There is a vid of a solo nag in c5 sites
Wasn't Arty fit though, whole idea revolved around killing the BS as they got to their orbit ranges

Also as i understand it, the escalation rats spawn where you land?

Yeah, i know the video. It was an autocannon fit built for tracking.
I was also interested in a Solo C5 Thanny vid i saw but you have to fiddle around with the fitting or use a high-ish CPU implant.
Fairly certain that escalations don't spawn at where you land or else the whole "warp cap at 100km and warp off/cloak" trick for killing daytrippers wouldn't work. Speaking of, we got dunked by an archon who did warp in at 100km and the escalation spawned on us.

I'll have to test it on SISI one day.

the escalation wave spawns about 60k (i think its 60, would need to verify tough) straight upwards of the beacon, when you warp at 0 you just go straight up and do a bookmark, then warp dread to it and start the killing, the concept in itself is actually easy, the hard part is securing the wh's and making sure no one will gank you while you are runing the site

So if I make a bookmark about 1/2 way between the warpin spawn and the escalation spawn, and warped in at range, I could theoretically snipe the sleepers?

I'm not sure what making a bookmark 1/2way between the points would do for you (as ive never done WH's to that extent) but you could just (if looking for range of the escalation spawn) bookmark the escalation spawn point, and warp in at range?

It was an attempt on my part to figure out if an arty naglfar would work in a solo C5 site.

TL;DR: It wouldn't really...

Considered sticking some toons into nullsec, karmafleet tax is back up to 15%, any other takers for a ratting specific toons which will just generate income if you leave them alone? - srs don't want to grind sov

If you have any friends in SMA you can angle yourself into a lowtax corp there. Most of their space is empty, especially the areas bordering GSF space.

I have no friends :( .... in 0.0 :D

so i ran my first VG's last night. 2 nestors, 1 bhalgorn, 5 sentry Domi's, 3 Gecko/Accolyte's. that was... an experience. Def gonna stay overtanked till i can get the hang of things, but this is fun. Took it REAAAAALY slow. still make 500m in an hour.

this is fun.

next investment is definitely going to be to buy a booster as running without one was a little rough and I don't want to wait a year to train one up. did nothing but NCO's might try OTA's if i can get one of my buddies to send me armor links.
