I can't find any guides, even though I understand it's not as much of a process anymore is there perhaps something of a procedure?

Most likely means Capital Escalations.

Well either that or pew pewing people's citadels to make them bat phone so you can counter bat phone.

Well.. you warp a capital in a site and get more sleepers.
It's generally considered not worth the effort though. Use rattlesnake fleets instead.

So even if you maintained a fleet of capitals as in your c5 corp you wouldn't bother?

Anyone saying using capitals isn't worth it hasn't done it. 2 dreads can run a site, including drifter, in 15 minutes....seems worth to me.

Running rattles is fine if you don't have the dreads but requires more people and more people equals less money for you. Krab holes exist because it's worth doing....think about it.

yea... one can do it on test mode, sisi, ******* up left and right, in about 45 min to an hour. practiced i assume two nags or moros can clear a c5-c6 site pretty easily...

youtube new drifter boss escalation... there are some videos... as for guides, not much out there no. make one... after testing on sisi for us?

cheers.

AFAIK you actually have to skill the char in similar manner on sisi unless they also sell injectors for 1 isk.

Still you are not doing it for the capital escalation but just to get the drifter down faster.
And 15 minutes , i doubt that.... .

No local in null sec would fix everything!
