Crime & Punishment

Domi BCS are basically 23m each vs 108 for CN varients, in bastion the difference is 57 DPS for a cost of 265m. so you are fitting 324m of extra gank bait for 53 DPS, totally not worth it

Gist C's are about 220m atm, so 2x Gist C's invuns is about the same cost as 1 x CN invun. The addition of the A spec EM field gives you a solid omnitank for an extra 80 m. All told these three shields will cost you about 500m - little more than the price of one CN - and any ganker needs to weigh up the loot fairy gods might not drop them and they'd need to drop all 3 to pay for even 5 tornados.

Gist C type medium booster. With bastion bonus you absoloutely do not need a XL booster, a medium booster and a full crystal set gives you better results with the advantage is in hisec you have to be beyond dumb to lose your pod missioning, and unlike shiny modules your implants cant be looted.

So a C type med booster will run you about 89 m vs the 475m the XL and 77m your amp is costing you - another 463m stripped from the gankbait.

Domi afterburner - you really don't need deadspace, mauraders are slow as bricks.

Downgrading your booster means you can lose the cap recharger and cap rigs in favour of shield extenders, giving you much needed buffer against gankers. so here is the numbers with all crystal set, level 5's.

NON BASTION

1146 DPS (with drones), 7187 volley - out to 30K. (you can swap for cruises, but meh, golem is park and brawl in my book.
175 DPS passive shield regen, cap stable at 76 pc static, 48 percent stable with burner.
583 DPS booster running, cap stable at 48 percent. 11 mins 5 seconds with boost and afterburner.

resists:
81.2 EM. 77.9 therm, 80.8 kin, 81.6 explosive (57/64/44/23 armor resists).

Shield HP: 22,037, armor 8375, hull 9625 - effective EHP 152,962

WITH BASTION

1389 EHP Booster runing cap stable at 48 percent.

resists:
86.6 EM / 84.7 Th / 86.2 kin / 86.9 ex (69.6/74.9/60/45 armor)

effective EHP 213,779

Some thoughts
There is nothing especially expensive on this build:

500m hardeners
79 booster
60 BCS
88m launchers (22m vs 75m a piece for CN's)
25m burner

all told you are looking at maybe 600m - 650m in mods there, which given the upgrade in EHP needing more gank to take down makes you a loss-maker.

DISCLAIMER

I'm not saying this is the BEST WAY TO RUN A GOLEM. OR THE FASTEST. OR THE CHEAPEST.

the goal of this fit was to show how much money was wasted on Rainmans fit, and the fact you can get a more than needed overomni tank with lots of anti-gank buffer for much less money, while still being cap stable permaboosting.

With near 80 percent resists across the board, over 1000 dps even without bastion, i would consider this an absoloute top end shiny build for L4's.

Obviously this is with a couple of billion spent on a crystal set and top whack implants, and all skills at L5 - but you should really have the skills to fly a marauder, and spending the isk on implants is much safer than putting them on your ship.

you'd really only need the bastion boost to clear out heavy dps, after which 585 is more than plenty for most L4 missions. you'd probably want to take a mobile depot and rip the extender off in favour of another painter if you are running torps, or you could fit with cruises, and fit some decent missile implants to compensate for lack of rigs.

First of all, I see nothing wrong with fitting Deadspace / Faction mods. What else are you gonna spend the ISK on ? In case you don't know this, having "Bling" fits decreases the amount of time spent running missions and or Exploration sites.

In fact almost all of my ships are fit with Deadspace / Faction mods, including my Tech 1 Rifter.

Secondly posting Killmails is only allowed in Crime & Punishment Sub-Forum. Seems to me you're actually trolling the player who owned the ship (Kudos to RainMan for staying cool).

Anyway, OP reported.

Obviously you must be new in this sub-forum otherwise you'd know who the regulars are. Referring to me as a whining random carebear along with the other insinuations / personal attacks you directed towards me will only incite more reporting, especially since it's coming from some 'Johnny come lately" such as yourself..



DMC

Brilliant

Apparently not lol, he certainly took umbrage with it. :)


E: on the plus side, your thread is now in the coolest part of the Forums, even if this wasn't your intended destination

Genius move by Captain Carebear Crimson.

I'm sure Rainman really appreciates his intervention and putting his love of loot pinatas on the watchlist of the entire criminal fraternity,

This is what hapoens when you try and help carebears.

So tell us Mister Crimson, these deadspace fit rifters, where do you like to fly them. Some gents here might want to inspect the quality of your fittings....

I'm sorry, but acting in this holier-than-thou manner (as an "unofficial and freelance ISD") and treating M&C as your own personal fiefdom is hardly constructive either really, is it? The bolded part in your quote is quite breathtakingly arrogant and unconscionable, and would seem - ironically - to breach Rule 4 and possibly 2 of the rules.

I do respect the breadth of your knowledge but the way you seem to come across sometimes to others is belittling to say the least.

Besides, if the OP was truly trolling, as you say, it is highly unlikely that they would've followed up with an alternative fit as presented on the previous page.
