General Advice and Information
What Are DED Sites?
DED sites are advanced ratting sites that can either be scanned down with Core Scanner Probes, or gotten through escalations of normal combat sites. They consist of several rooms separated by acceleration gates which only allow certain classes of ship to enter depending on the site. Each room contains a very high number of rats, possibly along with sentry towers, EWAR towers, boss structures, overseer rats, or any combination of the previous.
How Difficult are DED Sites to Run?
Difficulty varies on a per-site basis, but the ones found in Nullsec generally require one or more ships with a powerful active tank (Greater than 1000 EHP/s), along with decent damage output (Greater than 300 dps) and application. This makes Tech 3 Cruisers and Rattlesnakes the ships of choice to run them. Some specific fittings can be found at the bottom of this page, and any specific damage requirements can be found on a per-site basis below.
What Kind of Loot do DED Sites Drop?
This heavily varies, but all DED sites have the potential to drop one or more type of Deadspace Module and Faction Module. Some sites can also drop Pirate Faction Ship Blueprint Copies. In addition, all sites have a 100% chance of dropping a single Overseer's Personal Effects, which can be sold to CONCORD for a set price.
Selling Escalations
If you're not comfortable running DEDs, you can also sell the sites for a decent amount if ISK. Here's a video guide:

DED Running Fits
Below you can find some tried and tested fits for running different kinds of DED Sites.
Maruaders
The Golem is a versatile ship capable of handling most DED sites. This variant is designed for Blood Raider space, but may be repurposed for other pirate factions with a resistance module refit.
Switch between the MJD and MWD depending on the site. X-Type MWDs have no capacitor penalty, allowing you to maintain the integrity of your tank.

Faction Battleships
While lacking the tank and firepower of a Marauder, the Rattlesnake should still hold up in pretty much all DED sites. This variant is designed for Blood Raider space, but may be repurposed for other pirate factions with a resistance module and rig refit.
Most effective when using Sentries at ranges between 40 and 80km. Traditional heavies will function against pretty much anything except frigates. Switch between the MJD and MWD depending on the site. X-Type MWDs have no capacitor penalty, allowing you to maintain the integrity of your tank.
