Hey
Ive been very interested in FW since returning to EvE and would like to know what other pilots recommend for these missions. Ive read up on a few forums but nothing specificly for Caldari FW missions.
I will be looking to be join the Caldari state vs Gallente but doing some FW missions in my spare time when not popping some Gallente
Ive read that a lot of people run these missions in Stealth Bombers. Is this the same for Caldari FW Missions? Ive heard that stealth bombers are great for the Amarr and Minmatar missions. Would a Nemesis be good to pop Gallente FW missions?
Also, because my character is fairly new, would you recommend on leaving these missions until a much higher skillpoint amount and just PvP for the time being or are FW missions good for ISK at any skillpoint level?
Thanks in advance,
Much love <3 o7

Caldari lvl 4 FW missions can indeed be run in a stealth bomber. Its best to deal kinetic or thermal damage and tank against the same. Enemy NPCs will use damps, so a sensor booster might also help.
However, stealth bombers are only really optimal against battleship NPCs in the level 4 missions. My advice would be to raise your State Protectorate standing by plexing so you familiarise yourself with the warzone before doing missions.
Also, join a player corp if you want to get the best out of FW. |

Its been a long time since I've run Faction Warfare missions but I understand they pay well in LP, especially when your faction is at a decent tier.
You can run Caldari FW missions in a stealth bomber, currently I only think Gallente have a tough time running them with one. They often opt for an Ishtar using the microwarpdrive-cloak trick in my experience.
You'll want to first plex enough to gain enough standing to run level 4 missions though. Anything less really isn't worth the time and will be tough to complete in a SB since the targets are too small to effectively use torpedos against.
And even once you can run level 4 missions, only take the missions where you have to kill one or two large targets. Grinding small targets in a stealth bomber or a whole host of NPCs in a stealth bomber isn't very fun or time efficient.
Good luck and welcome to the State Protectorate.

Abannans is right. As information about FW mission running is not readily available take his advice.
Whilst a stealth bomber is decent in the short term, a Marauder (Golem or Kronos) is definitely want you want to aim for to get maximum isk efficiency. For now get Gallente and Caldari Battleship skills to 3 or 4 and use a Barghest whilst you train up for the Marauder.

Cheap and works fine. BUT you need experience which missions to pick and which ones not. Additionally always warp to mission, abort and then warp again cloaked on minimum 20. Wait a minute, watch dscan, try mission. Watch ALWAYS dscan.
Btw CCP thx for all the bomber kills but how shall we explain all the nullsec carrier bears we are making more isk/h with 3-4 month old bomber toon in lowsec in 30mil bomber than carrier ratting in 2b ship in null?

FW mission PVE difficulties: 1.) Minmatar easiest. 2.) Caldari (easy) 3.) Amarr (covert ops 5 needed tbh) 4.) Gallente no clue but prolly almost undoable.
FW mission PVP difficulties (idiots hunting you): 1.) Amarr is easiest because mintard militia is bear militia. Worst case is that random pirate hunts you. 2.) Minmatar (lots of hunting..) 3,) Caldari (actually hard due to pies and galmil very getakill focused) 4.) NO CLUE ABOUT GAL CAUSE SEE PVE DIFFICULTY.

Thank you for the indepth info! Its much appreciated! <3 Currently training for Nemesis to use against gallente, I believe this is correct or should I use a Manitcore as gallente also take damage from kinetic? |

Gallente mission farmers use ishtars and t3's to do missions. MWD+cloak in all fittings too.

The trolls are real in this forum for sure... This may be a newbie character but don't waste your time and effort trying to troll.
I have experience in EvE but not in FW, so this was a genuine request for information. Please go troll elsewhere. |

Cool, have you tried that search yourself?
Because by the looks of it, the most recent post/blog regarding FW missions is back on 16 Dec 2013.
Dont you think a post 20 months ago is abit out dated?
OR... Maybe you think your a clever little bunny and wanted to be a smart**s? |

Invite all the nullsec carrier crabs to FW to make "isk" stealthbombing single BS rats and watch what happens to the market in under 1 month...
The oversaturated supply will be the least of everyone's problems. |

Fastest way to get your standings up is the missions so even lvl 2 or 3 missions will get ur standings up insanely fast. I fly a manticore for caldari and couldn't do the tech 1 launcher fit for the lvl 4 missions. Idk if I was doing something wrong or what but it seems like I couldn't get out fast enough with afterburners and even then I was taking a lot of damage from my furthest range. I lost 2 or 3 bombers to the npc rats due to the about 15 second warp out time of a bomber. So ive been training for the tech 2 launchers which need a gisti mwd to be effective. From 100km out I should be safer. If you go that route u need to train missile launcher operations to 5 to use the tech 2 torps (which you need). |
