But we're missing one kinda obvious thing here (unless I missed it, I skimmed the other replies), if they can't find your ship they can't get into the mission in the first place. Thing is... FW missions create a beacon in space that everyone, even non FW players, can warp to (see second point down below).
Regarding the OP...
- As others have said... PvE in PvP fits (or mostly PvP fits).
- The idea of FW is that it is all about PvP and/or content supporting/encouraging PvP. If you think you should be left alone to do missions (especially in low-sec) think again. Even in high-sec you can be suicide ganked by neutrals or just plain ganked by enemy militia that are ballsy enough.
- Running missions in FW is best done using fast ships with high damage dealing ability (tank is, at best, a secondary concern as long as you stay at range) . You don't need to kill anything beyond 3 or 4 "special" NPCs most of the time so anything that can do more is just overkill. I personally use long range Assault Frigates (which can actually defend themselves to a degree) or Stealth Bombers (which excel at getting away).
- Being in roaming mission groups is the most optimal way you can run FW missions. A few people get a bunch of FW missions and you all roam around, quickly completing one mission after another and ganking anyone who gets in your way. You do not have to share LP unless you want to because everyone else should be earning from their own missions.
- There are different types of mobile structures you can place in a mission area, making it difficult for any aggressor to gauge whether he/she is walking into a trap or not. However... you should ideally be done with a FW mission in less than 5-10 minutes making the use of such structures fairly pointless (unless you want the tags from the NPCs).
- As far as rewards go... if you blitz two or three level 4 FW missions per day you can be easily getting 500,000+ Loyalty Points a week. That's a few hundred million ISK right there. Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective.
