Missions & Complexes

Love the burner mission idea, seems like they are crazy difficult and each one needs a different faction ship + fit.

I've been trying the Guristas Burner on Sisi with zero luck, anyone have any ideas? Tried a daredevil a few times, might have messed up but it went down pretty fast, same with everything else I've tried. My light missiles don't even do damage nor do my warriors, which are the fastest drones, ugh wth?

Also lost a ship on the Angel one with the transport and the dramiels. Seems like there really isn't a lot of info on these missions and they have changed a bunch, just got the Ashimmu Burner, and would like to give it a try just don't have a lot of info out there on how to tackle this one.

Thanks for the help!

I gave some advice for the gurista burner one page back. tl;dr activate the gate, do a 180 hit approach and heat your mwd one cycle, then usually should be able to land a scram within the next mwd cycle. with the 2 speed rigs, max skills and a zor implant you can reach the burner in one heated mwd cycle, less and 1 heated + 1 normal should do it. Also over heat your hardeners so you don't get alpa'd. over 5km/s and the missiles can't catch you so you have a chance at getting hit by multiple volleys at the sameish time.

angel base: vigilant with dual webs and a target painter seem to make short work of it. make sure they are 90% webs, think that means you have to use t2 or faction. I kinda glazed over the tiericide. but I tried cheaping out on fed navy webs for something a while back and using a base 55% web made it take way longer, so now I use 60% webs for just about everything.

blood base afaik the gila still works, just need to drop a low. I suggest bringing a mobile depot and some stuff to refit into a full tank fit, or a gtfo fit, and a lot of extra drones.

overall I think they are well documented, it is just the documentation is spread out all over this 55 page thread. if you do spot changes please do post them. I'm not actively running them right now so I'd miss any changes.

Thanks for the input, I've read most of this blog, and I"m mostly trying to avoid buying a different t2/faction ship for each of the missions.

I've been able to complete all but the Guristas Burner and I tried the daredevil fit in this thread, it's a papercup, I got smoked before I ever got close to scram range, Harpy, Enyo, all smoked. The other thing that drives me nuts is my missiles don't do anything, the Worm is going way to fast.

Anyway, I'll keep trying em on Sisi before I try em in game

if you can record the fight it should be easy to figure out what is going wrong. Heating the hardeners is essential to not getting instapoped and heating the MWD helps you catch up faster.

this one seems to have good execution, even uses a cheap fit. However uses a web instead of a scram, not sure that makes much of a difference https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqTu-gad2J4

The daredevil recommended in this thread is designed to be fast so it catches the burner in one heated MWD cycle, makes up for the tank by adding some shiny mods. I've never had a problem with it.

looks good, if u can squezze an quad lif mwd, do it for a smaller sig. perhaps a mgc for a tp. but you know the basic fit is old now.

Yes

Or you could just fit corelli c-type 5mn mwd for both sig/cap usage , be cap stable and smaller sig.

This is very good advice, especially with a bunch of gankers now going 'freelance' what with code losing a few corps.

That said smart use of undocks, insta docks+autopilot and creative use of in and out gates means you should be safe 95% of the time. The T2 garmur is cheap if you have the skills to make it work so no huge loss.

Also don't forget you can run missions to help other people get standing and get paid decently for it. There's a couple of services that needs mission running pilots for it.

saw you a few days ago with a garmur around osmon and later saw the loss.
didn´t u use dock/undocks ?

and for traveleling always fit inertias and/or nano

did you popped during the acceleration to the next gate or did u fiddle around a bit? had an expierience few month ago with a traffic control in an not heavy populated system which cost me about 500 mill.
