Unfortunately, the damage the Monitors take gets cut out of the battle results, but the fights would be impossible without them. Remnant cruisers and capitals need to be held off until the Radiant or my Aurora can get to them. I would probably get better results replacing all the Omens with Monitors, because I usually run out near the end of the fights.
PPT on the Radiant is the most important factor. Hardened Subsystems made a huge difference, allowing me to go from three groups of Ordo to four. It may be worth it to add to the Auroras, Eagles, and Herons too.
Low CR isn't always what kills us though. Early in the fights, I'm mostly fighting frigates and destroyers. At the end, it's all cruiser and capital spam. If there aren't enough distractions left at that point, it's easy to get overwhelmed.
I didn't have a place for the extra Resonator MRMs, so they went on two of the Herons. It's works well with elite Missile Specialization. I could try Moras, but I don't think they'd be able to keep up. There are a lot of times when I have to charge out of position. I tried with the Legion XIV a few times, and it didn't go well.
That third Heron uses an HVD instead. All the other duplicate ships are identical.
Omega weapons in storage:
- 3 Rift Torpedo Launchers
- 1 Rift Cascade Emitter
- 5 Rift Beams
- 2 Cryoflamers
- 7 Minipulsers
- 3 Shock Repeaters
- 1 Rift Lance
Haven't found a use for these. An old version of the fleet had two Champions with Rift Torpedo Launchers. The Radiant used to have four Minipulsers instead of its four Rift Lances. I thought the Expanded Magazines s-mod would make the Minipulsers good, but they always underperformed in the battle results, and the Radiant's DPS was too low.
