So, at the expectted risk of getting beat up, I have a question with the changes to Exploration (which I am somewhat interested in trying out).
Since this character was focused on small ship PVP, and I have moved it over to doing some mission running and ISK gathering, I am wondering if building up a Tengu for high sec (for now) Eploration would be interesting. Below is the fit I have gleaned from various other post. I get that the Tengu is not optimal, but its what I have the most skills focused to fly right now.
Thoughts?
[Tengu, Exploration] Ballistic Control System II Ballistic Control System II Ballistic Control System II
10MN Afterburner II Pithi C-Type Small Shield Booster Pith C-Type Shield Boost Amplifier Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Phased Weapon Navigation Array Generation Extron Analyzer II
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile Expanded Probe Launcher II, Core Scanner Probe I
Medium Warhead Rigor Catalyst I Medium Gravity Capacitor Upgrade I Medium Capacitor Control Circuit I
Tengu Defensive - Adaptive Shielding Tengu Electronics - Emergent Locus Analyzer Tengu Engineering - Augmented Capacitor Reservoir Tengu Offensive - Accelerated Ejection Bay Tengu Propulsion - Intercalated Nanofibers

i have not checked it myself yet but word on the street is that T3 cruisers are not allowed into 3/10 and 4/10 plexes any more. since this is where the most money is nowadays, you should probably try the gnosis or some other non-T3 cruiser hull instead.

Ah, ok. Did not think about the Gnosis. I thought BC's were also excluded from some sites? |

The 3/10 is cruiser-sized and below (excl T3 cruisers), the 4/10 is battlecruiser-sized and below (excl T3 cruisers) |

That's correct. BCs can't enter 3/10s or lower, but they can enter 4/10s. |

Is there a better universal choice in the Cruiser class I could use? I am set up with Halo's for sig and speed tanking, which Cruisers are better at. |

I'm not sure we've settled on a new best in class for high sec. The Cerb got tossed around quite a bit in pre-patch speculation. If I were to try to set one up to match what the Tengu used to do in 4/10s it would probably look like this:
[Cerberus, explorer] Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Reactor Control Unit II
Gistum A-Type 10MN Microwarpdrive Pithi B-Type Small Shield Booster Pithum C-Type Kinetic Deflection Amplifier Large Peroxide Capacitor Power Cell [empty med slot]
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Heavy Missile Launcher II, Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile Sisters Core Probe Launcher, Core Scanner Probe I
Medium Warhead Rigor Catalyst II Medium Warhead Rigor Catalyst II
Empty mid for a scanning mod or whatever. Very tight on grid. Almost permaruns with good skills (not that you'd need to do so). That would be for Guristas, obviously.
The Ishtar has also come up as a fine choice if you have decent drone skills. Fits are rather varied; high sec doesn't strain the Ishtar much. At all. Gila is another option along those lines.
As long as we're talking pirate ships, there's little the Cynabal doesn't do. Seriously. That thing is crazy. |

As far as I heard, Cynabal is even capable of completing higher-class sites, albeit it's about those that have specific "goal" and don't require extensive cleanup (or maybe even then, as long as you have time for that...).
Speaking of 4/10 and 3/10, it seems that people fly Phantasms as well, although it's for BR/Sansha territories. |

Just to add to the list already posted: Navy Caracal does a decent job with the explo radius bonus. Does need scan alt to milk all the DPS out though. Nerfing High-sec is never the answer. It is the question. The answer is 'YES'. |

I'll have to mess with some fits. I could use the Cynabal or Navy Caracal. Thanks for the input. If anyone has fits for these let me know. I will try Googling them too. |
