Thats some useful reading.

My 2 cents:

Soloing is possible in decently fitted ship in lower class wormholes, battlecruisers (drake is not the only solution), HACS, T3-s something in the lines of that.

Please understand that WH space was meant as one of the many options in EvE for "end game" PvE activity. As a mmo "end game" is in its essence an activity that is massivly more efficient if there are multiple players compared to solo solutions.

There are tons of wh corporations and alliances that are looking for more players. Try The Night Crew, Aperture Harmonics, Lone Star Exploration, K162, Narwahls Ate my Duck or just check the forum recruitment threads. Good corps tend to do more of the "sweet and tasty" sites and sometimes use capital escalations for better isk and soloers/tiny corps tend to do the leftovers, lower classes and garbage sites.

Same goes for pvp activities. There are many pvp focused wh corps/alliances. And yes solo is an option too but its the question of effectivness and reason. Its an mmo, team up, kick butt and chew bubblegum.

Just to add.. since the neuting has been fixed, it is alomst impossible to solo C4 anoms. Used to be able to in a decent fit Tengu. Guess you could possibly run a C4 anom in a carrier :)


Quoted for truth. I'd love to see more carriers running combat sites alone in w-space. If it's not too much to ask, ignore any Sister's Core probes you see on d-scan too.

What are you doing using core probes trying to catch people?


lol I was waiting for someone to say that. Go run a mag site in your carrier and I'll show you what I'm doing with those core probes P


You'll still be much better off using combats for 2 reasons

1: Carrier is FAT and should only take 1 scan at 4 - 8au
2: MAGs are one of the hardest to scan down.

Use D-scan to see where he is, find a rough distance, drop probes off of scan, flash him once with probes and recall instantly, fleet warp fleet to 0 (assuming you've got the right fleet composition)

I've been doing a lot of reading about WSpace now that our corp is active in it, however I cannot find anything regarding soloing Sleepers in stealth bombers. Do sleepers follow the same tracking principles as other battleships (ie BS rats in belts)? I can solo BS rats on belts and in missions just fine if they're alone (no frigates), but will sleepers be a different story?

The site I'm looking at is a C4 anomaly w/ two Sleeper BS.



1) a single stealth bomber would lack the DPS to kill a frigate in most c4 sites, let alone a battleship. C4 sites have lots of RR.

2) Even if the RR didnt prevent you from killing the bs, death by all the BS's escorts would. I cant off the top of my head think of a C4 site that doesnt have at least SOME cruisers and/or frigates, and I live in a C4. Also, since in a C4 even the bs will scram, web, and nos you (all from extreme range i might add), you will quickly be toast.
