What would a Hound fit be for running missions for Amarr, and what would a Purifier fit be for running missions for the Minmatar?


Also, Amarr is T3 currently and Minmatar is only T1. Does this fluctuate a lot, or should I go with Amarr if my sole purpose is ISK from the missions? (I don't care which side I'm on for the PvP).

I have not explored every option yet, but the Minmatar target painters make signature tanking difficult. Range tanking with Javelin torps sort of works, but the damage is so low that killing the commander NPC takes a long while. So far I'd say one has to be very selective in the missions accepted. :-/

Thanks? You didn't really answer any of my questions though.

He did , you just didnt understand the answer.

In a nutshell getting a good fit for amarr lvl 4 fw missions is tricky because: the minmatar npc's target paint which makes speed tanking troublesome so ur gonna warp out many times , the hound has 3 mid slots giving it limited choice for an active tank set up ( u can try armor tabk but then your resist holes are exactly what the npcs will shoot) and finaly , you can try to orbit at a much higher distance but like above said with javelins but low dps so expect you wont finish alot of missions that require alot of dps.


As for the othet side, against amarr are the easiest missions cause they use td's which don't affect missles . Just fit torps ab tp bc2's and thats the basic that you need.


Conclusion, run for minmatar , your welcome

Just because i am blond does not make me stoopid !

I said: Bomber is bad vs. Minnie, don't bother.

EDIT: If you have no other option accept only the Industrial ship kill missions and "Dead Men's Tales" These are the easiest, IMO. Stay aligned. Twisted

I have no deeper insights in the FW war meta game, nor ever ran missions for Minmatar, so did not attempt an answer.

i would recomind the hound for and what to add to it

depinding on skills highly recoming cover opts 5

cover opts cloak II
3 arbalest

samm clarity ward * med sheld ext.... i like the small clar booster just to help if damage is low but i need bosts but other people hate it
1mn afterburner II * never go mwd it increase sig ratuous
1X thermic dissipation amplifier

2X ballistic controll II or if skills low use t1 or t1 and one t2 its needed for damage
1X overdirve inject II I think i needs the speed you should go for 850+ to midigate dmage

rig
small rocket fuel
small hydraulic
you should orbit at 60km+ if not your get killed eazy

amarr is the hardest to run with the tp you will most likely lose 1 every week becuse if you mess up the orbit your intant poped with the tp hits major hard
