I did several sites with 2-3 competitors, I had not the impression that the spawns changed.
Just did them in a drake, then a ferrox, then a hurricane.
They respond well to the increased dps and utility that shiny provides but do not nearly require it.
Honestly, I canât believe you were able to finish the site with your fit. Sideways said that he was barely able to do it with a 285 EHP/S rep, and you only have around 117 EHP/s rep (cold) against a uniform damage profile.
Anyway, yes, I recommend dropping the Trimark Armor Pumps. They barely give you any buffer, and that buffer doesnât really accomplish anything here anyway. So, yeah, you should probably swap the two trimark armor pumps with an Auxiliary Nano Pump and an Anti-Kinetic Pump. That will increase your rep by 23% to 144 EHP/s cold.
And come back and let us know what happens. If you can consistently run these sites with that tank, then it means that the minimum viable tank is lower than I though.

So no T2 Battlecruisers, but Pirate/Faction are ok?
âŚLooks sadly at my dusty EOS⌠
Might be I had an easy one âŚ
I donât know. Could you not get in with a Command ship?
The frigs and destroyers were overly easy to kill when dual webbed, lets say 3-4 shots. The cruisers took too long for my taste.

Ppl reported in the other thread that no command ships.
Iâll try it anyway, if I can find a site

Thatâs nice to know.
Well then there is not much to complain about in terms of difficulty, time for people unable to solo this to realise that this is an MMO, content do not have to be balanced around soloplay.
Iâm willing to buy it. The increased damage over what I had is going to be fairly significant, with T2 ammo / guns and gyrostabs. I donât have the skills for T2 guns, and dropped gyros in favor of more cap modules, so I donât think I did much more than 300dps with faction ammo. My 285 ehp/s went under veeeery slowly, and I can easily imagine Bachet making up for half the tank with that much more dps.

This is my next try, I had to change the T2 battery to the meta variant because of powergrid issues, left off the AB and took a tracking computer to aid the bigger guns. Not yet tested in a real site though, use with caution and common sense

Wouldnât even be so bad if the rewards werenât godawful for the effort involved.
Ran a couple in a T2 fit Brutix, but tank was hairy in some spawns and the loot is so bad that I probably would have made more doing literally anything else with my time, and on top of that you have to loot/salvage to get said crap loot.
Also, since there are 5-6 waves and only the last wave can even drop anything remotely decent, along with the crap respawn time, youâre likely to have someone come in during the last pocket and potentially get the loot. Since there are no bounties and everything pre-final pocket is worthless, itâs just a waste of time. Woo?

Cheap alpha build, for those complaining that itâs Omega only. Cost: 80m. Make it back in a few sites.
Try and stay 5k from the rat youâre shooting.

If you canât use T2 guns yet, then switch to Modal Neutron Particle Accelerator I with Antimatter, and you donât need the Tracking Computer, so you have a free midslot which you could use for another battery for more stability against the neuts, or an afterburner if you want to get to your loot more quickly.
Obviously, if you are able to deadspace any of the modules (especially the repper) then things become easier.

I donât know. They have a low drop rate, but youâd think at least some would have hit the market. Maybe thereâs a bug?

Finally found a site after 15 minutes, got to solo for a test so that was good.
Damn trigs nuking my drones from 400km away⌠wtf?
Completed with T2 HML Navy Drake.
3.5M in loot, and a T1 Hardshell? Also no drones left so a net loss.
Meh. Will wait a few days and possibly try again.
