Hey all, i would like to ask this awesome and polite community that is eveonlie Big smile for some advice.

I have 3 accounts and am looking to do mission but i would like to do it with minimum hassle and micro management as possible. I am not looking for MAX ISK/HOUR, thats just stressful What?

Is going for Drakes/Ravens the simplest way?

3 remote repair domis. Assign drones to 1chsr and use a target painter to give targets.

+1.

Although if you're already a caldari character (x3) then ravens with rhml's and fof missiles will also be simple and easy, but not as effective.

I use a Mach and 2 FoF missle ships when i do what you are doing. Easy to move from mission to mission, very little micro managing.

Mach pilot is squad leader, i use to 'regroup command' in the fleet window to keep my Tengus/Ravens whatever close with me, when i hear my missile ships announce they are out of charges, it's only then that I glance at my other screen to click on the launchers after they reload. 99% of my attention is on flying the Mach.

Two close orbiting FoF missile ships act as 'Automated Point Defense Satellites' killing everything that gets close to you. i use regular launchers not rapids, rapids are annoying lol.

I think just using multiple accounts for missions is annoying and tedious. Just duplicating the clicks to travel to system annoys me. I have used 2 accounts in the past and can manage that reasonably well. these days I usually have one character soloing missions, and then on the other monitor either trading in a hub, or random web browsing.

Alternate Idea have 2 or 3 characters all in different missions using fofs and/or sentries, so likely ships would be raven (missiles), domi (drones), or rattlesnake (both!). Easy to warp in, MJD away, drop drones and move to the next client. and this way you aren't wasting travel time on all the accounts going to a mission, doing a lot of overkill, and then coming back.

L4s and anything below is easy enough on 1 characther, manage your triggers and use the correct damage\resists and you should nail it easily.

Have to agree with Chainsaw Plankton and Forum Toon.

It's a lot less stressful using 1 character, especially when that character is high skilled using good equipment.

Passive tank and drones would require the least management. Rattlesnake.

This. It's not a huge deal micromanaging 3 characters, especially if you optimize your shortcuts, run Ascendancy implants and gear your setups for mission time (damage application is more important than actual DPS). With respect to a Rattlesnake setup, you won't want to run more than 2 BCUs (you almost never gain anything from a 3rd BCU when using a RHML-FoF setup).

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.
