I am planning to do Michi's missions. I know this mission is hard and plan to do ity with two of my account. Not sure what ships to us though:
Account 1 my Gallente/drone character with very good drone skills (drone interfacing V, T2s, Gallente BS V etc) so a Domi is given.
My second account is a bit worse. This is my Amarr character which have very good Amarr/Laser skills and decent missile skills (T2 HAM but only lvl 4 Heavy missiles). Lasers aint that good against Guritas as you know so I am considering either using:
- Sacrilege (with HAM standard missiles + javeling for long range, dual MAR-2)
- Drake (Heavy missiles - passive tanked
Or I could wait 1-2 week to train for a raven (Cal BS 3 in about 1 week and for lvl 4 Caldari BS/Cruise missile 4 another week).
Any advice?

I love the Sacri but she's a crappy mission boat imo.
Domi + Drake with plenty of kin resists will do it without any probs. Tho if the domi pilot also has an ishtar, you might consider that instead for the insane kinetic tank that's possible.

Sac is maybe not the best misssion boat in general. However, with AB going and circling ships I take almost no damage at all. Tried it in Furister outrider post in Otomainen and nothing could hit me (well it could but one repper was enough).
Not able to break the tank on Illiam (the 2.2 mill BS in 2nd pocket) but that is why I bring the Domi as well.
Yeah, Ishtar would be nice but have two weeks left until I have finished training for it.

Mission number two from Michi is a bit of a struggle. I ended up paying a few mates to come help with the gank while I flew a Basilisk to support their tanking.

Tanking shouldn't be a problem. Guristas only really deal one dmg type... and it's little more than a slightly beefed-up gurista extrav. No aggro issues IIRC.
Just bring a bit of DPS so you can get the BS doown fast. Domi + drake will walk through it.

lol, are you kidding, slightly beefed up GE? The 5th stage has full pocket aggro (which also the 4th has but no as much DPS) when you arrive.
I did it with one Drake + Dominix using the Drake as the tank (taking all aggro) and the Domi shield repping. First time I had to warp out. I refitted (Drake had 2x PDU II, 2x BCU II first which I replaced with 3x PDU II, DCU) and added a second Shield repper to the Domi. This time it was much easier (however I had killed of some ships first time).

PDU's on the Drake? You want to lower shield recharge time on Drakes, and the best way to do that is Shield Power Relays. You can fit 3 SPR's and a damage mod or a DCU and with good cap skills, run 3 active hardeners. That'd be max tank.

Yes, you are probably right that SPRs are better. It was a long time since I used a Drake and when I did that character had pretty bad cap skills so I couldn't run everything with SPRs.
I could probably drop the DCU, don't think it does that much actually. That was more of a safeguard to have some extra tank to be able to warp out if things went wrong.
