Well, Lvl4. Let's say you put your main as the active tank / drone. What's the use of the two wingman knowing I can get half the click rate I will give to my main?

Should I use the wingman as passive tank, aggressive drone combat and the main as high speed fighter / electronic warfare? So I drop the two wingman, just retarget on rotation and keep 3/4 of my time on my fighter?

Or I drop the main as a massive tank / support ship and protect my wingman as both high dps - fast combat. Even if I can give them only 1/4 of my attention, I orbit the tank at high speed and just target and shoot? Tank heal and long range aggro everything?

You know what I mean? For example, can a Maelstrom be such a vessel? Healing and tanking while shooting from a really long distance, while I keep my wingman in 10km range and destroy everything that come to 20km from the tank. I use 4 shield healing drone, 2 for each wingman and leave one drone for combat or electronic distruption?


PS: Thanks for bitting, I seriously appreciate your input guys, it was no joke,


Why waste money on 3 accounts when 1 single account can run L4 missions effectively already.

there are people playing online poker at 30 tables simultaneously on the same screen. if they can manage that, you can surely manage splitting your attention between three screens, each running one client.

The most effective way of running lvl4s on three accounts is to have three passive tanked rattlesnakes, each running a separate mission. that way you maximize time spent shooting and minimize time warping around.

I should buy an Ishtar.
