Looks solid, I wish I had gone Minmatar at some point. I probably will just so I can get into one of those.

Lows are all cargo expanders, rigs are all cargohold optimization.

I hadn't thought that Invuln IIs had that much stopping power, but I guess so. What?


LOLWUT!

Fitting tank modules with anti-tank modules? Seriously? That is sooooooo noobish. But you're right to assume that the invulnerability mods do have a lot of stopping power regardless of the penalties they give for fitting more than one. However, it's ill-advised to fit shield rechargers on a Hulk due to the minuscule amount of HP they can only restore compared to the high alpha that a battlecruiser can dish out. Adding a buffer with the resistance goes a longer way by comparison. But it's absolutely stupid for a miner to fit a shield tank with cargohold upgrades as that only weakens the structure HP and therefore exposing the Hulk to greater danger. That miner was lucky to be alive.

Of course, some miner use such fits to mitigate damage from the local belt rats (which do absolutely no damage) but they can quickly forget that rats are the least of their concerns right now. And now that Hulkageddon is around the corner, tears will be had.

At any rate, it stopped my Brutix, which is pretty nearly optimized. I think the only thing I'm missing is Med. Blaster Spec. 4 instead of 5.

I'd rather not wait until Hulkageddon to pop this guy and his cadre though, hence why I'm looking for assistance.

Had to go back and pick on the same one, he was already halfway through armor. The kill is up on Battleclinic - I can't remember if you're allowed to post links to it or not. He fits cargo extender IIs.

Still five up for grabs though.

Don't worry I haven't forgotten about you. Still skilling up. I can fly a Thrasher now decently. I can probably fly a Brutix too but not that well. My not-so-good T1 Brutix, along with your optimized Brutix can probably take down these tanked Hulks, yea? Contact me this weekend, I should be on.
