hi all, just wondering what ship is best for the missions that you cant use the carrier in? ishtar nighthawk rattlesnake seem the best options? is there any mission that you can't solo without help or carrier? |

rattlesnake is sexy.
best combo sofar is rattlesnake and mach i would say. single snake takes so long on some of them, while if a spawn forces mach warpout it can speed through gates and be back in a jiffy. so, do get a mach buddy for gated. |

Tengu is the answer to most any question regarding lvl 5's.

what he meant to say is: TenguS consider the dps of a tengu set to tank 5s. now look at your isk/hr. now back at his advice. a group of them surely. but then your back to, just bring rattler and mach.

No. I definitely meant Tengu singular. You can get 600 dps out of a solo lvl 5 Tengu, with plenty of tank. Before the nerf, you could be unprobeable while solo tanking 5's with that same 600 dps. Was a glorious thing.
Just blitz the missions, decline the odd one you can't finish in <20 mins, get rich. If you have to accounts to toss around, just let them both run missions seperately. 5's stop being awesome isk/hr when you zerg them.

I guess I lied a little bit. Solo 800 dps SB is better for some missions. Safer to move around, bit more dps.

I wouldn't mind seeing this mystical 600 DPS unprobeable, Tengu that works under level 5 energy neutralization. Last I checked, unprobeable ships required capacitor.
If I'm in error, please do explain?

Now I can't share all my secrets. Lets just say active fits can work miracles in 5's if you know what you're doing. Passive is horribly inefficient.

When I did 5's my unprobable tengu was 2-2.5 bil (including implants). Plus another 20-30 mil for a bomber alt to add dps. Could do 75-80% of the missions in it but would usually cherry pick only blitzable ones.

I'd love to see these magical solo active tank fits that can ignore the neut towers since I know from my own experience it takes a basilisk feeding cap to the tengu for it to run active tank. I suspect you just do that 1 mission where you can warp in and kill the drone :)

mmm, neut towers are tremendously bad, -80 cap/s. please give me an active tengu that does this? neut towers are not flimsy structures...
ill still say: rattler +mach(or yeah, bomber should be cheap and expendeble extra deeps, i forget about them existing.) edit: you dont need a carrier for any of the 5s you want to be running, it will be faster timewise to move tank/dps +dps ship around systems picking new missions etc. now in order to realy get 5s, you need to have high faction standing, so that you can decline ~8-10 in a row(sometimes) and just run the realy good ones. my favorite ways of getting high faction: do cosmos missions that pay faction. do the data centers. if this not enough? join fw for a day or three and farm lvl4s(or pay someone to share missions with you) and get the promotions(huge easy faction standing gains). if this dosent make it, also run the epic arc for that faction. if this dosent do it... train your bloody connections skill up to 4. but unless you start at severe minus, you should be rolling 5s like others roll 4s within 1-4 days of work. then when you have 3-4 chars that are 7 days old with faction 7+ you can avoid the travel time cost of moving between systems and make more missions, with thoose alts you need the fw boosts done first to access cosmos and datacenters, if you dont hit 7 with just the fw gains and connections 4, unsure on that; he didnt tell me(i myself didnt feel the need for an extra from scratch alt). most made in a day of playing eve was 5m lp before the mission boost, id guess if i did another 8-10 hr run today id get ~7m lp. not for the weak of heart or the casual player i know.
for thoose that don't understand why i mention decent high dps ships: dps will kill mission faster. hence making you stay in the spot less time. hence giving any non blue elements less time to probe you down if they are around.

Won't post the fit, but yes; the Tengu is absolutely amazing. The reason it's so epic for 5's I suspect was an unintended feature/perk. But eh, you'll never see me complaining.
Also, if you kill the neut towers, you're doing it wrong.

And no, it can tank any lvl 5. Although, yes; that mission is definitely my favorite.

Definitely not. Cloaking gimps your fit badly, and neut towers have stupid range.

Nah, I'm not going to hand feed it to every lazy person on the forums. Someone will figure it out at some point. Until then though, I'll continue to offer up the solution, and hint at the method. Why? mainly because it's entertains me, which is what a game is all about. Even the srsbsness forum posting part of it.

That was my fit, not Nemo's. Everything about it was fully explained in the evemail, continue to believe it can't tank 5's if you wish but theres not much more I can do to convice you other than perhaps point you to SISI and Eve Survival for you to test it out.

You are so utterly brain dead ******ed, I hardly know where to start. So I won't, and I'll just leave it at that.
@the person who sent the fit:
I really wouldn't bother with the general forum populace. It doesn't help you to help them, and you might even get called ******ed besides. Neat to see someone else in eve is capable of thinking outside the box as well.. (although, imho your fit could use a little tweaking for more dps; it must be quite low)

^^^ There are so many plusses with the Tengu i am surprised people are asking for the fit.
Thought any of several strategies would all work fine :S
To the Op though, i agree the Tengu is best: decent DPS, extreme range, fast, low sig etc etc etc..... |

OK Tengu fit:
Subs: Off - ACE Def - Sup Screen Eng - PCM Prop - FC Elec - DS
Highs 5x T2 HMLs 1x - whatever (TB or something)
Mids 1x AB 1x Kin Amp II 1x Term Amp II 2x HSE II 1x Shield recharger II
Lows 4x T2 BCU II
Rigs 3x Med Core field Purger II
This was used for "the big sting 1-3" it works even though you get neuted etc you dont need much to pulse the AB. Passive tank (almost as AB does to some extent form part of the tank). Takes a while and was done as a test really but it works.
----------------------------- Fail expansion is still fail. |

I like efting so I did it in 5 minutes using author hints -> able to tank neuts and 600 dps. this means 5 launchers and CPM subsystem. Let's see:
[Tengu, extreme cap lvl5?] Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Capacitor Power Relay II Capacitor Power Relay II
Invulnerability Field II Invulnerability Field II Photon Scattering Field II Gist C-Type X-Large Shield Booster Shield Boost Amplifier II Y-S8 Hydrocarbon I Afterburners
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Medium Capacitor Control Circuit I Medium Capacitor Control Circuit II Medium Capacitor Control Circuit II

Tengu Defensive - Amplification Node Tengu Electronics - CPU Efficiency Gate Tengu Engineering - Capacitor Regeneration Matrix Tengu Offensive - Accelerated Ejection Bay Tengu Propulsion - Fuel Catalyst
2 x 3% rof/dmg implants zmm zmh and we have 593 dps 91 cap recharge/s, 40+ cap to tank neuts 1134 omnitank and you can increase that by crystals and better booster. 600+ m/s so you can fly away from neut towers decreasing their neuting further (they neut for less further you are from them and faster you flying)
so yah it's not big science, is it?
