Yea and my favorite ship hands down is the Ishtar. Better DPS in a no ammo config. Can fit all the modules you need. The only thing it doesn't have is the scanning bonus, which has never really hurt me that much.

I've found the buffed Navy Vexor to be incredibly competent. You don't need T2 resist for a 4/10, and the tracking bonus is better than the drone bay bonus on the Ishtar. That being said, I only do GSO's in high sec so I don't know if it would be worse in other 4/10s. I use an MWD to have a better chance at competing with other explorers, so I can easily return my sentries and grab the loot with the all the aggro in the second room and warp out with like 3/4 armor left.

I'll probably just use the Navy Vexor until the Ishtar is looked at, since I'm pretty sure you can get more DPS out of it, and tank isn't really an issue. (in high sec GSO's anyway, like I said, no experience elsewhere)

disallowing a cruiser in sites designed for cruiser and battlecruisers... wow....

doesnt even solve the freaking issue....

HAC's will just do the same thing as T3's used to do....

only "problem" it cant really scan by itself very well unless you have good skills so alot of people will simple use an alt?

the arguement just go to low is invalid.... stated 100000 times

if i wanna pvp, i'll go pvp in low in a ship i can afford to lose and which doenst cost me x days of training....

and all you pro's out there who say:" only noobs lose t3's in low" good for you... some of us arnt hardcore low sec players yet and some of us might never be....

as alot of people suggested jsut change the damn site.... take the spawn trigger for the "loot pinata" the last normal rat in the site or a random rat....

i admit that i used to blitz then but if i was forced to clear the entire site i would bring my alt along to salvage it since that would be a minor time sink with some reward.... instead of being toally not worth it...

I`v agree if it removed ONLY from 3/10, but return it to 4/10!
some BC and their T2 versions can bring MORE DPS then T3! And for logic- they have more mass to bypass the gate.
Command ships has more tank and damage. And with their perfect skills has no matter bonus to probe strength.

or, somebody say an idea - Make T2 exploration cruiser

i have a sacriledge on my mind but requires somewhat high scanning skills but it has a solid tank and the same dps as a drake -_- which is sad....

but u can also just scan with an alt which im pretty much planning to do if the sacrilege proves to have too low scan str...

only problem with the sacriledge is the short range on the assault missiles...
