RELATED UNI-WIKI REFERENCES

While not endowed with as much pure firepower as other ships of its category, the Ishtar is more than able to hold its own by virtue of its tremendous capacity for drones and its unique hard-coded drone-control subroutines.

Developer: CreoDron

Touted as "the Ishkur's big brother," the Ishtar design is the furthest CreoDron have ever gone towards creating a completely dedicated drone carrier. At various stages in its development process plans were made to strengthen the vessel in other areas, but ultimately the CreoDron engineers' fascination with pushing the drone carrier envelope overrode all other concerns.

SHIP BONUSES

Role Bonus:
50% reduction in MicroWarpdrive signature radius penalty.
Gallente Cruiser Bonuses:
7.5% bonus to Heavy Drone max velocity and tracking and 10% bonus to Drone hitpoints and damage.
Heavy Assault Cruiser Bonuses:
5 km bonus to Drone operation range per level and 7.5% bonus to Sentry Drone optimal range and tracking speed.

Summary

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.

Skills

As the Ishtar is a drone boat, it is highly recommended that the following skills be trained before a pilot attempts to fly the ship:

  • Drones V
  • Gallente Drone Specialization IV
  • Combat Drone Operation IV
  • Scout Drone Operation V
  • Drone Interfacing IV
  • Drone Navigation IV
  • Drone Sharpshooting IV
  • Drone Durability III
  • Sentry Drone Interfacing V*
  • Heavy Drone Operation V*

(*due to the long training time of both these skills, a pilot may choose to only train one of these skills to V before flying the Ishtar, but should promptly train the other as well. Pilots interested in brawling should choose Heavy Drone Operation, and pilots interested in sniping or mission running should choose Sentry Drone Interfacing.)

Additionally, as the Ishtar is somewhat difficult to fit without the proper skills, it is recommended that the pilot have the CORE SHIP OPERATION level IV and CORE WEAPON FITTING level IV certificates, which include (among other skills):

  • Power Grid Management V
  • CPU Management V
  • Weapon Upgrades V
  • Advanced Weapon Upgrades IV


Finally, as the Ishtar is a T2 ship, the pilot should be able to fit a T2 shield or T2 armor tank to the ship (this is required by E-UNI rules).

  • Basic setup for exploration.
  • Scans while cloaked.
  • Select racial drones according to the damage type the enemy is most vulnerable to and according to range (for sentries).
  • Use armor maintenance bots to repair damaged drones.
  • Guns are for fending off frigates and drawing aggro. Select guns according to taste, as this ship has no particular bonus for any specific type.

  • Swapping one of the Drone Damage Amplifiers for a second Energized Adaptive Nano Membrance increased the EHP to 58.9k but decreases the DPS to 691.
  • The guns can be swapped to any tech II or meta 4 variant as desired, as the ship has no gun bonuses.
  • The empty high slot can be filled with any module of your choice depending on fitting capabilities.

  • A snipping fit that can project damage to 109 km. The ECCM module can be replaced to taste, but the minimum anount of CPU left without implants limit choices. With implants, a Remote Sensor Dampener might be useful. Updated for Odyssey 1.1.
  • As fitted, with all skills at V and before fleet boost, this ship has 37.8 K EHP, flies at 1452 m/s (2056 m/s with MWD overheated) and align in 9.2 s (6.8 s with MWD off). The capacitor is stable.
  • Damage varies between 722 dps at 62.8 + 12 km with Garde II sentries to 587 at 109 km (max drone control range) with Curator II sentries.

Notes

In Mesopotamian mythology, Ishtar was the goddess of love and war. Also known as Astarte.
