I used a Raven sniper fit which was always effective; now upgraded to RNI to increase clearing speed. I avoid using a marauder…too risky to replace if ambushed by a ganking fleet. ---

The Edencom ship tree needs to be filled out. ---

I don’t. I enjoy the RNI. ---

Maybe a Tech II tree, a T3 cruiser might be interesting. A Marauder. To be fair they are already too damned expensive. ---

Varg, instant alpha strike, pop, pop, boom. Missiles just take too long to reach distant targets. It also has selective damage type to be efficient vs different NPCs which L4 missions give a wide variety. ---

> [@Yukisa](#): > > It also has selective damage type to be efficient vs different NPCs which L4 missions give a wide variety. Selective to a point. Some of the ideal ammo comes with a range/damage penalty. If you don’t mind counting volleys all the time and applying target painters - missiles are great.
