The Duvolle Tac has 78.5 damage, pretty fair amount, a proto blaster turrent, the ion cannon. does 136.5. about half as much damage, seems ligit. But if you have pro 5 (3% damage increase per level) 78.5 raises to 90.275. If you are in the caldari or mini assult you have lots of high slots (4 and 5 respectably). Slap on 4 damage mods and 90.275 raises to 121.675 damage per shot.
Stacking penalties apply to the complex damage mods. 4 of them will net you 29.96% damage increase not 40%.

Throw on 4 damage mods and the stacking penalties are reduced from 40% to 29.96%. Lets add profficentcy 5 to both of them. 4 damage mods (no stack penalty) + 15% pro = +55% damage wich turns D tac into 121.675 4 damage mods (with stacking penalty) + 15% pro = + 44.96% wich turns D tac into 113.7936 Okay that makes a diffrence of 7.8814. Soo its equivilant ADV blaster tank turrent per shot... getting better
Not sure it works that way.
I think (I could be wrong here though) that it works like this:
Base Damage x Skills Bonus x Modifiers
So in our case it would be:
78.5 * 1.15 * 1.2996 = 117 damage per shot |

Something else to keep in mind. Assuming you use a Caldari ck.0 proto suit, you have 4 high slots for your damage mods. However without shields in those slots you're going to be fairly vulnerable to return fire. Sure you can take proto assaults down in 4-5 hits but they can probably do the same to you with your 330 basic EHP. Armour plates might give you an addition shot or two of survivability but a scrambler will mince you quickly, no? |

Yes but this still works in pubs because everyone you see in pubs is bad for some reason. And in some PC battles this is viable. Not saying alot lol but you could defend or take a district against a bad team with this and win or be veryyy cautious and play hard in serrious games, i bet i could pull it off and some other great players if we played as gay as we could with vantage points and squads. But srly this is about this being possible at all
Yes, the gap in pub games can be a bit annoying but I think that is partially working as designed. Perhaps there should be a mechanic where people have to pre-select their fits before entering battle and the match-maker can try to get set them against equivalent ISK fits?
I play pub games with a BPO dropsuit and a GLU-5 TAR normally. It's annoying when you run into a proto fit and nearly take him down but his extra EHP and DPS win the fight for him. I save that kind of gear for corp battles where losing 100-150k~ ISK per clone is worth it if you win the battle. Some people have a lot more ISK sloshing in their wallets than I do though... |
