a jamming worm can do the work. I’ve done this, and I needed to pull drones back 2-3 times per mission. Not that efficient.
And as for tristan, I don’t think it has enough dps to break logi any way.
Now combat ceptors will receive a huge bonus to prop heat effect. They can go about 8k with heated MWD. Would this be useful in Guristas Agent and Serpentis Base?
should make it very easy to catch the gurista agent, but probably not a great idea unless you have a second ship in mission to do damage. Daredevil, nergal, and enyo can all catch it pretty easily and do a lot of damage too.
serp base, doubt it, frig mwds burn out quick, and they wont have the tank or damage to really deal with the talos

Polarized Claw can do the Serpentis Base, but you need to do the close orbits manually and it’s prone to screw-ups. You can repair the MWD while grinding down the rats, a couple heated cycles for each should be enough. Give it a shot on SiSi if you’d like.
Garmur can do it too :
Here’s a video (sorry for potato quality) with me doing it, it’s cap stable, doesn’t need to be heated and can do it relatively quickly but it’s grossly overtanked.
I know there’s a succubus fit out there somewhere and I’ve thought about retributions for it too.
I was actually just messing around with the garmur earlier, since garmur does pretty good dps, has pure damage, is very fast, and has the scram range bonus.
this is what I threw together in pyfa, haven’t tried it yet. hits 6km/s with a heated mwd and has 15km base scram range. Can probably catch it with one mwd cycle if you get lucky.

While I’m at it, talking about guristas.
I also have an ikitursa fit for Anomic Base Guristas.
It does the mission within 15min (somewhat slower than the vigilant), doesn’t need heat nor managing modules and is cap stable.
Here’s the video of me doing it :

I think that’s probably the way to go, can also do a cheap armor version too with the super cheap coreli rep.

Scrolled up a bit and found people thinking armor daredevil doesn’t work against Burner Dramiel unless you fit all four low slots for tank.
This actually isn’t true. The old fit still works. You just need to overheat all tank and guns, and you should be able to kill it without getting under 20% armor.
Or alternatively, I’ve come up with this fit:
[Daredevil, Dramiel Burner Daredevil]
Domination Explosive Armor Hardener
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Coreli A-Type Small Armor Repairer
Centii A-Type Small Armor Repairer
Stasis Webifier II
Small Capacitor Booster II

It has enough tank to match the paper dps of the dramiel with just the hardener heated, and it is actually cheaper than the old fit. Overheating Cap Booster required.
But still I guess the shield buffer one is faster. I haven’t found the fit here, can somebody link it?
no idea if the old one works, the shield tank one is cheap and super effective.

Today when I was facing the burner Jaguar something interesting happened.
I preheated the hardener but forgot to activate it. I first ran my rep cold and for the sake of miracle that he was applying damage very poorly this run so he was just slowly breaking my tank. Still I didn’t notice my hardener off (because he sometimes slowly breaks my tank slowly with my hardener on and heated anyway) so I just heated my rep. After a while he started applying damage better and I was panicing, thinking “Holyshit, I’ve already heated all my tanks and he’s still at half shield. At this rate I’m going lose the dps race and lose this half a billion ship!” Only at this moment, I found my hardener off lol. I activated it, with heat on. But the crisis didn’t end yet! I already burned my rep quite a lot and at the end of the first cycle of the hardener, my rep burnt out! Thankfully the Jaguar was dead after just one more cycle of my gun.
And it dropped 5mil.
Burners and all missions have had there LP and payouts reduced by 90%…on sisi.
ccp is just dumb. period

I’ve been expecting a burner nerf for years, 90% though, yikes!

its not only burner. all missions seems like capped at 1k lp
ccp delivers more and more reasons to go alpha
its a bug, calm down miners.
damsel in distress level 4 can be done on tristan? blitz
Came up with a few Raptor fits for doing the Gurista agent as I feel existing fits are somewhat intense on the execution front and I have previously burned out my MWD doing the mission in an Enyo. Also interceptors are cool.

Time to kill: About 3 minutes from warp-in
Turn on the hardener in warp, keep at range 1500 m and turn on the MWD at warp-in. OH next cycle and land scram. Shut down the MWD and settle into orbit at 1250 m as soon as possible. The ship is agile enough not to overshoot without needing further input. Start heating the hardener. You may need to manage overheat on your hardener at times, try to ensure that your hardener is heated at the 25-33% shields range.
Most of the shield is depleted throughout the fight, if you find that your shield has gone below 50-60% by the time you settle into orbit, consider MWDing out and trying again. Once your shields are down, you’ll probably get two-shot through armor and structure.

I actually used a fit with Pithi booster on Singularity but this should also work, that said you should probably test it yourself. Strategy is similar to other setup, I think the biggest danger is forgetting to turn on the booster at the correct time.
got a few Caldary Navy drops here and there worth 70-90 mil here and there, pretty good drops!!
