This Passive Shield Myrmidon is truly an amazing setup .... using T2 Vuclans you use no cap and put out a fairly decent ammout of dammage + what you get once you start to wreak Havoc on the Battlefield with you Ogre II's. Enjoy this shield myrmi that has  come to be known to me as a wonder.

I tried a passive myrm once, its HP/s passive tank was awesome.
definitely one of the ships that disproves the rule.

you should be able to fit T2 425s on here instead of the 220s

thanks for posting this, would never have thought of it otherwise

Just tried this in EFT. Looks amazing!

Probably surprise a lot of players expecting to just eat through a myr's shields

I've been using almost this exact setup for over 2 months but didn't want to post the loadout figuring all the long-term eve players would bash what they don't understand without even trying it 1st!! With it I can solo all but 2-3 LvL 4 Missions.

nice fit!

i use  something similar...  trading  an em rig  for  a  purg rig... amazing results.... by  the  way...  after  they  nerfed  the  drones...  two  racks  of  three  tech 2

i use the 650 mm prototype siege cannon in stead of the vulcans... little better dps
i've got a little different set up that allows the cpu to work, but otherwise awesome ship for solo lvl 4.... (most that is)

This is very interesting, but I'm afraid I still don't understand.  I can see this can tank a massive DPS.  Maxed out with Ogre IIs it's got a respectable DPS of 455; but a range of 1.4+10.  Without AB or MWD seems like it'd have a problem getting in range.  I guess I'm still a newb at flying these larger ships and need some enlightening.

how are you powering the invuln fields?  great passive tank for 3 minutes but the invulns take too much cap

In order to get this to work for me I have to change out an spr for a pdu and one of the invulns for a magnetic scattering amp

by the way you can get 5 medium artilery on there too leaving 1 high for a drone link augmenter

(6 med artilery with advanced weapons upgrades to lvl 3)

The cap last quite a bit more than 3min (even if EFT says other wise). With cap skills at LvL 4 you can get over 9min (over 12 min at 5 real life - EFT is wrong) and if you set for PvP in a gang with AC's, jump right to the enemy there is no need for range on guns. Then you let others do the tackling. For missions it works fine with Arties or Rails, though a little less cap life with Rails but long enough to kill what you need to and cycle off the Invul fields. Swapping an SPR for PDU CONSIDERABLY weakens the tank for only about 2-3min more cap, not worth it imo.

there must be something wrong with eft's cap computations.  cause its saying that it only has a +2 recharge rate.... hmmm.

[delindsay]

I've found the same problem with Logi fits. EFT says you can't run 3x LRAR II's constant at LvL 4 cap skills but in real life it worked for a corpie without Rigs (but with a few rech modules). So yeah it's off a bit but is still a good tool to go by, I love EFT.

EDIT: I will say this though when the cap dies it STAYS dead or near so for a very long time.

[Sky Grunthor]

well... eft is a guide and not a god so... probably a good idea to test it out in eve actual anyway.

[dougalcorn]

It's distressing to me that EFT seems to be wrong here.  My biggest complaint with this setup is the cap draw.  My experience with PvE is that I need my tank to last longer than 5 minutes and probably longer than 10 minutes.  If EFT is wrong and I'm weeks away from being able to test this (assuming I'd be willing to switch my skill plan) how can I verify just how well this works?  All my other fittings I have precise numbers that tell me how well they work.  This one just has vague "over 9min".  Am I foolish to put too much confidence in comparing fits in EFT based on its numbers?
