The cloaking device would work for keres too! it will gain surprise effect like a ninja tackler and will be less vulnerable while entering combat... totally worth it! i would fit one in my keres...



Entering combat is not a much of an issue as actually being useful and survivable once the combat starts, what about when you are attacked by drones of that same target that you just damped, or as it usually happens rest of fleet makes your EA frigate the first primary target, what would your clocking device do then?

It would add another 5 mil isk tag on your ship loss, a ship that is overpriced as it is, do you want to pay 35 mil for fitted keres?

If buffs are to come for this ship class they should actually be useful for all 4 ships.

True, but.
#1- If you dump from 30Km before the target launch you the drones, it doesn't matter if they are aggressive or not, you will out range their lock and you will not have drone issues. I already tried it...

#2- Keres works like a long range tackler, and you can cycle the dumps and keep hi-speed tank for your protection against fleets... I already survived on an outnumber fleet combat using this...and they tryed to target me allot...

#3- My biggest difficult is to aproach a target and pin it down without beeing detected... so the target almost aways warp out before i reach him... With a cloak keres would be an awesome ship for SB roamings...

#4- It works fine for Kitsune too

#5- The other 2 eaf could use it too, but also need more buffs...
