In the WH we used to do a trick on sleepers wondering if anyone had tried it in Incursions. Sleepers like Incursions like to target drones. So we would pack a ton of Warrior 1s (they are faster hence harder to hit) and cut them loose at the beginning of the engagement. Meaning the sleepers would waste aggro on drones that only cost a few thousand isk. Has anyone tried this For Sanshas in Incursions? Really cheap tank in WH.....

90% of of the time my posts are about something I actually find interesting and want to learn more about. Do not be alarmed.

Sanshas occasionally target drones.

not frequently enough to make a notable difference.

Most incursion fleets would actually prefer their drones not take damage.

Because when you're rolling you want to keep rolling without stopping to restock as often


Also the logi's are usually on the ball thta no matter how much room aggro you have the fleet should be fine.

against sanshas drones generally insta-pop.

granted my drone skills suck, but sansha dps is so much higher than sleepers that should your drones take agro you generally don't realize until they're all gone.

^This

Incurison sansha are far tougher and do more dps than sleepers. More so for the frig rats that kill drones.
