Some time ago I saw an Ishtar fit for level 5 missions. I've bought the ship, and fitted 'most' of the mods, but would like some further help before I head off on a mission with it. Yes, there are several guides to level 5's in an Ishtar, but some are quite old, others are garbled, etc, etc.
Would someone be so kind as to help point me in the direction of a newer, reliable and legible [lol] guide to doing level 5's in this specific ship? |

I totally agree with the comments re. lvl4's. However, I should clarify. My main is an 04 character and has been running lvl4's for over 6 years, and is quite experienced. However, RL precludes my involvement with a corp', so I run solo which brings with it obvious learning curve issues.
But again, thanks for that good advice, and for taking the time to post. I should have clarified my position first. |

Yes mate, agreed. The Ishtar is set up purely to perma-tank Gurista/Serp' damage. Lows are all Beta Reactor Controls: SR1`'s, mids are Rep/Fleet LSE's with therma/'kin' amps and the rigs are CDFE II and the MSDA II.
Basically, I've got the ship, the mods, etc. But never having flown a lvl5, I don't want to wade in thinking I'm the nuts and die within ten seconds, lol.

I'm in a nighthawk doing level5s and most of them are pretty straight forward provided you watch your triggers. They do take quite some time though. Skilling up for the Ishtar atm, can fly it, but without tech II sentries :p
Cool. My main's maxed out on a lot of stuff [102m sp's] and can use the NH., However, I've never considered taking one into lvl5's because of how long it takes to complete. Do you use a second character for damage dealing or just the NH?

Fly ishtar is very simple.
Drop a can with a minmatar slave in it. Orbit at 5km. Clear any tackle (be careful of triggers!!), pop web towers. Then carry on shoot whatever you need to as per the mission guide.
Ishtar can only handle kin/therm lvl5s and a few other very easy ones like Sansha on the Horizon.
Thanks Mentat, appreciate it. Loving the Minmatar slave, lol.
