Scorch:

"limited use against heavily armored targets"

50% Range bonus
36 EM
8 Therm
.75x tracking speed multiplier

So if I'm attacking targets at longer range with Scorch, and i burn through their shields, should I switch to Conflag?
And should i swap one of the mega pulses for a missile launcher to deal with frigs that just get too close? Assume I also go into WH space and run sleepers.

Also, it's going to take me ~54 days for T2 Mega Pulses. It'll take 2 days for drake. If I want to earn 480mill isk in the next 30daysish, and to continue funding for the abaddon, should I go down the drake path and head for raven?

I'm Amarr, so i dont have much missile / shieldboosting skills, but I have ~100mill i can work with to get skillbooks + equipment.
If i go drake, should I start here;

and work at getting T2s? or is there a better cheap guide?

drones>frigates nn to swap out bea, for launcher

drake is alot ezier to skill for than a t2 abba so depends on whether u want to w8.

yeah someone linked a low-skill fit for Drake that he suggested I use for earning iskies to get stuff.

so, most everybody has a drake / tengu to pve to earn money in order to fit their BS / DN for pvp?

I used a raven and a domi combo for level 4s until I moved into wormhole space. Raven was really good solo, but so was the domi. With sentries you can usually 1 hit snipe most cruisers and frigs which, in my experience, took a while in the raven. The highlight of the raven was an easy tank and chewed through BS rats. Having sentries and a raven though made level 4s too easy when I ran my combo.

I heard good things about using tengus for level 4's but a drake would be too slow solo. Unless you had good skills I don't think it can break tanks on a few "boss" rats in some level 4 missions with t1 heavy missile launchers.

A lot of people were raving for the golem for level 4 missions but I thought it was too expensive and not worth it when you could get into w-space or null sec and make better isk and have a more fun time making it.
