so far ive got only t2 cap rechargers, everything else is t1. i fly apoc which is not a perfect ship for missions.

give me names of l4 missions which i can do fairly easy with my ship.

can i somehow link my fit from the game without rewriting everything by myself ??

If you only have a T1 tank, you should probably hold off on lvl 4s. Only being able to use a T1 tank means you're missing a lot of support skills that you really do need for running lvl 4s effectively. I would suggest sticking to lvl 3s while you work on rounding out the support skills to let you actually use the BS effectively.

Since you're in EVE Uni I recommend Angel Extravaganza or Angel Blockade

Use this wiki article. The page will tell you what you need to know about the apoc, even a fleet reimbursement fit.

You can link your fit from EFT by dropping down on the little spaceship menu and copying it to the clipboard and posting here. From in game... Actually, I don't think there is a way directly. You can do it from Pyfa as well if you prefer that.

As for your question: you're not ready to fly an Apoc. You pretty much need a T2 tank and T2 light drones to even consider it. You'd be doing yourself a favor if you sold it (or mothballed it; whatever) and got a Harbinger to run L3s for another week or two while you train up a bit. For L4s to be lucrative, you have to be able to actually run them somewhat efficiently. Otherwise, L3s actually pay better on a per time unit basis.

And if you feel like ignoring all of the above advice, at least don't accept either of the Angel missions mentioned already. Angels deal explosive damage, which is the hardest thing for T1 armor to tank. They also happen to be highly resistant to EM and therm, which are the two damage types lasers deal out. Blockade is notorious for killing ships that don't know what they're getting in to, and AE will be a long exercise in frustration if not ship loss.

By the by, this sheds some additional light on your incursion thread as well. You definitely aren't going to find any good fleets in an underskilled Apoc or Raven, so just keep working towards one or the other.

apoc is probably one of the better awful skill battleships because its cap bonus got built into the ship a while back when they added the optimal range bonus. I used the apoc on an alt with low skills. I'd probably go for t2 tank, as the extra 5% resist on hardeners is very nice. dual meta 4 reps should work fine but again its just nicer to have t2.

drones 5 and drone interfacing 4 is what I'd say for a minimum on drones, getting t2 is even better.

it will do angels extra pretty easily (will just take a while) as long as you pay attention to triggers,
