I want to go do some combat exploration in Low and Null. I will have my Tengu pilot and an alt in a Covops to handle the scanning and the Data/Relic sites if I get bored. I'll be bringing a Moble Depo and extra fittings so I can fit for the correct tank depending on which side of the Galaxy I end up in.

I'm planning on jumping through some wormholes to get to Low/Null from HighSec. But I have no idea where to start for the Tengu fit. Any help please?

Also, would you EFT seers recommend another ship besides a Tengu for this venture? Or would a Tengu get the job done well enough? Thank you!

pound for pound the tengu is almost always the best choice.

You will have major issues with cargospace.

Never forget.

The Tengu fit depends on which faction space you are operating in as well as security (low/null). What you need on the Tengu will vary between the sites you do, Guristas/Serpentis/Angels sites you will be able to fit much more gank and less tank, however you'll need lots of tank for Blood Raiders/Sanshas sites. Also some sites have web towers that are far away meaning you might need HMLs for some sites while others will be much better with HAMs, you will also need EM ammo for Blood Raiders/Sanshas sites as it will do more damage compared to Kinetic despite the bonus. Overall if you're planning on operating in all different types of space you will be hard pressed to fit everything you need in your cargo especially if you're also planning on carrying cloaky/nullified subsystems for safe travel.

Just get to a guristas (kin/therm damage and vuln to kin) area and find a npc station to store stuff in. esp if it has missiles for sale.
Take a faction AB, a pith a kin hardener, 4 BCU (Cn or T2 depending on what bling u want to risk)
use a deadspace shield booster (people vary between small and medium on this) and SB amp (T2 or better)
I use HM as HAMs have range issues and the precisions are great for alphaing frigs or burning down the elite frigs.
If you want to run the maze solo then make sure you have a very expensive tank, drugs and crystal set. I just bring friends.
my last mid slot is a rep fleet target painter as a 2nd hardener doesn't fit for me.
i really don't use any implants as i PVP too often to be worth it.

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85
