Armor or shield tank? and which weapon system you use on it? I think I'll use your mach recommendation but I'll need to train bit more skills first and adapt into gunnery (got decent gunnery with up to medium size skills).
A Mach is a shield tank only, unless you doing some cray cray russian armor mach stuff. Here is a basic PvE fit:
800MM Repeating Arty T2 800MM Repeating Arty T2 800MM Repeating Arty T2 800MM Repeating Arty T2 800MM Repeating Arty T2 800MM Repeating Arty T2 800MM Repeating Arty T2
100mn Prototype MWD Heavy Electrochemical Cap booster Adaptive Invuln II Mission specific hardener XL Shield Booster
Gyro Stab II Gyro Stab II Gyro Stab II Co-Proc II Damage Control II Tracking Enhancer II Tracking Enhancer II
Large core defence field extender I Large core defence field extender I Large core defence field extender I
Once you get more money, you can faction fit the gyro |

awesome thanks.
So I got an Hurricane for now. I think i can only fit 650mm arty on it right now (6 guns).
you recommend passive or active shield tanking ? I personally prefer passive due to laziness but what's best is best .. |

All BS's other than the Rattlesnake run active tanks (or MJD range tanks but that is another matter). And even the Rattlesnake often runs an active tank. |

Well hurricanes are really bad, so i would suggest you not to use them. Passive vs active... really depends on the ship and slot layout. So i can't really answer that one for you, unless given a specific ship. Hurricanes however are horrible mission runners. As they have low projection, and low DPS. Try and get a tornado / oracle because both are amazing |

I would say ditch the 425's for a tractor beams maybe a salvager or drone range thing, unbonused gus are almost useless.
Rigs, if you're going HAM's use 3 range rigs (2x speed) and if tank isn't enough without the rigs replace the AB with a shield amp unless rats are a ridiculous distance. (EVE Survival FTW) DC and TE goes too for Drone Dmg Amps.
Drones are fine but all Hobs except maybe for Angels, Rat speed is not a problem and you know the Dmg type you need going in. 1 flight of lights and 1 salvage if you feel confident.
Javelin is a must with the Rigs 45km at max skill. Rage missiles should be fine against Battlecruisers as well.
I would fly Heavies if I didn't have good skills and T2 Launchers. Still rather fly a Drake though for 3's myself. |

Don't use cyclone. It is useless, as it is using HMLs / HAM's with no projection or application bonus. Its really bad. Grab a cerb / cruise phoon instead- you will be much more satisfied.
before I quit eve last time I thought it was funny to give my stuff and money to random people so I got exactly 103 million isk to purchase and fit a battlecruiser for L3s.... I can't fly any of the advanced cruisers like the cerb acuse my cruiser skill is 3. so any BC with missiles preferably but I can use all turrets as well up to the medium size class with decent skills. I got better shield skills then armor but I can get decent armor skills in 1 week without a problem. so which ship you'll recommend for L3s?
Depends. If you have 2 monitors, a myrm.
I just went back and did l3's for Amarr. It was incredibly boring. I immediately wished I had made a Myrm so I could semi AFK them ( a lot more than in the drake i used).
Most people only make sentry drone boats. Dut Omnis, DDA's and the speed mods all make lights and mediums overpowered also. A flight of valkaries with a couple speed, tracking, and damage bonus mods will shred levels 3's while you surf **** or whatever other joys your second monitor can bring you.

Some people love getting the most ISK per hour and thats fine. But honestly just run missions in whatever you think is fun and reasonably effective. Its not like you have to try very hard to do L3's. There is a case for truly optimizing things for L4's but even then you can just fly whatever you want really. If you want the best ISK per hour then fit and fly for that. Otherwise fly what you enjoy. |

A very, very fun ship to blitz L3s with is the new RLM Cerberus. Sure, its difficult to train for and a little pricey, but the range is superb, a simple buffer tank with 2 mission specific fields and an LSE or two suffices for all factions and the LMs can hit everything without application problems.
It also leads to an active shield HAM variant as an alternative for L4s and can enter all HS DEDs after the T3 nerf. C: |
