheat, and it works great.

High alpha is for salvo fire in nullsec on the enemy carrier, or for ganking someone's hauler/freighter. It's overkill for a hulk, unless you're doing it solo (in which case get friends).

I can pull more EHP than that out of the Hulk. But I'm not gonna post the figures here for all to see. It won't even require T2 rigs.

Wow. Fail. "Ultra Tank Hulk?"
22K EHP is a joke. It took me less than 2 minutes on EFT to dope out a Hulk fit that has over 30K.

Selinate, I thought your stupidity was limited to political Out of Pod topics, but I was wrong.

Ha ha, look at the braindead liberal.

Actually, it's only a shield tanker when you fit it to survive null-sec rats. But in high-sec, where every little EHP counts when it comes to surviving alpha damage or dps from a suicide ganker, mixed tank is best tank. The OP is correct to assume signature radius plays a role in mitigating damage taken, but it's marginal at best and not always reliable.

But you are correct about the range of certain gankers.
