I am currently working on a solo Maulus PvP fit and if any of you have any ideas i'd like to hear them, but this is what I am looking at right now

You only have 2 turrets. I wouldn't have Magnetic field stabs at all for 2 turrets.
I would replace both of them with a Nanofiber and overdrive. Or replace one of those with a Drone damage amplifier.
Put shield tank rigs on instead of armour, no point compromising speed in a kiting ship.

Maybe something like that. The rigs potentially changed for astronautic/EWAR rigs. Personally I would use an overdrive injector system II instead of the DDA. Maulus is never going to get spectacular DPS.

I wanna join up. I think I got what it takes to be a Citizen.

Yeah, Johnny's fit is more what I would use, however, there is plenty of left over CPU, might as well use the T2 sensor damps at half the cost. If you get caught you are dead, so might even forego the shield rigs and just go for moar speed.

Yeah I haven't unlocked the T2 sensor damps, if you can use those definitely use them, my fit is light on CPU, only powergrid is your concern, needs PGM V

Never flown it, but fought against them. This is my contribution. Overdrives instead of nanos because your only tank is in your hull, cap rigs because you have less than 100 dps so you will need time in order to break anything and even with 3 of those rigs you still only have 2 minutes of cap running everything, which is actually really good I just think with a ship like this you will probably need that cap in order to actually be able to have staying power.

like you are flying solo, or like you are the only damp ship in gang?

if solo I can only imagine your target will bum rush you and, well its a maulus, at that point it explodes. also with only 2 damps, it is going to be very hard to stay in t1 point range. A confessor with 2x damps can still lock out to 28km.

This. The issue is that many many people will simple not want to engage you 1v1 and it lacks the dps/ehp to take on multiple frigates at once.

You can do a similar setup with an Imicus and everyone and their nan will be throwing ships at you (Source i fly bait Imicus).

If you must use the fit you linked then take off the trimarks and put bulkheads on to get higher ehp without the speed penalty. Drop the Mag stabs for DDAs for more dps and put the long point up to a tech 2. Current router is not needed for the fit to work so drop that and put on a 2 or 3% PG implant.

Needs a 2% PG implant to fit. Boasts better ehp, better point range, better speed, better dps.

Of course the Maulus's sensor damps would not work as well against a Destroyer with 100km + locking range. Is that really a reason to discount the Maulus? Even the Garmur would have trouble against a sniper Confessor.

You can go for a Crosi Wesdo style fit (look him up on killboards). HG Snakes, links, click orbit, turn everything on. Go AFK. It's some of the most cancerous and boring things in Eve, but hey, it works.

they are a rather common ship and an easy example. A merlin has 16km lock range, and vs a 20km long point I'm not sure it is a very good fight to take. Slingshot and destruction seems like it would be almost too easy, or burning out of point range and warping off. A 24km point makes a bit more sense.

unless the plan is to camp FW plexs and hope the incoming target is AB fit. Although at that point I think they just kill your drones and either someone gets bored and self destructs or backup arrives. Although if you are the one camping they have the ability to just not warp in.

I'm just not sure damps and in point range are a good combo. A keres can at least get away with a 42km long point. Add links, faction point, and heat and it gets crazy 82km lulz.

Yeah, as everyone has already pointed out, the maulus has tremendous power, but it isn't really a great solo ship because it isn't built for dps. It is a support ewar ship. Going solo means you have to carry a point instead of a third damp, which nerfs your own role.

However if you combine this with a kitey combat frigate such as a navy slicer, you are a potent combo.

EWAR boats have other non-EWAR advantages in fitting that you can exploit: more midslots and CPU allow them to rival their combat and attack counterparts in tank and tackle.

well you might fit the tank, but surely not the gank of other combat frigates :)
