With the new af buff, was wondering what's the new average run time for lvl3s with afs. was thinking about going enyo blasters or wolf a/cs, rats to dmg type respectively. I prefer not to ship up to bcs because i'll be running them in lo-sec. Any ideas is appreciated.

People give me a hard time for it, (ALOT). But I run the Enyo with rails very often. Its not as terrible as you might imagine in many situations, even PVE.

Just something to think about for your level 3's. The added flexibility of your increased range with rails can be very helpful. I like to carry thorium if I need to reach out further otherwise I run antimatter 125mm's.

A whole lot slower than a BC or similar. Not only will you be doing a whole lot less raw damage, you'll have to waste a lot of time getting into frigate range with just about every rat you shoot.

Being in the mission deadspace longer actually puts you at more risk in lowsec, as there will be a larger window for somebody to spot you and then to get probes out to find you.

Yeah, but the faster align time and lower sig gives you more of a chance to GTFO before someone warps in and locks you.

Use an ishkur, let the drones do most of the work. :)
