Running level 4 missions in caldari space, duel accounts - other account using Tengu or Golem i prefer fof missiles. Fit suggestions would be great also. I know 2 golems or 2 tengus would be better but I wanna try something different. Fly safe.

nighthawks have long train times for inferior results. The standard approach to multibox missions would be to add rattlesnakes. (domis at low sp). Theres a few threads on the forum with details, but my understanding is that you assign slave ship drones to the master you control, its easy its simple and that means you can react swiftly when the brown stuff hits the spinny thing.

Complicated set ups that are time consuming to control leave you vulnerable to the unexpected.

I have used a passive 100mn Nighthawk for C3 WHs. Seemed to be fine, not the best ship. Im assuming it would work for most missions if you know what you are doing.

Good thing about passive is that you can for the most part ignore tank and just click the shooters every so often.

If you are flying with 2 of them you can also remote rep and get more DPS ect.

You can swap HAMs to Heavies with no issues.
