Just wondering if there is a chance for the recon ships to run low class WH combat sites against sleepers.
Should be quite hard and slow but I just wonder if anyone has ever tried this?

Should be possible in C1 space. Perhaps C2 but would be difficult/slow

I imagine you're thinking of doing so because of the d-scan immunity, but just remember that the wrecks still show up on scan, which will alert hunters to your presence.

You'll spend much longer on grid due to the slow speed of clearing the sites, while not affording yourself much more protection. Plus I doubt you could clear more than a C2, so overall it probably has a worse risk profile than doing sites in a ship more built for purpose.

For Lols it could be done to some extent with a Rook. Warp into site, drop mobile depot right at the warp in (carry jams in your cargo) and run the site. With a bit of luck, the company tackler may decloak due to the depot. If you do get tackled, go for the combat refit (while that still works), jam the bad guy and warp away. I doubt a Rook could manage more than a C1, but you might have fun trying.

Well thx guys for those are some nice suggestions and analysis, actually I did bring this up just cause the recon has that d-scan immunity... But yea this probably is a bad ideaP

curse or lachesis shield tank/fit might work but its very difficult and ineffective since with other ship you will do more sites than with your recon . cerberus , ishtar are way better but stratios can do them pretty fast too

I killed a Lachesis running anoms once, I forget whether it was in a c1 or c2 though. So it is possible, just don't assume it makes you any safer, in fact once caught you'll be quite easy to kill.

C1 and C2 sites are doable, just don't be a dumbass and launch drones to clear the sites
