I am trying to read up on this. It seems the 1st couple stages are easy and you can solo, but the last part is difficult. I have been told you can bring a carrier in to kill it. I could bring two in, anyone done this? I am curious about the fit and strategy.

Cheers

I don't think you need a 'strategy' if you drop a carrier on the last stage ... except trying not to get pvped maybe.

Use Czeris' Plex Running service and keep running anomalies in peace! I do all the work, and you collect half the rewards. Just make sure to actually warp to the escalation's warp gate; you can't bookmark an escalation from the Journal.

Service currently available in all Clusterfuck space.

No, not in this case, single carrier risks being popped in this one if your skills are bad and/or you just drop it in blindly. Station deals up to 6000 EM dps and NPCs probably add another 2-3 thousand
Simple rules
0. Don't leave EM hole in resists(obviously)
1. Don't go with your carrier into position your journal points to, it's too close to station; warp in something cloaked and create your BM at more than 50 km from station.
If you're too close station will be webbing you and it's bad; mostly because if you keep aligned at full speed station dps will drop to 2000 or so, even on carrier
2. Don't let neuting towers live too long after spawn or they'll ruin your cap and tank

Or you can just drop any supercap and be done with it pretty quickly.

Dude it is not that hard... Drop in a carrier if you have a buddy drop his to and kill it... I have done it with one carrier but it had 4 drone control units because one max skilled thanny couldent do enough dps to kill the station. Two makes quick work of it then warp out. I think there are a few disrupting frigs but they have never been an issue.. It isnt half as hard as they make it out to be... never hurts to have an alt burn in to grab loot either

2 remote repping carriers work. I have a buddy that does it with a dread and a repping carrier, insta pops station pretty much.

for the last stage I use a deadspace fit active tank Tengu with double em hardeners and a dps ship with a cloak. Cloak dps ship when new spawn arrives, decloak, kill only dire frigs and neut batteries, kill station, loot and go home. I've done dozens of DGFSPs (gotten from forsaken hubs) this way. Pith-A loot is tasty
