I am back from a long hiatus... when I left the game I was running level 3 missions for minmatar mining corporation in a Hurricane fitted with cruise missiles and howitzers.

Typically I would search through BattleClinic to find a ship build that best suits the level of missions I'm taking on, skill for it and purchase modules as appropriate... BattleClinic is so different now that I don't see any sorting options like it use to have. If I sort by rating I get builds from 2008 which I'm not sure are even relevant now and if I sort by date I see builds for ships I've never even heard of that have no rating or comments.

Basically I am looking to pilot a Minmatar battlecruiser and I'm not sure if my current build is even relevant since there have been so many changes since I left the game.

Can anyone please give me some suggestions? I typically solo... I believe I'm almost ready for level 4 missions once I get the hang of things again so if anyone could suggest a ship/build for level 4 missions that would be very helpful as well.

Thanks for your time.

Feel free to tweak as needed, but with the slot layout, I thought armor would be a good way to go for a mission running ship. Probably doesn't need to be said, but the hardeners would be swapped out based on the expected opposition.

much better projection means less time flying around = faster missioning.

Obviously replace hardeners for specific rats.

Curious to hear thoughts on this for low sec PVE use. I am particularly attracted to its align time for GTFO.

Same projection, DPS on par with Suki's Cane (although you have drone travel time to account for so not really), aligns in 4 ticks or half the time of the cane, warps at cruiser speed, 24K more EHP but less recharge. Mission room travel time reduced by half due to MWD instead of AB.

Have you thought about a HAC? My AC fitted Vagabond wastes every L3 mish & will do some L4s too.

Then you need to work on your skills. With all level 5s 49.3 CPU and 226 PG remain.

That fit causes a lot of pointless flying around anyway, use artillery.
