Ships & Modules

Train your main into a Raven or Nighthawk or Tengu or CNR or CNScorp or Rattlesnake. Train your second account into a Noctis.

If you put a painter on your Drake and heavy tank it then you can train your alt into a Naga and do some damage. Get all the aggro on the Drake, bring the Naga in, burn to range and unleash hell with Meta 4, 425mm Rails. Rail 4, BC 4, Weapon Support Skills 4 and a cheaper cost then a Battleship.

You should be able to warp it out if a new spawn grabs aggro by putting a mid sized omni buffter on it, but you'll still want to read mission reports on EVE Survival, drops the chance of being caught off guard significantly especially when tackle is involved. Almost to 0.

If the alt isn't Caldari any Tier 3 would do.

Thanks guys I am really liking your suggestions. Especially Naga, it looks like very nice ship and I am very interested in it. However I was also interested in Hurricane, which I didn't see anyone suggesting. What do you guys think of this ship, in terms of what I am looking for.

PS: My alt is also salvager with Noctis, thx for suggestion though..

Hurricanes good. Has trouble tanking lvl 4's and doing strong DPS but smaller tank for lvl 3's lets it bring its considerable firepower to bear. With a ship tanking for it can make more use of that firepower.

Here is the catch. For Autocannons that means not to much Damage beyond 15km with standard ammo and Artillery is considerably lower DPS then AC's with a solid mid range (30km) but any longer range ammo drops that DPS down much further. In lvl 3's this isn't much of an issue but in lvl 4's there is a lot more range involved in most missions.

A ship like a Tornado has a falloff of closer to 70km with Autocannons when boosted by TE / TC's using T1 Ammo whereas a Cane's Auto's you are looking at 30km falloff with Barrage and 2 TE's with considerably lower DPS.

The Hurricane makes an excellent lvl 3 runner and an amazing PvP Shield skirmish vessel and PvP Armor 2x Web Snare, but you have better options for PvE as a DPS support ship. It is worth training but not in this role.

Ok hurricane sounds like it is similar to drake role so pass on that. Looks like I am going with Naga.

I will eventually upgrade my Drake to CNR when the time comes but do you guys also take 2 combat ships in your missions? Or just solo them with one strong ship? I am also interested to know if this is effective way of completing missions.

Navy dominix 700ish dps - high - 2 large remote rep
- 1 large cap transfer
- drone links
med - 3 cap rech
- 3 drone navig comps
low - 2 x deadspace adaptive (about 80m each)
- 2x deadspace c-type (same as above)
- 3x drone damage
RIG - 3x capacitor size (can't remember the name)

EFT with it and you will maybe optimize the fit to your skills.

This domi wil be set to keep at range the dps ship at 3000+ and have drones set on guard. Rep as needed.

Train remote rep skill and capacitor skills to V(energy em toIV).
Cybernetics to 4 and plug in all +5% 6-10 implant slots.(there is no slot 10 remote rep or capacitor)
Also about 3.5-4.5m SP in drones needed (T2 ogres is all you will ever need - drone nav V and the above fit they move on field at above 2k m/s).

Second account go for CNR 900ish dps - high -7 t2 launcher (or caldari navy till skills are trained
-1x large cap transfer
med - 1x caldatri navy boost amp
-1x X-large c-type shield booster
- 2x caldari navy invulns(only mission i need a 3rd hardner is the assault - swap a TP)
-2xTp'x
low- 4xcaldari BCu
- 1x signal amplifier
Rigs - 3x rigors
Ideally 3d account is a noctis.

With this setup : domi requires little management - pull drones in as next wave hits rest of time leave them on guard - it's tank is good enough for any agro- the assault might give you some trouble but with good flying and management i found warping out is not needed.
Goes withouth saying that CNR rips trough large targets with missiles and uses small/med drones for ellite/regular frigs.

Get to know the missions before you start acting cocky and end up loosing a ship. With a little practice you will get a feeling of wich missions are to be ignored (the score / the anomaly and a few others) and wich missions you must not make mistakes in (enemies abound part 3 and the assault).

All 3 accounts have access to L4 agents and are running 3 or 6X missions sessions depending on number of agents in station.

Doable with ease in a 2 monitor setup.

Hope you will apreciate this info and go over the quality of writting and spelling.


EDIT : moar info and stuff

i have dominix for my vargur/paladin. it is very cheap and effective
dominix have 600+ dps on two good ranges and can give energy or repair armor/restore shield.
for example dominix give vargur energy and vargur is immortal in all missions and storylines. the second good thing is i can easy fit ab on both ships and do missions very quick.

A Guardian. Throw away all tank modules on your DPS ship and rep with the logi. Refit with damage mods, profit.

I use a domi myself. Good rep,dps support and plus can field a tank for accidental aggro as well.

I would say no because 80% of the time it is going to be sitting there doing nothing. the t3 bcs would probably be the fastest way to get some good fire support. if already gallente maybe go talos just to get there a bit faster? (but they are both very similar ships so probably get there nearly the same time)

and with 2 vargs in mission do you even need a tank
