Wormholes

Greetings.

As the title says, what are the best ships, their respective fittings and good methods for wormhole solo PVP, in the current meta? Solo, in this case, means: 1 pvp ship + 1 cloaky scout/prober alt. Two accounts, same player scenario.

Any thoughts are appreciated. Thank you all.

Regards.

I would have to kindly disagree with the stealth bomber. You'll find that it is very limiting in terms of what you can gank and survive solo. An astero fit properly can beat you, a stratios will shred you, a t3 will dice you. My 2 favorite solo wh Pvp ships are the stratios and proteus. I am not at my computer for fits but it's fairly easy to find them for those 2 ships if you don't have the gunnery skills you can run neuts instead on the stratios

Stratios is undisputedly the best ship possible for solo wormhole hunting.

• Scan bonus to map chains and locate targets fast
• Easily fit to shield buffer, armor buffer, active armor, or even hull tank
• Drones do high application damage and flexibility
• High slot freedom for neuts (recommended) or lasers
• Huge number of mids for your choice of EWAR
• Cant take on almost any ship 1:1 from frigate to most Battlecruisers
• Looks incredibly sexy, especially with the WINGSPAN Firecell SKIN

Depends on the kind of hunting method you have. My personal preference is stalking wormholes for juicy PvEr targets. I used to use a covops neuting legion and a drone/neut/nullified/cloak+mwd proteus (if you can tackle the target with another ship, this Proteus will perform much better than a Stratios). Both hulls and pods were blinged (maybe 5b in total). You can take down up to solo c4/c5 marauders plus few people warping in with that kind of setup. Site runner Tengus or Rattlesnakes etc. are also among favorite preys.

Problem is that it will take days for you to find a suitable target, and for the target to get out and start doing sites, and for you to be online simultaneously. And watchlist changes kind of ****** this kind of hunting hard (but problems of nullseccers were ofc more important). So if what I'm after is juicy PvE ships I'd rather BLOPS hunt in nullsec instead these days. For wormholes you can go for less hardcore, more daily kind of hunting with a cheaper duo. If you are not afraid of losing your ship (I was due to the bling) you can always find causal fights in random ships of your choice.

PS: Don't pay attention to those who offer bombers. They are the best starter ship of hunting in wormholes but that's it really.

PS2: I think Chance is talking Stratios being the king of "real" solo in which he is right. But for dualbox setups a t3 specialized in scanning/tackling/neut warfare and a t3 specializing in dps can outperform alternative setups with one or two Stratioses.

an well skilled alt in a combat probing buzzard is my #1 must have weapon of choice.

Cloaky proteus, stratios, bombers, anything stealthy. If you need fits just convo me in game.

I didn't know CONCORD ships would be covops. All of them? Can you point the source?

Thanks.

Thanks! I like the enforcer stats!
