OP, don't do the faction fetish thing, it's not needed, it's hilariously overpriced and it's actually not useful in many cases. Some faction/dead space stuff makes sense, but using everything faction reeks of noobieness and loot pinata. If someone else gave you that fit, helped you make it this way or said it was fine stop listening to him and ignore him for the rest of time because he is not helping you at all.

Also; with lasers, specifically pulse lasers, you want T2 because you need that Scorch. If you can't use scorch then don't bother fitting cool ships with amazing mods.

well, I guess if you are adamant on making Legion work for solo whs, it might work, but...
- you will need salvager, drones won't fit it - it will take forever and you won't be able to salvage battleships
- neutering sleepers might make your life a misery - considering large battery and stuff, it will likely work, but... it is really expensive ship for '**** happens'
- your combat range is problematic - I guess idea is to clear frigs with lasers on short range and slowly grind battleships with drones
- drop pvp stuff, in my experience, pvp stuff on pve ship will only increase change that you can actually enter pvp (something in subconsciousness I guess :) ), therefore increasing risk of losing ship :), just run like mad if something starts being fishy
- drop faction guns unless they are really essential for fitting

on positive side:
- it might actually work, keep in mind it will take forever to grind down those sleeper battleships (making your effective income Sad)
- don't believe all what people say about sleepers and drones - run sleeper sites up to c4 with drone ships and with people with drone ships and we had virtually 0 problems with sleepers killing drones - just keep eyes open for them turning on drones and you will be fine

verdict:
- if you are adamant on running solo whs with legion and primary plan this as proof of intention, fun activity or just enjoy being in wh solo with your legion, enjoy yourself - bonus part is annoying those people who claim legion cannot solo wh P
- however, if you are planning to profit from runnings whs with it, just forget it - you will earn far more by soloing l4s with dps fit legion, or by solo exploring in high sec (or low sec (if you don't die horribly)) with legion, you will earn more by well... mining :) unfortunately c1 - c4 whs are not as profitable as it might sound (my theory is that evul evul bstards in dreads farming c6 ones are driving down the prices)
