Entering through wormhole instead of filament has multiple benefits: No fleet size limit and no need to wait timers. The problem is that finding Pochven connections will require more work.

Rogue Drones are the weakest faction in Pochven. They are easy to kill and kive minimal standing gains. | |||
If you have 0.00 standing (or close to it) with EDENCOM and Triglavians then Rogue Drones are good target for you. If you never lost any standing with Triglavians or EDENCOM then just a single drone kill is enough to make both factions neutral to you. | |||
The standing gain from them is miniscule so gaining significant standings with them is not practical. | |||

You can find Sleepers on [[Torpid Sleeper Hive]] combat anomalies, wormholes leading to wormhole space and as randomly roaming fleets in systems with wormhole space wormhole. | |||
With a small fleet you should be able to take on the Sleepers on [[Torpid Sleeper Hive]] combat anomalies. If you have big and strong fleet you can engage Sleepers on wormholes leading to Anoikis. But be prepared for big fight as the wormhole may spawn very large number of hostile rats and even Drifters with doomsdays. | |||

Arataka Research Consortium has done research on how to kill Drifters in Pochven. Their method uses afterburner fitted Scimitar to dodge the doomsday.
