Edited by: King Rothgar on 23/03/2009 11:40:04 So out of boredom I decided to probe out a wh and maybe gank a few low level sleepers for ****s and giggles (and loot too). I promptly found one in my home low sec system and jumped my anathema in to poke around. It was a low level w-space system that I could easily solo so I took a look in an anomaly to see what to expect, just 2 frigs and 2 cruisers, easy enough. While searching for an archeology or hacking site for better profits, I found something even more interesting, an uncloaked buzzard.
He hadn't been there initially (or he was cloaked anyways) and I thought it a fluke so I kept spamming directional scan waiting for him to vanish but he never did. Moments later, a pod appeared at the same location. Perhaps I had found a lost pilot who had given up on finding an exit. It wouldn't be the first time. I watched with interest and attempted to probe out the ship with the hopes of stealing it. Given that I can't fly one, I put out a call in alliance and a blue quickly raised his hand to seize or kill the ship, depending on whether or not it was truly abandoned.
While getting the warp in, something even better showed up, a pair of BS's (raven and maelstrom) sitting at a planet at 0m. I put forth a second call, this time to gank 2 sleeper killing pve'ers. I followed them silently in my anathema, watching as they blew through the low level plexes while waiting for atleast 1 ally to assist in their demise. After about 30 minutes, my ceo (bellum eternus) arrived in his abaddon. My main's abaddon was also armed and ready to go. Jumping into the wh, we fleet warped to the two BS's, taking them totally by surprise.
Bellum pointed the maelstrom, I pointed the raven and we focused on the raven first. The plex we fought in had 2 sleeper cruisers and a bunch of hacking cans. On jumping in the sleepers immediately targeted us and began firing, the fools. We pressed our attack on the BS's. The raven died swiftly to our megapulses and the maelstrom, though tougher, didn't fair any better. Bellum took a bit of damage from the sleepers and warped out with 60% armor. I was still at full but my shields were gone. I exacted swift justice on the two foolish sleepers, thus spawning a BS with full support. I warped out as well at that point though I hadn't taken any real damage.
We had bm'd the two wrecks and so warped directly back to them. The maelstrom was a straight T2 fit, nothing at all special there. In fact the pilot had overheated his guns so badly that it cost almost as much to repair them as they cost in the first place. The raven was another story. Though a standard raven, it featured 2x Gist B-type hardeners and 1x Gist A-Type. The A-type was destroyed in the explosion, but both B-types dropped. The raven also dropped 130M isk worth of sleeper loot as well which we have since sold. The two hardeners are worth about 40-45M in jita each.
