Be warned on the gallente epic arc, i have seen a proper fitted kronos tank melt in bastion in the mission before the last. Either it was bugged or the damage is totally evil.

I sadly have to admit you are right. I am on that mission "Showtime" now and there is no way I can do that with my current ship or skills :(

Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Yeah your going to need a friend, or if they have similar SP possibly two.

Things that keep me up at night;  Why do we use a voice communication device to send telegraphs? Moore's Law should state, Once you have paid off the last PC upgrade you will need another.

Burst tank should last for a couple minutes at most and only if you have enough DPS to clear the heavys from a room within two to three times that amount of time. After you got rid of the heavy stuff you won't need much of a tank and only top up when you are heading for a gate or whatever.

But in answer to your cap stable tank;

[Maelstrom, tank]

8x 800mm Repeating Cannon II (Hail L)

Gist C-Type X-Large Shield Booster
Shield Boost Amplifier II
2x Adaptive Invulnerability Field II
EM Ward Field II
Cap Recharger II

Damage Control II
3x Gyrostabilizer II
Capacitor Power Relay II

Large Capacitor Control Circuit I
2x Large Capacitor Control Circuit II

5x Warrior II
5x Valkyrie II
5x Warrior II

[Statistics - Goldiiee]

Effective HP: 74,526 (Eve: 61,735)
Tank Ability: 921.68 DPS
Damage Profile - (EM: 25.00%, Ex: 25.00%, Ki: 25.00%, Th: 25.00%)
Shield Resists - EM: 75.87%, Ex: 77.36%, Ki: 72.83%, Th: 63.78%
Armor Resists - EM: 66.00%, Ex: 23.50%, Ki: 36.25%, Th: 44.75%

Capacitor (Stable at 49.00%)

Volley Damage: 3,494.96
DPS: 1,056.43

So yes (for around 800mil) it is possible to get a permanent 900+ dps tank while doing 1000 dps damage. But ideally you will find (Once fully trained) that Gank can be more helpful in missions than Tank.

BTW I would not want to fly a maelstrom without an AB or MWD, but dropping the cap recharger and adding a AB gives you 22m44s capacitor.


Wow that's way overtanked. I have a CNR with the same mid slot setup, no DC in the lows and I can just sit there and take full room aggro. The CNR doesn't have the Maelstroms 35% shield boost bonus!

Replace one of the hardeners, SBA, Cap recharger, with 2 tracking computers and a AB. From my experience the only reason I could see tanking like that is if you're on some really bad internet connection. That's why I have my CNR setup like that.

Of course it's your ship so fit it how you wish but the 2 tracking computers and AB would help you greatly.

Yeah I misread the OP and thought he wanted to know how to set up a perma tank.
