The key to a successful, and profitable, Vulfpeck is being in the right place at the right time and that means being in a Wolf Rayet wormhole with lots of Sleeper sites. Wolf Rayet wormholes provide massive bonuses to small weapons damage and armor buffer. This transforms destroyers (more specifically, Confessors) into unstoppable combat beasts with a cruiser-class armor tank, battleship-class damage, and shuttle-class signature size!

Whilst the Confessor is massively boosted by the Wolf Rayet wormhole effect, alone the Confessors are still unable to combat the Sleeper menace in the more lucrative higher class wormholes. This is where the fleet's Logistics wing steps in to provide Remote Armor Repair and Capacitor Transfer, keeping the damage wing alive whilst also mitigating the Sleepers' energy nuetralizers. A Vulfpeck Logistics wing typically consists of 3 Logistics Cruisers: T1 Augorors, T2 Guardians or a mix of both.
Money is made by salvaging each site with a highly specialized salvaging ship. Extra money can be added to fleets by harvesting gas sites; provided there is good gas to be found.
