Without knowing what you want to use it for. A fitting can not be suggested.

No weapons in the highs is not suggested.

it looks like you're trying to set up a passive tank on that gila. From what i remember, passive tanks on Cruisers tend to fail because they can't generate a high enough base shield HP... Im guessing thats why you have fit 2 LSE's and no weapons.
Arguably, the drones are the weapons, but you're still missing out on a sizeable chunk of your dps w/o missiles.

Also, your lows are all DDA's, which means you haven't fit the Shield power relay mod that is a very important component of a workable passive tank.

So, it would seem if you want to passive tank your Gila, you'll need to sacrifice basically all of your DPS potential save the two super-medium drones you'll be able to fly.

If you're doing low-end Anoms or missions, I suppose this would work. If you're looking to do high end anoms or lvl 4's this is going to be a chore to kill most of the big stuff.

If its for PvP... lets hope you have a lot of logi keeping you alive

im doing forsaken hubs.. dont even have to worry about tank. orbit tractor and turn on AB and watch everything die..well not watch. hence my question since my tank is fine with the the third resist i was gonna drop it

edit: forgot to mention the passive tank works because im speed tanking. BS tend to have issues hitting small fast moving targets. when the frigs spawn and web me i take a little more damage for a few secs then drones pop them and im fine.

Well you could add rapid light launchers and kill small web things faster. More DPS never hurts.

Use a Tornado with arty.

Warp in at 100k and win.

Anoms are about the escalation and the random rare faction drop.

I'd go with a Drone Navigation Computer to reduce the drones travel time. Although you may want to try around a bit - it doesn't help if the drones are out-tracking themselves. I'd also recommend using two drones. :P

The gila can almost tank god!

4x RLML

3x LSE II
Explosive Deflection Field II
Adaptive Invulnerability Field II
10mn AB II

3x Shield Power Relay II

3x Medium Core Defense Field Purger II

versus angels this gets a 810 DPS tank

if you discover this is a bit too tanky
- Swap 1 SPR II for a DDA II
- Swap 1 LSE for an Omnidirectional + script
- Swap another SPR for a 2nd DDA II

with the AB the gila moves at 666m/s which mitigates a lot of incoming damage anyway

nb
fyi with 2 DDA's & 1 OTR II + Script the tank drops to around 350 DPS
