I haven't run any missions in about 6 months or so. I have noticed a lot of people are complaining about them, saying they can't kill warp scrambling frigates etc. have missions changed that much I should be worried about running them in a mach?

The missions changed a little bit. The effectiveness of our drones changed. Our drones are now far far less effective because npc now target them and kill them quiet quickly.

The other big change that people are complaining about is the tracking disruption than Sansha do. Makes turret ships much less effective. But. That is just Sansha, you still have other 3 factions to mission against.

If you are really cautious, fit Large Micro Jump Drive. It will let you jump 100km every 3 minutes, no matter that npc scram you. This way if you feel you are in trouble, you can get out of the spot, then decide what you want to do, quit the mission or switch ship or invite some friends to help you.

Missions are terrifying!

Seriously if you know how to fly the Mach you will be fine.

Nah, with Mach you have nothing to worry about.

But to what previous guys said about drones and Sansha's TD things 1 new thing is rats switch aggro now so using two ships - 1 as aggro tank, second as dps - is no longer viable. But single ship with turrets is fine.
