Need help with C1/2 Confessor

Hey guys
Ive been experimenting with a confessor a bit, but I cant figure out how to tank most of the c1/2 sites.
Got the following issues:
Sentry guns nearly volley me off the field
The 5x NOS cruisers in that one c1 site is too much for me
That Sleepless Watchman spawns at 60 and thus gets good shots on me, didnt risk it

I managed to handle all the other stuff, be it neuts or battleships

This is my current fit

[Confessor, C1]
Small Armor Repairer II
Capacitor Power Relay II
Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II
Capacitor Power Relay II
Small Armor Repairer II

1MN Y-S8 Compact Afterburner
Cap Recharger II
Cap Recharger II

Small Focused Pulse Laser II
Small Focused Pulse Laser II
Small Focused Pulse Laser II
Small Focused Pulse Laser II
Expanded Probe Launcher II
Improved Cloaking Device II

Small Capacitor Control Circuit II
Small Capacitor Control Circuit I
Small Auxiliary Nano Pump II



tbh I just want it to do C1, but if someone could tell me how to do the C2 aswell that'd be nice
cheers

I've used this in Wolf Rayets mostly, but it does regular C2s too, just make sure you're in defensive when you land and get transversal velocity on the turrets before you do anything else. In sharpshooter with Aurora it hits to over 50km's so it's pretty versatile and cap stable with everything running.

Im not going the NOS way, bad experience with that. Besides, can you really tank 4 sentries with one rep? Their volley seems too strong
Alternatively gib jackdaw fit

The nos has no negative effect. It allows you to steal cap from anything that gets too close. Your fit doesn't have high enough armour resistance to take real advantage of a repper but with high enough resistance, the one repper should suffice. You shouldn't be thinking about going toe to toe and fully tanking the npc's - you should be trying to fly smart.

Speed is key, speed is life when flying small things like the t3 destroyers especially! Smile
Flown both confessor and Jackdaw, both work fine in c1 as long as your not expecting them to be flown like a brick tanked drake.

You'd be better offf fitting for and limiting yourself to those sites that are suited for T3Ds, mainly c2 and mainly perimeter hangar and enclave 27 afaik. Sentries are a major obstacle you can simply ignore by not running those sites, suddenly you can bust through with eanm and single rep and get 2-3 heat sinks going.

C1 apply significantly more damage to small hulls than c2 sites, I'd just skip C1s unless you want to use a specialized legion (HPL, scorch, nearly no tank), or zealot if need be.

It is possible to NOS sleepers dry, and the moment that happens your plan of tanking stuff really fails

Regarding C2's:

C2's don't have anywhere near the neuts that your fit implies. 2 CCC rigs, 2 chargers + 2 CPRs? Sounds to me like you need to train up some core skills before you go take on one of the most difficult PvE activities in EVE in an undersized ship. The 2 Cap Rechargers and CCC2 should be sufficient (might still need the CCC1 as well, but I don't think so).

A sufficient tank for C2 combat sites: dual SAR2, 1x EANM, 1x DC2, 1x Heat Sink 2, primarily use defensive mode, and keep that AB activated. Be sure to close QUICK when the BS' target you (get under their tracking). Even so... good luck on those 2x BS waves.

Due to flight time from one target to the next (some BS like to keep 60km+ out), the confessor makes a great support-ship to bring along to a C2 combat site, sure... but not a good solo ship for the endeavor. You'll be far too vulnerable for far too long for it to be wise/safe due to this issue alone.

Step 2: Fit missile launchers to your drake.

confessor on c12/c13 wormhole needs something like that


4 beam lasers 1 nosferatu 1 sisters probe launcher and sister probes .
for lasers have spare crystals if you use meta lasers imperial navy gamma x 12 imperial anvy standard and imperial navy multifrequency both small class also imperial navy radio too all small sized.

medium slots afterburner 1mn and 2 cap rechargers

low slots damage control tech2 two energized adaptive nanomembranes and corpi A small armor repairer and 200mm steel plating II as rigs you can use two trimar armor pump rigs t2 variants and one CCC t1 rig variant if you like ccc rigs otherwise would use nanobot injector rig . it will be cap stable . if you are nopoor and ou have cpu problems use palisade cap rechargers federation navy 1mn afterburner and shadow serpentis energized adaptive nanomembranes .

if you want scan down mobile depots, mtu's you need sisters expanded probe launcher and combat scanner probes
