They are doable but you should mitigate your risks as much as you can. Scout the system and account for people. Having anyone warping to the FOB will draw a spawn. Watch local too. Use a covert-ops ship and combat probe the FOB, you want to put a few bookmarks there. One or more beyond neut range (\>275km) where you can deal with the FOB spawn before hitting the structure. Put another at your optimal range. Whatever ship you choose, have a mobile depot, mobile microjump unit, and drones to refit. Microjump unit is backup#1 I also recommend an alt in a throwaway “hero” ship that can warp to the FOB if you need to evac. It should have at least one offensive module +drones. This is your backup#2. Most people use the passive Rattlesnake it seems. I have done both faction FOBs sniping with a Golem at 280km. Takes longer, but I have less issue with the response fleet that spawns from the Hauler at the FOB. I can ignore the ECM from the Guristas, thx bastion. If I get the multiple Osprey spawn I usually warp out and wait for a better spawn the next attempt. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/guristas-fob-tips/254707)._
