I know there was some discussion on passive fit Ishtar and I came up with this fitting.

Ishtar - C5 WH Test.jpg

Turn on DC II and then micromanage Sentries. EFT for some reason does not have the accurate range for the Sentries but it does hit at 80km but at a possible 50% and once below 72km it is hitting for almost the full damage output. You can use the Rails if you want but like others have mentioned its only an extra 100 dps.

9 of these and 2 Basi for support. Warp in deploy Sentries. Basi lock up all 10 pilots, Start Cap transfer, lock up targets and sit back and watch for armor damage. Rinse and Repeat.

I am not sure if a off grid booster with links is necessary as just a squad booster adds a little bit to everything. Thoughts?

What do you think on the fitting and idea?
