So i have run into trouble trying to fit out my legion, while i have found a fit i like for my pve purposes there is a huge problem when it comes to actually traveling, the lack of cargo hold.

Now as i'm pew pewing with lazors the offensive mod is a must cause if you just try to leave the covert one on you do next to nothing in dps. however if you want to be even remotely safe you have to have a cloak on it, this means with the travel fit you have maybe 10 m3 space left over to put your booty which is stupid.

So what should i do, leave the t2 cloak at home and pray no one tries to find me while i'm in system or do less dps that my venture can in which case i might as well of bought a stratios and saved my self a lot of hassle.

I would fly something other than a Legion. From what I understand its a very niche ship.

You might just feel a sense of "why didn't I think of that" right now but:

Cargo Expander.

Bring 1 or 2, fit if you need to after you've competed the site and need to move the loot. I ran into the same problem with my tengu, i just used a more expensive Depot, let it in space and when done went back to it, refit cloaks, subs and cargo expanders plus inertia stabs and left lol.

Can't help felling that this kind of sucks all the fun out of exploration and running escalations, when you go out there and you don't actually have enough room to bring the stuff back. I thought i had found a solution by putting both cloaks on the travel fit, however this is not allowed....ofc. Seriously tho, why is the cloak 100m3????

As for people that would actually have to use ammo O.o HOW!

Well, one solution I have heard is to use cov-cyno T3 for locating the sites and then droping sins for completing them. Then everyone jumps back home together.

I don't use a cloak on my combat fit. Space is still tight. Cargo expanders do indeed help.
