It seems that as it stands now, L1 and L2 are stepping stone mission classes, L3's are for blitzing, and L4's are for PvP income.

Would it not make more sense for missions to be stepped by ship types with rewards to suit?

L1 to L4 should be stepped for Frigs, Cruiser/Destroyers, Battlecruisers/Assault Frigs, and L4's Battleships etc. Some have restrictions, but no one that can run L3's would ever go back to run L1's and L2's anyway.

If all the mission levels were harder, and based more closely around the ships sizes, then people that want to run L1's in frigs over and over should get a more satisfying mission, with loot more suited to re-fit those size ships to again run those class of missions.

My take on missions so far is that it feels like all missions were first designed as an L4, and then watered down by removing elements, to fit the L1-L3 tiers.

This sound plausible, or do people have a better idea on mission improvements? I just thought this might be simpler to code then some others.

I apparently have no idea what I'm doing.
