Hello All,

I read somewhere that a person can make about 100mil an hour running incursions as a Logistics pilot.

Is this true? If so, what is the best ship to use and how exactly do I go about doing this?

Being a new player, I'm at the right place to start training for the right ship.

Thanks to all those in advance who help and advise me.

100 Mil an hour would make any decent Incursion group ragequit. It's more like 120 being the low end with a slow fleet to 180ish or more with a good fleet, plus the concord LPs.

check this site out, they're a great incursion group, open to newbros as long as they can fly something useful well enough. BTW, open it with the in game browser, the fits won't show on your chrome/firefox/whatever, you need to do it in game (silly, eh)

If you're gonna go logi, for shield fleets the options are Scimitar and Basilisk.

Starting from scratch, training for either of these and the stuff needed to fly them reasonably well, is gonna take you something like 3-4 months

I know nothing about incursions, but I can tell you that the T2 logistics cruisers that they use (such as the suggested basi or scimi for shield logi) are widely used and appreciated in PVP, too.

So the in-game an piloting skills that you'll need to train will come in handy if one day you want to try your hand at PVP, too.

Cool, thanks for the input. I think I'll give it a serious look, maybe go as far as looking for a corp that fly in such events.

If you want to be a logi pilot in incrusion fleets, you best train for a Scimitar. Most incursion fleets are shield tanked and the scimi is the choice for logi.

Is that due to its speed, its cap independence, or both?

Suggested read about incursions

Once you read that, join ingame channel called Incursion Public, it is not used for getting in fleet but the MOTD has active list of all incursion communities, their type and prime times.
