I MUST correct some ppl, NEVER KILL FRIGATS FIRST!
You doing level 4’s in BS I presume which means that frigates can NOT kill you no mather what.
ALWAYS fallow this order:
No. The only absolute answer is "there are no absolute answers." If you always do things in a particular order, you will die. Repeatedly. You kill frigates first because they're actually the only ships that presents any kind of threat… unless they're wave triggers, in which you leave them until not-quite-last, unless there are other trigger ships, in which case you leave them until not-quite-last, unless there are ewar frigs, in which case you nuke them at the earliest convenience, unless etc…
In saying "ALWAYS follow [yaddda yadda]" you're doing the exact same mistake as the op: you're assuming that all missions are the same and follow the same logic when in fact they do not.
You adapt your tactics (what little of it is needed in missions – and it generally boils down to a choice involving frigates and triggers) to the mission at hand.

The only thing that makes the AE bonus room hard is the fact that people insist on doing it in battleships or larger-sig-radius-than-God battlecruisers…

you tempt me to try and afk ishtar it. will do! awesome kin/term/ex resists ftw!
(I even have one in the journal!)
I do, I do… 
That said, it's even possible in an armour-tanked BC. A large part of the problem with that room is the sentries and the cruise spam – a low(ish) sig radius and an AB solves that problem quite neatly, even at BC sizes.
