It's called "Sansha Minefield".
So there i was deploying probes all over the place when i came up with a unknown signal.
After some probing, i warped to this entry gate.
Assembled the corp to take on this plex.
We had a tanker, ishtar, several BSs for DPS and 1 logistic to keep every1 in good shape.
We warp in, there's 2 sansha stasis tower that web up to 250km, several cruise sentry's, 32 BSs, and around 20 frigs/cruisers.
We managed to kill the entire room without a single loss.
However the gate is locked and to unlock it, either we have to get some tag or we kill 1 structure that is called "gate lock".
However when we shoot at this structure, a "mini" DDD goes off and all ship bellow BS get's insta-pop'ed.
We managed to kill it without any losses and warp to the second room.
When we get there, several cruise sentry's, and a sansha battlestation are there.
around 50 BS spawn + support and the slaughter begins.
A solid hour later, all ships are dead.
Now we shoot the sentry's 1 by 1 because we know the station will fire a DDD when we shot at it.
After all sentry's are dead, we move away from the station.
We start shooting the station and the DDD goes off.
We where 140km away and all ships bellow BS still died. Luckily the logistic survived in structure.
BS keep firing on the station and a new spawn of 20 BS comes up.
After another solid hour shooting them + the support we return to the station.
Another DDD. Station shield is boosting and armor repairing. After a few mnts, a 3rd DDD goes off. a 4rd, 5th and 6th DDD.
Several BSs where in deep armor of so many DDDs but no one else died.
Once the station died, we got a escalation. Couple jumps out.
We proceed to this new system and there's around 15 BSs and a 12m True Sansha BS right on entrance.
After this, we received a 3rd escalation.
Same as the one before. and a 4rd escalation and a 5th.
On the 5th there's a station again, and around 32BSs again + support.
A 15M True sansha spawns and dies. Loot was medium to average.
We receive the final escalation.
The provisional HQ.
This is where hell broke lose.
Instead of words, ill let pictures do the talking.

This plex boss drops centum x-type stuff.
However on this "run" we only had a true sansha tag and t1 crap.
We lost a total of 5 ishtars to the DDDs and 1 to the final boss.
The final room we killed around 110 BSs and countless cruisers.

We did this plex before, this is how we knew about the DDDs.
Here's a picture from that previous run:

Gate locks always DD, surprised you didn't know that. The station DDs if a new person is attacking it, so what you need to do is get one person to start shooting, rep everyone up after the dd, get next person to start shooting, rep everyone after the dd etc till everyone is shooting. Otherwise it DDs fast and kills u (think it stops after 5 dds tho) Also the DDD are explosive damage, so if u r tanking em/therm for sanshas they are fairly horrible. Also DD are grid wide so being 140k away doesn't help. I never get an escalation when i do it, no loot whatsoever.
It's not grid wide.
On the 1st escalation to unlock the gate, the DDD have 90km range. we move to 100km and we are safe.
However the station DDD have 160km range. we had 1 ishtar on the first station DDD at 164km out and she did not get any damage. all others closer (me included) pop'ed.
But that "new ddd" for every new shooter i didnt knew.

8 t2 mega pulse , 4 cap rechargers, 1 large rep, 4 active hardeners 2/2, 1 eanm, 1 heat sink. Lvl 5 in everything. Dominix setup to run 3 remote large reps, also has its own tank. max skills for everything + drones for extra damage. Does take some skill to do when dual boxing and knowledge of all the plexs in your region, but been able to dual box every site except 10/10.
The abbadon can solo most plexs if u do it right , domi just speeds things up while giving some security.
well each one as his idea ofc.
Mine is around ishtars. i didn't find a plex yet i cant solo in this ship. This include 10/10
- less sig radius than a BS
- more top speed with AB than a BS
- can run rual rep + ab forever (no cap issues)
- sport resists from 88 to 94%
- superb DPS with drones
- full t2 fitting. no officer/faction. makes it cheaper too

Well i used to run alot of guristas plexes when i lived in cloud ring.
My ishtar never let me down.
Just 1x thermal 1x (or 2x EM) or 1x thermal 2x eanm and ur golden.
my setup atm for blood/sansha atm is:
high: 1x cloak t1 (less cpu) + 1x small remote armor repper (drones love you more) + wharever you wish
med: 1x 10mnAB t2, 1x medium peroxide 3x cap recharger t2
low: 2x med armor reppers t2, 1x thermal 2x EM hardeners
rigs: 2x CCC t1
perma run both reppers + the 3 hardeners + ab forever.

perma run both reppers + the 3 hardeners + ab forever.
highs: cloak, rr, salvager?
mid: ab, 3x cap recharge, large cap battery
low: 2x mar, 3x hardeners
rigs: armor rep rigs.
tanks even beter and is cap stable, can fit a medium cap injector insted of a cap recharger to be neut safe
altho ur setup looks interesting, my eft (verion 2.8) says your setup is not cap stable while running 2x reps and ab + hardeners, also i cant live without a cloak, since it does not fit cpu wize.
and i do have energy upgrades 5 and awu5 and cap skills on 5 etc etc
