Wormholes

Hello fellow capsuleers, I just bought a toon that can only fly a laser legion atm and was wondering if it was possible to use it to solo c3's. If so, can you please give me a fit and some helpful advice on how to do this with minimum risk from getting ganked.

Best fit for not getting ganked is 3 to 4 friends with you, and a scout on each hole, and at each pos, and to have monitored the hole for at least 2 weeks.

Yes

Pulse legion can solo all anom. sites easy. I did about 6 sites this morning for about 340m isk. About 2 hours start to finish

I know, I know. I would never waste my time to train for a legion for any reason, the skills were there already when I bought the character. Hence the reason I bought the character is because all the core, support, navigation and gunnery skills are already trained and is very easy to get into multiple categories, which would take another 3 or 4 months, but for now I was just wondering if I can use this legion to run c3 sites while other skills are training.

Got a huge list of references for legion/c3 information

what kind of range do you get using conflag? Or is using faction ammo any better?

The corn flake stats are 730dps@11km+5km, but most of the time you will be using Scorch which puts out 521dps@33km+5km. I tended to use faction ammo only when I needed extra tracking for shooting close orbiting frigates. Otherwise t2 ammo tends to work better. Navy Multi gives 654dps at the same range as corn flakes but with better tracking.

The poor range of guns of all kinds is why Tengu is so popular over other t3's. That damage application at any range against any sort of target is what makes missile ships so silly in PvE.

Flying with 2x MARs is much safer and less bling than 1x blue MAR. People will disagree, but meh, a pvp corporation can make some good isk on some of the better modules dropping, so whatever.

CCP recently fixed sleeper remote repair so it has become much harder to solo without a web. Previous to that I was not using web, just manual piloting and faction multifreq on frigates.

Ideally you want no more and no less than 600-650tank.
Cap stable with 2x MAR, pulse lasers, 2-3x t2 heat sinks, web, afterburner - that's a pretty standard fit. Of course plug that resistance hole. Play around in EFT and do some testing - that is the only ways to understand how your ship operates. A lot depends on your character skills.

Not getting ganked is all up to you. I've never lost a pve combat ship in WHs. Been close - i've warped out of interdiction bubbles, killed tackling interceptor, logged off in the static, all that jazz.

I did a write-up on this some time back that is still mostly valid: http://txgsync.wordpress.com/2014/01/02/solo-c3-strategic-cruisers/

Due to the risk posed these days by frigate holes and frequent harassing interceptors, I'd carry a mobile depot with tracking computers, webs, target painters, warp stabs, and an interdiction nullifier subsystem. The interceptor won't do enough damage to your mobile depot to take it out before you can refit, and it's a better GTFO option if you're "truly solo" before the rest of his fleet drops on you. You will typically want to drop the depot & MTU right at the start of the site or else you'll have zero chance of refitting before a fleet drops on you.

Those fits in my post are, of course, cheap starter fits. About 25 minute site completion times on average warp-to-warp for me with my skills. Salvaging adds a bit of time on the back-end. You can radically bring down the site completion times by opting for a shinier fit with more DPS, but that's left as an exercise to the reader. The fits in my post are pretty much idiot-proof C3 site-running fits if skills are all to 4 or better and all mods can be equipped as listed, but I definitely need to do a follow-up post about use of mobile depots and refits to give you a better chance of escape when your friendly neighborhood ammunition delivery service shows up.
