Maller's have nice resistances and will give you more fitting options, but I'd recomend an Omen to start with.
I usually recommend the Omen to my new Pilots becuase it will give drone experience, but unlike the Arbitrator will give you a better primary Turret weapon system to rely on if you make mistakes and loose your drones (and you will make mistakes, its only nutural when your new)
while your starting out i'd like to recomend the simpliest fit out possible. It relies on cap skills (lvl3-4 Energy system operation and energy management) and mods to permently run a repairer and keep your ship nice and safe while your becomming familar with lvl 2 missions.
Hi's - Heavy Pulse Laser 1's. Mid's - Cap Recharger 1's lows - Medium Armor Repairer, capacitor power relays. Drones - 3x Hobgoblin 1's.
Yes, its a very broring setup indeed, but when your just starting this simple setup will give you a base you can build on as your skills increase.
Once you have navigation skills try a '10mn Afterburner' and a 'Stasis webifier' in mid slots, It will allow you to rapidly catch upto NPCs, web them and then you will be in range with your pulse's todo the most Damage possible.
You won't have the skills for 'Active hardeners', a type of resistance mod that will lower the damage taken from enemys, but you will quickly be abel to use 'membranes' a Version that requires less skills. you should find that using one or two of these will lower te amount of damage taken in a mission, if you correctly match the resistance type, with the npcs in a mission (just ask in corp chat about the matching, You should get plenty of help in Eve Uni)
Don't forget to take every lense variety possible with you so you can change your 'optiaml range'. When you have some better engineering skills you can upgrade to Beams, and a properly fitted out maller. You won't Nedd a stasis web then, could probably leave off the Afterburner aswell, but don't get rid of your old Omen, it'll come in handy for the inevitable courier missions youll get.
Hope that helps alittle, i'm sure theyll be plenty of people that will argue against my advice given in the post, but thats the great thing about Eve, there reallly is a hundred different ways todo everything
