Honestly I don't think I'd bother doing Level 4's in anything other than a marauder these days. Frigate or crusier (T3 included) require too much management. It's a little tedious after a while and if you want to make ISK from Level 4's you really need to chug through a lot of them.


erm... how exactly is orbiting at 100km with afterburner and picking targets off as they approach "too much management"? Truth be told, I actually place Marauders on about the last spot when considering what to run missions in. Tengu is absolutely godly where you have to move around, CNR nukes targets way beyond 100km range, Nightmare and Machariel just melt everything around them. The only Marauder that can possibly match that is the Vargur, everything else is a big pile of meh.

And unless you like to be jam you're going to fit stuff for your sensor witch means slots loss, effectiveness loss, etc.
Tengu Machariel Vindi (use sentry to pop sniping bs) Nightmare and probably vargur (wouldn't take it over Machariel thou) are what you should aim for if you really want to chew through mission sites FTL
