Ode to Santo

Santo Trafficante is a legend. I am nowhere near his level of evil expertise at podding and farming pod goo. However the Phoebe expansion will see Nullsec Data and Relic sites put into Class 1 through Class 3 wormholes. This will see an influx - hopefully - of Herons, Imicii and Magnates with warp stabs, cloaks and nanos who will book it the moment anything decloaks. Let's be honest, 5 seconds plus lock time is far too long to get a point on anything with a 3s or less align time. I've had success with dual-point Vigils in lowsec, but I have always wanted to use a smartbombing Proteus like Santo to farm pods as well as these annoying little fucks raiding Data and Radars.

Today's maiden voyage of the Dick Virus saw me trace an imicus to the N766 in its wormhole, whereupon i figured he'd warp at 100, and duly so did I. I de-cloaked, ran the bombs and as if by magic a wreck and then a pod appeared.

Bueno!

Fit below. Of course, faction (let alone officer) bombs are best but....700M, not in wormholes mate.

  1. I think that manticore or nemesis with dual scram and sensor booster would work like a charm, but smartbombing them to hell surely is much more fun.
