    Halix do 33-33-33 stab-cut-acid. If you really cant wait one more month, then i recommend 2C plates instead of a new fullset ofarmor.

    if you really need to move up to things that hard for you then look at Lupus armor perhaps, should be easy to find in shop/booth or auction.

    nobody seems to be asking you why you are moving up? :)
    the biggest pitfall in this game is to move up too fast, and personally i would try a bigger gun before using better armor to save me.

    I have a Grunt M in my storage. (comparable to the pixie). It protects less than Lupus. But is cheaper and unlimited.
    It is important that you take lvl Paramedic.

    Don't forget about Musca armor available from the TT. If you need a little extra protection it's a good way to go, and best of all it's economical and you can TT it if you don't need it, at no loss.

    The reason im moving up and gearing up is im reaching a level unless I use my TT weapon which I do from time to time when afk killing halix that the guns I am using now are easing pec on every kill because of overkill. And the higher level halix hit for 30-40 a hit with no armor :)

    It might be worthwhile considering the use of really cheap armour as a plate hanger. Something like Musca (I suppose on Caly it would be Coloniser or Settler) with medium-sized plates on it might suit.

    Also, consider doing a bit of hunting on lower-level mobs (perhaps nusul, which take a lot of killing but do very little damage) to get low level armour for use.

    Nusul is a pure impact mob, so that's worth considering when thinking about armour. It is extremely unaggressive and doesn't hit all that often or for much damage.

    As far as weapons are concerned, the TT guns will do the job but you might do better stepping up a little. I don't know what your skills are, but I use a LAW-202.

    Im easily kill nusul stalker in adj pixie unplated. But I have more dps than CAP+101.

    For small one Canis,corvus or musca seem to be enough.

    You need more dps before upgrading your amor. With Adj Pixie you will wear it everyday !

    Its much more effective if you slow down on the hunting at such a low level and spend at least two hours a day sweating. Yes I know its boring as hell but its the defensive skills you gain that new player over look wanting to get into the mix right away. The evade skills will help you more then any armor could at any point in your EU career. When I was a young miner back on Calshitzo. I used to drag a baby atrax with me as I mined so I could gain more defensive skills. I don't need armor for anything I can effectively hunt within my budget now. You could also team more on your hunts that way you are not the only person getting chewed upon.
