hi did anyone try to escalate two waves with one thanny and one triage archon/chimera? rough DPS is about 10K but I did not calculate the combined neut. Any thoughts?
Thanks for the information |

Talking about 2 carriers at the same time, I haven't tried it but, you should use some RR between them for sure, not sure if you are planning just to triage one of them, and other one does the dps and keeps the aggro with ECM. Anyways solo thanny + 2nd carrier at range spawning new sleepers is still more simple then that if you really can't use a solo dread + carrier at range.
with second escalation spawn at the same place as the first one? I did not do solo dread cuz Im afraid if rats run out of range. |

With better skills and better modules I think you could perma tank 6/8, but you will want to try the test server to see what I mean by better skills / fit. Check out Miton's escalation guide for the Archon fit. You will want 2 named local reppers.
I'd go Archon then Thanny, and you will need to be on the ball switching the archon reps / remote reps so you don't waste cap.
I understand why you might want to do this. Losing 2 fully insured carriers wouldn't be like losing the Archon / Moros / Loki, and if you only have 2 accounts...
My guess is that you'll want sentries. The agro is all over the place and I'd bet they will wipe the fighters out. Pull sentries if they get hit, and then throw them back out. You might still lose some but oh well. Optimal is 35km to 40km. You will be surprised how long it takes.
With the traffic in w-space these days though, you'll want to do it during off hours.
Nice layout of information, i appreciate it.
I've tried solo thanny for a while and it works, you can refer to LZHX's video. Sentries got wiped out instantly but fighters can survive under guardians. so I really need to test the solo trio in SISI first :)
big thanks! |

If you try a achron / loki / moros, you should know there are a couple modifications to Miton's guide. The loki uses the boosting sub (for web range) so it's not as tanky. It uses vampires to siphon off the carrier (mix of small and medium), because the carrier drops a cap transfer for an armor boost. My setup was minimum pimped and mostly level 4 skill, so you should be able to make it less almost-going-to-die but I'd still recommend as many name reppers as you can afford.
oh interesting method, i can do 4 boxes just fine but triple can really save a lot pain. I think web boosting sub does not affect tank or slots on loki? |

the dread needs somewhat high skills for it to work like t2 siege and so on
Will try after I got enough ISk to welp a capital combo :) yeah |

I think web boosting sub does not affect tank or slots on loki? I think the inference was the loki runs the skirmish link for web range which means using the warfare sub-system over the armour bonused defence sub-system. Sorry yes that is the correct inference. If you can do 4, use the fourth as a booster. The armor resist boost from the archon will be weak and higher resist will give your moros more time, plus your archon pilot can train other stuff besides boosting.
so the moros is armor tank? |
