So I finally decided the Dominix is a pretty tempting ship to move to, both for a beginning miner and level 3 mission running. I have a bit of confusion though really on drones. I keep seeing people say with maxxed skills can get 15 drones? Is that deployed and usable at once or simply in the bay. If deployed, how is that possible even with Drone Control Units?
Second, how am I going to fund a ship as expensive as the Dom? Level 2 missions are only giving me roughly 100kish in payouts lately, plus bounties/loot, so overally maybe 3-400kish tops. Is there a better way to fund it? One idea I was kicking around was to pay someone to make it for me with my resources I have stashed away. I don't know enough about the way consumer->crafter mechanics work to know how viable that is.
Thanks for your help, as always.

I got a Brutix, and then ran level 3 missions and got offers and sold loot for the money for a Dominix.

You need to get to lvl 3 missions to get decent cash. Due to speed I perfew lvl 3 for cash as I can do them very fast compared to lvl 4. If your still on lvl 2 missions you shouldnt need or be thinking about a battleship. Most battleship weapons will not even hit the rats in lvl 2 missions and if you do take the right weapons its overkill big time. Battleships do lvl 3 missions easy let alone lvl 2.
The only time I would use a battleship in lvl 2's is to get enough standing fast to work my way to lvl 3. Passive shield tanking guide, click here. |

I want to move to level 3's. That's why I'm training for a Dominix. I breeze through level 2's in my vexor right now but I either have a crappy series of luck pulling good missions or they're just paying me less as my standings go up. So it's tough to make the kind of cash needed for a Dominix

about the 15 drones. You could do that Pre-RMR, but now they changed the bonuses from +1 drone controlled per lvl to extra damage and hitpoints. So the max is 5 unless you are in a carrier with the Drone modules.

Most likely the info on 15 drones is just old.
Before the RMR patch came, drone interfacing skill was +1 drone controlled per level, and one of the Domi bonuses was also "+1 drone controlled per level of Gallente Battleship skill".
When RMR came, both of these bonuses were replaced with what we have now - hitpoint and damage bonuses to the existing 5 drones. --
