Frontier Daze #38

 Dad,

Hard out; doing lowsec combat sites with slow-tracking guns and no drones is a recipe for a carked ship. I was making flat out in a Thrasher, ran a heap of sites in highsec, and then decided to try in lowsec. Found a Drone Surveillance site, and started banging away with the 720MM at all the launchers that spawned, shield was about 30% at the end of that mare, but then the next few waves were a piece of piss. Until. There's always an until lurking in the shadows of a good time.

Until a wave with the elite drones with webs and scrams showed up. I managed to cark one of the three before they got to me, but once under my guns, it was all over. An artillery Thrasher's a fun boat, until..

So, gutted a bit that she foundered the way she did, but it's not like I lost a Tactical Cruiser stupidly. I guess missiles would be a better choice, as munted application is better than no application at all, but the light-missile Talwar takes forever to clear sites, and is a bit damage-locked to Explosive missiles.

Speaking of wardeccing ratbags, did you see the ping today? Have fun with that, as I know you'll be flat out to go munt their HQ. We'll see what their play will be, either to defend, crawfish, or batphone a bigger bunch of ratbags. Got popcorn handy?

Yours,

Wai
