So I have been gone from the game for 5 years. I have a Golem to run missions, but I'm not sure if it's still a viable fit. I usually run this with a Raven that is similarly fit, but remote repping each other. What do you guys think of this as a lvl 4 mission runner, and is there a way I can just solo mission 4's with my Golem? If so what would be a good fit?
Low's 4x BCS II
Mids 2x Large Shield Extenders II 2x Adaptive Invulnerability Fields II 3x Target Painters II
Highs 4x Torpedoe Launchers II 2x Medium Remote Shield Boosters II
The Raven is fitted similar, but with cruise missiles. |

Short answer: Yes... a Golem can EASILY do a level 4 mission solo. Look into an active tank setup with a Bastion Module.
Long answer: The Bastion Module increases your ship's resistances as well as repair speed and amount (see: it is a "siege mode" without the damage bonus for Marauders). This means that in certain setups you can tank many thousands of DPS. I would suggest taking an active tank setup you would use for a Raven and then modifying it accordingly to suit the Golem.
Also... look into MicroJumpDrives. They can "teleport" you 100km in the direction of your ship's trajectory... allowing you to get into very comfortable "sniping" position... or a quick GTFO.

Here is something I slapped together (if someone can come up with one that is better... be my guest... I suck at fitting larger missile ships).

Shield Boost Amplifier II X-Large Shield Booster II Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Heavy Capacitor Booster II, Cap Booster 800 Large Micro Jump Drive Phased Scoped Target Painter Missile Guidance Computer II, Missile Precision Script

Large Warhead Flare Catalyst I (or Rigor? I get confused by this one) Large Warhead Flare Catalyst I (or Rigor? I get confused by this one)
Hobgoblin II x5 Hobgoblin II x5 Salvage Drone I x5
The tactic is to grab aggro, use the Microjumpdrive to gain range, activate Bastion Mode, and pick off targets.
Stop your drones from venturing too far out as NPCs will switch targets every so often. When that happens they WILL mulch your drones.
You can tank about 1600 dps in omni-damage with this fit. More if you use more tanking modules.

Here's a Golem fit to consider:
It's obvious to say that a Golem can solo L4s very easily, so can a Raven. Because of Bastion, the Golem can be fitted differently than a Raven.
For myself, I want to put out as much damage as possible. Applying that damage is the trick. I also want to have a great tank, which the Golem helps with a 7.5% shield bonus.
There have been many posts on Golem fits lately, and from all those discussions, it can be concluded that there is no "one fit for all". There are different styles of play, and preferences. Some pilots like the MJD, I don't use one. some players rely heavily on drones, I rarely use them.
I use to run a Golem with a Heavy Cap Booster, but found I didn't need it.
My fits over the years have changed, and may change again, but this is my current Golem fit:
Rigs: 2x T2 Rigors
Highs: 4x T2 Cruise Launchers, fury missiles, 1005dps, 8128 volley (launchers are grouped into 2s) Bastion tractors, salvager, . . . whatever
Mid: Pith B XL SB, 2x Invul. Flds (that's the tank, 1300 HP/4s 2600 in Bastion) pulsed once in a while if needed. 2x T2 TPs, T2 MGC T2 Webber, or T2 AB, or T2 MGC, or . . . it varies.
Low: 4x Caldari BCUs
Drones: 10x T2 lights
For me, this fit works very well. I personally feel this is my best fit so far, even from posts earlier in the year. Many targets go down with one volley. Pesky frigates and elite cruisers maybe 2. Many BSs go down with 2 volleys, sometimes 3. I split the launchers to take care of the small stuff. By the time I pop the drones out, I can destroy the target with missiles, and I don't have to micro-manage or baby sit them either. I don't have to jump 100km away for position, all the L4s are within the 128km target range of the Golem. I don't have to move unless I need to head to another gate. Younger or newer players may find a need for the MJD to GTFO and save their ship. It's been a very long time since I had to do that. I think by the time a player can fly a Golem, they already have very good skills almost across the board.

Really, c'mon baby, it's not good advice to have some one start a L4 AFK, and then go take a nap.
So, is that the buzz in high-sec? I think not. Come up with some other assumption.

Actually that is very close to my fit. I didn't tell all. That will work very well. I do have crystals, and a few missile implants too. That's how I get the dps and the shield HPs.

I fit my ship the way I want, you can fit yours the way you want. I've made a lot of isk over the years and have a lot of mods in the inventory. If I got the bling I'm going to use it.
So you have a Golem, with only 3 month old character? I really doubt you could be in a Golem so quickly, and be able to actually fly it well. The numbers don't add up to me. Or, you're another one that's afraid to post with their main
Let's just move along, and get back to the OP.

What's in a name? There's all kinds of names here. Who knows why your a dirty little alt, so don't even try that.
Never said any of this was about me. This was about you and your bad advice. I never said anything about a carrier. I don't have one, you are confused on who has said what. Go back and try to read correctly. You should stop before you get in any deeper.
Here's a quote from you;
"Do you see what mine uses for a fit".
Oh, now you say you don't even own a Golem. Then why the heck are you giving any advice at all! And you want us to go AFK and then take a nap! Really? I've never heard anyone say, "Gee wish I had a AFK fit for my Golem so I can go take nap". Give me a break!
You might wake up and see your toon back at your station.
Pleeeaaase, that was just really bad advice.

and the nap was not literal...
And I didn't say I don't own a golem either - I said I *didn't say* because it *isn't relevant*   
I see the problem here - you are an idiot 
Also yes the carrier guy was someone else, I just got you confused because you were both spouting nonsense...
PS: By all means, please link your golem fit - and all of your other bling fits. We want to worship you.
Also you fly them on that character right? You wouldn't be a hypocrite hiding behind an alt would you? >,>
edit: Also - you *mis-quoted me*....right after you complained about my not reading closely enough? Wow man...wow... Is it that hard to copy/paste? |

I thought with arguing between my characters, we all might get a little comic relief from all your BS, and show I'm not hiding behind any alt. I guess you were afraid to show yours because it might prove contradictory. You got called out and didn't show.
But no . . .
You gave the OP your advice, for a ship you don't even fly, and then say you only meant part of it literally? When were you going to tell him that?

As someone who has often used Golems for level 4s in the past a bastion, XL shield booster and two T2 invulns will tank even the highest dps missions against Sansha with ease. Don't use any bling on your tank for this (faction damage mods and TPs), it's excessive and makes you a gank target. Use a crystal set if you must.
Level 5s are also quite doable by swapping out active hardners for faction/deadspace passive resist amps and well setting your mids like this: MJD, 2X rat specific resist amps (good shield compensation skills strongly recommended), 2x XL ASB, Sensor booster (range scripted), Cap booster (yes, you need this, if you get neuted you may need to cap inject in order to MJD and MJD is life). You also need to have two ASBs in case you need to reload, using cap will never be an option.
The strategy for level 5s is as follows: - Blitz the mission and get out, use cruise missiles. - MJD away from the rats when you land, go into bastion and cycle the bastion off. (If you are surrounded MJD above or below the horizon). - When you come out of bastion decide if you need to MJD again or not. If not re-enter bastion and cycle it off again. The range will mean most stuff can't reach and you can safely snipe from there, fast rats that close in will point but not scram so you'll be fine to MJD again. - Kill what you must and leave. - If rats can possibly drop valuable swag: bookmark the wreck turn in the mission and warp back to the wreck in whatever you like.
This is low sec so standard caution around gates is recommended. As for people coming into your mission, it is often less of a problem than you might think. Often by the time anyone finds you and probes you down you will be 200km or more off the warp-in point and there are likely to be a good group of neuting/webbing towers and sentry guns/rats looking for something to do... and... well... Let's just say your invaders are likely to be less prepared to tank a level 5 than you are. Unlike using a carrier however gated missions are your friend as they prevent people warping on top of you.
Reality has an almost infinite capacity to resist oversimplification.
