Hello to everyone!
A bit about me: Playing EVE for 4 months on/off! I prefer Missions and Planetary Interactions for now. For the 2nd one, I have all the skills related to it to 4 except advance planetology but main goal is to make everything from these to 5 so I can have a fixed income from the planets.
As for the missions, I recently build a Maller and running lvl 2 missions and it seams that I enjoy it very much but a bit lost for my next goal.
I have a Minmatar Character, but as long I started I figure out that I hate minmatar ships, so I am flying from the beginning Ammar ships. I have trained most of the things for a Prophecy (Amaar BattleCruiser) but to be honest, I dont feel the need to jump to one since I am running the lvl2 missions pretty nice with the Maller.
So... Any suggestions for a ship and skills to go with it? Should I stay to my previous, Prophecy goal or go for something more long term and advanced?!
PS: I know that it's over my head, but a saw yestarday a Tech2 Legion and I was really impressed (Yes, I am the kind of guy that I like the ships first for their looks and then for what they do:P)! Should I look for something like this or forget it totally?! (Since I saw that the skills for it it will take my another month and the price of the ship is waaaay of my limit)!
Thanks in advantage, and sorry for the long read.

If you stick to mission running your next goal would be level 3 ones. For that you'll want a battlecruiser.
A prophecy is a rather tough ship, but it's lacking offensive capabilities. I'd say you want a harbinger instead.
Your Maller doesn't make use of drones at all. However all ships from battlecruiser upwards will. At least for battleships they are a must. So I'd say skill drones next. Skills would be: Drones V Scout drone interfacing V Combat drone operation IV Drone interfacing IV Drone navigation Drone sharpshooting Drone durability

Harbinger eh?! I was thinking of it, and it looks very interesting! I have some drones skills, but the very basics (Had an Omen one month back)!
Harbinger is more offensive but I guess also with less HP? Is there any possibility, with any kind of fit, that a Harbinger will have less hp that my current Maller?
PS: Sorry for these questions, but I am big EVE noob! :)

I don't have That much experience with Amarr ships, but for PvE, I find a nice passive drake works wonders. Cruisers and bigger melt to my heavy scourge missiles, and anything smaller gets a dose of my Hobgoblin IIs.
The reason I'd suggest looking at a Drake ( though it's ugly as sin ), is that it's one of the toughest PvE ships with a reasonable dps, and it has looong range, and no trouble at all with things like tracking/optimal range, cap stability, etc.
I've tried fitting up Harby's, but even with my armour skills all nearly maxed out, my drake comes out on top. More DPS, and way more tank than the Harby. I can easily do Level 4 missions in my trusty drake. even though due to lack of serious missile skills, I take a loong long time.

Sure you could make a fit that gets you more HP on the Maller, but generally speaking the Harbinger will be tougher. However, it is also a bigger and slower target than a cruiser. I'd personally just try it and see how it does in level 3's, if you find yourself warping out a lot you can always keep it for later and buy a prophecy. Or do it the other way around of course. Both should work, the Prophecy will be more forgiving and the Harbinger will make things go faster. --- Drykor - AHARM |

Edited by: Lunatic Shine on 22/07/2011 14:17:58 Thanks to every1 for the advise!
I have on more a question! As I told you before I am a design freak (3d artist here, cannot help myself!!). I fly Ammar Ships so far but I noticed how interesting looking are all the ship of Gallente from Battlecruisers and up!
Is it a bad desicion to change from Ammar to Gallente and if I do, Brutix or Myrmidon?!
Thanks again :D
Edit: I dont have a problem to train for a BC for like a month.
