Blood Ratting help

Hello guys!

Actually need some advice on a fit/hull problem that I have been having.
I am operating in Blood Raider 0.0 space, and do some ratting there, mostly anomalies and some belt ratting aswell.

I am currently using a Golem for that, but I would prefer to downgrade to a slightly cheaper ship/hull.

I was thinking of either a Gila (already own one, and it is pretty nice in the belts) or a Ishtar, because well Sentries are cheap, and very effective.

I am just unsure which on would be better, I can fly both for maximum effectiveness (Caldari Cruiser V, Gallente Cruiser V, HAC V)
And I would prefer a shield tank.

So I want to continue doing Anoms, just in a cheaper ship. Can you guys help me with this problem?

I do not want to fly an Oracle, I would prefer to fly a Drone ship. Also I have no Amarr skills whatsoever.

I'm having a problem similar to yours. I intend to run L3's in an amarr system but I'm a Caldari/Gallente pilot with no intent to train toward amarrs whatsoever

What I tought about is using a Gnosis because of the "free" bonuses to any type of missile damage and 50% to drones. It seems more worth to me then training for a Prophecy, which can use missiles and drones, in any sense, since the bonuses are higher and I don't have to train anything more for that.

I'm thinking of trying that but I don't know if this would be enough for your needs.

a laser armageddon would do, but looks like you dont have amarr skills........shield huh?, well you could take the time to train for amarr hulls and get a Nightmare maybe...

4x DDAs

10mn AB/mwd (optional)
4x omnidirectional tracking links

Drone Link Augmenter II
3x whatever

rigs = whatever, damage rigs, scope chips, tanking rigs all work.

5x curators iis

Warp in at 70, learn which stuff shoots farther. Use garde's if stuff sneaks closer. Curators do 650 dps at 100km or so, gardes do 800 at about 60km+25 (down from 80 or so pre 1.1). You should hardly ever need to pulse your rep. You can probably also squeeze a few rails or beams into the highslots. Sanctums, havens, whatever, no problem. If you do end up taking damage, warp in at 100 and just use your curators more.

I wouldn't bother with gila vs bloods unless you're going for the niche full-passive tank.

Drones, passive shield tank, missiles. Everything you could possibly want.
