I have always been a shield freak, and a passive one at that. My current setup, much to the disdain of the rest of my Gallente friends, and to the amusement of Pete, the service operative in Brapelille Fed Admin station is as follows;
hi-slot;
- 5 x 250mm Proto Railgun
- 1 x Drone Link Augmentor
med-slot;
- 2 x Invul Field II
- 1 x Rat specific Shield II or named
- 2 x Large Shield Extender II
low-slot;
- 3 x Local Shield Power Relay
- 2 x Power Supply Unit II
- 1 x Damge Control II
rigs;
- 1 x Field Purger
- 1 x Field Extender
drones;
- 5 x Hammerhead II
- 2 x Ogre
...but I felt it was time to test exactly what the inherent armour bonus of the Myrm could do.
As Pete pointed out though, I could have prolly picked a better time to try out an armour rep setup as the manufacturers have just downscaled the modules' effectiveness due to power flow issues. So they now have a stacking penalty, but not to be detered, I head into Pete's fitting shop pulling a hover-trolley full of modules behind me.
Pete looks at me and takes a sharp intake of breath through his gritted teeth, rubs his chin and tells me that it's going to be next week before he can even look at my boat.
I pout, and tell him I have 200 units of protein delicacies in the hold that he can have on top of any charge.
"Come back tomorrow, and I'll see if I can get one of the boys to work on her over night."
So, I leave him to it, looking forward to trying out a new armour rep Myrm tomorrow.
