I am currently 3-3-3-3 (hating the 1mill exp grind for first level 4 box) currently am up to 580k experience
Been using the Kimogila but dont know if I should buy a Ixiyen
Was wondering what would be best to use the Kimogila or the Ixiyen?
and what should I get as my first level 4 box? I was thinking ships or equipment personally

Kimogila has 3 gun slots, the Ixy only two. The Ixy is very easy to get hit in as well.

yeah stick with the kimo.
im a 4444 freelance and I got it in about 4 hours without double xp. The secret, do your mish that you have to complete for the lvl 4 box then after its done dont do the little mish they try and give out. Instead, go to Kashyyyk, Neutral teritories, and take out the mercenay frigates that circle the station. the big one has only one gun on bottom and the 2 smaller frigates wont even attack. you get a minimum of 5k xp per kill and always loot an item, usually good ones at that.
its a little secret I found by mistake and im glad I did. Helps when trying to get master too

I hope I'm reading this wrong, but you know the Master Box requires no xp right? Only the missions your trainer gives you count towards getting Master.

Personally I prefered the Ixy when I went through Privateer, it's much more manuaverable than the kimo.
As far as getting hit more? ... maybee in pvp, pve the added manuaverability more than makes up for any size difference, I never had trhe fat Ixy though, I had a long slim one, can't recall which style it was.

If you thinking of the NPC's, yeah, they are all easy to hit. Now for a player, we don't all move in a straight line and turn really slowly.
There is a major difference there. Oh, i find kimo's really easy to hit too. Nice big cigar flying around begging me to shoot it down. To me, your argument is mute. but that is just me.
I liked the Ixy, even liked the Rhyk even more. But i am a tank type pilot. More guns and more shields please.
