Currently I am experimenting with Shield Tank Fits and generally mucking about with vehicles of the Shielded persuasion so I know how they operate.
They are so vastly different from Armour Tanks, worse of course but more interesting IMO. Its also tough not being able to use the High Tier Heat Sinks and Nitrous Boosters.
SO my current Gunlogi fit is
Heavy Shield Extender I
Shield Extender I
Heavy Shield Booster
2x Surge Shield Hardeners
ADV Compressed Rail
Its kinda cool fighting with other tanks at 100m+.... kind of how I think all tank battles should be, not brawls at 30m but real tank battles.
Claimed 3x Well fit Madrugars tonight using this ****** build.
Any tips from real shield tankers on how to do this well and fits that I could use. Pyrex had a good one on his channel.

The difference isn't even funny.
2 equally skilled tankers in a shield and armour tank will always have one outcome, well done if you've managed to crack a few armour tanks but it's just shocking how much better they are.
If you absolutely must use shield, Maybe drop the rail for a missile launcher? I prefer them only because they bring the armour tanks to a more level playing field with the bonus damage to armour and allow you to fit better extenders.
Oh I know, SGT NOVASTAR was pissed I manage to take down his tank he called in the almighty blaster Gunlogi, which I also have good fits for, and proceeded to show me what happens when an armour tank gets close to you..... what I don't want to mention is how my corpie and I cocked up hunting him down with two tanks and over heated both guns as he was running away.

High
1 heavy shield extender azeotropic
2 or 3 passive hardeners ( if 2 passive then i put 1 active)
1 heat sink
Low
2 Damage mods
It's good for sniping, if you have to move around don't use it.
Will try thanks mate, its very different from an active armour where almost all modules can be activated.

I prefer them only because they bring the armour tanks to a more level playing field with the bonus damage to armour and allow you to fit better extenders. i killed 3 madrugars with a sica once. granted i have max skills in vehicles and my sica was a full crew, but i only used standard turrets to do it. so no... shield tanks arent unusable. armor just happens to be easier to fit and it lets you use the more useful mods.
This is true. I am slight irritated by this. On my Maddy all slots are used, not one modules is wasted.... on my Gunlogi two slots are wasted.
