Yes I believe the vast majority of people understood what was being said without the need to derail the topic into a grammar lesson.
And since people are actually doing it, not trying, it means you completely misunderstood the point of the post.
But also since you actually replaced “trying” by “doing” it means you actually understand what he meant but decided to be an annoying kid focusing on something completely worthless.
LOL… pot, meet kettle!
< sigh > another quality post, keep up the good work.
Cypr3ss.
saved me having to type lol
I’m actually running these quite well solo in a HAM Nighthawk. No webs or grapplers. Tank is high enough to just sit there and shoot them down. There have only been a couple times, where the final wave spawns a few extra rats, that get dicey. But overall it’s serving me well for a change of pace from level 4 runs.
Blaster Tengu also works well. Around 9 minutes between DED rewards.
Faction Web is not really needed, just for convenience. Use Void all the time except for the Vedmak in the last wave: Use Null for it.
Tank is cap stable and slighty overtanked. Maybe a Pith-C will also do if you remove the main damage dealers first. Auto Targetting System is only there to lock more targets at the same time.
Less bling in the low slots also works but is slower, of course.

Yea that is similar to what I get with an AC loki. The only big difference is I put 2 salvagers in the utility high slots so I can salvage as I go. I finish up the salvage right about when the new site spawns.
I saw a link to one yesterday, but I’m unable to locate it again. For a Praxis shield fit that someone claimed to work well in these sites. I messed around in Eve Droid to build a fit for one. Don’t know how well it would work in actuality though.
Apologies for not using the standard template her, I’m on my cell.

Again, this is just something I was playing around with, I haven’t actually flown it. It’s focused on thermal as the rats deal mostly therm. Cap lasts for 1hr35min. Or cap stable depending on implants or mods.
Tanks about 527 DPS with ~77% therm resist. By comparison, my Nighthawk tanks about 498. Medium T2 drones do about 233 DPS on the Praxis.
@Destrto3 Any chance you could link that fit? Whats your clear time out of curiosity?
My Nighthawk fit? Yea I can share it. My average is about 12 minutes. I just modified this fit for my play style, more tank. Sit and shoot. I think I’m closer to around 1,000 DPS tank with trig damage type.

I like your approach, may you share the fit (especially rigs)? Never flown a Marauder before, though having the skills for long time.
When I fit something similar I’m short on cap, and there can be heavy neuting in the sites.

Thanks, then my guess about the rigs and shield booster was right.
Has anyone else noticed a massive batch of 3-5 day old characters running these sites in Rattlesnakes?
Same m.o., ship name and ship fitting. Warps to site, drops MTU, drops Caldari Navy Wasps, recalls drones three times and then proceeds to slow-clear the site with drones only. Loot only, even though ship has 2 salvagers fitted.
I see whole constellations now with these things…
BOTs possibly.
Shoot their MTUs and see what happens.
This. Take something long range and pop the MTU. I doubt the scripting will have contingencies to deal with that and you may just profit all the loot and salvage while the bot does all the work. For good measure plink some of the trigs to get LP credit.
I’ve been doing this easy in hi sec in an unremarkable Domi, and I’m not even configured for Trigs specifically (I was running Amarr epic arc and decided to take a break). To be fair, my drone and armor skills are max, so that makes it easier. Just warp in, point away from the conduit hole (the dark patch the spawns come from), and MJD to give you some breathing space between waves. Drop MTU. Open fire with guns to soften one up, or just wait until the frigs catch up. Launch a flight of meds or even heavies when the first target is within 20k. Kill dessies, cruisers, then frigs in normal order. Watch for them to target drones, though it’s rare when they switch. Salvage as you go. With proper cap management and target selection, usually no need to warp out.
Probably would go faster if I decided to fit specifically for the fight, but this is good enough. As I said, it’s fit for Amarr epic:

Martha (system) has special emerging conduits that drop slightly better loot. I’d advise running them there.
