How to fund this loadout with PLEX:
*You may only sell PLEX for ISK via the CCP Secure Transfer Method You need to upgrade your Flash Player
Before you say "You can use MWD in missions" let me explain that it has been changed that you can in fact use MWD in missions (not all IE Recon...). I used this in Serpentis Extravaganza Level 4 and melted all the battleships no problem, got through the mission in about 20 minutes.
(This is fit to fight Serpentis, hardeners changed per rat type) All level 4 Stats: -Tank: 475 vs Serpentis -DPS: 811 Strategy: 1. Turn on MWD and approach rat 2. Turn off MWD when within range and orbit rat at 2,000km 3. Turn off MWD and turn on repper 4. Turn on blasters and send drones after smaller ships 5. Rinse... Repeat... Don't say "Megathron or Dominix will do better" Unless you have T2 Rails with high skills you won't be able to match that DPS and tank even close. It is much easier to train T2 Medium blasters and it costs about the same as a BS and plus it is much faster warping in/out and to new missions etc... so over time it saves ISK/hour. Also being webbed is no problem because you just let drones loose on the webber and make short work of them, also you tank 475 DPS so you can almost just tank sitting still... Enjoy :) |

just use an ishtar...
lol jk
I bet it tanks fine with just 1 kin and 1 therm hardener. put on another magstab for deeps?
I suppose you could do that, but it isn't meant to speed tank, but yes that could probably work but for harder missions such as The Blockade I would keep the extra hardener on. -

*UPDATE*
Just ran The Blockade level 4 with exact fit and completed in exactly 45 minutes, didn't have any trouble. I don't have all level 5 skills either so it can only be better. -

I have mixed feelings about Deimos doing missions. I have used this ship for a while some time ago and while dps is really nice for its size and skills the tank is rather thin (have you tried Worlds Collide already?).
Your argument about skill requirements for T2 big guns is valid but to the point. Training takes time, yes, but when trained you basically double your ISK/hr. The Blockade you mentioned, 45 min to completion doesn't impress me much when I'm trying to beat it in 20 minutes with Kronos (tough call, usually I end within 25). So I'd say that it's okay to use the Deimos but under condition that during this time you train for big stuff.

You have a valid point, a Kronos/Vindicator will always beat the Deimos with DPS/tank but you can't beat the fact that the Diemos only costs 140mill vs 1bill+ for a Kronos/Vindicator. It does its job well for being a 140mill level 4 mission runner.
I myself might buy a Vindicator for level 4 missions but I was just testing this fit out and it works well. -

Unless the ship is stupidly expensive I don't take note of the price argument. 1 bil (or mld in those parts of the world which recognize SI units) is not that big deal. Even if you pay through nose for the missioning ship, you usually don't loose it if you know what are you doing. Thus it's rather kind of investment which you can have back after a while, this way or another.
But even taking this argument, the fact you can't beat is that for similar price Ishtar is much better suited for the job.
Anyway, while I keep my opinion that this ship is rather poor choice for doing L4 missions, as Deimoses go your fitting looks good.
