Personal difficulty rating for Level 4 missions (as of 7/2008). I started doing L4's solo in June '08. Using Raven and CNR. The difficulty rating is rather a general aspect. For example: Silence the Informant or Stop the Thief are easy missions, if you get range first. If you don't and stay at the beacon (warp-in point) they are pretty hard to do. EASY The Score Duo of Death Rogue Slave Trader 1/2 Massive Attack Recon 3/3 Angel Extravaganza Guristas Extravaganza Unauthorised Military Presence Sansha Spies Guristas Spies Infested Ruins Infiltrated Outposts MED Rogue Slave Trader 2/2 Rogue Drone Harassment Ritualist Raids Enemies Abound 1-4 The Right Hand of Zazzmatazz The Assault Gone Berserk Attack of the Drones Duo of Death HARD Silence the Informant Stop the Thief Intercept the Saboteurs Smuggler Interception The Blockade Enemies Abound 5/5 Vengeance Damsel in Distress Cargo Delivery VERY HARD (avoiding these due to the possibility of proximity aggro at warp-in) Pirate Invasion Worlds Collide Setup nowadays is mostly like: [high] 6-7 Cruise Launchers [mid] XL-Booster, Cap Booster, Boost Amp, 3 hardeners [low] 4 Ballistic Control Systems, 1 Damage Control [rigs] Hardener Rigs on Raven, Cap Safeguards on CNR, Warhead Rigor Catalyst/Cap Control Circuit I ditched the perma setup for a more active tank and damage.
