Carriers get used a lot in wspace.... Ratting in a carrier in wspace doesn't work well as sleepers will shoot your drones/fighters, and sleepers are bloody hard to hit with fighters, heavy drones, and sentries. /snip.


Not entirely true.

Ogre II's are very effective at wasting Sleeper frigs in up to C3's once the frigs are orbiting you. I and a mate in an ex corp used to run a pair of lowly rr Domi's in C3's with just Ogres as dps, and they were extremely good at it with one ODL fitted.. We added drone nav comps to speed em up a bit:)

The same mate used a Thanatos in null to bling Sanctums, and I know for a fact he made a very large amount of isk from doing that in a short space of time.

Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.

He is not in a starter corp. Read the thread.

Carriers are usually used either for repping your fleet (look up Triage Module) or hauling rigged ships around/relocating.
Or lvl5 missions of course, if you're into PVE.

Read it - still confused, anyways to answer questions:

1) What should I include in a training plan to really fly a Thanatos?
- Jump drive calibration, you wouldnt believe how nicely that skill is great in terms of convinience
- fighters 4 atleast
- capitel mods training: shield and armor RR, armor tanking
- perfect cap skills


2) What are the typical end-goals for a Thanatos?
- gal carrier 5, fighters 5, bombers 5, perfect armor tanking -> NYX
- training Nyx sitter along the way, it takes around 1B isk and 4 mths to train :)
