I'm planning to become Bounty Hunter, so I need to know what is best ship for bounty hunter and what's best module for it.
Please spare a nickle or dime. Thanks.

For killing NPC's a raven
For killing pirate's a dominix or vagabond I guess

What about module?
I don't think those are good ship because I heard titan class ship is best, is that true?

play the game more before you begin trying to bounty hunt. But a recon ship would be a good choice a guess.
titan is the biggest, debatable if its the best. Every ship is the best at something

If you're talking about trying to get player bounties, then you'll probly want a fastlocking ship, or some smartbombs to deliver the coup-de-grace after you've done in the pilot's ship.

Well I'm not looking for "the best at something". I'm in a hurry and I need to know what is best in hunting pirates.
I don't want to die very easily, that all I need. I got jak'd by pirates a lot long time ago, that the reason why I quit.
I still have 2 million isk on old char, this one. Trionic Armadoka. I'm plan to make new char. I know it's not enough isk but I can still make more if I know how.

to post more constructively, get a strong ratting ship, make enough to get a spare pvp BS / HAC / recon, go find a pirate corp you want to hunt, then either suicide them in hi sec, catch them in lo sec (gfl), or declare a war on them and try and hunt them in hi sec
you probably need around 200m isk and 2 months training to be able to 1v1 a pirate (though that's an empty stat as most people fly in gangs) and expect to have to remake half of it everytime you die. this is why you need the missioning ship: odds are this will be your income if you want to stay above the law.
bounty hunting is not really a functional playstyle in eve currently. anti-piracy sorta is, but it's got nothing to do with bounties. |

thought crossed my mind, but eh, i came into the game with the same attitude N years ago.
"i'm gonna be a bounty hunter and a smuggler and this is gonna be awesome! :D"
heh, i spend most my time playing markets and experimenting with lolpve-ships, and frankly i find that to be enough fun to warrant paying the cost.

You should play the game more ...
In short, you need a ship called "Raven Navy Issue" with the following modules:
Civilian Light ion blaster
Warp core stabilizer
cap recharger
It isn't cheap, but is currently the best gunboat against pirates.

It was a troll man, the navie issue is a very expensive type of raven, way out of your league right now, and the civilian blaster is the ****tiest weapon in game. About your bounty hunter thing, it's not gonna happen. Skill up for a cruiser, find a corp in 0.0, and start ratting and salvaging. Then start doing some fleet gang. |

And also, good that you're up for a new chara man, cause that one looks really... really "naive".
Anyway, have you picked a race yet? |

You want an Ibis. It's optimal bonus means you can stay out of the range of pirate's weapons while still delivering a lot of damage. Also, it's Caldari, and most Eve players pick Caldari as a race for a reason.

If you really want to be a bounty hunter my suggestion is to join a bounty hunting corp. A good corp will help you develop your toon towards that goal. Besides, hunting bounties solo is no easy task. Most pirates work in gangs and the solo pirates tend to be very good at what they do. You would need to have a lot more skill both in sp's and in experience to hunt solo... a lot more. Team play is the way to go.

to be honest, re-rolling will be a lot of time and effort and no gain in your play. i would just build ontop of your current character and take your time, as it will take less time to get going with this toon than rolling another.
Now, on the subject of bounty hunting, i would suggest you put that on hold for now and work on making cash and working out what playstyle you have, and what size/speed/armed ship you want...and forget about a titan, there corp owned and built, fleet only things.
as has been said, the best move forward would be to get yourself into a bounty hunting corp, and work with them to find out your role and skill either solo or ganged...you may excell in making tanky, unkillable blocks of granite used as a bait-ship, fast small interceptor pilot to get in fast and lock them down so that your gang can gank them without fear of escape, or big chunky armed-to-the-teeth BC or BS to lay the smack down when the leat 2 types of gang members have done thier job?
i have been playing for, i believe, just over a year and have near 13 mil sp, and even I wouldnt go out solo bounty hunting, as i know thats a sure way to get ganked....a group is more profitable and survivable in this kind of work. Take your time, download EVEmon and EFT and work out what skills you need and what you dont, only use EFT to fit ships WITH THE SKILLS YOU HAVE...its pointless fitting them with all to 5 as it will be unrealistic and will take you forever to get there...all in all, dont be in a rush, this aint WoW and it takes more than a month to get anywhere realy good. Plan, meet players, get some practice in with group and solo, and have FUN.
Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of themself without that law is both. |

^^This
Amarr is the tank OR gank race.
Not the tank and gank race. |
