Ships & Modules

Your major problem is that the attached is a PvP fit. I'll go through the changes from low slots to high.

Low
The Myrm has a bonus to armor rep amount, and you're buffer tanking it - this isn't necessarily a sin in general, but it certainly is in a PvE scenario. Remove both the plates and put one or two armor repairers on, plus mission specific hardeners (you should be able to easily omni tank a L3 in a Myrm anyway, but mission specific is best).

Mid
Get rid of the kinetic shield amps. It is almost always complete failure to tank both armor and shield, and it certainly is in a PvE situation.

Replace all the mids with cap rechargers to taste (these will allow your armor repper(s) to run for longer), put an omnidirectional tracking link (for drone tracking) or two and maybe throw on an AB for good measure. The mids are largely up to you depending on how you're wanting to fight.

High
Again this is pretty much up to you. Some people just put drone link augmentors in and no guns, but for PvE I'd suggest putting whatever you're best skilled in, as the Myrm has no damage bonus for turrets. Maybe a drone link augmentor and 5 pulses/rails/ac's/arties (don't bother with blasters unless you have an MWD, and even then I wouldn't bother).

I'd probably opt for arties. Rigs to taste really - either more damage or more tank (no specific resist rigs).

Hope that helps.

This is a Myrm I put together for a friend. It is similar to what I flew back when I flew a Myrm for missions.

Obviously you can use projectiles instead of rails, and fit T2 wherever you can vs T1. But this is a solid fit I have used with great success.

If your training is mostly Minmatar, you could consider scrapping the Myrm and getting a Hurricane. Either shield tank it:



Or armor tank it:



You could also drop the Myrmidon in favor of a Dominix, as it actually does just about everything (mission-related) better than a Myrmidon. This would easily do L3s:



If you have to stay with the Myrm (or you really, really want to for no particular reason), the aforementioned armor fits look reasonable. Here's a sample shield fit:



You could also swap the artillery for ACs, but I like being able to kit a bit and let drones do their thing up close. I've also toyed with laser builds (preferable if you're in Sansha/Blood Raider space):



Also works with HPLIIs and Scorch if you happen to have that trained up.

Any of these are going to be more than sufficient for L3s. Which is the best for you is pretty dependent on where your skills are allocated and which faction you're running missions against.

re-fitted Rosie last night with this;



and got on a lot better - was a pretty cheap re-fit too at less than half a million isk - which I more than made back on a few L2 missions.

I have 3 x Ogre I out to take out any nearby ships, whilst I engage distant targets with my arty's - they were exploding as quick as I could target them.

I'm very happy - shields got down to about 50% at one point, but otherwise unscathed.

I'll seek out another L2 agent with a L3 nearby as I need to build up my rep before any L3 agents will talk to me.

Will play with EVEHQ fitting tool again to see if I could give something up to run some AB as Rosie was painfully slow getting to wrecks to loot them (I know loot isn't great, but when you are skint every little helps )

You would. Your other option would actually be a mixed flight of 2 Ogres, 2 Hammerheads, and 1 Hobgoblin. Using 3 Ogres is sub-optimal no matter how you cut it.

thanks again guys, very useful info - I need to train my rigging skills up.

interesting info about the drones - I'll swap some around.

Asking advice works wonders
