Hey, I plan to do some distribution missions (lvl 1, max lvl 2) with bestower (or any other option?) But I don't know how to fit it properly :( That's why I need some help :)

Thanks

Use this for orientation:

[Bestower]

(low-slots)
Expanded Cargohold II
Expanded Cargohold II
Expanded Cargohold II
Expanded Cargohold II

(med-slots)
Medium Shield Extender II
Medium Shield Extender II
EM Ward Amplifier II
Thermic Dissipation Amplifier II

(high-slots)
Salvager II
Small Tractor Beam II

Medium Cargohold Optimization I
Medium Cargohold Optimization I
Medium Cargohold Optimization I

This gives 24k m3 of cargo space with about 8k eHP of shield buffer tank. The shield buffer tank is to protect against ganking, but it will make not too much of a difference. Instead see it as a reminder of the threats in EVE.

In the high-slots have I fitted a salvager so one can salvage wrecks and make extra ISKs on the way. Sometimes even millions when players have fought with T2 ships and leave their wrecks around afterwards. The tractor beam is for picking things up from a distance and when in space.

Whatever you cannot fit as T2 ("II") you fit as T1 ("I").

When you change the Expanded Cargohold II for Nanofiber Internal Structure II modules will it fly faster and also enter into warp faster, and lead to faster auto-piloting. If you fly manually then you should use Inertia Stabilizers II, because these let you go even faster into warp.

In the rig slots have I fitted Cargohold Optimzation I rigs for more cargo space. If you do not need much then you can try to rig it with:

Hyperspatial Velocity Optimizer I - for more warp speed
Polycarbon Engine Housing I - for more speed and agility
Low Friction Nozzle Joints I - for only more agility

Take your time and read all the descriptions and what each module does.

And Welcome to EVE!

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

I just finished grinding this on an alt for standings. you can use all the lows for agility and speed mods, i think the largest cargo i got in a lvl 3 was like 2500 m3 and everything below that was smaller.

You can do level 2 missions in a fitted "Probe". It has more than enough cargohold and is a lot faster.

Level 3 missions can then be done in a sigil (faster) with a full rack of nanofiber for maximum speed. You then carry a few cargo expanders with you for the story missions that can be larger.


Forget about rigs. Even when using T1 rigs each individual rig costs six times as much as the whole ship. if you get suicide ganked you can laugh over what a loss the ganker made by taking out a T1 fitted hauler with mission cargo.

The very sun of heaven seemed distorted when viewed through the polarising miasma welling out from this sea-soaked perversion, and twisted menace and suspense lurked leeringly in those crazily elusive angles of carven rock where a second glance shewed concavity after the first shewed convexity.
