I wouldn't fit anything but autos on mine. The DPS difference is enormous, the gimped grid makes fitting painful in arty setups. With my skills the autos are good out to about 60km for all but the toughest rats.
Then again, I'm running missions in a region with mostly angels, so most of the BS rats come in to 8km or so where it takes me about 30 seconds to pop them. For the odd Serpentis Grand Admiral at 50km it takes a bit longer, but with drones it's still much faster than my old arty Tempest.
If I had lots of missions coming up Sansha... I'd move to a different region

By the way, it takes three defenders to destroy a torp, so the Golem pilots cursing defenders are probably using cruise missiles. Why bother? You may as well fly a CNR for a whole lot less ISK.

I still get to instapop some of the weaker cruisers and destroyer class's.
So do I with my autos. And 3 1/2 seconds later I get to pop another. |

With bouncer II's you could warp in and drop some sentry drones to give you some drone snipage
Eh, yeah. Three of them. And what will you use to kill the fast frigates? Harsh language? |

For some reason the Vargur actually feels faster in completing missions.
Probably depends on what you're fighting. I'd be very surprised if a Golem could keep up with my auto Vargur popping Mordus, Angels, or mercs. Especially in missions with lots of fast cruisers, like Mordus Headhunters.

you can't swap out damage types in a vargur, at best you do semi-omni dmg which isn't really all that great but it's not like you can go I'm going to be facing gallente lets put all my damage in therm...
This is wrong. For one thing, phased plasma shells do 100% therm. For another, for the most part the mixed damage type shells match the types you want for rats. Titanium sabot does thermal and kinetic, which is what you want for serpentis and many of the drone missions. If you use the right shell you pay a very small penalty for having more than one damage type.
