I disagree in that I’ve found the Nightmare to be a very fun and fairly efficient for unstressed L4s.
However, I have to agree that Marauders are just better. When I fly my Paladin, which is much more effective, I miss my Nightmare. When I fly my Nightmare, I miss the Paladins sheer power.
But ultimately, most well fit Battleships will easily solo L4 content in a ‘reasonable’ time. Marauders, especially the gun Marauders, will ROFLstomp L4 content (but you’re flying a big gank magnet, so make sure it’s not sh!tfit with a paper tank!).
Fly what you like to fly. You’re never going to make serious Isk running L4s; major PVE isk making is the province of nullsec and wormholes. So fly what you enjoy in hisec (just keep an eye on local and use D-scan!)
