Dear community,

Bought a Gila, as i got it dirt cheap. I had a look around Gila fittings, but all i can find on forums are fittings older than the implementation of Drone Damage Augmentor, so i fiddled around a bit in EFT and came up with something like that:

Low:
2 x Beta Reactor Control: Shield Power Relay I
2 x Drone Damage Augmentor II

Med:
2 x Large Shield Extender II
2 x Mission Specific Hardener II
Omnidirectional Tracking Link II
10 mn Afterburner II

High:
3 x Malkuth Light Missile Launcher
Drone Link Augmentor II
empty

Rigs:
3 x Med Core Defence Field Purger I

Drones:
Sentry II
Ogre II
and the small stuff too.


What do you think about this? Will it be able to do L3´s and easy L4´s?
Thanks for reading.

L3s sure, L4s not so sure, only 2 hardeners?

passive 25% resist bonus goes a long way.

I'd also say loose the tracking link and just stick to using ogre's and let the raw DPS shred through missions. Get a shield recharger, extender or resist mod on instead of it.

Why complicate things when you can go AFK and let the drones spend 30 minutes auto killing for you with a passive tank?

Why take 30 minutes when you could actively fly a mission in half that time?

Thanks for all the valid answers.

I will test it in L3´s to get a look if it can be able to stand a L4.
I also will have a look at the 2 x ASB fit, and may it be for the lulz.

Thanks again for reading.

It will be fine in a lvl 4 as long as you keep moving with AB on.
If i get a mission with acceleration gates some distance away I often jump in a Gila to do it. It's not the most efficient way to run them but can be fun as it requires manual piloting skills.
I usually get full room aggro, approach the accel gate, drop sentries off, continue to gate then fly around keeping transversal to turret BS rats up and range up to cruiser rats. Get your sentries to nuke the cruiser/BC rats first.
Your missile launchers are there to take out any web frigates, or you can throw lights on any frigs on the way to the accel gate, either works.

Watch out for high dps missions like worlds collide serpentis room or damsel in distress. If you **** up the triggers, get webbed & scrammed or just plain derp out and get stuck on a structure you die fairly quickly in a cruiser hull.

It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

Your tank has no bearing on how quick the mission is completed. So why active if passive can handle it easily.

Pretty much that.

I'm not a fan of using a Gila for lvl 4s, you can't really get away fitting 3 DDA and 2 OmniD's making your main dps (sentries) much less useful. A Turtled up fit with tons of slots devoted to tank will surely do fine but dps will be low, and the ship will be slow in which case you might as well get a Rattlesnake instead that CAN fit lots of DDA's and OmniD's.

Either way, don't bring heavies (unless you're doing Angels) but get both Warden as Garde, with 2 OmniD's that'll work just fine.
