Ghost Sites: Difference between revisions

Line 109:

In order to hack the containers as quickly as possible, the following mid-slot modules are needed:

* Microwarpdrive (to fly as quickly as possible between containers)

* Cargo Scanner (to scan the containers and identify the ones with the most valuable loot)

* Data or Relic Analyzer, to hack the site. Either will work, so use the one you have the best skills for. For ships without a bonus to the hacking minigame (T1 cruisers or certain T3 configurations), it can be good to use T2 versions of these modules to make up the shortfall and increase your chances of completing the hacking minigame.

* a Cargo Scanner is not recommended because of the limited engagement time. You do not want to waste precious time cherry-picking.

Armor-tanked ships are recommended over shield-tanked ships, as when the three mid-slot items listed above are installed, there is generally little room left to fit a good shield tank in the midslots. The Stratios or a Strategic Cruiser are excellent for running Ghost Sites, but these ships are very expensive and make for juicy targets during wartime. T1 exploration frigates or covert ops frigates are not recommended for running Ghost Sites, as while these ships are fast and make for excellent hackers, they tend to be too fragile to survive the explosion and/or the rats in Ghost Sites.
