4 RR Tengu able to do C5 sites?

So elsewhere I posted a thread asking about 4 RR Domis to do a C5 wormhole. Because its going to take a few months of training to get additional characters we're thinking about just buying some tengu characters.

So, 4 remote rep Tengus in a C5?

This would be the fit. I am deliberately avoiding non-tech II mods to keep prices down but have included some:

[Tengu, WH Spider]
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
Ballistic Control System II
True Sansha Capacitor Power Relay
Quantum Co-Processor

Explosive Deflection Amplifier II
EM Ward Amplifier II
EM Ward Amplifier II
Large Shield Extender II
Large Shield Extender II

Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Heavy Missile Launcher II, Scourge Fury Heavy Missile
Large Shield Transporter II

Medium Capacitor Control Circuit II
Medium Core Defense Field Extender I
Medium Anti-Kinetic Screen Reinforcer I

Tengu Defensive - Adaptive Shielding
Tengu Electronics - Dissolution Sequencer
Tengu Engineering - Capacitor Regeneration Matrix
Tengu Offensive - Accelerated Ejection Bay
Tengu Propulsion - Gravitational Capacitor

The fit has, on average 80% resists. It does 500dps. 3 Tengus can project 1400hp/s onto the fourth Tengu. This is all level 5 skills of course.

On the Domi fit thread before it seemed accepted that you need 2000hp/s of rep power. This is obviously smaller but they have a much better resist profile and a smaller sig (although is sig much of a factor with so much webbing?)

Some good advice would be appreciated because we won't buy the characters if this won't work. We'll just train up some domi characters and wait a few months)

yes but why?
a c4-c4 would be a much better option for a group of pilots that can only fly tengus, you get much more isk/hr

Domis are better but still C4 > C5 for domis

Why not just plex and buy some capital ship pilots? It takes less then an hour of google searching to pretty much learn everything about wormholes and avoiding ganks.


When looking at things form a PURELY PvE standpoint, you have to realize that DPS=Isk/HR

Running C5s in tengus is a waste of time.
yeah you can prob do it with that fit, though your cap stability is too low tbh.

I keep going on about C5s because they are the easiest WH to find (in nullsec) for daytripping and they are the most deserted type in the game.

We do a lot of probing and we both agree that C5s are by far the easiest to find. C4s on teh other hand we hardly ever come across, usually as another WH within a WH.

We don't want to live in a WH because we are part of a null alliance and don't want to give that up. We don't have the characters to split out the pvp from the pve.

As such, we want to be able to log on, quickly find a C5 and just start jewing. Missions suck.

Hmm if 2000 dps is low for a C5 WH, what amount of dps would get it done with reasonable quickness? Plank you seemed happy with 3000 in that other thread. How about 2500?

You can do them with 4 tengu's but if 1 dc's then your well in a bit of a pickle.

Rarely share ship-fittings on the forums, but hey, lets have some more siting tengus in our wormholes :)

If you are looking at it from a PvE standpoint, I am assuming you want as much efficiency for as little cost. The fit you have is fine, but it wont shoot further than 70km (with perfect missile skills), and it will cause some travelig to get in range, or knowing where next wave spawns, which still can be quite far appart in C5-sites. Which is why I like to use this fit;

Shoots out to 105 with scourge fury (Anyone that tells you to swap to t1 ammo, tell them to stuff it) It is (almost) cap stable with 3 BS neuting you (you wont find more in all but 1 C5 site) and you are able to tank any incomming dps, even from the hardest site, The Information Pen.

Now, it requires attention to fly, and if someone disconnects or drifts off, the others better be ready to heat their modules if you just had a new wave.

Have had lots of people, even from my own alliance, telling me they need passive modules or swapping to t1 ammo for range instead of fitting range rigs, but - if what you want is efficiency, then I'd go with that fit. It works and it beats all the tengus without range rigs or target painters by severel mintues on sites.

Faye knows the real deal. We have flown 4 RR Tengus together in the past and it works a treat. 4 of those will work perfectly with alert pilots, better yet with boosts.

Hey! who stole my cap?

C5's are easy with 4 tengus, (active or passive)
Heck you don't even have to think, just tag and shoot.
And never, never run a scout just stay there all bundled up 8 k from one another.

Take your T3 PVP group in and three guardians .
You can do them a lot faster that way and you don't have to scout because you want an attack. lol



shhhhhhhhhhhh
Something may be waiting for you.

No reason not to use a S95a large on a RR tengu really - unless your skills really suck they are possible to get cap stable with a fairly decent tengu fit.

4 tengus is ok for doing C5 sites unescalated not amazingly quick but it won't be too slow either the main issue would be if one of them DC'd at the wrong time as someone mentioned above.

Hey thanks for that fit. Some questions though:

Even with all levels Vs on EFT I need a 6% CPU implant. Is that intended?

You say it needs pilots to be paying attention, is that simply for who you should be repping or does the fit also require you to turn on/off invuls when not primaried? I assume its just you need a quick reaction time for the repper?

Cheers

Hmm, using pyfa and it puts it @ 99,59% CPU. There are workarounds, one is the dissulution subsystem swapped for a cpu subsystem, but it will lower your locking range to 85km. (If you bring the new range boosts, that wont be a problem). Another way is just fitting more faction BCU's.

With paying attention I mean, turn off or run your shield transporter in bursts if you are being primairerd by neuts. The fit doesnt have a lot of EHP, so you need to swap to the reps to the new dps primary pretty soon after the sleepers do. Make sure someone doesnt drift out of rep range etc. You can keep hardeners running without worrying.

T1 scourge actually do more damage to sleeper cruisers than fury. Just try and see. It used to be otherway around before heavy missile changes.

Good, alert pilots can manage more than adequately with the fit that Faye posted. Your fit is cool for multi-boxers or those who are overly cautious. I prefer a bit more missile range and a painter. Cool

Keepers + Wardens + 4 x target paints + fury = win
I even think (not 100% sure, put it at 95%) that with perfect missiles skills and 4 x paints sentinels take more damage from fury too.

In terms of tank not holding. Well, ok. Go with your tank heavy fit with no paints and CCC's and do the siters slower, its cool mate. More time for people to scan you down and get some nice kills.

There are several ways to do sites in a C5. But if we are talking ISK investment vs risk, you dont get it much sweeter than the fit I linked. But do stick to C5's. And do know thy spawns of the information pen and you are fine (Hint: Sleepless Keeper neut range = 70km, lower circle of cans = 90km away from spawn = 20km to kill at least 2 in, and neuting wont be a problem). Again, to all the guys that wanna super tank their tengus and make them super cap stable, that is fine. But if you want to do the sites faster and more efficient, take my fit and tell all these "I WANT MANY CAPACITORS AND MANY EHP" to stick their fits up where the sun doesnt shine.

I dont have much experience with C4 sites, so what I am gonna say is purely based on theory and math.

2 tengus with boosts (T3 offgrid with all 3 T2 Siege Links + Siege Mindlink implan) can tank ~1400 omni dps, which should make them able to tank most C3 sites. (Exception being the harder Data and harder Relic site, which include a 4 BS spawn [~2.000 Tank required]). 3 Tengu's would be optimal though, making you able to run all sites with ease.
