Hey folks,

I have 3 accounts at the moment, training up for Mach's but coming from a Caldari shield tank/mining backgrounds. They all have Gallente BS 3 and pretty decent drone skills.

Looking for RR domi fits that are cap stable (or long lasting) so I can have nice passive tank while RR'ing each ship.

Plan is to accept a lvl 4 mission each, fly all 3 in, gain aggro, setup spider tank, deploy drones and watch the madcap drone AI go to work.

Anyone any advice? May eventually use Gila/Rattlesnake but Domi is nice and cheap if things go wrong lol

It can be done, but for any real effectivness you need to pick either RR or cap stability. The domi can fit a good shield tank, but it needs shield power relays to do it. Those kill your cap stability.

Of course if you don't plan to use guns, and can set up a cap chain, that point becomes moot.

No plans on using guns (maybe 1 for gaining aggro), so a cap chain could be a go. Looking for something that has nice drone damage but can aslo pretty much perma run the group of 3.

What would you suggest?

Only ever used a Navy Scorp, with a T1 DPS Drake and a Noctis to salvage, currently boosting standings on the drake and noctis pilot to get lvl 4 missions

Yep this is something i'd go for in this particular situation. And i also find domis more suited in shield rr tank than armor. Try also navy domi if you're fancy enough. Additional medslot and drone bay space are cool.

Ah, you seek meaning? Then listen to the music, not the song.

Needs Shield emission 5, otherwise just downgrade to meta 4 shield transporters.

Though, with armor you can get a better tank mostly and with 3 omni's instead of 2.

Is there a specific reason you're spider-tanking and not just local tanking for L4s? Judging by the fits I'm seeing you aren't gaining anything but you lose reliability.

Excuse me, but what the f*ck are you desu?

Better cap with energy transfer, and better tank, because remote repairs are better than locals.

And you can get a local tank that will tank L4s with ease that still allows the drone mods. Especially with 3 sets of sentries taking the dps down.

I've tanked some L4s in 3 man gangs with a Deimos that had a small armor repairer I and a DCU II as its tank, blaster fit with a MWD.

A harby alt with meta 4 medium shield reps kept my passive shield ishtar at 100% shields.

Excuse me, but what the f*ck are you desu?

Aha, and what is he going to use the high slots for? guns? with AFK missioning.

Better to use those high slots for tank and cap... no?

Show me your 3x Omni link, 4x Hardener, 2x LAR and 2x Sentry drone rig, cap stable domi please.

You're right, 3x omni with 2 LAR and 2 sentry rigs is just out of reach, true facts are true.:*( You can get close.

Not that min/maxing for DPS when you're AFK with 15 sentries is going to change anything but okay.

The armor fit you posted would be the best pure RR that I've seen in this thread.

Excuse me, but what the f*ck are you desu?

Kalhin Curze,

I find managing drone aggro to be super obnoxious. I couldn't imagine trying to do it for 3 Dominiis at once.

You probably won't be able to run 3 Dominiis while afk; they'll kill too fast and you'll need to be swapping out drone aggro quite frequently.

I wish you the best of luck if you try it, though.

Might get a bit interesting. Won't be completely afk but just fancied a change from missiles and I like drones. I'll see how it goes as I can always go back to a drake fleet if needed
