Hey, I'm living in a C3 wormhole right now in a very small corp and need something to run sites solo with. Im pretty low skilled, but I can fly Gallente and Caldari decently. I would prefer to use shields as my tank. I have decentish drone skills as well.

Ive tried a Domi and Drake so far, but they dont tank enough solo for C3. Is a Rattlesnake my best choice? If so, whats like a good guideline for skills before jumping into one?

This Drake can tank C3s fine though you may have to warp in and out because of neuts, the dps is also pretty pathetic so it'll take you ages but it works. You can drop one power relay for an additional ballistic control for easier sites.

Tengu is a much better option for these sites if you want something missile based. I wouldn't recommend something drone based because the drone aggo means you'll be pulling drones in and out alot making your dps alot lower than it actually is.

Why Domi and not Raven? Thought Raven was the next step after Drake.

Get on Comms, or die typing.
