I'm flying a Caracal, very good ship for L2, its very affective. Will probably be flying a Drake in L3.
Someone said that for the purpose of grinding standing it would be more effective to run L2 than L3 can anyone confirm this?


L3s are best for grinding standing, imo. Most of them can be done very quickly and give a much better reward than L2s. L4s tend to take longer and are much more difficult to blitz.


Not in my experience. Tallying up my standings results and overall time spent, I reached the following numbers:

Running level 3s in a Harbinger: average of .043%/minute @ an average of 31.3 minutes per mission

Running level 2s in a Harbinger: .069%/minute @ an average of 8.1 minutes per mission

Perhaps someone with superior skills could run level 3s fast enough to make them worthwhile, but for me it was a total waste. As for the rewards difference? It's a moot point when I could get to level 4s at nearly twice the speed, and within a few missions make up for all the rewards I would've gotten from doing the extra level 3s.
