Stabber is a great first cruiser....I've been using one for a year and a half..kinda stuck on it. Stabber's speed is its greatest advantage over all other cruisers..use that to your advantage. Its faster than a Merlin but a MWD still helps to keep distance.
For NPCs: Two heavy launchers, two long range med guns (any kind will do), 2 small guns (any kind again) or combo with small smart bombs.
Forget the shield booster cause it will give you a false sense of security..then your cap is gone and your dead. Try a small armor repairer (you wont have the grid for a medium). Some cap recharge thingies...the other mods you can experiment with.
For fun put on a 100 mn AB with that MWD and fly like an inty (for a short while anyway) and mount small guns and light missles...this can be fun.

Here's a good thread -
http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=120867
I'm on my first cruiser too and I'm doing agent missions only at the mo in the Stabber with:
4 x 650mm's 2 x Std missiles (Assaults are just outta reach at the mo due to pwr/cpu)
2 x 10AB 1 x Cap recharger
1 x sig-nau tracking mod 1 x RCU 1 x PDU
Couple of drones for close encounters.
With this setup I sit at 20-30km out and just let em chase me. Tracking is minimal cause they're right behind me nearly all the time so I may do away with the sig-nau and try and get the assault launchers in. With both AB's going I do about 510m/s IIRC and unless the rats have their own missiles I don't get hit at all during most encounters.
I'll play with close range setups once my skills get a bit higher as I've read that auto cannons do more damage over time.

Edited by: Mr Monk on 29/11/2004 07:13:13 Dunno what's in em but they come with this cream. I can put it on escrow if you like lol
Anyway, yeah I tried a short range setup to start but couldn't hit a barn door. Am skilling up a bit before trying it again. I also wanna open a low slot for an armour rep before getting in harms way.
