Suggestions for this stratios fit

Im still new to eve sort of and im trying to have a somewhat cheap fit for my stratios.

Heres what I have on it so far, any suggestions are welcome.

Thank you.

I don’t know much about WH ratting, but at least go faction drones. And meta any T1 mods.

So a couple of things, the first being I wouldn’t attempt flying the stratios in WH space until you’re able to use the covert ops cloak (T2), as being able to warp cloaked (to check sites/WHs/etc) is a massive advantage in WHs.

The second is I’m not sure I’d bother with the Drone link augmentor, it does give you an 80km range for your drones, but the stratios (max skills) can only lock out to ~68km, without the mod your drone range drops to 60km (max skills)… though I do realise you’re probably not at max range for drone skills yet.

I’d be inclined to drop the Shield Extender for a Cap Battery to ensure you’re able to constantly run the shield booster.

I guess it would look something like this:

But having said that, it’s not a fit I would recommend. The role bonus for the stratios for lasers is for range, which isn’t that great, the two notable bonuses (amarr & galente cruiser) are for armor res and drone dmg.

Depending on your armor tanking skills you might consider something like

High slots i’ve left empty, you could put lasers in there, or neuts (which may help to escape when you get caught), and the mids are also up for debate, more cap recharge if that’s lacking, instead of the web, for e.g.

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much I felt that the fit I had didnt feel right to run in WH with. What weapons do you think would be a better fit?

Well if you’re going to put guns on it, lasers (cause bonus) or projectiles (no cap usage) would be decent choices… the issue with lasers and an active tank is puts additional strain on your capacitor, and in a WH there’s a very good chance you will (at some point) be engaged by other players, less cap = less tank = dead faster. The ‘issue’ with guns is you’re using all your damage mods for Drones (due to the ship bonuses) so they really are a secondary weapon on the stratios (which is usually what Drones end up being on most non-drone ships).

I had a fit I was using for the high sec events that used lasers & heavy drones:

You could fiddle with this to get it working for you (switch out T2 for best T1 you can afford), but I don’t know if the single armor rep will be enough for C1 & C2 sites.
