Only function of neut towers in lvl5 mission are to prevent non caldari pilots from completing missions. So basically level 5 missions are only for caldari or carrier pilots.
thus ccp hates all other races but caldari.

Passive shield tanked Ishtar also works.

NO you are wrong what u mean is "i can't solo lv5's in my armor tanking ship"
i use a damnation to tank lv5's and have a logistics repping it problem solved also u can just use cap boosters and primary the towers(i wouldn't do this but u could if wanted too) but tbh everything in eve is more fun if u do it with ur m8's ... my vid watch now

Then train Caldari.
Or Minmatar, or Gallente

your assumption that only calderi can do them is wrong, but nute towers still are ******ed in lvl5 missions. It is just stupid how we go from very little cap warfare in lvl 4s to cap is dry in 2 seconds in lvl 5s.
Not to mention they have stupid HP...
Seems like CCP just got lazy when designing lvl5 missions... Their universal answer was "NUTES MAK HARDER! ADD 50hundread!"

I disagree, if nuets were removed, Lvl V's would revert to being as easy as Lvl 4's, It is simple to fit any mission ship with an active tank and get good damage output. Most people considering Lvl V missions have plenty of isk and very good skills .
I would say that reducing the sheer numbers of rats and making them do damage on a par with our own pimped mission ships would be a greater challenge,
Simply grafting Sleeper AI and damage levels onto our Pirate Npc foes would go a long way to improve lvl V's. And make Player Pirate intrusion a bit more of a risk for casual gankers.

Soloing lvl5 missions with passive tank is fail to begin with. There is no financial incentive since your ISK/hr is in the john.

Then you and I at least agree in principal. I don't want the missions to be EASY, i want them to be less annoying.
CCP's approach to creating lvl5 missions of "NEUTS IS MAEK HARDr!!1" and just adding a bunch of them to most missions, and on top of that making them a PITA to kill, was lazy. Adding 100 frigates to the missions also has the same effect, annoying not hard.
All they have effectively done is make it so that you passive shield/armor tank (w/logistics) on most missions.

Yes I agree, 400+ dps you get from a Passive NH or Sentry Ishtar will take forever to finish most lvl V's.
The Rattlesnake may be an exception though, I have my tanking alt grinding up Caldari and Gallente BS V atm to see how it will perform. It is so skill intensive, with Cruise/Torp Spec' plus all the Drone/Missile/passive tanking skills. Still only 650+ dps but it begins to make sense for solo missions.
Talking Hi sec here ofc, Lo sec would be just for lols. |

Never done a level 5 mission, but I have been neuted dry, and all I did was cycle my cap booster then immediately sheild booster. Surely this works for an armor repper too?

With 2K incoming DPS, yes it surely works. For about 50 seconds until your 100k EHP ship goes up in flame.
