they are dman good for minerals, but yes, make it more large drones, rather than many small drones.
and take away the damn structures that get in the way

i was mostly refering to miniscule little spec's with the hit point's of faction BS's
not only are they small but they can't be hit
i covered my dom with tracking computers, with dual 250 running lead at 30km

I can solo any level 4 drone mission in a Typhoon. I can do it with artillery as well. Use better tactics. Hit them at a distance and kill as they close. Use a webber if you are fighting close range. Know which spawns do not auto-aggor and use this to position yourself for maximum killage.
You have to think and fight smart and hard to do it, but it is easy once you know how.

That is the way of most missions. Level 4s are a large step up from level 3 so you need to think and stratagise as well as just shoot all.
The best way to defeat the supreme drones is to keep them at very long arms length. outside of 70km I think they will not shoot. _______

Just decline the mission if you don't like it.

Drone missions are fine. They are a challenge and if you don't like them, don't do them

I like the ones that drop "Plush compound" or something like that. And I do them in a geddon with allmost all t1 load out (t2 RCU for 7 megabeams, next skill might fix that). The only ones that might need nerfing are the spider drones that clearly use a MWD in deadspace, or need to drop a gisti T2 AB
... you will see more and more marketing which in turn will bring you more players to torture. |

I for one hate drone missions, i refuse every one i meet, usually 3 in a row untill i lose my lvl 4 agent, again, then i click the little "x" at the top right side of the window.
Drone missions I admit make me quit, i hate every thing about them and find no fun in those mission's what so ever. Especially how i have to sit their shooting red + that represent something so small
I do however like 5/10 drone complex's with thier strain mother

The first level 4 drone mission I did I lost my apoc and all the lovely T2 fitted on it as well. The problem I had was I didn't know how to do them properly. So I came to the forums and read how others took them on and now they are pretty easy. With a snipe setup all you have to do is get out far enough and they are all dead in seconds apart from the BS drones. So, you just need 1 refit, from snipe to close/medium range in order to complete the mission.
Not only that, but you get enough mega/zyd approximately every two drone missions to build another Tier 2 battleship. Thats a pretty nice bonus. No, even though I've lost 200,000,000 ISK worth of kit to one of these missions, I actually quite like doing them now.

The point the original poster is making is diffrent. You could always use a titan, though it is worthwhile considering that since such a fancy setup, cosing tens of billions, is available, it still will have difficulty killing off those small drones. ------------ Criminal EVE Guides Evil Genius 101 Guide |

Thats what I'm saying, with a snipe setup the little ones pop in a couple or three hits.

I did a the hardest lv3 drone mission today and didnt get hit once. They didnt seen to be able to shoot further than 20km . The last area had a 1 on 1 with a strain something or other who weirdly armor tanked and was a bit of a toughy.

Well , If you can't tank 'em , skip the mission. There's plenty of people for who the drone missions are a walkover...

Edited by: Dalekplunger Slick on 02/12/2005 16:59:02 Is my level 2 drone mission strategy viable for level 3 missions too?
I passive tank my Ferox and load up on smartbombs and maybe one tiny turret with iron charges. I take a couple of shots with the turret at each group of drones, making them quite angry. Then they swawm me and I fire off all my smartbombs.
Not only is it a very colorful lightshow, I don't have to go anywhere to collect the loot! 
edit: viable for level 3, not level 4. doh

helpful hint: go back to lvl 2 missions
suggestion with lvl 4's: try this setup: High: 4x250mm med rails (named/t2) 2x heavy nos
med: 5x cap recharger (best named you can afford) or 4x cap recharger, 1x heavy cap injector.
low: 5x Activated hardeners (Make sure u use the right ones) 2x Large reps (named/t2)
and..now heres the big tip...use drones! agro spawn, fly away, chuck out drones. set drones on anything thats webbing you first, while you shoot any npc drones that are 15+km away as your rails will track them. fly away from the other spawns so they dont get agro'd.
once all the small drones are dead, refit with large rails to kill the bs drones. simple.

We have 'turn all effects off' fuction already, which is nice, but can we please please get a 'turn off all fog and other visually laggy stuff'.
Please please :)
Its fine but when the many BS + 20 odd drones aggro you it all gets a bit funky, and yes i have a respectable spec PC :)

I have yet to try solo SIlent the Informant lvl 4 ù that one i do with a friend in a Raven and still we have to warp out once in a while ù but Drone Harrassment and Infiltrated outpost i solo with ease with on a sniper Tempest, no refiting needed.
It really is a matter of tactics and knowing what to shoot and what not and when.

The most annoying thing about the Infested Outposts mission is the time it takes to haul the loot...

If there was an instant 'loot my mission cans and put it in station X' command, drones missions would be the most sought after. In terms of loot, its the most consistent of all, and more valuable then killing battleships in missions like GE, they die fast when shot at from a distance!
As said, the looting is the pain, the rest is easy!

Domi + 10M+ SP + lvl4 drone missions = walk in a park
Go for 1x Large t2 + 6 hardeners, and in a name of God dont agro all drones at once, as long as you keep flying away from em. Only difficult part is the 3x Supremes if I recal right.

I've actually been drivin away from level IV's because of to many Angel Extravs. I just don't have 5 hours every single night to finish this mission. Sometimes it takes me a week.
I'd kill for an agent that would give me level IV infiltrated outposts all day long!
