Im starting up three toons and selling my main to just run deep nullsec Ninja plexing and low level opportunistic PvP were i can find it.

My idea was to use the ISBoxer to run

either


3 cloaky tengus (gimped dps but 3 times the gimped dps)


2 tengus and 1 Orca
Orca with links and all the missiles i can carry for an almost indefinate stay.
(downside is getting the Orca there and reduced DPS)


2 Tengus and 1 Carrier
(Tengus can refit from Carrier. But would need constant cyno jumps to move across systems)


Is there any other selection of ships i can use.


Last question

Is tripple boxing without ISBoxer just a pain in the neck?

I Multibox 2 Tengu's, Doing Sites in NULL and Lowsec. Running 2 is easy.

Carriers fighters cannot enter sites if there is a acceleration Gate.
Orca will die in a fire trying to move around Nullsec

I have ISBOXER, and 4 Tengu Toons, however I have had soo many Problems attempting to configer ISboxer. I did manage to make it work years ago, but recently It freezes and crashes constantly.


Personally I would multibox the 3 Tengu's, It would be a handfull but could be done.
Also have 1 salvager onto one of the tengu's, and Also a Hacking mod on another. Then you can do all sites


You get ALOT more DPS out of a tengu if you dont fit the covert sub... Try frag warping instead. It is still very safe if you fly smartly.

Interdiction is a must.

This is a great idea although moving three tengus this way could take some time but would give me so much more dps

triple boxing is easy if you're doing sites or the like where you will only need to be doing one thing at a time

triple boxing if someone hostile is in system, well that gets tricky as balls
