Missions & Complexes

considering its not a combat ship, you have a fair number of options in terms of what you want to get out of the rest of your modules.

hi: cloak, probe launcher, some token gun. Or salvager, just for kicks.
mid: cargo scanner, data analyzer, relic analyzrer
lows: whatever

generally you want a prop mod as well, preferably a mwd, and your lowslots should give you something useful, such as warp core stabs, agility from nanofibers, or some HP from damage controls or armor plates.

Sisters Expanded Probe Launcher? He is not going to gank someone. Normal Sister Probe launcher is enough.

Are you doing exploration in hi, low or null sec?

In high sec you don't want to fly a exploration frigate, the data/relic sites are just not worth it, if you want to keep flying the exploration frigate you should go to low-sec.

There is a lot of competition in high sec, and what you want to do is combat sites. If you are flying to exploration frigate you need you switch ships every time you find a combat site, and someone else is likely to find it while you get your ship, and might even have time to complete it before you get back.

If you want to do exploration in high-sec you should find a cruiser, and fit a tank suited for the pirate faction in that region. The sites in high sec are easy to scan down, and even with bad scanning skills you can scan down almost all sites in a ship without bonus to scanning.

Flying a cruiser you can still do data, relic and ghost sites, just make sure you have the analyzers and explosive resist in the cargo hold, and refit your ship at a station.

Anyways if you want to stick with the Probe, i would probably fit it something like this for lowsec, upgrade what you can afford/use to meta or t2 modules.

With 1 gun and drones you probably have enough dps to bully most other T1 exploration frigs out of data sites, and you can pretty much destroy all T2 exploration frigs, while still having enough agility to avoid bigger ships.

You should be able to get trough most gate camps without any problem, the biggest threat will be stealth bombers hiding i data/relic sites.

If you you want to say in hi-sec i would probably use something like this:

[Probe, Exploration highsec]
Nanofiber Internal Structure I

Inertia Stabilizers I
