I'm pretty much just using it for lvl 3s atm and no PvP tbh, and I was assuming that a Vexor wouldn't be viable in lvl 3s (tankwise). Of course this char isn't high-sp at all and I'm not sure what I could do with a vexor with say 30m+ SP versus having like 6-7m SP. With 2 reppers and 3 hards it does seem a bit overkill for most Lvl 3s, but again I'm not sure how comfortable I would feel with a Myrm in a 4. Domis seem pretty cheap as far as BSs go so I'm thinking going with that soon.

Well that would explain a lot lol. It was stable eventually and I don't think that EFT was wrong, but watching it drop below 50% when I was expecting more like the 80% range made me curse quite a bit.

You can do it, but there's usually better stuff to fit. Want a gunboat? Fly a Mega.

Well I've been looking at a lot of cap stable perma-rep Myrm and Domi fittings for missions in hisec. I'll attach 1 or 2 EFT pics of what I was looking at. Nos/nuets with maybe AB/MWD and a web would def give me some PvP viability and I've thought about it. I was thinking that for misions though if my cap is stable and I can perma run reppers, hardeners, etc that nos/nuets wouldnt really be needed all that much. I'm def not sure how that 'perma' repper setup would fare in PvP against nos/nuets itself, without balanced resists, and once cap gets drained...I'm thinking not NEAR as well as for a mission where I can look up the needed resists and let everything run while the drones go to work. Have also considered using projectiles for less cap use, drop a recharger for a AB as it really is slow as shit.

If you really want to gank someone, drop a cloak on a blasterthron, killdozer Domi or similar - you'll be more effective due to being "A decent ship that cloaks" rather than "A cloaking ship". Hell, even the recons aren't the rapemachines they used to be.

Covops warp while cloaked, but are in no way combat ships.

As for parts vs rigs - if you see what you think is a gap in the market...go for it! Worse case you lose your internet-spaceships shirt, best case you make some isk.

Sometimes but I do usually check before I sell a stack of anything and only sell to buy orders if the difference is negligible. I'm no market player but usually I look at the standing sell orders for something to go off of, but I do admit I need to check history more often though.
