Well, although it's not part of your initial questions, you could try running down some wormhole Relic // Data sites, though you'll have to look up if they spawn enemies because I only do WH combat sites.
To answer your questions in beautiful, neat, numbered form:
1.) Destroyers aren't great ships for PVE, in fact, I believe them to be some of the worst combat ships for PVE, though I may be proven wrong by some bitter old vet who's somehow magically done C6 escalated sites with an algos. Now, back on question, frigates are some of the most interesting ships in the game, and aren't bad for a starting point for stuff, though I would strongly recommend training at least cruisers and preferably battlecruisers.
2.) I believe the function used is "Googling" (That's what I do, at least) ^_^
3.) Missions are horrible ISK unless you're doing L4s, and if you have enough money to buy a fit to do L4s, you don't want the little money it does give you (About 10 mil an hour AFAIK)
So my advice is: look into doing WH data/relic sites in connections from hi-sec OR find someone doing L4 missions that wouldn't mind giving you half the ISK and letting you salvage (It's boring and gives little ISK, but if you need something to do, I suppose it works. |

For the last couple of days I travelled the 0.5 to 1.0 zones in search of Data or Relic sites. All I could find were Wormhole or Combat Signatures (lots and LOTS of them). I'm pretty much in the same boat....and I've actually been trying some "dangerous" <.5 and even wormhole space....and if I'm LUCKY I'll come away with 1Mil/hour exploring. Contrast that with dumb as dishwater mining (in HIGH sec for heaven sake) where I can pull in 3Mil/hour guaranteed (though boring as heck)....
Lower end wormholes turn out a lot less in payment than higher end. Hell, even C3 wormholes pump out a good 60 mil per site, which is something like 100 mil an hour, depending on your ship. (Blaster Proteus is a pain the ass to move around) |
