Hi all, having just returned from a very long break from Eve I am wanting to get back into mission running but I don't have a clue what has changed in the last year or two. Although I have re-subscribed once or twice I never really saw what changes to ships and missions have been implemented and a lot can change in Eve in that time.

What I am looking for is a decent level 4 mission running ship and fittings, I can fly anything from standard Minmatar battleships and smaller with T2 fittings. I'll be doing missions for the Brutor tribe. Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks.

How much isk you got? Mach is a great ship for mini missions. otherwise an AC maelstrom will work nicely too.

Isk is not an issue for me luckily although I only fly Minmatar ships so the Mach isn't possible. I'll fit up an AC Maelstrom tomorrow and give it a go. The Maelstrom and Hurricane have always been my favorite Minmatar ships too so that's a bonus. I doub't I will be running missions for long as I'll no doubt head to 0.0 somewhere soon enough but always good to keep a mission runner setup back in hi-sec for those days I fancy a change.

Thanks Cage.

You realize all you need is Gallente BS one to get in a Mach?

If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there.

Apologies for the very late response, never had a notification telling me there was another reply.

I know I only need to train the skill but I have a completely clean skill sheet focused towards Minmatar ships only, don't want anything from other Races on there just out of preference.Minmatar all the way I suppose.

To each his own, but denying yourself the single best projectile ship subcap in the game (apoliges to the Vagr lubbers) is two steps short of Blashemy.

If you plan on staying pure Minmatar, then a Vargur is your next step.

Marauders just got a buff.

Mach has rumors of up coming nerf.

You don't want to train other races which I'm guessing includes ore ships. (( No Noctis ))

Vargur is the best choice.

If you get others salvaging behind you or train up noctis you could go with a navy Typhoon instead.

Marauders haven't been buffed. There are talks of buffing them in the winter expansion though.

Knowing my mod team it was probably a liquid lunch. Smile
