Hey!

Bare with, I am looking for a ship to fly around and have fun with running level 1 missions. Try to keep the price tag not too insane but a faction frigate as a base is quite ok.

I am just looking for input, hoping someone has something they fly with missile base skills for fun.

Lvl 1 missions? Get a Destroyer! You can even fit some Salvagers...

As the above said, use the destroyer. I myself use a thrasher.

.: Highs :.

5x 200MM Autocannon II
1x Standard Missile Launcher II
1x Tractor Beam I
1x Salvager I

.: Mids :.

1x Afterburner II
1x Small Shield Extender II
1x Medium Shield Extender II

.: Lows :.

2x Local Nanofiber Hull Upgrade

Decent speed, decent tank, can salvage, the missiles over a gun slot wss just for range, since I can hit form 30 KM off it made life a little easier. I really don't need to tractor too much so you could even just drop that for another salvager. And you can run the AB 24/7. If you want you can drop the missile for another 200MM but when I do that I get into a mission and I will see something 20 KM off on it's own and I just say to myself "**** I don't want to fly there I wish I had range". But I'm lazy like that and I'd rather not fly off and catch it I guess. Nothing has been able to drop my shield down more then 1/10 and I usually just sit around and let things shoot me.

If you want something a little more interesting to fly ad always keep yourself on your toes, try just using the T1 interceptor frigates. When I get too bored I find myself running around in a slasher or and executioner.*

I got both a crow and a raptor sitting in the hangar while I am skilling Evasive Man V.

Thanks for ideas!

well if you've got the ISK for a faction frigate and want a ship to run lvl 1's in something fun...

Try a flycatcher.

6 missile hardpoints, leaving 2 slots for salvagers/rails/misc.
Tanks better'n a t1 destroyer, has the added benefit of being black and sexy.
But really...thrasher FTW if you're not trying for huge excesses - 7x 280 howitzer, 2x gyrostab the rest doesn't matter b/c you'll instapop everything.

problem with gunnery based setup is I have ONLY weapon upgrade and whatever I started with. PURE missile user with Small Hybrid still at level 3.

Maybe that faction ship looks fun...thanks for all input guys very much appreciated!
Edit:
Flycatcher = 20days to get into..pass

Worm or Succubus looks like fun ships..

I would stick with something that has a lot of high slots so you can salvage, go with the caldari dessie. You don't need the best skills either.*

Dramiel may be fun, though pricey too.
