So I've been "afk" training for a few months now, in high-sec, jumping in every once and a while to do a lv4 mission with my CNR/Noctis combo. My training has bumped me into a wall, I'm not sure where to go next.

Taken from fitting screen:
CNR DPS: 628.4
Drone DPS: 93.3
Total DPS: 721.7
Total SP: 17.8m
Drone SP: 2.6m

Cap (active booster): 5:44
Cap (inactive booster): Stable
Drones: Hobogoblin II's x5

====================================
High Slots:
Cruise Missile Launcher II x7
Drone Link Augmentor I x1

Mid Slots:
Caldari Navy Adaptive Invulnerability Field x1
Thermic Dissipation Field II x1
Kinetic Deflection Field II x1
Shield Boost Amplifier II x2
Large Shield Booster II x1

Low Slots:
Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System x4
Power Diagnostic System II x1

Rigs:
Large Capacitor Control Circuit I x2
Large Warhead Flare Catalyst I x1

Implants:
Zainou 'Snapshot' Cruise Missiles CM-603
Inherent Implants 'Squire' Energy Management EM-805
Whelan Machorin's Ballistic Smartlink
====================================

Comments:
Mid Slots > Large Shield Booster II = I only have $558m isk, far short to afford the 1bln gist ones.
Rigs > Large Capacitor Control Circuit I = Cannot afford T2. The cap requirements are greater and without a new shield booster, it will deplete my cap very quickly.

I'll admit it's nice being able to do lv4 missions in this thing. The range is nice and the missions (70% of the time) seem to be completed in a reasonable amount of time. It also should be noted I always bring in my Noctis after every mission as well. I'm not sure where to turn next. A new ship? Making this ship better/faster/more cap-active-stable? What do you guys think?

Much appreciated!

Blitz: Tengu w/HMLs

Future: Guns, aka Machariel or Vargur. Nightmare is also an option.

Not a good idea: Golem.

Upgrade your CNR fit or save your isk and skill for a tengu

A golem is good but wouldn't recommend for solo lvl 4

Thanks for the link... I always wanted to know what was wrong with the Golem.

Next step: get some friends and stop playing an MMO solo.

And/or tengu.

tbh I went the gun route and I can't stand sitting in a cnr anymore, it just feels bleh! ship is slow, and the dps isn't all that great. mach/nightmare/paladin/kronos/vindicator all pretty much do as much dps as a cnr with just turrets. not to mention can instapop frigs with 1 gun at medium to long range.

my alts have tengus, on blitz missions they are great, on kill all missions I get bored and waste a ton of volleys, tbh I should probably just swap to fofs on those ones...

one alt is an all 5 golem pilot... haven't flow it in probably over a year (okay might have undocked once to see the missile effects).
