I am looking for Bestower and Coercer fits for PvE
I have a total of 1mill SP, and most of those are mining related.

Bestower
I use the Bestower to transport minerals from my mining location to the market, or to refine, so transport capacity is no. 1 priority.
I recently started to do lvl 1-2 courier missions with it in minmatar space.

I don't have anything in the mid and high slots. I would be interested to make the cargo capacity bigger, or make the ship warp faster (sub warp speed isn't really important to me), or make the ships more durable against ganks.
My skills are very limited but I would be happy to skill for something meaningful.

Coercer
I would like to start lvl 1 (and maybe later lvl 2) security missions, in minmatar space. I have absolutely nothing fitted in it, and I have no idea what I need.

I would appreciate if you could tell me the fits/rigs exact names, so I could search for them on the market.

[Bestower, highsec only]

Prototype Cloaking Device I
Small Tractor Beam I

Adaptive Invulnerability Field II
EM Ward Field II
Medium Shield Extender II
10MN Afterburner I

4x Expanded Cargohold II

3x Medium Cargohold Optimization I

Should have just over 24,000m/3 capacity when fully trained.

Amarr ships are typically Armor tanked, so this fit is a bit of a bastardation of an Amarr ship, and the extra resists will do very little for you with only 1,494 actual shield HP. The Cloak is to hole up and hide if need be, and the tractor is to grab cans just out of reach.

As far as faster getting into warp times; carry a pair of 'Nanofiber Internal Structures x 2' and 'Inertia Stabilizers x 2' to fit when your traveling empty. It should reduce your standing still to warp time from 18.47sec to 10.61sec.

As for as getting more capacity, you can have capacity or agility but not both, it is all part of the give and take of fittings.

Be aware this ship will not do well in low sec, it takes to long to align and can be killed by a noob with a snowball launcher.

Hope this will work for your skills.

Things that keep me up at night; Why do we use a voice communication device to send telegraphs? Moore's Law should state, Once you have paid off the last PC upgrade you will need another.

The Bestower is one of, if not the best low skill hauler for the time being. The fit above is actually close to what I use for pos maintenance in null on one of my lower skill alts.

As for the Coercer, I wouldn't use one in Minmatar space for PVE as it's isn't an ideal choice. The rats there, Angel Cartel, have decent resists against EM/Thermal which can make things a bit frustrating, especially with low skills. Plus laser boats are easily the most difficult to fit with low skills so that's working against you as well.

Since you only have 1m SP I would suggest training Minmatar frigate 3 and small projectile turret 3 and head over to one of the Minmatar starter systems, Hadaugago, Embod, or Malukker and run the combat tutorials. You'll be given ships like the Rifter, Slasher and Thrasher which are much better choices for the region. You can run the tutorials in all three systems so you can get multiple ships to play with.

Klymer: I think you are right and I will do just that what you are suggesting. I guess fiting a trasher wouldn't be such a big deal as a coercer. Objective sighted. Target locked. Lasers activated.
