Hi chaps,

Firstly I had a look around and couldnt seem to find an answer.

Just wanted to know really what skills are good enough for a Drake in wormholes? Would a battlecruiser lvl3and missileskills lvl4 be enough?

I can also use T2 medium pulses and fly a Legion. Would that be a better choice? My Controlled Bursts and weapon upgrades need some work however. Also, if anyone would like to share some fits that would be great. Will carry on playing with EFT however.

Thanks for your time,

Lee McGee.

Depends on the class of wh you intended to fly in. P
But I recomend lvl 4 bc and lv 4 missile skills and shield skills and shield rig skills.

Drake fit can be one of 2 ways, good resists & high dmg or High recharge high tank and medium dmg.

classic drake fit is high slot all t2 HML launchers or HAM if flying in c1s and have very good skills.
mid slots invul , active em resist, large extenders and possibly target painter or shield recharger.
low slots go with BCS and shield power relays 50-50 or go with a DC2 unit and BCS.

drones hobgoblins with good skills will add 97 dps.

Legion I haven't flown so I can't say much about it.

Drakes... that ship may be good when you run lvl3s but appart from that forget about it.

T3 ships are the way to go in wh. Depending on the class of the wh the ideal setup will change so it's quite hard to tell you a good fit as we have no idea what your goal is.

If you want to fly decently a Legion focus on getting your subsystems to lvl V, improve your navigation skills and armor skills. You also have poor gunnery supports skills... in a couple of months you can become a good legion pilot.

drake works in a c1 wh, C2 it will struggle with range.
there a t3 or Bs will be prefered.
Imo flying t3 in a c1 isn't worth the risk if you haven't got the system secured.

yeah drakes are okay in C1, i haven't considered C1 in my previous reply because imo living in a C1 isn't profitable enough to be worth it.
