Astero PVE Fitting Needed

Post by SH4D0WT1G3R »

Can any of you recommend a reliable ASTERO WH Exploration fitting...I can't seem to defeat the bots at guarded Relic and Data sites?

Looking at your losses, you seem to be going to the wrong data/relic sites for explorer loot. The ones where you lost the Astero were sleeper combat sites. Sleeper Combat sites in low class wormholes generally have poor data/relic loot value than pirate sites and you generally clear the NPCs using destroyer class ships and above depending on the class of the wormhole. An Astero is not the right ship to clear Sleeper rats.

If you only want exploration loot (from hacking cans) you really want to stick to Pirate Faction data/relic sites. These sites have no NPCs that shoot you and carry the name of one of the pirate factions:
  • Angel
  • Blood Raider
  • Guristas
  • Sansha
  • Serpentis
Please read this.

Edit: Be careful about Ghost Sites. These have the word Covert in them and will blow up your Astero if you fail a hack or spend too long on the site. Read this as well to avoid unnecessary loss.
