The trouble you start getting into with 3's and using regular cruisers is the range...frequently lvl 3's will have spawns farther than 100k.

I recomend a good snipy T2 cruisers or T3 to keep the times-frames acceptable.

OK no problem with a snipy T2 cruiser, but I questions the wisdom of recommending a T3 to what appears to be a newer player struggling to get through. Not that a T3 is a bad choice overall, just may not be the best choice or recommendation in this specific situation. Because skills and ISK.

But training to cruiser 5 for t2 cruisers is a good idea? :P

Conveniently forgetting all of the sub systems skills that will need to be trained AND the simple fact that Cruiser 5 is REQUIRED as a pre-req for the T3' hulls anyway, but nice try.

General rule of thumb

L1 - Frigate
L2 - Cruiser
L3 - BC
L4 - BS

eventually you can use Tech2/3 versions of the basic hulls if your feeling space rich

L1 - AF
L2 - AF
L3 - AF, HAC or SC
L4 - AF, HAC, SC or Marauder

N.B.
L4 Burner Missions and Incursions are different
Burner Missions are ALWAYS AF's
Incursions are BS or Logi (Individual FC's may allow HAC/SC but not guaranteed)

The only general rule of thumb in EVE is: Don't fly it unless you can afford to lose it.

for mission running gun gallente boats i would recommend l2 thorax, l3 brutix, l4 megathron better megathron navy.

some fitting recommendations (personally i prefer cap injected but stable is the safer route for newbies), guns and resistence have to be fitted skill or rat specific
