Not exactly, but the mission NPC's can be referred to as rats.

Golem sucks, trust me I have tried it. Even CNR will beat a golem when it comes to dishing out damage, that is because the CNR gets better ship bonuses. You'll just be wasting precious training time if you go for a golem.

The only ship that can solo any lvl5 is a carrier or supercarrier, I used to run lvl5's in a thanatos myself. The problem is only about half can actually be entered with a capital ship since many have gates. Your other alternative is something that is entirely passive tanked, in almost every level5 there's neuting towers which will suck you dry in 2-3 seconds. Here comes the problem, you can make ships crazily tanked, but you will have no dps to actually do the mission in any time that is acceptable. So get a capital or forget about level5's.

Go for the tengu, you won't be disappointed.

fuck all the expensive shite

just go for a standard pvp kite tengu and tweak it a little

I'm obviously missing something... the tengu only has 100 shields, 100 armor... and.. 10 m/s?

How do you kite with that? That's the slowlest ship I've ever seen. Not to mention if ANYTHING hits you, you're dead.


Someone please explain this to me :X

go look at caldari sub systems. you'll figure it out

T3 ships are built with 5 subsystems, each subsystem class has 4 different subsystems, so that means a total of 20 different subsystems that all have different bonuses. T3 ships are as you can understand very adaptable subsystems are not like rigs, you can change them whenever you like without destroying them.

Ahh, I get it. Didn't realize the subsystems modified shields/armor/speed etc. >_<


Makes more sense... I was like... wtf hahah

Even if you get a 99% dodge tank on a ship with 100 shields... SOMETHING's going to hit you... and POP.
