Hi guys,
So far I like both gallante and caldari ships for pve, since I have started the game (2 mil sp).

But since I've started lvl 3 missions, I've noticed that gallante ships tend to get in a dissatvantage:

-- losing drones in mission
-- the risk of building armor rep ( I ve read some guides that say this is the best tank for gallane pve) runing low in to cap or armor: To sum up : less ISK and risky.



For caldari , I ve managed to get into drake but
-- i dont like the ideea of having such a low range with missile unlike the caracal which i consider a good ship for pve due to his missile range bonuses or it;s just early game.

Both are good , but my question, Which is better , FASTER at making ISK on lvl 3 missions, and future more, on low - null sec anomalies.
A fit + skills map, some for lvl 3, would be galdy welcomed.

Sorry for the bad english or for the annoying composition...

balance, drones wont use ammo so you have zero running expenses, till you lose one then it balances out.

Monitor Drone aggro and you wont lose any, they get primaried pull them back in. Its been a few months now since i lost anything more than a warrior II since i learned to properly manage aggro. Drone durability 5 is a god send too

As for PVE alot of people prefer shield tanks but Ive used a dual rep domi, rail mega, and Kronos before and they tank as well if not better than any shield ship on the market

Just watch out in low sec in anything PVE fit, people like me jump at a chance to pop those. and sometimes they produce hilarious killmails such as the procurer that solo'd a stabber.

A drake will do very well in lvl 3 missions as long as you fit it correctly. Ive thrown together a fit (im assuming you dont have t2 launchers) . You want to swap out the invuls with specific ones for the mission you are running. It gets about 400 dps, and does damage out to 50km aprox.
