Only way I managed to split my DPS when I was using sentrysnakes was to add another loki

I was able to get a quasi DPS split by using geckos but I couldn't get it to consistently work.

I presume these times are in 0 influence? Have you ever run at 100% influence? If not, can these fits take the massive resist issues?

Influence doesn't really feel different from 0-20% and the times are similar.

In the early days of my nightmare fleet I did run several VGs while influence was around 100% (it goes down pretty quick even solo). Part of the reason why I ran two nestors then was because it allowed me to run at any influence. CCP has since nerfed the t2 plate so even my old nms have less EHP now. When I finished optimizing my NM setup influence became almost completely irrelevant because even at 100% influence I was removing 4 frigates a cycle.

The early nightmares had about 121k EHP with 76/69/73/71 resists (242m signature).

My current domis have 100k EHP with 76/75/68/56 resists (346m signature).

The current domis have been run in 50% influence without changing the fit. First waves are the only serious problem as it takes time to get drones deployed and assigned. Time that the NPCs are using to shoot me. AFter the first wave everything goes much smoother. Funny thing is NCOs generally feel the hardest under influence.

For higher influence I'd modify the fits on the domis as the loki and nestors are over tanked in comparison. The fourth drone damage amplifier adds about 45 dps so I can replace it with a tank module without gimping my dps. The loki is taking so little damage I'm not even sure if I'd change the fit at 100% influence.
