Stories From The Hole

So today I check my new spiffy Dominion Email as it told me on the login screen I had an email. A good friend of mine is in a corp that resides in a Class V hole. I haven’t spoken to him much, but he apperently remembered me and has offered me the opportunity to join him and his corp in their hole.

Before I could think of a response back, I dug up my API key and pasted it into my response email and told him to pass it on to those up the food chain. Then began the process of removing my directorship roles of my personal corp. So when I app, I am in a position to leave my corp.

It’s been an interesting last couple of days, I’ve lost more isk in lowsec than I ever have in a wormhole.

But as it stands, the corp is offering members 100 Mil. to find a hole with the following qualifications.

Class 3
With a Highsec Hole & A Class (2 or 3) Hole.

What would be best, Personally I feel a Class 3 with a permanent link to a class 2 which has a permanent hole to Highsec. Also has a permanent link to a Class 4.

While I do like the extra layer of security. This would be the perfect hole for me.

As for Dominion, I will probably be spending the first few couple of weeks working on my Caldari faction standings as I want to be able to get my own faction modules at a much lower price than market.

Ok, so this is supposed to be about wormhole adventures and all it seems to be about is fitting my tengu and other crap. Well we are moving to a Class 3 here soon. I do apologize to the few people who check this blog out I will eventually add stories from the hole. So till then back to the grind of fitting my Tengu.

So i’ve been playing around with Tengu Fits and decided to, what if I had no limit to isk on how to fit my Tengu. So i came up with this fit.

The call was made that while the hole was decent, we needed more of a challenge.  I do love challenges & hope that this new hole we are moving to has pleanty of combat/hacking sites as I prefer not to mine if I can help it. Thou the last few paychecks we have gotten from the ore mined from our hole.

Right now I’m playing with a few fits in EFT, when I get home i’ll post them and hope for opinions.

I haven’t been keeping up with the dev posts/blogs/etc… containing information around Dominion. One thing I have heard from a third party source that makes me giggle inside is the POS fitting will actually support Tech 3 subsystems. This will make my life so much easier considering I have to keep a scanning ship(Talon II) + Tengu (Avenger) at the POS.

I did finally bring in my hauler & have spent quite a bit of time hauling out the salvage & hauling in more fuel.

I wish I had hacking ( smacks self for lacking this ) I could of made quite a bit more.

oh well,

my two cents

EDIT: Still playing with EFT on my Tengu sorting through battleclinic setups and what I feel is better, who knows we shall see how my final fit ends up.

In the past week I finally finished the skills needed to fly a Tengu.  I am currently working on filling in the holes so I can actually use some of the specialized subsystems.  It’s been a quiet week for all who reside in the WH, most of us leaving to do can flipping & other training in what we consider normal space.

I have based my Tengu, off of my favorite passive Drake build.

High: (Caldari Navy) Launchers + Caldari Navy Scourge Heavy Missile’s
Med: 50% Shield Rechargers & 50% (Republic Fleet) Large Shield Extenders
Low: 100% Shield Power Relay II’s
Rig: Core Defense Field Purger’s ( currently I’s since II’s are gonna break me )

While I am still playing with this build, I do miss the drones, and I haven’t finalized my DPS numbers. I also haven’t tried out an active tanking build
