I like to swap between missions and PvP but I am very forgetful of updating my clone. I have fallen back 3 days on my t2 drones and now I don't want to do level 4's again until I have them back. So rather then sitting Idle I figured I would try and be productive with it, and possibly grind up for another corp. I noticed while doing level 4's for the Amarr Navy, that more then half are against non Sansha Nation. I am a low sp pilot and struggle a bit with non sansha missions. Is there a better corporation I could be running with that would give me more Sansha missions? I'm really considering swapping to Minmatar, non selectable damage is quite aggravating when I'm not fighting Sansha. I know that is just the struggle of low sp Amarr, but looking to the future I am starting to question my choice of being limited to certain targets for max performance.
My next question is regarding the Navy Apoc. I am considering swapping from my Apoc and am curious if I should. My skills are spread fairly even throughout support and gunnery, I have 3.5m SP. I don't have any cap issues with the normal Apoc but It seems from looking through specs that I may have some with the Navy Apoc? Will I have a harder time fitting with powergrid and CPU? My normal Apoc is kinda tight on both CPU and powergrid.
How about the Imperial Apoc? Is it better then the Navy Apoc for missions? What does it's bonus mean? The skill controlled burst states "5% reduction in capacitor need" which is originally what I thought the bonus for the Imperial Apoc was but it is worded differently so I feel I am wrong. 10% bonus to large energy capacitor use sounds like a bad thing, Unless your weapons are doing more damage from using more capacitor.

You're getting too close from a positive sec status.

Good luck with that. If you do get an imperial apoc for missions, please let us know where that is happening. |

This has been very informative so far!
Does anyone know the answers to the questions I have? |

I get more Sansha missions doing Gallente Fed Navy L4s than I did with Amarr. (Although I think Emperor did give me quite a few).
With only ~4m SP I would suggest skilling for an Abaddon, or investing in a MJD for your Armageddon and utilize those drones instead of sniping with the Apoc.
And t1 sentries are perfectly viable and fine for L4s (I can't even use t2 sentry and afk L4s in my Dominix/Armageddon).

I would prefer to stick within Amarr type mission agents. The problem I have is I'm confused about how to find the agents. From searching around I see that many hold their agents to themselves as some high prize. That is fine, I don't need your personal agent. I would just like some ideas on how to go about finding a decent agent. I keep hearing about eve-agents.com but it holds no more information then agent finder in game. Dot-lan maps should show me that I'm in the proper space for what am looking for, and it does. According to dot-lan I'm in the dead middle of Sansha Nation with Blood Raider neighboring, yet I receive 60% Gurista missions and have never seen a Blood Raider mission. If it's not Guristas it is Minmatar/Gallante faction missions. |

Penirgman(spellcheck; it's been awhile) is fantastic as there are quite a few agents in that hub.
I personally liked it for all my L1 through L4 needs.
Use the agent finder. Set the faction, the security type, and/or the corp.
You will have a TON of choices!

I would have to say it only matters whether or not your in the target space.
I've run many missions for Kaalakiota in Amarr space and I get mostly Sansha missions, with the odd Blood Raider thrown in every now and then. There's the odd merc or drone one. Now that I think of it, since I trained Social and Security Connections to 4, I rarely ever get offered anything but those. Suppose that has any effect? |

Stopped reading at 'missions'.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings? |
