Sazuka Kirr

I'm currently running missions for Intaki Bank, which is corporation within 'The Syndicate' faction. Their agents are scattered throughout 'Syndicate Region'. They are a Pirate Faction, allied with the Serpentis and Angel Cartel. My aim is to grind up my standings with Angel Cartel faction by completing storyline missions for The Syndicate.

I've encountered quite a few missions that have no reports here on EVE-Survival, so I try to create new pages for them where I can. I don't count how many asteroids there are, whether structures drop loot or spend time experimenting to figure out triggers and ways to blitz the mission, so you probably won't find that information listed. They should, however, have enough information for you to judge whether you can, given your ships and skills, run the mission or not.

The Tengu

As far as I'm concerned, there is no ship better than the Tengu for missioning in low- or null-sec. Though the DPS it can put out compared to some of the other T3's is low, it's tank is very strong and it's ability to consistently deal damage over a long range (by the virtue of it's missiles) is unmatched. I have two Tengu capable characters, which sometimes fly solo, other times fly in tandem. The solo fit is shown on the left, while the tandem fit is shown on the right.

I try to run missions in the same system as the agent. Should I need to take a trip to a neighbouring system, I leave favour the fit Solo fit, but drop the AB for an MWD and drop a HML for an Improved Cloak, allowing me to evade gate camps with the MWD + Cloak trick. I'll also fit the Interdiction Nullifier subsystem to allow me to ignore any bubbles.

If I undock to find the station bubbled, I'll click Ctrl + Space to bring my ship to a standstill, so I don't fly out of docking range. Then, once my session timer has expired, I'll dock up. Of course, if I have the Interdiction Nullifier fit, I'll just warp to an off-grid instaundock bookmark and continue to mission as usual, making sure I warp to an on-grid bookmark before docking up at the station, so I can avoid the bubble.

The solo fit is unprobable with Tengu Electronic Systems IV, but the tandem fit requires it trained to Level V. Since one of my characters only has it to Level IV, the sensor strength on the fit is only 147, meaning the ship isn't actually unprobable. I considered using Projected ECCM instead of local ECCM (120% vs 96%), but this would result in moments where my ships are unprobable, such as while I warp to the site or as I activate an acceleration gate.

To compensate for this, I purchased a Low-Grade Talon Epsilon for 20m to raise my ship's sensor strength to 151 (note that EFT adds LG Talon bonuses incorrectly, so overestimates the sensor strength) and purchased a bundle of Synth X-Instinct for 750k per unit to lower my signature radius to 161. These two changes made my ship unprobable. As I have Biology V trained up, the Synth X-Instinct lasts 60 minutes, so the 750k per hour cost of using the boosters is paid for by the 30m per hour made from running missions.
