Hello, I'm in a null sec region doing Sansha Anoms. I'm trying to get some idea of what kind of dps I need to get my tank up too in order to do some of the forsaken and hidden ports,hubs and dens. Are there any rough numbers to shoot for, such as a 400 dps tank, 500? Do I need more? All my tanks are rat specific so I can get them up there, but I don't want to over or under do it as some of the higher tier anoms dish out some quick dps on the spawns.

Any help will be appreciated.

It really depends on the ship… BS you need 500+ peak tank, in a T3 you can get away with half that…

I'd suggest you use an overtanked setup at first, so you can get used to the triggers etc… than gradually add more damage mods.

I'm using a BS at the moment. Could you be more specific with 500+, what does the + cover? 600, 700 total?
