Sansha Sanctum

I found few nice screenshots in my eve capture directory, but hell I couldnt remember what was the name of that site. But I was lucky enough to have a screenshot with scan results :D

But lets come to main story.
Initial spawn:



After killing all NPC in first wave, next came:



Third wave:


Fourth wave:


This last wave was quite more difficult. My Raven couldnt tank whole room then, but dual LAR Domi with resistances EM 89%, Therm 84%, with Large Cap Injector(800), and medium remote repped by Raven was more than enough. Sansha's dps tanked over 1000. This is my way of tanking and it works fine for me. But I believe Sansha Sanctum is soloable in well tanked BS, or Command ship. (even easier in Nightmare or Marauder). You just need enough dps to break Tyrant's tank (187, my estimate).

Unfortunately no faction spawn in the end. Hope next time :D

Central Sansha Sparking Transmitter

Today scanning 7h after DT gave me that nice result:



When I warped to the site at 100km with cloaked covops, I got such welcome message:



There were 12 light and heavy missile towers, not much damage. Also 3 Sansha frigates. I sent covops to station and took Raven. When I shot the frigates, there another spawn appeared:
2 Elite cruisers (Loyal Sansha)
3 Cruisers
6 Frigates

I shot them all and started to hack the cans:
1 Sansha Databank
2 Sansha Mainframe
2 Sansha Com Tower

After hacking into 2 cans, 3 frigates spawned, and I couldnt open them until they were killed. Opening these cans took me 5-10 min each so I had to be patient.
Here is what I got from cans:



loot prize:
Amarr Encryption Methods skillbook: 4-5M
Classic Doctrine amarr decryptor: 10-14M
Total Datacores: 14-16M

In my opinion that site was soloable in Battlecruiser in 1,5h easily. But first time you never know :D

Pristine Sansha Abandoned Colony: try no. 2

I was scanning twice the same system today. First time I found only grav site, but 2 hours later I found also magnetometric site, and it was Pristine Sansha Abandoned Colony. Me and my Alt: Raven and tanked Dominix, fleet warped to the site. I took less than hour to clear the initial spawn and the second wave. In total more than 10 Drone BS, around 20 cruisers and like 20 frigates. I had to warp out few times, Raven was tanking better than Dominix, because I fitted Domi to tank Sansha, not Drones. But finally all NPCs were dead.

There were 6 cans to be salvaged:
-2 Sansha Ship Hulks;
-3 Sansha Ship Remains;
-1 Sansha Ship Ruins;

Here is my loot:


Yummy salvage T2, worth more than 100m :D
Minerals to refine from alloys around 10m :)
Fun: priceless :P

Doing things in Duel

Eve-Online is that kind of game, in which having 2 accounts is very profitable and give really much more fun and possibilities.

Well-known examples:
Miner + Hauler
Ratter/Missioner + Salvaging Looter/Logistic
Tanker + Damage Dealer

Raven isn't good tanker (Sansha does damage EM/Thermal) nor damage dealer (missiles ...)

Few days ago Dominix surprised quite much. My Alt is Gallente and has many skill in Drones but none in Large Hybrid Weapons, so Domi was first natural choice. I tried a fit:

[Dominix, Uber Tank]
N-Type EM Hardener I
N-Type EM Hardener I
N-Type Thermic Hardener I
N-Type Thermic Hardener I
N-Type Thermic Hardener I
Damage Control II
Large Armor Repairer II

It gives almost 600 dps tankable. Quite nice, comparing to Raven.

Pristine Sansha Abandoned Colony

Well, this time is a bitter-sweet story ;)

After scanning 4 systems, I found 2 signals. It was quite late at night, but I decided to pinpoint one of them. The chosen one has quite a weak signal so it took me about 10 mins to get the type. It turned to be Magneto site :D :D my first, and I was expecting great loot. I warped to it with Covops, and immediately warped to me with Alt in pod at 10km. Rats never shoot to pods. There were 5 cans for hacking. But, hell, also there were so many rats that I didn't believe I could tank them with my Alt's Dominix (Resistance EM/Thermal: 88%/89%, LAR II, EFT says its 660 dps tank). I decided to give up.

I came next day, and rats were gone. Cans either. :( Someone have had cleared the room during the night. Or the site just despawned. Rather the second option. But I alreade prepared a fit for Domi with 1000 dps Sansha tankable :D

Wish me good luck for next time o/

Sansha Haven

This anomaly was harder than Sansha Hub. I found it with covops and warped to it in cloak. Here is initial spawn:
2x Centum Loyal Fiend
2x Centior Monster
6x Centus Overlord
2x Factory Defence Battery.
My Alt came in tanked Dominix, and I immediately warped with covops to take Raven. Domi was full of cap batteries 800, to be able to run its tank for long. I released sentry drones to get aggro, and scoop them to save them. There were 4 spawns, hitting quite strong. But I was able to keep Domi alive and draw dps with safe Raven. It took me 75 mins to kill all. Net time I should bring more dps, because cruise missiles and 5 sentry drones t1 is not what satisfied me.

No faction spawn in the end, but I am proud I finished this site :)

Sansha Hub

I scanned 3 systems with my covops, and I found cosmic anomaly named Sansha Hub. I warped to it cloaked, and took a look around. There were:

To keep this site alive I warped in pod with my Alt.
I was not sure if I can tank this room with my Raven, so stayed with Alt's pod all the time there. Once I warped with Raven at 70km, I started to spread damage, align to planet and move slowly (117m/s) away from the spawn, because I was not sure if I can tank it, and be ready to warp off if needed. Fortunately these Overlords were moving as slow as me, and I was far behind their optimal, so they were "barely scratching" me. And I could easily keep the distance. As soon bses are killed, I shoted towers and then small stuff using also Target Painter and medium drones.

It turned out that initial spawn was the hardest. Next 3 waves came with 3 bses and up to 10 support (frigates, cruisers and their elite versions).

In the end I wasn't enough lucky today and True Sansha didn't appear.
