Hi.

Wondering what is everyone's fav BC for L3 missions?
Cruisers for L2 and BC for L3 right?

Also what do you think which ship is the bes in terms of speed/efficency.

gernerally BC for L3, although honestly I love flying my Assauly Frig. Aside from the couple BS you run into it has little issue with anything and its fun to fly

Low skill mode: Cruiser for L2, BC for L3
More fun: Assault Frig
Major overkill and insanely fast: T3 cruiser

Had good luck with a Myrmidon fit with dual armor reppers plus hardeners in the lows, cap rechargers and a MWD in the mids, and CCC rigs (guns to taste). Fun ship to fly, you can use pretty much whatever guns you like in the highs, and T2 light and medium drones will make short work of most L3 enemies.

There's always the brick-tank Drake if you want to just throw missiles at anything that crosses your path while you plod through like a steamroller. :)

Railgun Tengu. Not too fast and a nice break if you're fed up with counting volleys. Lol

I've used the Omen in a lvl 3 with a lot of success, but for maximum fun(and not really bothered about completion time) I've used a Coercer. I've also used a Thrasher in lvl 2's with a lot of success, and imagine they'll be perfectly usable on a lvl 3 so long as you know what you're doing.

A destroyer pack is also a lot of fun for running lvl 3's in a group.

Generally, you want a BC. Some L3's - particularly those with lots of frigs/dessies, but few BS - actually end up being faster in a cruiser. My Rapid Light Caracal clears some of those L3's in fraction of the time it used to take me in my Drake. With really good skills, a 'Cane will still do it faster than either.
