I'm struggling with _effective_ PVE as a relatively new player.
I've made the following findings:
-- I'm most effective with virtually _any_ Gallente ship at 500m with blasters. If I can get my ship to within 500m of "your" ship and open fire, you're toast, doesn't matter what ship I'm flying. (So far, BlasterRax and BlasterMissileTristan (yes, Tristan) have been my best PVE setups. RailBrutix gets my ass handed to me 100% of the time.)
-- I'm least effective at mid-range with rails. I always get my ass handed to me, even with a high transversal (i.e. orbiting at optimal range.)
-- My armor repper is ******* slow. I usually have the capacitance to use it, but without a few 1600mm plates to give me some beef, I die quickly even in a battleship or battlecruiser.
-- I have no fear of Frigates and Battleships as enemies. It's the Cruisers and BCs that hurt like a mother ******. Battleships can never hit me when I fly well and Frigates don't do enough damage. But those middle-class ships, god ****... I'd rather fight two BSs than two BCs.
Out of frustration, I've been training up mining skills. I have Mining IV, Astrogeology IV, Science IV, Industry V, Drones V, Mining Barge III, and Refining IV. I just mine **** in high-sec with my girlfriend (she flies a Tristan with some Miner Is =)) while we talk on the phone.
But I really would like to get good at PVE without getting my ass handed to me.

Missions or ratting? What's killing you, single hard enemies or lots of damage from smaller ones? Do you have active hardeners of the correct type? (This is pretty much essential for PvE)
