Wormholes

Ok, so I've been in a shattered system for about a week now, and it's REALLY quiet, which is odd because it has a HS static. Which begs the question, could one live out of a shattered system? Solo?! ( with scanner alt of course, so not 'technically solo' )

Now I know the limitations with the standard shattered systems ( which I'm in ), I'm aware larger ships can come in, raid, and leave, a pos isn't possible due to the 'no moons' aspect but I figure here's how something like this would go down!

• Get a cloaky scanner alt inside the WH, bookmark everything ( corp bookmarks ).
• ( optional ) Bring a few giant freight containers, maybe a depot for the important stuff ( since it will go into reinforcement mode )

( I realize a few of you are going, "WTF do you need freight containers for" well I like to store junk, so yea, and if they get blown up, no big deal, same goes for the depot )

• Run sites, use the HS exit to drop off loot.
• Once a week, collect loot in an indy, and sell it at the closest trade center.
• Depending on the income, maybe pay RFF ( Red Frog Freight ) to ship all of it to a central station.

Judging by what I've seen in this system the past week, it's insanely quiet here, only seen a few ships in and out and they were mainly BCs with a few ventures here and there day tripping the gas sites.

This system seems to be on a cycle of gas sites every few days, then data/relic sites... http://i.imgur.com/hUsVQtv.jpg

The amount of money I make in null doing data/relic would offset any, if not all, losses I will incur in this system, so feel free. This is EvE after-all, I'll just take pride in the fact that you consider me such a threat that you must pay extra each month ( be it actual cash, or in game time ) just to bring 'alts' to camp me. Judging by your kill-board, I don't have much to worry about aside from any structures, and those are disposable anyhow. I'll be waiting!

On a side note, try providing some actual conversation outside of bantering and empty threats. This thread was posted to spark conversation about the idea of living in a shattered system solo. Losing ships and getting killed in WH's are a part of EvE life and are already understood and therefore unnecessary to bring up in this conversation/thread.

I really didn't think about using my alt as a cloaky hauler, great idea.

As for the fighter pilot, I can't really run a tengu, Proteus is my only option atm, and with the price tag it carries, I'd rather not risk that. This C2 can be solo'd by a well fitted drake I believe, and the cost effectiveness is more adequate as well.

Though now that I think about it, I'd have to have the depot ( in cargo at minimum ) to refit the drake for data/relic I believe.

I'd recommend a buffer (buffer, not passive regen) fit Gila. It gets MUCH more applied DPS than any of Proteus, Drake or Tengu and the tank is so beefy you won't need to worry much about triggers in a c2. Gila is also in a rather sweet spot as far as price is concerned, since the price is considerably lower than a t3 cruiser and even though it is significantly more than the price of a BC, the advantages are significant enough to justify it.

Also, you ALWAYS want to have depots in cargo for reserve probes, cloak, warp core stabilizers, extra damage mods, extra tank mods and whatever else you suspect you might need for some corner case. A buffer Gila could even survive in PvP if you fit an MWD instead of the AB and a Warp Disruptor instead of an invul. on it from a depot.

I'm looking at the drake as more of a 'throw-away' ship, meaning if I get blown up, I really won't care, the cost is so low enough more than likely by the time i'm actually lazy enough to stop watching d-scan, or in some cases watching netflix on one monitor while my alt and main are on the other two, I've already made the ~70m to make up for it.

I REALLY love the Gila, it's stats are really nice, i've used it a few times to quickly clear HS 4/10s, but the average cost is just too high at this point, and knowing that I've never 'lived' in a wormhole, it seems quite futile to spend so much only to more than likely screw up and go boom.

My null-sec exploration nets me about 500m a week ( 2 hrs a day, 2-3 days a week ) which can in-turn fund roughly 4-5 drakes, 7 if the market sucks, fully fit. Though, at this point I'm not sure how much I can make in the WH either. But at minimum, 4 drakes a week SHOULD be enough to fit the amount of time I can play, depending how derpy I am.

I'm looking to run something like this, feel free to rant how crappy the fit is, I won't mind.



Current skills gives me about 384 dps and 2249 volley, got a burner on it to get that transversal up if I have to, as well as outrun someone is possible ( probably not ), as well as mitigate scrams. Got a NOS on there to mitigate the neuts, which are inevitable. Really wanted a T2 painter, so I went for the next best, according to EFT ( not in-game atm so couldn't really verify and i'm sleepy )

I KINDA want to have a depo to refit the drake for pure salvage ( yea I went there ) to clean up the site after it's done. Hell, I might even bring an MTU to do the cleanup while I fly, depending if it's a lazy day or not. For safety and cost-effectiveness I'd keep depo on the cloaky hauler of course :)

Love that idea btw...

this is one of those topics that keeps coming back. shattered should change how to approach it tho. this was my post a long time ago. might have some help.

Orca works well. Was a long blog by a fellow who did it for months. I will look.
