Dominix Fitting

[Reiver67]

I am a bit bamboozled by all the permutations for ship fitting that I have come across searching the internet.

What I would like is a straightforward fit out for a drone equiped Dominix used primarily for mission running. I have only achieved Level 2 mastery of the Dominix thus far, any advice appreciated?

Nobody use dominix for missions. The most used is the scorpion and their faction and tech 2 equivalent.

If you still want to use it i would go for sentry drones and shield tank: an sniping plataform

Yes sniping platform is what I am after

No significant number of people are using Scorpions for PvE, they have no weapon bonuses lol... A Rattlesnake sure. But not a Scorpion, and not a Widow either.

A Dominix is a fine DPS ship for PvE. Here's the fit I would use. It is better than a typical shield fit as it still get maximum useful damage out of the lows and uses its mids for DPS-enhancing utility and cap batteries which are the best cap stability module.

You don't need the guns but you may as well use those high-slots for something that isn't using capacitor.

Highs:
Drone Link Augmentor II
Dual 650mm Repeating Cannon II
Dual 650mm Repeating Cannon II

Mids:

100MN Afterburner II

Lows:

Large Armor Repairer II

Rigs:
Large Capacitor Control Circuit I
Large Auxiliary Nano Pump I

Drones:
5x Heavies
5x Sentries
10x Lights

This will slap down around 1000 dps on NPCs at typical ranges

Thank you! This is what I was looking for.

It looks terrible, but the passive recharge shield Domi actually works...
(don't use afterburner in fight, not enough cap)

Thanks Max, I havent had a chance yet to play with any of the suggestions I have recieved. Weirdly I have always mounted rail guns, so interested to see how I get on with cannons.

[Max Rainwell]

You're welcome.
Well Dominix doesn't have any bonuses for guns or tank, only the for the drones.
It's up to you what suits you and the missions better.
Railguns consume capacitor and deal only thermal / kinetic damage.
So if you need long range, use the artillery guns, or autocannons for closer range.
Also projectile weapons let you choose the damage type and don't require capacitor.
Smaller one for better tracking against smaller target, or if you lack the powergrid for big guns.

And don't forget to use proper hardeners for the enemy you would be facing.

[Reiver67]

Thanks again
