I think the Deimos biggest problem is lack of cov ops cloak

OP asked for a Stratios counter and said that he used an Ishtar before. So the lack of a cov ops cloak shouldn't be a problem

Also your drone choice is pretty terrible.

Also you have an ECM alt and are also terrible as a result, gratz.

It's an alt with 65M sp who happens to have ecm skills and a docked up fitted falcon. Has worked out more than once either I survive or I get the kill.

Ecm when people know how to use it is dangerous.



Nothing wrong with having back-up. Doesn't matter if it's friends or alts. Solo fighting is a rare and beautiful thing, but back-up is realistic and practical.

Well being in Null and seeing as how they are in my space.
I am not looking for a fair fight I want as much advantage as possible.

I normally have 4 accounts that can engage. 2 of my and my friend is on when I am on and he also has 2.
Was thinking maybe some vexers or some gnosis ships. Maybe some stabbers?
Just what ever would be as cheap as possible but also as effective as possible.

See I have the ISK to field what ever but I am cheap as hell and hate spending it.
Would fielding 3 dps and one ecm work out in our favor?
I have taken care of plenty of other pirate or navy cruisers and T2 cruisers.
I just do not have the experience with the SOE ships.

You're seriously asking if your 3 DPS ships and Falcon alt can take on a solo Stratios? Ugh

Do you really need further advice on how to kill a cruiser that is outnumbered 3:1 by combat ships and is also incapable of designating targets for its drones, using guns, or tackling anything?

Worst case scenario; whatever lands initial tackle may have to warp out after jams hit and secondary tackle is applied.

Well I have heard of several stratios ships overcome 2 to 1 odds. And the 4 ships would be vs 2 stratios

Good way to counter a stratios is to simply neut it. My corp jumped a dualboxer using a stratios and a Navy Harb a while back when they were still somewhat new to Eve. 2 pilgrims, a bomber, and an enyo brought them both down no problem. Once the cap is gone so is the ship, drones can just be smart-bombed or primaried down to 0 the DPS

Other great ships include Heavy Interdictors with a scram, web and guns ( yea i know some people dont like guns on their HICS )
Curse does fantastic as well
And legions or Proteus also tend to do the trick although ive heard good things about the loki
