Yes. Now going covert cloak would sort of make sense, but the threat is that BLOPS obsolete everything as covert gank boats. This could be offset with poor maneuverability: getting decloaked at gates, slow on the tackle.

Another obvious role would be a high dps covert ship with no ewar - kind of a black ops titan.

The fact that they take half a minute to lock anything may help with that.

Giving BLOPS a covert ops cloak might make it too easy to move around cloaky gangs. (Start with a group of BLOBS that travel with the gang until it's their turn to bridge. Leave one behind at every intermediate system.) So I don't think that'll happen.

Re-iterated guess on black ops:

All ships approx. 700dps on the standard gank config
All ships covert cloaky
All ships weak on tank

• minmatar target painter bonused
• caldari stronger ecm strenght
• amarr bonused neut range
• gallente bonused sensor damps

Alternatively:
• gallente long point range bonus (officer points :)
• minmatar long webs (officer webs :)


I think this is a decent Idea. I would actually get a Black Ops BS if this was the case instead of speeding around in a T3. I could see the use in a Super stealthy Drone flinging Sensor damp Potato.

Perhaps increasing the time it takes them to also align after jumping a gate. But I would like to see them more in an ewar role along with logistics perhaps the ability to refit at them.

Wouldn't be any more OP or easy than it is with titans even when those also jump in to enemy territory (happens more often you can think of)

The 125% useless speed bonus when cloak should just be scrap and give BLOPs the covert cloak. Larger fuel bay and less consumption for bridging, eventually let it bridge conventional ships but at higher fuel cost and at shorter distances.

This couldn't be bad for pvp, destruction, chaos and all mighty good things that make eve so good.

I saw a Sin once.. it dropped from a freighter kill in lowsec. I hope to see a live one on the field in my lifetime.
