This is the best setup for this ship possible if you like to dish out alot of damage and tank.
Resists are 76EM/76THERM/85KIN/72EXP.
Damage is over 800dps with void and medium T2 drones, roughly 700dps with antimatter.
I don't use armor rigs because I like mobility and like to see things explode.
For utility and solo work, I recommend using ECM drones for anything less than a battleship.
I'm retiring from the game soon, so high five and happy hunting.

for me i would drop an EANM II and switch it for a Damage control II
it will give you a little extra shield resists and more than double your Hull Hp
ive been in a few fights and come out of it the other side with just under 50% structure so without that Damage control i would have lost a ship

That looks like a monster, Memph. You have re-awakened my interest in command ships.
Sorry to hear you are leaving us, have a good time with whatever you do.

Thumbs up! all i can ask, is would neutrons be better? or the ions due to the lower PG need and the fact you dont need an ACR to fit 7 of them, MWD, cap booster and dual rep? What skills do i need to fit this? i.e AWU and hybrid weapon rigging? Definatly thinking of using this even though i was planning on using neutrons.

NOTE: if you want to tank this even better, get an amarr navy EANM, they're only 35-40m and with compensation skills, well worth it.

if your only going with 1 mag stab id make it gal navy or shadow serp for that lil extra kick

[Turelle]

oh yeah, forgot to say that got 3 SS magstabs already for my gank version. Another thing i forgot to add is that use Void for ships that wont really orbit you or something like a BS which is slow anyway and will tank fairly well. But instead of using antimatter, use Federatin Navy Antimatter for more damage and it tracks as well as the standard version. Also it would be advisable to use Null for faster ships orbitting you at a range of 4-6km. that way with the bigger optimal range and with the awesome falloff the astarte gives you should hit em no problem.

NOTE: Main skills needed to fit this are AWU 4 and Hybrid Weapon Rigging 4 (3 if you use a storyline cap booster and SS mwd). That is ofc on top of other skills you should have if flying a CS. I am pretty sure i will be using this setup for solo and gang pvp. just adding a bit of faction here and there

Due to the slower RoF from Neutrons, they do not do enough damage over the ions to justify wasting all of that grid.  To make them fit on a setup that can tank as well as this one you would need a powergrid rig.  A neutron setup with an ACR actually does significantly less dps than this one.

thanks memph, i just think 'bigger is better' but you have shown me the light lol.

[Luke12k]

dude that is bad ass, and if you are leaving can i um, have ur stuff?

[cike1214]

This does not fit with t2 MARs. Switch them to Medium 'Accommodations' and it will. Maybe he has some sort of PG reduction implant but I have all fitting skill to lvl V.

[Turelle]

this does all fit. you need AWU level 4 at least, and either level 4 or 5 hybrid weapon rigging if you dont use faction (according the QF).

almost there with the astarte now too. i have the ship and skill sitting in my hangar. but maxing the needed gunnery skills to make it worth it.

[cike1214]

Yeah I missed that for some reason, I have maxed hybrid gunnery skills(AWU 5) but I need to level the hybrid rigging skill to lvl 4. Thanks for pointing it out. Maybe I need to level my reading skills to. 

[Thimerion]

Awsome fitting, hats off to you!

[Mark Interiis]

any reason you chose x5 over fleeting?

[Turelle]

i would suppose because it's cheaper. and the 90%, although it slows them right down, when you get close your guns wont track that well until you slow down alot too. I think.
