I found a Gravimetric Deadspace Complex using exploration probes. But the plex seems to be impossible.
When i warp in there everything locks me and start shooting. I can't tank it.
Anyone got any experience with this?

Get a friend/alt to warp into it in an inty loaded with speed mods and the best AB you can find (gistii A types are only about 10 mil).
As soon as he warps in he hits the burners and goes into a 30k orbit around an object and gets general agro. Rats will form a nice easy to shoot ball around the object. Dispose of at your leisure. ------------ Crow Squad... An Audio and Visual Joygasm by Larkonis Trassler |

Either that or deploying a Commandship tanked as heavily as you can (with a focus on resists) and supporting reppers/boosters. I know that there are commandship setups that can tank pretty insane amounts of damage if they're given proper support.

It's doable. A command ship, say a Sleipnir or Claymore, tanked to the nuts and a logistics cruiser or two (amarr ones) feeding cap. Fit a XL shield booster on the Sleipnir with exp, kinetic and 2 invul II hardeners.
As an alternative give the bookmark to the site to me and I'd be happy to show you in person

Plexes are evil. CCP is evil for making them.
We found one once which had Sanshas on the first stage and on the second Sanshas and Guristas. Of course nothing points at it until you warp in to the second part.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

humm... the inty approach might not necessarily work... quite a few archangels tend to paint. the blockade (lvl3 AND lvl4) is doable with a vaga but it gets tough as soon as the painters help those kinetic missles. with the numbers of enemies from this screenshot, i fear it'll be the same problem but much worse due to the limited fitting options on an inty

A few weeks, maybe a month back, someone else posted an account of their wranglings with an uberplex, and the multiple losses they suffered. I can't remember enough specifics to do an eve-search, but can anyone else remember this? Some of the observations the poster made could be very helpful to the OP.

Well so far I've gathered;
5 Hours to find the site. 2 Hours to figure out how to do it. 1 Hour to get a sleipnir, setting it up. 2 min for the rats to pop my sleipnir, loosing 300mill along with it.
Conclusion:

I tried to take a group of six into one of the complexes, and then later took 16. Didn't matter, the npc's would pick out one ship, destory it and move on. No matter the amount of tanking. The most success we had was taking in an assult frigate and remote tanking it up. but it still died between the reps.

Step 1. Get somebody who can actually tank to get agro.
Step 2. Get at least two other ships with large remote reps on them, to rep the main tank.
Step 3. (Optional) Remote energy transfer ship for the remote rep ships/main tank.
Step 4. Rest of your fleet pounds the rats in the plex.
It takes teamwork and a decent number of people to do these plexes. If your looking for soloing, go back to running missions.

Get an Oneiros, or whatever the Caldari one is. That and a few other repping friends on a decent tanker should be able to tank just about anything.

Yes, i have explored successfully, and and it was enjoyable. Until i found this site and spending all that time and lose 300mill in 2min, that just gives me the signal that maybe that site might be a tad overpowered.

I had a few friends (5 accounts) run something similar. We have a raven tanked for damage, the others all in remote shield tankers. We almost lost the raven to the alpha-strike, but after that, killing the npc's was easy.
Just do that CCP suggest, think outside the box and bring friends

why are you so obsessed with doing it solo? a dev has just TOLD you it takes more than 1 person, and you're in a corp i KNOW is packed full of high experience members. it sounds to me like the reward will be enough for 2 of you. try a scorp with a logistics with it or something. judging by the screenshots, its not too hard, but you need to use sheild/armour/cap transfers.

Not all the sites can be done by yourself. You telling me there's no one else in CA you trust to run that site with you and split the loot? Or no one else who would help you with the npc's just for the hell of a new challenge?
I don't think it's overpowered at all, you just don't want to risk having to split the loot with someone else. It's not like you're going to stumble onto a vaga bpo or anything, there's plenty of other sites you can do by yourself that probably have a chance of dropping the same stuff you'll find there. And I can pretty well guarantee that even if you manage to pull off that spawn by yourself there will be others waiting after it, and they might be even harder.

I don't mind sharing.
But the amount of people that needs to get involved in doing this specific site, makes me think that it's really not worth the effort. That's all.
Now just let this thread die. I'm starting to get over my loss already

The real problem is that some deep 0.0 sites are easier than level 3 missions (and don't drop any loot at that!), and some are 10/10 complexes. Its not at all easy to determine which type of site you've found until its far too late to do anything about it. --- Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail. - Emerson |

Perhaps instead of trying to let the sleipnir run the tank, let it run a buffer + resists only. Get logistic ships to run the tank. Not that hard and works on pretty much every scale. If in doubt, add more logistics 
If the sleipnir doesnt work, take one of the new BS like the Rokh, set it up like this:
Hi: Whatever
Mid: 1x Explosive T2 1x Photon T2 1x Heat T2 1x Ballistic T2 2x Invul T2
Low: 4x T2 PDS 1x T2 Damage Control
Rigs: 3x Core Defence Field Extender I
End result with BS lvl 4: 18856 shield (with my skills) 80.7% EM 92.3% Explosive 88.4% Kinetic 84.6% Thermal
Without using faction gear, this gives damned good resists with a buffer that should last long enough for your logistic buddies to warp in and shield rep you.
You dont even need actual logistic ships, 2 or 3 domi's with cap rechargers + medium / large shield reps work just fine. If not, add more.
Another option is to try and speed tank, I've never tried that myself though. Principle is the same, get a large buffer on a small ship, speed mods etc on it, and keep it moving.
Count yourself lucky though, I've only found this bugged crap: http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=451509

Angel Provisional HQ Complex..... Un-Doable.
Massive Lag and insta lock and fire from npc's. Lost 2 Fully and tanked t2 bs's in under 20 secs.
It was entered 4 more times in various ships to yield the same result.. Fly in with 20 friends and they will probably all die, so don't do it.
I have found over 60 plex, arcsals, hack and mining belts in .o space... Believe me if you find this site as listed above. Run far far away.. And hand over the book-mark to someone that you dont like...lolol

Well, guess it gets nerfed, before I get the chance to try it out now. Devs don't like kiting rats, that's one reason why we have deadspace.  ______________

Kiting != speed-tanking...
Kiting will not work, try it in a belt at a certain amount of KM the rats give up and target others... Bad for your gang

If these things randomly aggress, maybe the right tactic to taking out 30 battleships is just to jump in with 30 battleships.
Or have one guy jump in with a disposable ship to take the first volley while everyone else jumps in and then get randomly aggro'd.
Or, instead of letting the NPCs pick which ships to shoot at, come in with some EW ships and jam them so they can't shoot at all.
Can you jam NPC POS guns?
Seems the failure point of the tactics here is trying to have a single tank in the first place. Since keeping up with that damage appears nigh impossible, try something other than having a single tank.
I also had another thought - what if, once you first go into the site, a timer of sorts starts - and the longer it takes you to complete the complex, the less loot there is in the final can. So, if it takes you three days, by the time you loot the can there's barely anything left. But if you go in there and take it out in an hour or two, then you get mad loot.
This would make sense in a multi-payoff exploration site. If you discover it and happen to be mining oriented and mine out the roids in the first stage, you get billions of mining isk. If you're combat oriented and kill everything in a couple hours, then you get mad loot. _____ Lifewire is a big, ugly, mean... carebear. |

Don't blame the complex, it's your fault =P You had been lucky enough to get to what look as being the final excalation, but you blew it.
also, many complexes have anti-solo things, like that AF killing mini-doomsday device when you blow up the excalation starting structure.

Edited by: Tharrn on 28/01/2007 19:18:34 Risk vs Reward makes combat exploration sites totally worthless - the best you can expect to get out of it are chunky roids to mine. The loot, plain and simple, sucks ass. If you state otherwise, Jiekon, you seem to look at other loot tables than we do.
Now recruiting!

Conclusion:
Not ****in Worth It  Exploration sucks donkey a$$ 
Wait a second.
In a earlier post you stated that you started exploring for the "riches it holds", going on to claim that skillbooks and other stuff goes for high prices. In other words, it seems to me it has been profitable for you so far.
Then you run into one complex which ain't worth it, too hard, whatever, and so now, Exploration sucks donkey ass?

While we haven't done many of the combat encounters (total 3) we have never found anything of use.
People can and do farm plexes in 0.0 everyday. Those plexes never change, the same method works everytime. These people make billions.
Others spend hours upon hours to find an exploration site that 97.5% of the time plain and simple isn't worth it.
I don't see why they don't make exploration in 0.0 more profitable than running a stupid static plex. It should be that way. Not only are they more challenging, they have a much higher risk factor. Thus, they should have a larger reward. Its easy to log in after DT and have your ship warp to a 10/10 plex with 20 other guys. Its hard to find an exploration site and THEN have 20 guys fit for the occasion and travel however many jumps it is... ~~~~~~~~~ Hey Gai. Bak Off Coz Ai Bang Yu Hawd. K Gai? |
