Ehm. The first thought I have is that ACR IIs cost 90mil each and can't possibly be worth whatever you're trying to do with the fit.

Your choice of rigs would make it seem that you should spend more time playing and less time EFT warrioring.

Medium shield extenders on cruisers are jokes , and the mwd is unnecessary for pvp which means you don't need t2 acrs or acrs at all

My original thought was that I wanted to get out of range of the rats as quickly as possible so I used a micro warp drive, but perhaps an afterburner will suffice. I am not sure if the shield support unit will boost the shield repper I can't really tell from the modules description.
Yes I suppose I am "Eft warrioring" It seems wiser to explore my fitting options instead of tossing a ton of isk on modules of dubious value and loosing the ship and modules due to poor design.
This is a PVE kiteing ship, if something goes wrong warp out rep the shield's and come back. Ideally i will never take much damage.
Thanx all for your time and advice.
Oh, here is a link to my toon http://eveboard.com/pilot/Candy_Clark
All of my progress with gunnrey,fitting,and other skills have been put off due to the upcoming skill split once I have bc to 5 I will be getting back on track, it's been frustrating not improving my other skills for so long but I hope the reward will be worth it.

Sniper is about keeping max range and dps in optimal so fast interceptors have trouble or huge distances to travel for getting you while delivering the last shot before enter warp, just try something like this :

Drones are there only to get you rid of some pesky cloaky trying to mess with you.

Your DPS in optimal with Spike is 221 - optimal distance 84+25

Your higher DPS with Javelin is 387 - Optimal is12+25

Your DPS with faction anti matter is 382 and Optimal is 23+25 which is slightly higher distance but no benefit from the +25% tracking of T2 ammo on top of ship tracking bonus, you should be able to hit fast ships unless under guns (U use then either ecm drones or dps ones with T2 short range ammo)

Lock time for frigate 4 seconds, base speed with AB on 735m/s -capacitor lasts 14 min 24s

You might want to add dps implants, speed/agility or tracking/optimal combat boosters, off grid or on grid (like real men instead of risk averse pussies) gang/fleet boosting

If you want to solo snipe small stuff this rax fit is not really what I'd have in mind, I'll give you another one I like but I'm not sure you can use it thou.

Well, this thing works a bit different. Rax will use dps to kill stuff, arty is alpha. If something you're shooting with your rax can warp fast you'll only put a shot on it but not kill it (low alpha), with this "thing" here you get:

Targeting time for frigate: 2.7S
Targeting time for Destroyer: 2S
Targeting time for frigate running MWD: 1.7 Sec

1537 alpha at 79+46 with Tremor

1809 alpha at 44+46 with RF Depleted Uranium

2713 alpha at 22+46 with RF EMP

2752 alpha at 11+46 with Quake

The number of frigs you can kill with this "thing" on a single shot is huge from ceptors to bombers and some dictors
You might want to add dps implants, speed/agility or tracking/optimal combat boosters, off grid or on grid gang/fleet boosting

Hes talking about Pve, basically, if this is for L2 missions, your afterburner + medium shield booster fit will get it done, you dont need to keep range in L2s just go for them, and change your shield boost amplifier to an adaptive invulnerability field.
