However calling the dual XLASB Sleipnir 'good for small gang bait and not much else' is just a completely wrong statement. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying single XL + Cap booster or XLASB + LASB are not good, they have their advantages (larger neuts and guns being the big ones) and disadvantages (less tank, weak to neuts, more expensive) compared to the Dual XLASB fit. You can also make it even cheaper by dropping the Shield Boost Amp for a web (or any other midslot module) this frees up a bunch of CPU and you can use a T2 Co-Processor instead. Your cargo can hold just under 4 reloads with a reasonable amount of ammo giving you about 400k EHP if you run through your entire cargo of boosters. With just a blue pill (no links no implants) you're tanking 1740dps over 40 seconds, so if you stagger your boosts long enough to get a reload on another booster (60 seconds) you have an effective tank of about 1100. Nos allows you to keep your scram active even under very heavy neuting pressure and that's pretty much your only active module once you're brawling. People always seem to scoff at Dual 180s but you get excellent tracking and 720dps with RF short range ammo, and you hit 900 with Hail and heat.īoth utility highslots are utilized and are very useful, neut screws over frigates trying to get under your guns as well as neuting off their scram (I live in lowsec where AB frigs are very common, in other space you might consider 2 small nos for even more cap resilience).

It only requires 2 fitting mods and the bling is very minimal (30mil for the scram, 40 for the co-processor). X-Large Ancillary Shield Booster, Navy Cap Booster 400ĭual 180mm AutoCannon II, Republic Fleet Phased Plasma M Some sacrifices have to be made but you're still flying a ship more than capable of holding it's own. Great small gang bait but not so great for anything else. Having 2 X-Ls just requires too many slots and gimps yourself far too much.

This was my line of thinking too, but the fitting for XLASBs requires serious gimping of the lowslots for pg/cpu with a single DS booster I can drop a CPU mod and put in a tracking enhancer, also the cap boosters provide some kind of neut resistance.įor Anize, I'm gonna be using it for WH PvE/PvP + on grid links sometimes, just want to keep it survivable However you need dual cap boosters to do it, don't even bother with one. Now all that being said, single XL Booster is definitely viable on a Slepnir and a solid choice, it gives you far more sustained tank over time as well as a longer tank life since it doesn't consume boosters as fast as an ASB fit does. Sleipnir has the fitting for dual XLASB with a cheap fit due to it's ability to downsize guns to Dual 180s which the Claymore doesn't get.

Claymore does single XLSB + Dual Cap booster much better, it can have a web and it all fits very nicely on a Claymore.ĥ.

Cause of the dual cap boosters you can't have MWD/Scram/Web and I really like a web on my fits, they are incredibly useful.Ĥ. You need dual cap boosters to fuel it properly, without dual cap boosters you'll barely be able to run it and will be incredible susceptible to cap warfare.ģ. You really need to pimp up the booster, DG won't really cut it, you want a minimum of Pith C-TypeĢ. There's a few reasons why I prefer it to going with a single XL booster:ġ.
