Edited by: Hanneshannes on 18/03/2008 12:01:57 Ignoring everything that has been said in this topic (I love to do that) I (2.5M SP) have soloed this mission in a drake (every part of it, eexcept for the mining part since the drake doesn't have turret slots for mining lasers).
I was using active hardeners and the neut towers annoyed me but anyway:
Drake
7 Malkuths 1 Tractor
2 LSE II 2 Hardeners (Invuln and Photon Scattering Field) 2 SR II
3 SPR II 1 BCS I
There was one stage with 5 or so neu towers and a ****load of frigates spawned when I attacked and killed the towers I think, but I killed the neut towers, thent he scramming frigates (Strain), then warped out with 40% shield left. Let my cap and shield get up to normal lvl, warped back in and finished the mission.
nor probs at all really, but one of the missions that require a bit more attention.

Originally by: Evil Incarn8 ok I have read most replies but cant seem to see a solution other then fly a drake you noob.
I am Amarrian I fly Amarr with lasers and have a few basic drone skills, i would appreciate a solution that would work for characters that are not caldari, dont fly caldari and/or dont have millions of ISK/sp to burn on fittings.
Train caldari cruiser to lvl 4 (about 6 days with +3 implants and learning + advanced ones at 4) and get a drake.
It's the best choice for lvl 3 missions really and while you are at it, train for a raven as well and get your engineering, esp cap skills up for that.

Ypu, warp in, fly away and wait for the BS drone to follow you out to like 100k away fromt he towers, pop it and loot it and fly home.
It's better if you have an all passive loadout because, I dunno, when i got that mission first, I was pretty far away from fitting a BS with 3 CCCs and T2 cap recharge stuff.
Maybe bring a cap injector on an active setup and fire that up when you're taking down the BS.

Lvl 3 aren't for cruisers are they?

There's a large difference between the 2...
If you PvE for 2-3 months, you wont find any missions hard either anymore.

I have never lost a single ship ever since I tried to do recon lvl 2 in a caracal, attempting to kill everything.
The first time I ran into this mission, I didn't know what to expect, I just went about it as I did with every mission and it worked. My hardeners were off yes but my shield held and I was able to finish it the first time I did it.
I've been doing lvl 4 in an active non perma tank raven and I have never touched armour once unless I desynched or desconnected, which happened once so far.

Well missions aren't supposed to be something else than mining I think. It''s supposed to be a way of making ISK, nothing more, nothing less. Besides that, missions bring new ISK into the game.
They're not supposed to be uber challenging I think.

Whaa, when I did that mission (Just by shooting stuff) I didn't have T2 gear or BC5 and only 1 purger.

Theyre not meant to be challenging, view mission running as mining with a skillset that's closer to PvP.

No, I'm just saying, you sound like you find the easyness of the majority of missions annoying and I answered to that assumption (if that even exists)
Don't mind new frontiers, it's not a hrd mission, it may be when you're flying in there in a battlecruiser or battleship with 500k SP but not if you train up for them a little.

The last part is actually harder imo lolz. I tried to go for the objective and then warp out, problem was, I forgot to refit and went there with 3 BCS and 1 SPR in lows. By the time I was done with the objective, I was in armour xD
