Missions & Complexes

The 1st reply is a good fit. Copy it. You need rigs. CCC is the way to go, so get 3 of those. Chances are, your skills are on the low side. You may want to consider farming L2's a little longer whilst you skill-up a bit.

Yeah the fit posted there would be better. As said above, you need 2 or 3 active hardeners specific to what youre fighting, the membranes are ok but the hardeners are better for what youre doing.

Rigs will help you with cap stability, which will help you repair and shoot more, which is obviously a good thing.

Dont forget about taking 2 or 3 ammo types to suit your damage to your range.

Please do yourself a favour and stay some time in L3 missions.

DO NOT go straight into a BS and level 4, after a while. Some L3 drop nice Loot like the meta 4 HM launcher or imps. If you get bored do some other stuff like exploration or low level pvp.

It will take about 6-10 months, until you can fly a Harbinger as it was meant.

A speed tank will work in most cases even if you screwed up the triggers. Just take make sure to stay of range of the tacklers and blow them fast enough. Still checking the triggers first to not screw up is even than a great idea. And I have no idea if there are any amarr ships that can speed tank and dish out enough damage for a l4.

I disagree. Level 4's is where you get the money to advance in this game while you let your skills accumulate for bigger goals. You do not have to fly a battleship perfectly either, as they have a huge amount of tank and are very forgiving of mistakes as long as you keep your exits open and have an option (i.e., drones) to remove fast scramming frigates from your near orbit. All it takes is learning the triggers and tricks of each mission, which eve-survival helps a ton.

A low-skilled dominix with dual LAR, cheap faction hardeners, T1 Ogres, Hammerhead II's and a civilian blaster makes a ton more ISK and scrap slow-boating through level 4's than it would ever hope to make on level 3 missions, especially if you salvage as you go, which you may as well since your gun skills probably suck anyway.

You won't have an advantage doing 4s, sitting in a badly skilled BS, instead of rapidly finished level 3s, in a well skilled Battlecruiser.


All those Large XYZ mods take ages to be useful... trust me

Wrong ... wrong ... wrong ... did i say wrong?


first of all, most l3 give you more money than l4 if you dont have enough skillpoints.
second never ever jump into a hull without good skills, especially if you fly armor based ships like gallente and amarr (some minmatar too).

@OP posted fitting looks good, need some Rigs

look up the missions on eve survival

but you really should stick to lvl2 until you reach around 1.5 mill SP. You will get enough money and meta 3-5 Modules to get a better fitting for lvl3. Wait for the lvl4 Missions until you reach around 2-2.5 mill SP and are good enough in a BC. Even than you won't be able to do all lvl4. As soon as you can fit BS with full T2 (weapons Meta 4) you are really ready for all lvl4 (that could be around 4 Mill SP without T2 Weapons).

Cheers

Rigs are definitely your friend, Cap Control Circuits will give you more capacitor, the nano pump increases armour repair amount

My relatively low SP Amarr alt uses this fit for lvl 3's against sansha NPC's

[Harbinger PVE]

7x Heavy Modulated Pulse Energy Beam I

10MN Afterburner I
Stasis Webifier I
2x Cap Recharger II

3x Heat Sink II
Medium Armor Repairer I
Armor EM Hardener II
Armor Thermic Hardener II

2x Medium Capacitor Control Circuit I
Medium Auxiliary Nano Pump I

5x Acolyte I
2x Infiltrator I + 1x Acolyte I

You should be able to get a constant speed tank for about 8 minutes with the armour repairer inactive and about 3 minutes of armour repair with the lasers and AB inactive

Substitute T2 items with meta 3 or 4 items if you don't have the required skills.

EDIT, the 8 minute speed tank is dependant on your crystal choice, some will decrease it, others will increase it due to the cap use stats

TY for the tip on the Amarr drones, Hobgoblins it is in future, generally I run with the 5 lights and only break out the mediums + 1 light for the occasional cruiser I have webbed down.

At least you didn't call my fit crap

After going through my fit, I discovered it helps if you update skills before taking the cap figures as gospel, with the AB, Web and Lasers inactive it's actually cap stable while running the Armour repairer with my alts current skills. :DOH:

L3s are the time where you really want to start fitting a T2 tank, imo. If you can´t yet, you might want to make that a priority.
