Wow, got some action happening in this thread again.

Thank you all for posting info here. It's definitely helpful and very much appreciated.


That's a very good question, not to mention also very important.

Since I'm Minmatar I only used Minmatar ships. Also I had completed the Event Agents listed in 'The Plan' before CCP did their Ship re-balancing so all of my ship fits were max fit using T2, Faction and Deadspace modules.

The main thing to remember is that the difficulty level of Cosmos Agent missions are actually a step higher than regular Agent missions. Basically that means a level 2 Cosmos Agent is actually equal to a level 3 regular Agent.

Having said that I can only list ship class, not specific names.

All of the level 1 Event Agents can be easily completed in a combat Frigate, best to use an Assault Frigate when you do the level 1 Cosmos Agents.

For level 2 Cosmos Agent missions I suggest a well fit Cruiser. I actually used 2 different types. A basic Combat Cruiser (T1) and a Force Recon Cruiser (T2), depending on the mission.

For majority of level 3 Cosmos Agent missions I used a T1 Battlecruiser.

For level 4 Cosmos Agent missions and also for the Epic Arcs I used a T3 Strategic Cruiser. (The only Epic Arc mission I can't complete solo is the final mission in the Caldari Epic Arc due to the perma-jam being done by Elite Cruisers. I have a Fleet member help with that mission.)

At various times depending on the situation I'd use other ships, such as a Shuttle, Industrial, Blockade Runner, etc. Some missions send you into Complexes that only allow a specific class of ship and other missions send you into low sec so a ship able to use a Covert Ops Cloak module is very helpful (Force Recon, Blockade Runner, T3 Cruiser). Also remember some of the missions require probing and some require Hacking so you'll need a ship capable of that while doing combat as well.

The Event Agent missions can only be completed once so best to be prepared with a large variety of ships to use including a Battleship. Also make sure you have some friends online and nearby cause some of the missions may require Fleet members to complete.

Sorry I couldn't be more specific, hope this is helpful and good luck to you.
