Yeah, I did that on SISI as well, seemed ok to me
WARNING
The smartbomb cyclone does NOT work anymore.
Dramiel tank has been buffed and you will NOT kill them in time.

All the high-DPS fits that were āoverkillā still work just fine, cause 30% more rep means it takes you like 3-5 more gun cycles to kill them at that level of DPS.
All those special āinch-by-inchā DPS fits almost certainly do not work anymore, or work at a glacial pace.
Confirmed. I posted that warning in one of the other burner threads. I donāt think any of the SB fits will work anymore. It seems to be less about running out of buffer to take down the Drams than it is SBs simply canāt break the tank even with indefinite time. HACs are really the only option to run the Angel Base now.
Hi all,
So are the fits in the guide still reliable enough to complete all the burner missions or which ones are just not viable with the changes?
Iāve just come back and am sitting looking over my fits from a year ago, wondering if theyāll still be able to cut it or not.
Iāve had a read through and canāt see any clear cut avoid/doable mission list. Anyone able to hook me up?
Cheers 
edit: Also keep up the fantastic work!
edit: Is the Onyx no longer viable for the Ashimu?
Iāve been attempting to either do all of these or train up skills to be able to do all of these. Thereās only a few that are skills-barred, but Iām closing the gap (Canāt fly a Wolf yet, or fire autocannons!). Hereās my list of fits that work. Note: I have never been on the test server; these are all done in game.
Team Burner - Garmur: first one I ever did, and pulled in a 90m drop (that has so far been my ONLY high priced drop). Iāve done this one against each faction and it works every time. It can get a little dicey on cap if youāre running both Guidance Computers for an extended period of time with the TP to pop that first logi; I typically turn GC off and on when cap starts to get low. Also typically have to OH the launchers for a few volleys to finally break the tank on the first target. Once that first logi is dead, the rest fall pretty quickly. Remember to keep range (by orbiting)
Base Burner Escort Dramiel Angel Base - Vigilant: I only did this one once, and I was done to about 15% structure when I finally beat it. That was my mistake though; I forgot to hit the cap booster onceā¦ yikes! Either way, this fit still works.
Sansha Agent Burner Succubus - Daredevil: drew this one once, no problems with the fit.
Serpentis Agent Burner Daredevil - Hawk: Iāve done this one 2 or 3 times now. I used a second CN BCS instead of the BCS II. Didnāt have a problem.
Angel Agent Burner Dramiel - Daredevil: this oneā¦ Iāve lost 4 daredevils to this one. I now think I know what I am doing wrong, so I donāt think itās unbeatable; I simply donāt know how to operate my Blasters. Iām quite sure I need to use ākeep at rangeā as opposed to āorbit,ā but if someone can correct me here though, that would be appreciated. I havenāt drawn this one since I lost 2 in a row 7 days ago. I wouldāve tried a third time but I got domestic aggro so no time to rip out to buy a new Daredevil.
Note please that I have not tried any of the alternative fits, and in the case of the Angel agent I was using one A-type hardener and an A-type repper (They were cheaper than the B-type versions).
Thanks Jori McKie for putting this guide together. Itās been a ton of fun.
There is one lingering curiosity I have: I drew a Gurista Base, but couldnāt find any or much info on it, so I had to decline. Does anyone have a solo fit for this one?? Preferably Caldari missile but need not be. I had to decline it 3 times and it kills me every time I decline one of these burners.

Nobody is doing gurista base, it is not time efficient
All the Daredevils still work fine for Angel/Sansha/Guristas Agents.
The Serpentis Agent is very tight with the Hawk but doable, and almost entirely undoable with the Harpy unless you go bling and get better skills.
The Blood Agent Wolf with āCensorā Medium Cap Battery still works, just takes longer.
The Archangel Base Smartbomb Battlecruisers no longer work, but the Vigilant works just fine.
Set your default Keep At Range to 1500 meters and use that against the Archangel Agent rat (and Sansha and Guristas too). Do not question this or you will die.
If you use the Default 1000 meters, the Archangel rat will have too much transversal for you to hit it, and yes that means exactly what it means: THE DUAL-WEBBED RAT WITH MWD RUNNING WILL ACTUALLY SIG-TANK YOUR SMALL BLASTERS BECAUSE YOU ARE JUST SLIGHTLY TOO CLOSE TO IT AT 1000 METERS.
If you use Default 2500 meters, the rat lies outside your optimal and you canāt apply full DPS to it as a result. Not much better than 1000 meters. It turns out that 1500 meters is a bizarre sweet spot where you can usually apply full DPS to the rat.
If you orbit the rat, it will easily sig-tank you to death.

or just use an alternave fit like the succubus .
you got plenty dps in em / thermal without using extnded webs for slow down. with one web you set the pace and the dram follows you. remember the succubus has a ab bonus .

as you set the pace its important to set your course in the mids of nowhwere and you have to be moving more then 839 ms. so take a watch on your speed under 60 % webs.
but yea to honor jori for this i m proud to know him and worked about that and have fun fun together. we had great times to duo in lowsec.

Onxy works still but you better have a lot of the missile support skills/shield tank skills to V.
Without a lot of missile skills to V, its hard to kill 1 frig before reload of rlml.
I have managed to survive a reload of shield booster at like ~40% hull with both frigs before though.
Usually have 3 missiles left when 1st frig dies if i remember correctly.
But before one of my recent missile skills to V i would kill 1st frig in EXACTLY 20 lol.
So yeah def works still, but remember the guide does state it is ādesigned for all skills level Vā
Itās a cool fit, especially since it doesnāt use a cap booster. But setting the speed for Kiting is kind of a pain, and Iād personally rather swap that for Keep At Range 1500m with Cap Boost management instead.
Another thing I donāt like is that it splits you into having to skill up Amarr Frigate, Small Pulse, and Controlled Burst. With the Daredevil having a fit for Archangel as well as Sansha and Guristas agents, you can just double-down on Min/Gal frigate skills and Small Blasters. If you already have Amarr skills then go nuts!
Yeah all skills for all fittings/hulls etc are at V
setting the kiting speed isnt a pain at all.
but yeah if you already have the skills its a nice alternative ship for those with probs like Corporal_Punishment08. of course the devil is the swiss army knife in most cases.
this thread has my solution to it. As said itās not really time efficient. The good news is that it uses the same rigs as the angel base vigilant, so you can just swap some fittings. Also Iām not sure if any mods need swapping due to tiericide changes.

I would definitely fly the succubus if I could use lasers 
Definitely, the problem has been pilot error. 99% of the time something goes wrong for me, itās pilot error. Also, thereās a 1% margin of error 
Thatās a very thorough guide. I will definitely try that out next time I draw that mission. Thanks!
Thank you for confirming my suspicions! Pilot error: Keep at range must be used!
Reflecting back on this mission, I realise now that I was in fact using āKeep at Rangeā at 1500m. I remember what went wrong nowā¦ I was moving away from the Agent with the āKeep at Range,ā and its tank was dropping properly. But then I realised that I was heading right for the base itself. I had to change direction, and upon doing so, not only did my dmg application drop but the Agentās damage application increased, and I missed a cap cycle, so my tank dropped. I injected a booster and fired up my tank again, but it was too late. I then went back into the mission and attempted to avoid the problem of running into the base by using āOrbit,ā not yet realising that I was unable to hit the Agent when I changed my trajectory. Of course I blew up that second time. By the time I realised to check my combat logs to see the difference in damage between āorbitā and ākeep at range,ā the messages were gone from that fight.
So kids, when using ākeep at range,ā make sure youāre not heading towards random space junk
Thanks everyone for the help. Iām slightly more confident now.
From my experience, the lower your shield level is, the Ashimmu and Sentinel are less likely to focus on you instead of aggro a drone. I think Ashimmu will focus on you when you are below 50% and sentinels are a bit not clear.

price for both fits is in the 600m mark unless you faction the BCUs
also i have noticed that the sentinels even with my skills (near max) take around 15 shots each (faction bcus) has the tank on the sods been upped? also the ashimu itself is taking atleast 1 reload
more high skilled than high price so can save DD for angel and sansha only

i have genos so i can online the rocket for extra damage (and 200m/s)
i overheat mwd until close to scram range 2-3 cycles if u time it correctly then once scramed keep at range 1km and OH guns at 50% shield bye bye worm
has enough speed to catch the worm w/o genos (3.1km/s 4.5km/sOH and 440 no mwd after scram)
start mwd overheat on 2nd cycle and u catch up without going over 50% damage on the mwd
does require high speed skills but pumps out same (or more) dps than a DD and far far safer and cheaper
no oh on tank required so you are never in danger of dieing
have run this many times no issues even if assault frigs lvl 1 (makes no dif on damage)
