"But Shayz, you hate the Calp**** weapons and suits"
Yeah well...My Minmatar Assault won't be able to shield tank anymore (I'll have to fit it like my Minmatar Logi now...http://youtu.be/sYLUzNZ_W7c). Personally I think that a 4/4 layout for the minmatar assault is WAY better than a 5/2 layout, but then almost all of my suits will be armor/dual tank based.
I was originally going to spec into the Caldari Logi, but I didn't like the slow movement speed and sacrifices I had to make for equipment. That, and I'd rather use a caldari suit for slaying. ___________________________________________________
My goal here is again to try out as many playstyles as possible. I have not yet gotten the hang of shield based suits and would like to change that with charlie
Anyways, let's talk hypothetical fittings:
ARR 4x Extenders (or 3 and a damage mod...maybe) 1x Energizer/recharger 2x Regulators 1x Dampener
This one seems like my favorite so far...tell me if the dampener isn't going to work (seems to do well on my medium flanking suits in the past). As a shield reliant suit I don't need speed as much as I do stealth. That way if I need to hide from the enemy for a few seconds I can do that even if it's just behind the wall from where they are standing
RR 3x Extenders (or 2 and a recharger/energizer) 2x Damage mods 2x Reactive plate 1x Sprint mod
Because sprint mods are pg intensive, the reactive plates would be a better setup than a plate and a repair. They also slow me down less, allowing the sprint mod to have a bigger effect. This suit allows me to sprint around to a flanking position and take shots at them while still having a high HP base. The lower regen rate of the shields is made up for by the ability to rep back my armor base.
ARR 3x Extenders 2x Energizer/recharger 3x Regulator (or 2 and a sprint mod)
Okay this one is just for messing around, but I'm interested in seeing how insane the reps would be. Also, speed.

It's not that I need to shield tank the minmatar suit...
It's that ALL of my fittings are either armor or dual tanked. I have a cal sentinel bbasic frame but even that hass 400+ armor.
I like diversity, and for a shield tanked/reliant suit, what better option than the caldari assault?/

Best thing about the Minmatar? Versatility.
I'm not switching by any means. I'll probably be using the Min Assault more now that it has a 4/4 layout.
But I need a shield based suit for versatility purposes. I'm not going to ever skill into caldari scout...and the sentinel isnt exactly a shield reliant suit (still pretty dual tanked). Finally, I don't want to use the caldari logi as a slayer suit.
I should mention this in the OP. As much as I love the versatility of minmatar suits I'd like to mess around with a shield suit like the Caldari Assault.
