Content for 3-4 ppl (WH faming with fresh accounts?)

o/

Together with 2-3 friends we are looking for best suitable content which could benefit that we are playing together. I have quite good skills for all kind of sub-caps (2x chars with 50-60m SP). But my colleagues are brand new here.

Currently what we would like to try is farming WH. And here are main questions:

  • how to compose simple gang with what we have,
  • C2 is only option / is it possible to run C3?
  • 2-3x DPS + logi (which?)
  • or maybe Cruisers / BC on spider tank?

Thanks in advance for any kind of advice here.

Been a long time since I’ve gone w-hole diving which I always did solo…

So I can’t really offer any advice other than to start off with C1 and get familiar at working as a fleet before moving into higher level w-holes…

C3s as a cruiser group is entirely doable, easier if you have dedicated logi. Some BCs can solo C3 content, so if you ran them with a group of those it would be a cake walk.

Captain Benzie has a lot of videos analyzing the various ships used in Wormholes, I’d suggest watching a few of those to help you decide.

Thanks, i saw his videos. But he is focusing on soloing them. Building them on active tank. What i was considering is 3 DPS on pasive shield tank + dedicated LOGI (scythe / scimi).

What i would like to understand mainly is how to build logi for such purpose. Is it even possible in this game to have one “healer” per gang? Playing so long i was part of many fleets but there was either no logi if small nano gang or plenty of them if huge STRAT op.

3-4 Vexor Navy Issues can definitely spidertank C3. Given that the pilots have good RR and tanking skills of course.

But thats not really much DPS and if you have to share the profits… meh.

Why not simply use 3 Praxii with RapidHeavies+Drones? There are dirt-cheap Fits for absolute beginners that can solo-tank C3s, means 3 of them in one place will clear the sites very quickly, will have no tank issues and also offer a bit of protection, because attacking 3 battleships isn’t that easy for solo-hunters in a T3 for example.

You could even use the same 3 Battleships to roll-off some unwanted connections, as they offer high enough mass to close holes with only a few jumps.

Each person being able to solo the sites if something goes wrong gives you a much larger safety margin to learn them. If you want to bring dedicated logi, it just makes things easier for all, but your focus in wormholes should really be on getting the site done before someone lands on grid to shoot you, and that takes DPS not reps.

But, if you really want to do it the hard way, look into the Drake. You can put a lot of raw shield HP onto a drake, and shield reps hitting at the beginning of the cycle instead of the end will help your logi pilot get his role down.

Hi there

maybe you and your friends shold think about the Gila.

Cheap, fast and a simple passive fit.

Years ago we run C3-greensites within 10-15 minutes with 3-4 vessels
