They are quite good in fact, i've used dual-ASB setups on Gallente BSs. General idea to fit is 2 large ASB + 2 resists in med slots and Anti-em/Anti-therm/Anti-kin rigs. Don't think that it'll help against neuts though (you'll need to run one or two cycle without boosters while other ASB is reloading). I beleave classic cap-boosted setup will be better at this.

Depends how lazy you feel like being. The minimum-effort counter to PvE neuts is to keep your current fit but add a cap booster, or if you're feeling ornery a cap booster and a cap battery, but if you're not worried about wasting cargo space an ASB fit should work just as well.

If whatever you're flying has a spare high slot you might stick a large vamp on there as well, depending on your exact situation that can balance out a lot of cap drain on its own.
