Was wandering if you lot think ishould move to lvl4 mission.I have nearly 8mill sp and am in a raven all med and low t2.I have really good missile skills with 100k lp at my lvl3 agent should i cash in my lp and go lvl4 or wait for the navy raven offer first.I am finding most lvl3 missions too easy.

You can start doing lvl 4 missions if you have a basic BS. The real problem in lvl 4 missions is when you get a lot of frigs on you, there a good change you are going to get webbed and scrambled. That's how you loose your ships in these missions. I don't know what type of ship you fly, but take a good tanking BS. I do them with an apoc. I started doing them with under 4m skill points. I suggest you do them with friends, they are a lot easier this way. Make sure you can take care of the scrambling frigs, if you can't, don't do them. There's nothing worse then loosing a BS to NPCs.

You should be able to do most of the missions just fine. Do your research first though, use the right hardners, the right damage type. Always have drones (mediums or lights) for frigates. I would suggest you use warp core stabs at least for the beginning, just to play it safe until you get the hang of it.

lol...i first solo'd a Lvl 4 w. a raven and app. 1,5mio SP and Torps...
Shouldn't be a problem for you now, but at least you should check all aviable info on the mission 'til you get used to know them...e.g. use eveinfo...

Get your mechanic and engineering skills level 4 or higher. Its one thing to spam damage, its another to take it. Equip ad train for defense first, then offense.

I started L4 missions with my tempest at about 6mill sp and better tanking skills than damage/gunnery.
(Minmatar Battleship II, Large Projectile Guns I, Heavy missiles III, Drones IV- yeah I probably shoulda waited longer)
When you first start just dont be afraid to warp out if things look rough...and the biggest thing to worry about is those darn scrambler/webbing frigates. For a raven this probably only a major issue on the missions that you have to warp in from a deadspace gate.
Use eve info and ship info websites to do some basic research as was mentioned...and make sure your ships is insured.
(Side note...L4 Worlds Collides hurts...ive done around 30-40 L4 missions and that the one that popped my ship).
Good luck and have fun.

Lvl 4 missions vary quite a lot in difficulty so until you know them all be very careful. I know i breezed through my first 4 or 5 and thaught wow-easy money. Then i got 2 or 3 hard ones and lost Bs after Bs. I now use totally different ships and set ups for different missions - which while expensive in isk and skills saves a lot of grief.

I'd wait to cash in until 120k LP, that way you can hope for the 8 +3 implants offer and fund better equipment and possibly replacements as you get more into lvl4s.
The CNR offer looks likely to increase in the upcoming patch from the 200k LP upwards, although cost less ISK. You will make LP much faster on lvl4s, but having the 250m+ from the implants behind you will really help.
