Hello fellow capsuleers

Question

Will a T1 cruiser (Gallante or Amarr) be able to do sleeper sites in c1-c3? With meta 4 - 5 fit.
Do i need to invest in a Stratios?
Im trying to avoid BC or bigger ships.

Thanks

C1 --> Yes
C2 --> maybe, but not effective
C3 --> No

Stratios--> No, not neccessarily

Go for T3 Cruisers, like all WH citizens do..Big smile

You can run c1 through c3's in a battlecruiser or a T2 Cruiser if you want to stay on the low cost of ship end.

edit (I reread your question). Your trying to keep your character in a cruiser or lower ship. Respectable.

You can do C1 through C3's in an assault frigate if you have good skills (this takes time though). A group of AF's will mow them over though.

You can do sites in a T1 Cruiser if you have logistics backup. I would definitely invest in T2 weapons and a T2 tank though. You are looking for at minimum, 200 to 250 DPS to break their tank. This is not including any remote repping they may do.

C1 Space(Totally Unaffected)
No RR



C2 Space(Totally Unaffected)
No RR


C3 Spacesmall nerfs to solar cell and Oruze, the 2 rarest kinds of sites, you can no longer rely on unbonused light drones to slowly eat away at frigates in the solar cell, and the site time for the oruze is getting a SLIGHT increase, but with only 130dps repping power even solo ships will be able to melt the low HP low resistance cruisers
Fortification
- 1 RR Cruiser in final wave, low hp and resistances, shouldn't even effect solo ships

Outpost
No RR

Solar Cell
- 2 RR frigates 2nd wave, low hp and resistances, smartbombs and unbonused drones won't be effected, may be difficult for ships that don't have good dps vs frigs to kill them
- 1 RR battleship final wave, low hp and resistances, easily killed first, shouldn't effect solo ships


Oruze
- 1 RR cruiser in first wave, low hp and resistances, easily killed first, shouldn't effect solo ships
- 2 RR Cruisers in final wave, low hp and resistances, 130 dps repping power (against the 60% resistances of the other RR cruiser), site time will be a little slower

Yaay!!!!

Sry OP but no.

Meaby C1 but you will need something bigger for C2 or C3.

for c1 an omen cruiser migt be possible, eventul navy vexor. you dont want BC but harbinger will work fine, drake is also option. but from cruisers - omen and navy vexor.

for c2 definietly battlecruiser but best is to get a t3 ship

c3 . definietly tech 3 cruiser but battleship will work , optional two battlecruisers

Logical Amarr progression:
Omen for C1.
Navy Omen for C2.
Zealot or Legion for C3.

With tech two mods on a t1 cruiser you can do c1's. For c2's and c3's you will need at least a battlecruiser or blinged out faction cruiser.

I've been running c1 anoms on drake, but it takes forever and ever. So I've brought in Raven with rapid heavies - and it just blazes through anoms in no time flat. I do realize I won't be able to take it out unless CCP fixes repackaging at POS, but it paid itself many times over already, so I'm not really concerned, and it's much cheaper than going with T3 - and as we all know, losing a ship in w-space is not a matter of "if", but "when" :)

yes, yes, and yes. they can be all done in T1s, but c3s would go rather super slow as you would need to drop DPS for passive regen. as far as isk/hr, your best bet with T1 ships would probably be a c2. Lots of options to choose from. if memory serves correctly, a T1 cruiser might have a little trouble and you might have to step up to BC (myrm, harby, or gnosis). I would avoid stratios as it is a beacon of light....for people to kill. c3s are probably most efficient in BS.

Back when wormholes were new I ran c2s with a passive shield cane (3 lse, 3 purgers and shield power relays in the lows, if you ever cap out it is utterly miserable getting it off the floor short of docking up somewhere.) My skills both as a player and as a toon were bad back then and it was relatively stress free. Drake would work better than that terrible fit. For t1 cruiser I would probably try a caracal at extreme range although a battlecruiser is imo a much better option. There is safety in completing the site quickly.

Gila and/or Navy Vexor can run C2 sites without a problem.

If you can fly a cruiser, you can fly a battlecruiser and you should be doing so.
any BC can run C1-2 sites.

You can do c2 sites in an active tank assault frigate.

Gilas can solo C3 anomalies easily. Their DPS isn't great, but the stereotypical fully-passive shield regen fit finishes them in a reasonable amount of time. You really want Caldari Cruiser 5 for the shield resistances, though; if you only have Caldari Cruiser 4, stick to C2s. Drop a mobile depot in case you want more tank or gank so you can refit drone damage amps or shield power relays as needed.

Even with pretty terrible skills, this'll get you through any Class 3 anomaly. The two hard data & relic sites will eat you, though. Test it in a Fortification Frontier Stronghold on Sisi first so you can make sure you are up to the task. And carry some spare drones, because although the drones are tough, they're not invincible.

Flies like a drone Drake, but finishes sites about twice as fast. In a C2, you can drop down the tank a lot for much better gank. Once again, get a sense for what you can do on Sisi before taking this live on TQ. This is the most conservative, heaviest-tank fit.
