WH Sites - help needed

After many frustrating attempts to do sites in WH space with a Heron, I give up. I need some help, because every time I warp to a
site, Sleepers spawn. Is there any way to stop the Sleepers from spawning, get the loot quick and gtfo before they even come?

no

W-space data/relic sites are designed to have to be run with combat ships then run with hackers. There also much harder in terms of combat than the rest of the sites in the hole.

To be fair I think they were also designed before odyssey with removed enemies spawning for the normal sites.

Not as far as I know. WH sites aren't mean to be done in a Heron, you do them in groups.

Everytime I go into a rattlesnake pit, the rattlesnakes try to bite me!
Everytime I go into the bear cave, the bear tries to eat me!
When you're done with your wormhole/sleeper conundrum
how about giving me a hand with this!

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

Well.... it used to be but I haven't tried it in a while.

There was a time in known space you can hack cans when combat was taking place but then you get some message that you cannot access them while they are still being defended. Now that data and relic sites are no longer combat sites in known space, this does not matter.



I don't know if this changed for wormhole space where the sites are still combat oriented. I used to draw the sleepers off with drone fu and speed tanking, then warp to the cans and hack/analyze them before the sleepers could get back to them.


You can try that.
