Just returned to game after 4 years and would like to know which BC is best for solo or small gang FW. I can fly all battle cruisers fairly well and use a Drake in lvl 4 missions.

Look at Tier 3 battlecruisers. After your first kill stand up from your computer chair and wave your hands like you just don't care. I've come to find out that dancing is an integral part of playing EVE online.

Apologies for the generic response, but it just depends of your play style man, the cyclone and proph seem to have been given a tad more love in the recent changes, but they all work well (even the cane, against what some people whine about), honestly dont know why they nerfed the harby so much but i'd suggest not going for that one =)

The blaster Talos/Naga, Cyclone, and Prophecy are quite good at the moment.

Agree with the previous poster, talos and prophecy are my favorites atm (can't fly talos though). Talos would probably be more suitable for your purpose since it's an incredibly fast ship for a BC. Prophecy has a huge tank while still doing great dps.

Solid Tank. 724 DPS when I fly it. Most people assume the drake sucks now and don't consider it a threat, but I use this solo fairly often with success.

I actually fell in love with the Ferox once I got BC5... really good ship!
