To do a C1 Wolf Rayet with an AF?

Sleeper frigates like to web and move damn fast, I dont think an Assault Frigate will cope with that.

Some of the sites might be doable in an AF, but certainly not all. I seem to remember at least one site containing a frigate swarm that would probably be too much to handle. I've used a faction frig, an AF, and a T1 cruiser on separate occasions to run a specific C2 site just for the heck of it. Do your research and pick your battles carefully. www.eve-survival.org

Edit: I think I just got what you were going for: Mizz Wolf, if you use a Wolf to run a Wolf-Rayet, the universe WILL punish you...

Theres a video somewhere of someone running sleeper sites in an enyo solo and I have a feeling that was a C2 WR.

Also seen people run sites in WRs with just 4x RR AFs.


EDIT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_kyijCI8ww thats the video I had in mind don't think its a WR tho not checked. I'm guessing he had an off grid booster, exile, etc. tho.

One of my corpmates ran several vanilla C1 sites in an Assault Frig. As I recall his assessment was that it was possible and fun, but slow. Also, he had to be very careful of the neuting sleepers.

EDIT: It's also important to point out that he while he solo'd the sleepers, he had a dedicated salvage ship and was running with no cloak or probes. I don't think AF would be anyone's first choice.

You can easily solo wolf rayets up to c2 in an enyo. Its much easier with two of them, but as long as you orbit any cruisers or battleships with afterburner running and kill frigates asap you will be fine. Just pulse your small armor repper as needed. Some C1 sites have a LOT of frigates and might need to be kited a bit with a single AF.

Thanks for all the replies. :) I was contemplating actually setting up shop (POS, salvager ship, transport, the whole 9 yards). It just seemed like a Wolf star would be ideal for someone solo that doesn't like to fly anything bigger than a dessie.

would an mwd armor kiting wolf with 280's not be good?

Yes it is possible.
Flew with a guy way back who ran C1s in a harpy quite comfortably.
I'm sure you could fit out a wolf to do it in armour.

An Enyo can be built to pump out 449 DPS in a Wold Rayet Class 1 [ all lvl5 skills - no implants]

DPS is not a problem :)

The Enyo IMHO would pwn a class 1 WR

I have personally done it, as have a number of corpmates.

I thought that might be the case (I've done 0.0 sanctums in AFs before) but I'm still new to the WH stuff. I figured WR holes would be ideal for it though given their bonus to small weapons.
