oh I just logged into the forum and this was the first thread on the notify.

my bad I had just read " You have time until 11:00 UTC on 21 April to hunt down and destroy NPC capsules to gain access to special event sites and rewards."

Oh well but thanks for saving me heaps of time.

What Ships/Fits could some of the Pros of this thread recommend?

I found a YT video that suggests using a 120mil dessie fit, but that seems a bit excessive to me. Especially since I don’t see quick return on investment from this.

Thanks!

Awesome! I was thinking of using my Worm. May I ask to see your fit?

I’m thinking the optimal strategy right now is to use an Interceptor, like a Raptor, that can quickly fly around the moons and kill pods quickly. Something like:

> [Raptor, Raptor]  
> Micro Auxiliary Power Core I  
> Magnetic Field Stabilizer II  
> Magnetic Field Stabilizer II
> 
> Fleeting Compact Stasis Webifier  
> Faint Epsilon Scoped Warp Scrambler  
> 5MN Y-T8 Compact Microwarpdrive  
> Caldari Navy Medium Shield Extender
> 
> Light Ion Blaster II  
> Light Ion Blaster II  
> Light Ion Blaster II
> 
> Small Anti-EM Screen Reinforcer II  
> Small Core Defense Field Extender II
> 
> Void S x360

Then, you take all of the keys you find, and toss them into dedicated combat ship. I personally use a Magus, but I’ve seen people using Worms. Then you go out with 4-5 keys and all you’re looking for are those combat anomalies.

I’m using a Magus because it’s one of the heavier Destroyer ships that I can use that will a) clear the site relatively easily, and b) strong enough of a brawler so I can muscle in on someone else trying to run a site or attempt to steal mine.

Edit:  
I just snagged a kill on some guy who was brawling with the boss of the Huntmaster site. You can see the Gurista’s Automated VHMF-32 doing most of the damage. But I was able to swoop in, snag a kill on both, and then get out with the loot. There was a nice C3-X in there too.

Finally found the key and the site and completed one. Did it in a 15m dragoon too - although the boss fight was a little dicey and he almost broke my tank. Got a skin though!

Expanding on the comments above, there’s TONS of ewar. Neuts, webs, scamblers, jammers, everything.

If you’re bringing drones, bring faction drones - they hammered on my poor hobgoblins.

Edit: so ran with faction Hornets for the shield tank and had a much, much better time. Also started to overheat the rep on the boss and that really helps. Here’s the fit for anyone interested: [https://pastebin.com/WgxvgJ3R](https://pastebin.com/WgxvgJ3R) Pretty cheap way to do these.

Yeah, they _really_ hate drones. Fortunately the damage is low enough that they can be micromanaged, but fire-and-forget is not an option from what I’ve seen.

Do the Guristas Hunt Outpost appear everywhere or only in usual Guristas Space (i.e. Caldari)?

I’m also using a Hawk, but in High Sec. Almost same build, but with Arbalests, T2 ab, shield and invul and Pb-Acid Cap Batterys. I use an EE-602 implant for the CPU so I can put another rig instead the Small Processor Overclocking Unit II.

Spent about half or an hour to look for a capsule, got a firework, an asset, and a booster. Nothing valuable, not worth the time.  
Plus the incoming damage is not new player friendly, with quite a lot EM damage from Guristas…  
Cleared a site with worm, a type-c shield booster and an INV II can tank well, but better to orbit with AB to reduce EM missile damage. Not drone friendly.
