I don't like drama and so i prefer to play solo. I still get to blast stuff and play the market and mine all at the same time (2 accts).

Yawn,  I'm right as usual. The predictability kinda gets boring really.

I'm just going to say that on the rare occasions I do a mission, I fly a Vargur with a 2-slot tank (Large Shield Booster II + Bastion).
The rest of the slots are 800 autos, gyros, TE and tracking comps, sometimes sebos.

In the cargo I have a mobile depot and tank mods (invul, shield boost amp, DCU etc). On the VERY rare occasions that the damage is too high, I simply refit for more tank, and as the damage tails off, I refit back to gank. Most of the time, you insta-blapp frigs and cruisers, so you'll never get pointed etc.

Easy mode!

The problem is, no matter what you do, eventually missions, just like all PvE, simply becomes a grind.

Better to go to lowsec and pick a fight! :D

BTW, I'd like to know if there is general strict warship classification in EVE (worse->better) in line with such a scheme: T1 -> Navy faction -> Pirate faction -> T2 -> T3?

My mission alt flies a
Machariel for grinding Level 3s for standings - Warps fast , moves fast, and most stuff in level 3s starts in autocannon range.
A Vargur for hisec level 4s - Salvage drones salvage while I kill and tractor, usually have little downtime to wait while looting/salvaging since most of it is done while running the room
Sin for nullsec level 4s - because taking a faction fitted mission battleship through a hostile nullsec gate and/or getting bubbles on stations is suicide . Easier to use another alt to pick up missions and covert cyno the mission running toon into the right systems in safe spots.
