That fit made me 5 billion in just under 4 months... So it is well worth it to me. One of the best plexing vessels I've ever had, besides the Vargur I replaced it with.
...But to each his own, whatever your "leet" fitting skills will say.
And I used autocannons because that is what I'm hardwired for and I have more skill points in projectiles than hybrids, and prefer them for my taste. I was just throwing up on option for the OP to play around with. |

Ishtar has very low base armor. Med repper + plate is a very good idea for many nullsec combat sites. Depending on the site I would use no plate, 800 plate, or a 1600 plate. Having a plate lets you do things like kill stasis/neut towers and other special targets without worrying about incoming damage. It also lets you attempt riskier sites more safely. Some people like to dual rep their ishtar which has its advantages, but I prefer the versatility I get being able to fit a plate and run sentry damage rigs and fit drone tracking links.
as for hisec explo. you really don't need more than 1 rep and a few hardeners. |

Could it handle the siege railgun sentries in the second room of guristas provincial HQ ? |

Your fit will certainly work better in null ratting, no doubt about that, as my fit simply can't tank that much- but the topic was about hisec exploration and anoms, with dramatically different requirements.

I have done it before, but get any scrammers, and kill off at least one tower before you set your orbit. Should be just fine.

Ishtar sucks in pvp. armortar sucks, and shield Gila is way better. the Gila overshadows it completely. i fly the Gila, it's a beast |
