One of the best cruiser class ships, the Ishtar can deal some serious damage with drones with a good tank. The Ishtar has the bandwidth to field a full flight of heavy or sentry drones, and it has a 325m3 drone bay, allowing it to carry several different drone flights. With a balanced 5 mid, 5 low slot layout the Ishtar can be shield or armor tanked. Without refitting the Ishtar can deploy sentry drones and snipe, or heavy drones and brawl up close, while carrying light and medium drones to deal with smaller ships. The Ishtar has no bonuses to weapons, so its highs are free to use drone link augmentors, cap warfare, or guns to add DPS. | One of the best cruiser class ships, the Ishtar can deal some serious damage with drones with a good tank.
