Hm, I am curious who has ever tanked a Cyclone passively - for PVE purposes... Why do you want to throw away the huge shield booster bonus of the Cyclone?

If you like to passive tank Minmatar battlecruisers, try the Hurricane. They can get an amazing passive tank.
Cyclone's are really good at shield boosting, would be a shame to ignore that bonus. ----------------------------------- Look at me! I'm on the INTERNET!!! |

Can change the rigs to Screen's, and use non-faction stuff, but fitting might be a problem, if so, try dropping to 220 AC's and using Malkuth Launchers, or keep that and change damage mods for fitting mods instead.

Here is a Cyclone setup I was using for Level 4 missions:
High: 720mm Howitzer Artillery II 720mm Howitzer Artillery II 720mm Howitzer Artillery II 720mm Howitzer Artillery II 720mm Howitzer Artillery II Heavy Missile Launcher II Heavy Missile Launcher II Heavy Missile Launcher II
Medium: 10MN Afterburner II Medium Shield Booster II Shield Boost Amplifier II 2x T2 Shield Hardeners (depending on damage type)
Low: Gyrostabilizer II Power Diagnostic System II Power Diagnostic System II Nanofiber Internal Structure II
Rigs: Core Defence Operational Solidifier I Core Defence Operational Solidifier I Core Defence Operational Solidifier I
Drones: 3x Medium (depending on damage type) 2x Light (depending on damage type)
The rigs reduce the booster cycle duration (and they stack without penalty!) so effectively the shield booster sucks faster cap energy than without the rigs and you cannot run the shield booster permanently. But that's compensated by a high shield repair rate. The tank is overpowered for L3 and the easier L4 missions (or shield tank friendly missions, i.e. Angels). For this purpose I would try to fit (at least partially) projectile rigs or a second gyro or a ballistic control or tracking computer instead of the shield boost amplifier.

This is what I was using for level 3 missions a few months ago. It's a mixture of passive and active tank - might as well make use of the shield boost bonus and use the cap for something.
