Mids: 3 LSE 2s and mission-specific amps Rigs: 2 purgers Gives about 1200 hp/s v kin/therm, but much less vs sansha/bloodraiders. Hey,

It's like a pocket Dominix. I haven't tried to melt any other pilots with it yet but it's performed admirably in Level 4's solo w. T2 sentries and T2 heavies. Armor tanked at 93% (+) mission-specific resists. In most cases I'll just drop my sentries and orbit, keeping the speed up I've taken very little armor damage w. repper running. You weren't kidding about CPU being tight though. Not sure if this is your style, but here's a look at the Ishtar from a PvP angle: http://eve-pirate.blogspot.com/2009/06/isht-yarr.html I’m an Ishtar pilot as of this past week, Heavy Assault Ships 5 :)
