Hi friends, i'm a new player,with main role explorer, ho wants to try the militar profession(vs PVE) and i want to know what ship fitts me the most. I want something with long range, good shields,but not really tanky, and an equilibrate amount of dammage. I have a lot of money beacuse of a friend (900.000,000) so money doesnt have to be a big problem(but if the ship cost less than 30 millions it will be a pleasure) Thank you o/

I think a caracal would probably be a good choice. Caldari ships do the pve thing really well. A decent fit shouldn't break the bank.

For missions it honestly depends on what level your doing,

For level one using Frigates or Dessies
For Level Two you would need Dessies or Cruisers
For Level Three it would be Cruisers or Battlecruisers
For Level Four you want T3 Cruiser or Battleships,


Thats not a set in stone either. You can run missions with pretty much anything, It's possible to run a level 4 mission with an assault frigate once your skills are up to snuff.

Actual ships wise though, Caldari are good solid choice for a while now. The Raven being a stereotypical mission running battleships. However other ships like the Domi are decent at running missions. It largely up to your personal tastes. Do you like Swarms of Mini Death, or like launching fiery **** you's at your NPC Rats. Do you want to ratta tat tat the rats with a Tempest? Or Pew pew with Amarr Lazors?

If you want something Tanky and shields, a HML Drake would be a good choice to work towards. Start with a Kestral, move to Caracle, next the Drake, than the Raven, and after that move to a Tengu, and End with a Golem. Keep in mind though once you get to Tengu's and Golems you should be running Sites in C4/5 Wormholes or something along those lines.

Missioning is pretty simple to get around, Non burner missions any how. So don't feel pressured.
