Looking through the zkill board, I've found, for example 4 tengus killed by solo T1 ships

The first was killed by a Vexor - I'd love to hear about how that happened!
The second was killed by a Tempest
The third was killed by a Tornado
The last was killed by a Stabber Fleet Issue

So it can be done, in theory. The flip side is that aside form these 4 kills, the recent pages of killboard is full of T1 ships that were murdered by solo Tengus.


The Vexor is a beast of a ship and as unpredictable as a strategic cruiser. Never underestimate it.

If I hadn't taken a ransom I'd have a solo T3 kill, Vexor on Loki, from when the Loki let me get close in a brawling Vexor. They did not expect me to have the EHP of a 1600mm plate Vexor and they certainly were not expecting me to have 700 sustained DPS and over 750 overheated, with almost perfect application against their T3.

Most likely the kill you saw involved the Tengu getting double webbed and blapped by Ogre IIs while the Tengu struggles to effectively apply damage.
