thanks. so do you think I should fly the brutix or just get a destroyer/thorax for l2's and l3's?


The general progression is:
Level 1 - Frigs/Destroyers or AF
Level 2 - Cruisers or AF
Level 3 - battlecruisers or HAC
Level 4 - battleships/Strategic Cruisers or HAC
Level 5 - Groups and/or caps

There's no harm in using a more powerful ship in a lower level mission as long as you can equip it with weapons that hit smaller targets, but you definitely don't want to use a smaller ship like a destroyer in a harder mission or it will go pop.


T2 ships can be fun too, don't forget them.




[edit]
There are some mission specific channels out there too

  • L4
  • Help my Mission

are just 2 of them, there are others too.

Sometimes I also get glitches ingame where it kinda 'desyncs' with the server. It usually starts with an armor repairer or and afterburner not turning off/on. I also would sometimes cannot recall my drones back, and the first thing I do whenever I get that nowadays is to dock > logout.

Last time I did this I was in a system with no stations and after logging back in I find my ship (with all my drones intact) on the stargate before the jump to the system with the station (that i've docked and logout from). I dunno how to explain it rather than that - a desync.

If you are desynced you cannot session change, so there is no way it should ever show you actually docking in a station/jumping through a gate then change its mind (unlike the act of warping for example where a desync can show you warping then warping again or have you back where you started). Instead it will do nothing (sit clicking jump for 10 minutes) or give you some message and or CTD.

I was using the brutix for a long time to grind to lvl 3 missions.

with a good fit and proper hardeners you can do any lvl 3 with ease. ( can t give fit now as i m not home so if you need a good fit send me a mail ingame and i will give mine ).

For the myrmidon you should first train more drone skills as this is a drone ship. ( not used it myself so can t tell much of its preformance).

At first I suggest you make a destroyer into a salvager to salvage your missions for extra isk once you start with lvl 3( and go for a noctis later which is much much faster at salvaging ).

I think you can fit a brutix for about 80mil ( including the hull).

Personally, I prefer using Tech2 frigates for level 3 missions. Assault ships are so much faster than cruisers and in my opinion tank better than poorly equipped cruisers. Only problem I had was when I ran into a battleship. I could not do enough DPS to kill it, but BS could not hit me at all so I finished my mission and got out.
