I am going to be running lvl 2 and eventually lvl 3 security missions in null, normally I would run a cruiser or something for lvl 2 and a drake for lvl 3 missions, but being in null I would be better in a Hawk, and also less expensive to lose.

My question is this...Should I run a straight PVP fit, would that work for missions? And should I run rage or javelin missiles? I get 210 dps with rage but 9.5km range and get around 150 dps with javelin but around 17km.

Thanks.

It all depends on how safe your section of 0.0 is, if it's quite safe with friendly POSes in each system you can hide in then a normal PVE fit works fine.

If you don't feel safe and don't necessarily have a place to hide if need be then you want to have a cloak fitted, and a MWD to be able to mwd/cloak in case of a gate camp. But you also want an AB to lower incoming damage so then you get something like this.

This all assumes you're doing missions in Galdari or Gallente space, if you're not then the extra T2 resists won't mesh well and fck up your tanking and your scourge missiles will suck. Minmatar space will still be decent though.

i would not recommend an assault frigate for lvl3 missions. they are nice and fast compared to bigger ships but they lack the firepower. if you are dead set on flying a frigate hull, you should at least pick something with good dps like the enyo or ishkur:

[Enyo]

[High Slots]
Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S
Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S
Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S
Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S

Dread Guristas Small Shield Booster

[Low Slots]
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Nanofiber Internal Structure II

[Rigs]

Small Capacitor Control Circuit II

[Drones]
Hobgoblin II x 1




[Ishkur]

[High Slots]
Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S
Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S
Light Neutron Blaster II, Void S

[Med Slots]
Limited 1MN Microwarpdrive I

Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
Small Armor Repairer II

[Rigs]

[Drones]
Hobgoblin II x 10

I should buy an Ishtar.

You know you can fit up a 100MN vexor with a cloak? Sort of a poor man's ishtar.

I just through this up without enough coffee I'm sure it can be greatly improved upon. Even with my crap fit it goes just as fast as a frigate does more dps has plenty of carfo for mobile structures and modd to refit with room left for loot and carries a cloak. You can switch oit rigs and drones for your preffered ratting space as well.
