?? Misclick?
I’ve been running EC’s with 2 chars in T2 Drakes (passive regen) with T2 Light Missiles.
Not the fastest nor the most efficient, but relatively ‘easy’ all the same.
I’ve just moved one char into a T2 Gila for more DPS.
Drop MTU, orbit, recall drones after each wave, profit.
I’d run the EC’s with 3 chars if I had another account to maximise the payout.
That said Loot and Salvage is somewhat meh - only reliable source of additional ISK are the surveys if you sell them to DED.
Here is what I used when it was worth using.

before the resist change, could tank the whole site.
I tried with a few abyssal webs, was better (99% web is better than 90 ^^ )
warp in, warp to the roid behind the black portal at 70km, use your “approach” key to approach a point in space right in the portal, shoot kikis first, then starving, then cruser, then frigate. drop MTU once close enough the black portal, or at last wave. Target named first.
With the nerf this fit should have lost approx 30% tank, I was never close but you never know, if fit for more tank : replace one cap rig with axuiliary, sebo with cap recharger.

drones are useless.
I have found out though trial and error that your overall tank is not so important in the Emerging Conduits. The precursor DPS starts out low and ramps up over time. Kill them quickly and you’ll find your tank is rarely if ever tested. If you are having to warp out one or two times it’s because your not killing them fast enough and by trying to make your tank better you are compounding this problem. Try using a Micro Jump Drive this breaks their lock on you and re-sets their DPS. Better than warping out.

never had to warp out in a vindi ?
Here’s what I ended up with post resist nerf. It finished solo but it is close. The first run I was cycling the booster and forgot to turn in on until about 10% shields in the last wave. It just BARLEY hung in there and I took about 10% armor damage. Cap stayed stable. Probably would’ve been fine if I had left the booster running.

Can be done easily with an orca so long as you have industrial command ships 5 and a healthy lvl of drone skills.
With a half decent fit has 350k + hp and around 700+ DPS from augmented drones.
Take out the target painting ships first and all is good.

Do the random roving spawns still sometimes warp in on you? I have had some sad times when having that happen to me.
A full additional wave with new scrams/neuts on top of extra Leshak and friends.
Never had that happen in emerging conduits.
Maybe it was in the next one up?
I found it. They happen in Major Conduits… Can attest getting wrecked.
Site can be further reinforced by Roaming Fleets warping in from elsewhere in the system. Roaming Fleets are around 15-20 random ships. If one Roaming Fleet warps in, it is very likely that two or three additional reinforcement waves will warp in over the next few minutes. (This can mean that a Flashpoint can be Sealed, and payouts given, while their are still ships on grid.)

Major and minor conduits != emerging conduits. They are definitely more challenging.
Apparently, Emerging Conduits have been removed from non-invasion systems.
When did that happen?
Last Tuesday.
Yes it’s gone and it makes me a sad miner. No more zydrine and megacyte.
Can’t play this game anymore 
(sarcasm for those who read everything literally)
Was only briefly looking, but the sites still had asteroids in it. Talassonite or something like that.
Yeah, content is the same, just the way they spawn appears to have changed.
EC’s are back btw.
They can be found in systems ‘abandoned’ by the Trigs.
In terms of rats they are more like the ‘old’ Minor Conduits in that the rats are mainly Cruiser and up sized rats. Same 4.5 million ISK per player and as I’ve only run one of them I cannot comment on the overall loot levels and if they have changed.
You can get roaming fleets warp in on you now also, and there are roaming Trig and Edencom fleets in the system, along with Edencom content.
The EC’s are tougher than before, and you get Anchoring (scrambling) rats on grid.
Not solo’able in dual boxed T2 Drakes anymore

LOL @ multiboxing EC’s…one Rattlesnake that never has to move, along with one Gecko, and I’m yawning at the end. Same ship can do Minor conduits solo as well…roaming fleets or not. Y’all are working a lot harder than you need to…but hey…you do you.
