Yes. Gila is the only ship to run these in. My drones have never taken more than a sliver of dmg from these sites and I clear it in under 5 mins. AFK easily, not that I would AFK and risk someone stealing my loot. ---

Ishtar number 4 after 3 “difficult” fits this is EZ mode win for the Mach. Make sure to align to citadel just on the off chance you forget to turn on your armor rep. If you miss a rep you will likely come close to dying. Exchanging hardeners for drone damage amplifiers is a really bad idea. Tested.

this is my loki fit which is pretty much unbeatable i made 1.1bn selling accelerators with this fit so far and the only ship can beat it is a vargur it has drones but dont bother launching them you could probably get rid of the cpu rig if you use faction gyros with genolutions sit on the hub keep everything permarunning you can tank everything with ease sitting still but keep your ab running for the boss spawn kill cruisers on the hub asap then focus on frigs they will die in 2 volleys with web and hail web the cruisers to stop them getting into kiting range never use barrage unless you absolutely have to which is very rare when you need to kill a 30km cruiser to spawn more frigs as soon as boss spawns then web it and overheat guns hit approach so you are on top of it grab the loot fast you dont need repair paste you can just tether to a citadel after 3-4 hubs also just realised my rigs are messed up i have 150 calibration spare so could switch metastasis for damage rig or whatever [Loki, Loki fit] Gyrostabilizer II Gyrostabilizer II Gyrostabilizer II Gist X-Type Large Shield Booster Explosive Deflection Field II Explosive Deflection Field II Kinetic Deflection Field II Stasis Webifier II 10MN Afterburner II Thukker Large Cap Battery 425mm AutoCannon II, Hail M 425mm AutoCannon II, Hail M 425mm AutoCannon II, Hail M 425mm AutoCannon II, Hail M 425mm AutoCannon II, Hail M [Empty High slot] [Empty High slot] [Empty Rig slot] Medium Projectile Metastasis Adjuster I Medium Processor Overclocking Unit I Loki Core - Immobility Drivers Loki Defensive - Adaptive Defense Node Loki Offensive - Projectile Scoping Array Loki Propulsion - Wake Limiter Warrior II x5 Barrage M x4000 Hail M x4000 ---

Personally I can’t see a reason to use drone links, painter or kinetic hardeners/rigs (although I didn’t check damage proportions I’ve eventually fitted my Eos with explosive only and it seems to work best). I’d use a more simple approach with a fit like that [Ishtar] ‘Meditation’ Medium Armor Repairer I or juicier Shadow Serpentis Armor Explosive Hardener Shadow Serpentis Armor Explosive Hardener Shadow Serpentis Energized Explosive Membrane Drone Damage Amplifier II Drone Damage Amplifier II 50MN Y-T8 Compact Microwarpdrive Fleeting Compact Stasis Webifier Omnidirectional Tracking Link II Republic Fleet Large Cap Battery 125mm Gatling AutoCannon II 125mm Gatling AutoCannon II 125mm Gatling AutoCannon II Small Tractor Beam II Medium Trimark Armor Pump II Medium Trimark Armor Pump II Berserker II x6 Buffered tank, cap stable and able to chew through frigates with ease. Also, it may be a good oportunity to use new assault damage control - killing the BS doesn’t take that long after all. ---

What about a tractor in high and a second web instead of the propmod ? In my case the BC/BS appears less than 10km away, the 10mn gives very small increases in speed compared to what the web removes. When the boss is dead, just tractor the loot in. I tried with a grappler and it prevents the boss from moving too far away. ---

not sure but when the boss spawns theres a good chance you will be webbed yourself a couple of times i forgot to keep the ab running and i was too slow to get on the boss with a single web because i was webbed by a frig and youre using hail so you wanna get to 2km for optimal damage and loot another thing i should mention is it seems the loot is assigned to the player who does the most damage to the target so getting damage on the boss is the priority ---

well in hisec if theyre suspect then theyre probably bait although the 2 guys who ninjad me died pretty shortly after to suspect hunters its not really worth the effort checking kb just cut your loss and move to the next site for profit ---

Because drones love TP’s. I’d consider your explosives only idea. The autocannons are barely used, just stuck them on cuz I had the cap for em and nothing else, and sometimes they can be used on the frigs when they get too close. No way I’m trading something as useful as the drone link augmentors which let me speed tank most of the early damage at range while the drones melt everything, for something like another mostly useless autocannon and a tractor beam. Waste of time to hang around looting all of that junk, at least for me. I’d rather head to the next site. The armor pumps would work, though, and make the ship more flexible. ---

So about the frigates… Are they effectively infinite in number, and one should just concentrate on the cruisers and larger ships as they show up? Or does one have a reasonable chance, assuming good DPS against frig-sized ships, of clearing out all frigates that appear? ---

Yep, the frigate spawns are endless. Concentrate on the cruisers. That said, you do appear to need to kill some frigates to get the boss spawn, but not sure how many. So, pop the cruisers and when they are clear, take out some frigates. But be aware that you will need to tank a lot of frigates at once at times. ---

Been itching to try a Gila; sounds like this might be a good introduction. Question: Since I could get the full 50% bonus to Kinetic or Thermal due to my racial Cruiser skills all at V, should I use one of those? Or, is explosive such a big hole on the rats’ profile that even un-bonused, Nova outshines? ---

> [@The\_Larold](#): > > Or, is explosive such a big hole on the rats’ profile that even un-bonused, Nova outshines? If haven’t checked kinetic damage for Galas but kinetic is a secondary resistance hole for angel cartel ships. In missions or belts where you find angel cartel ships, I would use the kinetic bonus for that but I can tell you that the explosive resistance of Gala ships is 0%. ---

A Rattlesnake with Rapid Heavy Missile Launchers and Scourge Auto-Targeting missiles, plus 2 Republic Fleet Berserkers.
