Which is best for running 0.0 Anomalies (Sanctums, Heavens,Forsaken/Forlorn Hubs etc.)

I have a 2 billion isk budget, but i would prefer a cheaper option(Kronos over Vindi ; Vargur over Mach; etc.)
I'm on the crossroads between Minmatar/Gallente BS and Thanatos, but if you have a yet better option just go ahead.

Please keep in mind that anomalies ARE Gurista in null space, so take Jamming and Align time etc into account.

Tengu, Does less dmg on paper but with proper rigs it applies full dmg to cruisers and up out to 70km.
And since its got an awesome tank you can skip anomolies and do plexes instead.

This may not beat out battleship options for pure ISK/Hr, but I would at the very least consider a sentry ishtar. Comes in well under the 2 BN mark even with deadspace shield hardeners. I'm thinking no prop mod, 1 omnilink, 3 DDA's. You should get excellent damage and excellent projection, while being resistant to jams and maintaining a low cost and high agility.

"**CCP is changing policy, and has asked that we discontinue the bonus credit program after November 7th. So until then, enjoy a super-bonus of 1B Blink Credit for each 60-day GTC you buy!"**

Never forget.

every pve ship in this game except the macherial is useless in the games current state except a macherial

so just buy a macherial and laugh while ccp needlessly nerfs everything around it

Shhh, CCP will see you and nerf the machariel lol.

It's the ship I fly most in PVE, everything else (except the Vindicator in Serp/Guristas null space) feels lack luster in comparison.

To the OP, the mach I use to rat in serp and guristas space is more than 2 bil, but only slightly and just because I like shiney stuff. A pure tech2 fit mach will still get 35 to 45 mil per tick. I make more with a Vindicator, but if you don't have sole access to the forsaken hubs, the Mach is a better choice (because of the range of its guns)

I see many people in Serp (and some in guristas) space using a Naga, but i don't care for it. WAY to squishy, can only really be used in forsaken hubs without support, having to pick the right targets (kill the ships that orbit at range 1st) etc etc. After the ease of using the mach and Vindicator (and Rattlesnake, a nice somewhat cheaper alternative), the Naga is lackluster. It IS nice and cheap though.

Kronos and Varg are fine too. Tengu not as good but solid, and Carriers are ok but more trouble than i care for.

Could you link me the fit for the machariel, please.
Vindi fit too, if you have one.

I'm using a naga now, so it would be easier to transfer to a vindi, however if mach is much better than i'll do mach

In my experience with guristas null sec area using vindi in forsaken hubs is by far the best option.

I like Ishtar (at least 2 ddas and 2 omnis for using gardes). I've also really enjoying the Rattlesnake for doing havens, forlorn and forsaken hubs.

What weapons? If blasters, you sit on top of spawn, is that it?

yes blasters are by far the best, usually kill first wave as you approach it and next wave should spawn very close to that spot.

Either you do it with a HAM tengu (dont have any fitting atm) or a Naga. The naga can get up to 40 mil isk/tick (20 min) so it will be around 110-120 mil pr. hour. This will although require you to fit it a bit expensive and not just the normal naga.

cant link the fit, but here is what i can memorize from it:

3x faction stabs
2x LSE
2x Invuln t2
1x 10MN AB t2
1x shield recharger t2
8x Neutron blasters t2 with void ammo

and for rigs put a t2 damage rig on for your blasters (collision or burst)
and then 2x purge rigs.

What you want to do is take Forsaken hubs and the when you land you fly up to the rats while you shop stuff, stop you ship when you get up there and just blap everything as it spawns.. Pretty simple
NOTE: DO NOT USE IT FOR ANYTHING ELSE THAN FORSAKEN HUBS.

Edit: you can also use a vindicator yes, dont know if it's better

but mate... just noticed who is asking lol.. why havent you asked in corp man :-D?
