Hey.

Basically I've got some friends who subbed and all they rave about doing is making money.

They cannot do incursions yet so we did some lvl4s and those became boring very quickly. Not to mention they made virtually no profit. :\

I was scanning down sites in lowsec, but I found a C3 wormhole instead. I was thinking about finding a C1 (or C2?) wormhole and having us all do them.

There are 2-3 pilots who want to do this, what class wormholes can we expect to do and what ships would we need?

I can fly anything sub cap that shield tanks and they can fly drakes I believe. What is the scope of our reach and what are the best ships to use for something like this? I hear T3s are great but I don't want to spend too much isk on the ship at the moment. Thanks.

Me and a friend lead our newbs into C1s and C2s all the time. I fly a Command Ship, which can solo the sites, and he flies a logi. We just have them fly the best tanked dps ship they can fly. It's good fun and good practice for them, though in a C1 or C2 they are more likely to die to PvP then sleepers. So make sure they stick to the old rule and only fly what they can lose.

I dont have a buddy to fly logi, and I don't wana get a command ship :\

Are there any cheaper options for now? I'm just trying to test the waters atm. :)

a t1 fit BC will run c1-2 sites just fine.

Basically - anything you'd take to run lvl 4s.

Drakes do well.

Cheers,

Drakes or myrm take your pick. you don't need a logi you can fit the high for remote shield rep if you got a poor tank. but anyway its soloable the more the marrier (pods) and if you are nomading never forget your scanning ship and DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD-SCAN more often.

Yep. Just keep in mind that some of the information is wrong, so pay close attention to what you are doing, especially with regard to mass limits, etc.
