Hi everyone,
Yep an other question by a newbie Caldari about a Drake... Yawn
Anyway, I'm actually flying a caracal and doing lvl2 missions. I have a standing high enough to start lvl3 missions with a Q9 agent, but... I don't have the funds.
I was wondering how much would cost a Drake + Insurance + a cheap (but lvl3 mission proof) fitting?

It should only turn out to be like 60mil isk if you are running a cheap setup. You will start with relatively easy missions at the start and they will get you enough money for you're t2 fits. Im assuming its a passive setup.

maybe 40mil for the drake and cheap fittings, dunno about insurance, although 45-50 mil for the 3 rigs, don't have to have the rigs for level 3s. but once you do have them its very very very hard to go pop in a level 3.

do lvl 3 missions in your caracal. Get a drake. Fit it cheaply. own lvl 3's quickly and gain standing. As soon as you can fly and fit a raven do taht for lvl 4's.
lvl 3's are easy. I've done every one in my caracal. They require some warpouts however the amount of cruiseres greatly improves my salvage compared to lvl 2's. lvl 2's I barely make 1 mil per mission if that. my first lvl 3 mission salvage gave me 3 melted capacitors.
I've got 45m for a drake and that should be enough to run lvl 3's quickly for standing gain.
In my opinion and from what my friends have told me you might as well just run lvl4's in a raven as they took forever in a drake. Save up.

My drake for level 3/4's cost me about 150-180m.
to be honest, you don't need even a half-decent setup for the drake to tank level 3's well. It has got some crazy natural shields.
Lets just say, hypothetically you bought your drake for 30m. If you spent 5-10m on mods(depending on your taste, ofc) then you'd be straight for doing level 3's without spending any more than 40m. You could buy a rig or two as you make some cash.
If you can get some friends together, spend 150m on your ship and you should be able to tank level 4's, with few warp-outs.
Though.. to be honest... if you got 150m for a drake, save up another 20 and get your raven pimped out for solo work >_>
(I'm eccentric?? dnno)
