I favor something that can avoid close range. I want to be able to retreat quickly and keep at distant range to whittle down any baddies.
This is what I will be in until I get into a Stealth Bomber.
I am overwhelmed with choices and I'm looking for help in suggestions for fitting my Comet. It seems that the Railguns may be my only choice for a max distance of 12k or so. What can I look at to get the longest and most effectiveness out of this?
I want to utilize my Drones as well. This ship will be mainly use for scanning down Radar sites. So, with a Cloak and Probe Launcher, I will be limited to one long range weapon.
I am looking at fitting two Warp Stabilizers to help ensure a quick escape, then attack from range so I can salvage the sight.
At least that is what I have in mind. BTW, this is not for this character. |

Why not?
It was what I had loaded into the forum. |

Thank you Kahega Amielden, for that very informative post. I can't express enough gratitude.
This is why I need the expert input as to even suggest the attempt to be viable, in the first place. The Comet drew my attention for the speed. I want to scan down the sites but still be able to get out of town, should trouble come around.
I am only a week and a half into EVE and don't really know what to expect out there. I will take your suggestion to heart.
EDIT : A Harpy? |

After my last post, I have been rethinking my approach. While ISK is not going to be an issue, I feel that I may just be trying to get too big too fast. I can easily sell the Comet for now and focus on other means.
I like the scan, mark and return thing. However, is that any more risky, in that the site may be visited by other players before I get back...or should that even be an issue?
Thank you again for the great advice. |

I'm running a Catalyst right now for exploration. It is fit for everything but I was going to drop all but Radars and go with a smaller and faster ship...so I thought.
I will remain in hi sec for now. I want to try to go lo sec, but I want to get some skills and maybe do a few security missions to get some combat experience.
The Imicus is probably what I will just run for now. I have a hard time scanning down sites and the extra bonus will come in handy. I just don't know where to turn at the moment. Which is a good thing...in a way...as that means the game is providing the entertainment that I need. When choices get limited, the game gets stale.
EDIT : As far as friends and the whole Corp thing....I feel more in my click as a solo player. As a matter of fact, I close the chat down when I log on. I tend to be somewhat of a loner in RL and come here from SP RPGs. Had it not been brought to my attention that EVE could be played alone, I would have never downloaded the client.
I just look at the other players as NPCs with extremely souped up AIs...lol. |

20 sec? Is that all. It takes me upwards of 30-45 minutes to nail one down right now. I suck....
Maybe if I get my skill levels up and get where I can use more than 4 or 5 probes...or maybe watch some better videos on scanning.

I can move them all at once and draw them all in at the same time.
My issue is I end up loosing the signal for some reason....*cries in hands* |
