EVE Online - The Learning Curve for Level 4 Missions

[@northstar7631]

Why are you using both shield boost and armor repair? The Domi is an armor ship so you don't need to worry about your shields. You do need drones in a Domi, so focus your large guns on cruisers and battleships, while your small drones on frigs, alternatively, micro jump drive and have your sentinel drones pick off targets from 100km away

[@Expedishun]

The Dominix has also been stripped and sold, so I dont need to worry about a bad fitting on it :P

[@evokeone]

I did lvl 4 missions in a Tengu for years, it may not be the fastest ship but I loved it. I would recommend removing 1 or 2 shield mods, and adding a target painter or missle computer.

[@evokeone]

And... with the shield hardeners, if you can tank with 2 Multispectrums that's fine, but you could google the mission and fit the specific hardeners

[@Expedishun]

Yea, since I've gotten comfortable with the fit, I have been playing about with it a bit, to see what works and what doesnt, will try it with a Missile computer or target painter and see how it goes

[@kensaiix]

the old fits are still viable, because the missions content has not changed. get a good ol' raven or variant thereof and be happy

[@denleerhodes8116]

Is this still working?, I'm using a Tengu with HAMs not much different to this to solo event sites.

[@rayderrich]

I have ran level 4 missions in a Raven and Raven Navy Issue for years, and admit I lost a few but it was fun and worth it. But I should have focussed on training towards a Golem way sooner as now that I fly that life got super easy. You will get there.

[@up0820]

I came close to losing a Raven, had a friend lose a Navy Raven, I never lost one, the last ship I lost in a mission was a punisher. I love my Golem.

[@MrKinglyProductions]

Lvl 4 missions I suggest Tengu, Machariel, Vargur and have a merganser for the burner missions

[@RianD-xp3kk]

I recommend staying with the Tengu till you get a Marauder. But stay away from the L4 Worlds Collide and bonus rooms. I tried Worlds Collide in my Tengu once and had to leave and come back with my Kronos. I suppose it's possible but you'd really need to know what your doing. And forget about bonus rooms till Marauder.

[@Expedishun]

Yea starting to work towards a Marauder now, gonna take a while tho hahah

[@TroyMackay]

Dual boxing a couple of Praxes chews through lvl4s pretty quick. Good to experiment with different weapon systems (meta is fine and fits), I like rails+drones or RHML. 4 MTUs and room for a double flight of salvage drones cleans up after. Remote shield booster helps swap aggro.

[@Expedishun]

I am not a massive fan of the praxis tbh. It’s probably cause I’ve never had a fit that suits me, so maybe when I find one for me, I will give it a shot.

[@TroyMackay]

@@Expedishun for sure, there are better options once you know what you want to specialise in. It's a lot of bang for your ISK+skills, though. Marauder DPS for about the outlay of a normal T1 battleship. Burners also become much cheaper with two. Almost seems like cheating...

[@Darth0308]

Yes, training up multiple characters on multiple accounts and operating them yourself at the same time will make anything easier. 🙄 Your operating a group, not fitting out a ship and running it solo. After you say "multibox" everything else is just useless information. Multibox can be the answer to anything, it's not the challenge.

[@danbuffington75]

There will be ganker fleets on catalysts... watch out for that.

[@Expedishun]

I will be on the look out for them, not worth risking my Tengu over

[@Sinnamon_Heart]

RHML praxis

[@hurdurdur7rl696]

Tech 2 weapons are not that expensive to get :) Bite the bullet.

[@Expedishun]

Sadly it’s not the isk, it’s the Skills. Never skilled into Heavy missiles

[@hurdurdur7rl696]

@@Expedishun i had in mind the "cost" of skill points, not the isk :D
