Can a Stratios do 5/10s in Serpentis space? If so, can someone share a decent fit?

What are other decent alternatives?

Hello, could you suggest a Stratios fit first - even if it's terribad - so that we might offer assistance rather than merely spoon feed you. Thanks!

You might want to drop a turret for a cloak.

+1 for the cloak idea, especially in low sec


I'd suggest dropping the EANMs and going with kinetic and thermal specific hardeners. Luckily, Serpentis has a pretty easy damage profile to tank, especially with armour.

What kind of DPS do you get with that fit?

oh, lol.. I can't believe I forgot the cloak.

It's about 550-ish dps if I recall correctly. I'm thinking of using a gecko and hammers instead, that should give it a bit more oomph..

Pricy for the Geckos, but it could help if you're using heavies a lot. Have you thought about using sentries as a substitute, as they seem to do pretty well enough on a Strat from what I hear, even considering only using 4 instead of 5?

NVM. Can't read posts for crap for some reason today.

i have done serpentis 7/10 on it... the point is to orbit out of hurt range and kill the weber's first, with sentries or lights depending on the situation, then go to town. There is only one rule KEEP MOVING FAST and use heavies

put blasters on it and fly 1geco 2 hammerheads and a hobbgoblin.

Should get upwards of 700 dps maby 8 if you go with faction dda's actually mine gets 780+ with ok skills and 2 t2 dda's .

Admittedly I haven't tried a ded site with this yet but it's savage for PvP.

Also webs work well with this ship.

thing to remember about this ship is its basically a vexor in fancy frock

Yeaahhh, go with Ralph's idea. It can be a bit of a PVP monster, and it should translate fairly well to PVE.

I've been using a similar buffer fit for 5/10s in Sansha space (with extender rigs rather than purgers), and I'd go with this one instead of the active armor version. The reason is simple: more dps and a buffer, which is essential to survive the last room in the 5/10 DED sites (3 web towers make you basically a sitting duck, and the incoming dps is very high if you can't migrate any of it).

Although I'd prefer using guns in the high slots, this should work rather well.
