Sounds like you found some Sleeper sites; perhaps Superior Sleeper sites. Yup, those are a real pain in the stern to pin down. I am not aware of any new or harder sites introduced recently. The Superior sites may hang around for quite some time as most pilots are unable to pin them down enough to warp to the starting gate and those than can sometimes elect to go elsewhere (for some strange reason). They show up in all sec levels/systems; you may have not have found any in lo/null sec because more pilots there are skilled enough to pin them down and loot them.


They basically require near max scanning skills with high end scanning gear, ie cov ops frig 5 and sisters gear , etc

Well, my normal covops setup gets 132.2 scan strength. Max skills, T2 launcher, core probes, grav caps, and a rangefinding array just because I have a slot to spare, whatever. No implants.

It definitely has a bit of headroom, even on superiors.

I haven't tried with all 4s in a T1, but it doesn't sound ludicrous. Probably pretty tight, if doable.

I'd feel pretty confident in a T1 with astro/rangefinding 5, 2 rangefinding arrays, sisters equipment, and a T2 gravcap (121 strength).

Easily doable in a T1 with all 5s, for sure (128 strength with the above setup).

Shu t'Me claimed that end content exploration sites is scannable in T1 frig+sister set+IV lvl skills. And they are not, they are design that way. They required 105 and more scan strenght. And I tried that on many hulls. So no, low level can't scan them, but there are so many mods, rigs and implants that are boosting scan strenght that it is totally possible with them.


I don't think he really meant to suggest that it was an otherwise unfit ship.

If 105 is the threshold, a T1 scanning frigate with Sister launcher, Sister probes, and 2 grav caps comes in at 104 with level 4 skills.

A rangefinding array I brings it to 106.

everything you want to know about sleepers. Good stuff.
