Gallente frigates and destroyers for Level 1 missions

As mentioned in my New Beginning post, I set myself a goal of fitting and flying mission ships with fits that are sensible and accessible to a new player, though they will have to train ship fitting skills appropriately.  As things change in EVE I'll try to remember to update or repost the fits.  The rules I set for myself are as follows.


  • Level 1 missions: frigates and destroyers with T1/meta modules and no rigs.
  • Level 2 missions: cruisers with T1/meta modules and no rigs.
  • Level 3 missions: battlecruisers with T2 modules and T1 rigs.
  • Level 4 missions: battleships with T2 modules and T1 rigs.



So with the completely arbitrary rules in place, lets start with the Gallente.  The Gallente have 3 frigates, the Atron, Incursus and Tristan as well as 2 destroyers, the Catalyst and Algos which are suitable for running Level 1 missions.  The other frigates are specialized ships for either exploration, EWAR or logistics.  We also have a choice of railguns or blasters, I tried out both for the frigates but only fit railguns to the destroyers.  I suggest a new player just go with the railgun fits as railguns in my opinion become more useful for mission running in later missions.


Below are the fits I flew and some comments on how well they performed.  You should be able to copy them and import them into EVE using the new import function.


If you can't make these fits work either substitute a meta module with lower requirements, use a cpu or powergrid implant or rig (for fits without rigs), or train a fitting skill.

If you really are a new player flying Gallente I suggest you pick armor tanking and either guns or drones to train and fly appropriate ships as listed.

When I list how many missions I ran with a fit it means unique missions, so if I ran Cargo Delivery 10 times it counts as 1 mission since the goal here is to see if there are any missions a fit doesn't work for.  I also don't do blitz's, I kill everything just to be sure the fit works.

Now on to the destroyers.

This Catalyst fit with railguns was overkill for level 1 missions, so I only ran 4 unique missions.  You can just sit still and annihilate everything out to 24 km, its cap stable with everything running except the repper which you pulse as needed.
