I recently began getting a limited number of l3 missions from the agent in Sisters of Eve (Arnon sytem). As far as I can tell he is the ONLY l3 agent I can work with and he's ok for now. Now I can do l2s with no problem but at what point does opening the l3s comes available?

Thanks.

Generally you want to look into level 3's when you can fly a Battlecruiser and/or Battleship reasonably well (if your goal is level 4's, I would say skip BC's and go straight for Battleships).

It also depends on the mission, some level 3's can be beaten carefully in a well-tanked cruiser, but most need something hardier. Look over the mission reports to get an idea on what to expect, http://www.eve-survival.org.

There is a L3 in Simela, too.

Thanks!! I looked at the agent finder in my CQ and seen there's a lot of them but the number of jumps kinda put me off going. But even if that should I even go ahead and make a trip or two from my home base and just go try?? I certainly want to go but that seems like a loooong ride going but would the rewards also be worth it?? Thanks again.

Yes going from L2 to L3 missions is worth it. Both from a standings and an ISK perspective. Just make sure you can fly a good BC (or HAC) before you try them. Don't bother with a battleship, they are a waste in L3 missions.

If you decide that you don't like missions or that you aren't ready for L3's you can always fly back or do something else in the area.

Don't worry about distance from 'Home Base'. Just take what you mainly need and leave the rest.

The trick with this game is to set up different areas as 'Home Base'. The reason for that is in no time at all you'll soon accumulate a lot of stuff in various stations throughout the Eve Universe.

When you unload loot in station, you can either reprocess the modules into minerals or just let the items stack up. Then once every couple of months you can go collect up everything in an Industrial ship and haul it all to market.
