I've been flying my Ishtar for a long time now, moved from a Domi to it as i was out in 0.0 and it made ratting a lot easier. So i was bored of that and looking for a new Lvl 4 ship to replace it for a bit and have some fun. I played around with EFT for a bit and seemed the Absolution had some nice numbers, dam that was a mistake. Spending the full mission chasing ships around just doesn't work, and beams just don't seem to have the DPS.
I was going for a Legion for some WHing but want to have something back home to do missions on incase it all goes wrong, what would you suggest? I don't want to fly Ravens or any missiles boats. I have skills mainly in Gallente, a decent amount in Amarr and very few in the otehr 2.
I see lots of posts similar but most of them seem to be focused on pure DPS and not DPS/Fun.
Thanks for your time. |

yeah you can't really afk with the railsentry domi, but it will be a lot faster.
And you won't need as much tank either if you have good enough skills and pop the rats fast enough(which you can definitely do with a dps domi)

It's hard to beat the ishtar for pve. The proteus is great in pvp, but the ishtar does it better in pve. A few thoughts for mission ships:
*Rail/Sentry navy domi *Kronos - this'll be very dependent on the missions you're doing *Abaddon - also mission dependent since you're only doing EM/Therm *Paladin *Sentry Rattlesnake - ya missiles but that's the minor weapons system
For fun I'd say: *Skill for a mach *Nightmare *Blaster proteus with mwd =D

MWD Blaster Proteus is da bomb. It is about the only ship that makes blasters look good in missions.

MWD blaster Proteus is a lot more fun ship to fly than super-boring sentry Domi. +1
It tanks well, is fast and blasters will facemelt anyone.

Edited by: Bibosikus on 19/05/2011 10:09:52 I also used an Ishtar for about 2 years in Serp level 4's. I changed the fit a few times, ending up with a highly pimped (Black Eagle DLA's, Fed Navy ODL's etc) mission boat which put 450dps out to 150km if necessary. Anyone who tried to suggest moving to a Kronos, I just laughed at.
Then I tried one :)
It's expensive to fit, take a while to train well, and it's slow. But for Serpentis missions at least, a Kronos is probably the best Gal ship there is. I still use it, and I still use the Ishtar for select missions (eg. ones with long gates).
For fun you might also try the Gila or Vindi - they both need a bit of micromanagement. For dps and isk/hour, a Rattlesnake, or even a Mach... they all have Gallente blood in them hrhr
