A lot of lv5 missions have neut sentries. That pretty much put all amarr boats out the airlock... ------------------------------------------

Referring to Amarr sub-caps? No. If Amarr and running l5's, you're going to have to go the cap route with a Archon.
However if you want to run l5's with subcaps, you can solo-tank *most* l5's in a well-trained passive recharge (that is, 100% passive... no shield hardeners) Rattlesnake with (rather cheap) rat-specific Pithum C and A-type resist amps. Add a second toon in a DPS boat to kill things faster (eg; Machariel)
Purger rigs (T1 or T2), all lows filled with SPRs, in the mids put a LSE, 2 shield rechargers, and use the remaining 4 slots for the mission-specific resist amps. Cruise missiles and DLA's in the highs.
L5's are rife with tier 2 and 3 neut towers, so once you warp in, count on having your cap sucked dry within the first half a minute... hence the pure passive tank. You won't be able do all L5's with this setup (unless you bring even more friends/alts), as a only few really require at least a carrier to do reasonably... but you can of course decline those.
First kill neut towers, then cruise missile batteries, and then battlecruisers then everything else, minding triggers along the way. With Angels missions it really helps to kill off any TP'ing rats early on as well.

Thanks for the feedback guys, I'll have to rethink the level 5 thing for a while. A lot of work and tweaking fits involved, however, by the looks of it, the rewards should be worth it. Cheers Amar Sent from a campfire using smoke signals. |

Well, with good Social skills you can rake in 100,000 LP per mission with most L5's. The bounties and mission ISK payouts really aren't substantially more than what you'd get with a good highsec L4. The return is in the LP and converting that to ISK. Lots of people make the mistake of focussing on how much in rat bounties they get and end up feeling disappointed.
In fact, some of the most lucrative L5's are the drone ones. Massive LP reward and enough drone poo to build a BS just with Rogue Spy 1/1 alone.

Although, there is that risk of missioning in low-sec. Since the nerf of unscannable ships (making them more easy to scan out), I am under the impression that it's quite risky nowadays. Or am I missing something?

I stopped doing level 5's after it became possible to probe, for me the there were plenty of other ways to make similar amounts of isk without the risk. Not to say it's no longer possible, I'm just not fond of constant button mashing of the d-scan.
Also the rewards are deffinately in the LP in my opinion, rogue spy for example has you killing just 6-8 BS and 3-4 BC for a 80-100K LP (was brilliant when they formed 75+% of the missions handed out).
