Alright, so ill get right to the point. Wars-a commin to mah neck of the woods and my CEO suggests I move into the Wormhole with them. I've been a belt miner forever and have no idea how wormholes work, all I know is the rats are no joke.

He quickly told me a hulk might be a bit too expenisve to risk dragging through, so with the new mining updates I suggested a procurer. Tons of tank and a half decent yield, it will let me get my feet wet at least figuring out this WH thing.

Only problem I have, I can't find a single loadout for a procurer anywhere. no one seems to have updated builds after the patch yet.


So does anyone with more experience then myself in WH's or working ship fits have any idea how I can make a beefy procurer?

Yeah I've tested some Procurer fits on 0.0 rats on SiSi. It was able to tank some spawns pretty nicely. I suggest CPU rig, 1 Modulated Strip Miner 2, 2xMLU2, Small T2 Shield Booster, 2 T2 rat-specific hardener, 1 Adaptive Invuln. I believe I had to use a T1 Invuln because of CPU, though you could maybe just use another CPU rig.

This is the approximate fit you're looking for. Sorry I don't have a real loadout, this is from memory.

Fit it with a tank, but you don't need to tank the rats. In fact, you can't tank the rats. Too much DPS. However, Sleeper rats are in the site on warp-in, but do not respawn. So send a combat pilot to clear it for you, then go mine 0.0 ore to your heart's content. Spam d-scan.

Wormholes are cool, m'kay?

I found I could clear any mining or gas site using 2 RR & passively tanked Tengu in C5 & C6. I'd send the first one in to get aggro, then the second which repped the first, and by the time the Sleepers switched targets, enough of them would be destroyed so that neuting both ships wasn't a problem.

In lower class wormholes it is a lot easier.
