Hi guys, so I tried out combat anomaly yesterday. I was flying a sniping commorant with a range of 50km shield tank. But when I’ve warped 60km to the Refugee. The sentries just chewed my shield easily before I could hit them. And rats also eating my hull so fast. How do you deal with those sentries?

Most Refuge Anomaly sites are basically a level 3/10 site which, in my opinion should be run with a Cruiser. Some of the Refuge Anomaly sites could even be classified as 4/10.
As for the Sentry’s, I always take them out first. I believe you’d be in a better position to do that by warping in at 0 km’s to quickly orbit them at top speed. I forget what their range is, probably about 100 to 150 km’s, maybe even more.
Course Destroyers aren’t really known for having a defensive tank. They can do pretty good in the 1/10 and 2/10 sites since they can quickly kill the NPC Frigates.
Personally I think a Destroyer is hard pressed to do any of the larger anomaly sites.
Edit:
Would help to know which site and how your ship is fit…

I think I did a Guritas Refugee site
Yeah, that’s definitely a ‘Glass Cannon’, I think it’s more suited for Fleet Ops than solo PVE.
Main thing I see is there’s no Defensive tank on it, plus there’s a big EM hole in your shield resists. Course Guristas mainly shoot Kinetic (79%) and Thermal (18%). However, the Sentry’s could be shooting EM damage which might explain why your shields melt so fast.
Personally I’d do a complete refit and make the ship a short range brawler. Course I mainly pilot Minmatar ships and my character is maxed out on most skills but I messed around in PYFA and came up with this fit:

Well, you’ll probably have different stats and maybe some fitting issues. Make sure to first do a ghost fit in-game with the fitting screen option ‘simulate fit’.
Also can use T1 mods if there’s an issue with using T2. I usually fit up my Defensive Tank first, then do prop followed by tracking / damage increase mods, then weapons. I usually fit rigs last in case any fitting issues are encountered, such as Capacitor or Power Grid shortage. If no issues, then I use rigs to help buff ship stats in resists and damage output.
