Just sit on a spawn point, sleepers usually approach you anyway. Its a mid-range ship, its not like its using blasters. Terribad isn't the word I'd choose.
Solo legion can give a solo tengu a run for its money if piloted well. Once you learn where the waves spawn in a site. Main reason is that C3 sites still have a fair number of frigs and cruisers. And the legion just melts them faster than a tengu. |

I have wondered how a 100mn HAM Legion would work...
Considering you don't have the isk, I'd suggest running incursions, exploration, or solo c2 sites and save up for a T3.
Have you tried it? Because I have with a legion friend of mine. We have raced anoms and the legion does far better then you would expect. It practically one shots the frigates and melts the cruisers faster than a tengu. The tengu can apply better damage on the battleships, but not like it used to since the furies range was merged.
A perfect pair is a tengu/legion. |

Were talking solo here - if you've got great cap skills, then yes, I could see that being partially true. Depends on the sites as well - some a legion will be completely nueted out no matter what.
So was I. Yes we ran together, but he also ran solo. And we raced solo each running the same site on our own.
His legion could solo all four anoms. He did say he occasionally overheated the tank. But we kept paste at the pos so it was all good.
This was his fit. Which is also good proof that running purely solo will eventually end up in a gank

So far all of your advise in this thread has been just bad. You should just stop. You've even admitted you haven't even run C3 sites in forever. And not since the neut change. |

So far all of your advise in this thread has been just bad. You should just stop. You've even admitted you haven't even run C3 sites in forever. And not since the neut change. Advising someone to run c3s solo is the original bad piece of advice. You should stop being a scrub. I've ran them since the neut change, but not since the cap battery change - I use fully passive ships when not cap escalating anyways. I personally have solo'd c3s in a Hyperion, without issues. The guy above me must suck with drone skills. His domi fit is going to get him killed someday, far sooner than using the Hyperion.
I don't see many in this thread advising anyone to run solo. The OP asked about ships that can solo. I even linked a KM to show a fit that CAN run solo fine, but also to illustrate it is a gank waiting to happen. learn2read.
You must not know Roime. I'm sure his drone skills are fine. And he can afford to lose that domi. You could lose 2 of those domis for the price of 1.5 Hyperion hulls.
And there is no need for a fully passive fit in a C3 or a C4 for that matter. |
