Hi,

I've just moved out to Low Sec, and found myself a system to settle down in. I've mainly been mining to build myself some Frigates(I like the thought of being able to be self sufficient, i know it's easier to just buy them), and flown around belts to rat a little. What I'm looking to get now is a ship that can do the standard combat sites(Non-scanned sites) in Low Sec. But where do I start? I've tried a Vexor in a Blood Raider Port. But that didn't go down so well.

I don't want to bring anything crasy to Low Sec as I'm still kinda poor.

I think you need at least a battlecruiser to do the low-sec combat anomalies (ofc there exist easier ones, but they can also be found in hi-sec). If you really don't want to lose your ship, I recommend you to do the hi--sec missions. The low-sec combat anomalies give you the same bounty as lv4 missions, and not usually have good drops or escalation while lv4 missions also give you isk and LP rewards.

Ishtar and stratios come to mind, but caracals and vexor navy issues shouldn't be written off.

Warp in at range and be careful, a battle cruiser is a good way to get caught.

The first question is how poor is poor? One mans poor is another mans king.

I'm assuming you mean T1 C - BC price range and that you are a Gal player/have Gal skills given you vexor.

You might want to try a 100Mn fit, just say at Range with a Missile/Drones ship and you should be OK.

Maybe try a 100mn Vexor as a start, just orbit at like 40k and keep the AB on, kill small stuff and work your way up.

its not high DPS but i'm sure it will work in at least the mid range sites. RR is to repair drones as they will take some aggro from frigs and cruisers (one of he reason to kill them first)
