Amarrian ships are more restricted when running [[Missions|missions]] than the other races. Within Amarr space, against the Blood Raiders and Sansha's Nation factions, Amarrian ships are probably the most effective of all (as is typical with the other empires). However, lasers only do Thermal and Electromagnetic damage, so other factions are more difficult to combat than would be the case for pilots from the other empires fighting in Amarrian space. This is a concern for some Eve University pilots who want to try missioning close to home, as the University is based in Minmatari space where Angels are the common faction but there are effective solutions, such as the Arbitrator (which relies on drones and could carry another empire's drones with proper training) or using alternative turret weapons systems (such as a Punisher with projectile turrets). A classic progression of Amarr mission ships would be to train the Punisher and Coercer for level 1 missions, move to the Omen or Arbitrator for level 2 missions, then Harbinger for level 3 missions, and finally the Apocalypse for level 4 missions.

For salvaging, ~~the~~ Coercer ~~can fill the role until the~~ Noctis ~~can be purchased~~.

For salvaging, a [[Coercer]] makes a very good, cheap salvager and is only beaten in efficiency by a [[Noctis]].

In Wormholes, the Harbinger can run C1 and C2 combat sites, although it may have trouble with either range or tracking due to the variety of sleeper hulls that can orbit either close or far. Like the other turret-based BCs, the Harbinger does much better in fleets than solo for wormholes. C3 wormholes can also be done in a Harbinger with a fleet of sufficient size.

~~The Harbinger is~~ the ~~first T1~~ ship ~~that can run Incursion Vanguard sites effectively~~, ~~and~~ the ~~Abaddon can be used by more experienced players. The best armour~~ incursion fleets ~~in highsec currently run with T2~~ and T3 Amarr ~~ships~~.

Amarr ships are also highly popular with armour [[Incursions|incursion]] fleets, especially the [[Paladin]] and [[Legion]]. While not technically an Amarrian ship, the [[Nightmare]] is one of the most sought after ships for shield incursion fleets and uses energy turrets, so is a natural progression for an Amarr pilot.
