Hello ladies and gentlemen,

I am relatively new to the whole Incursion idea. Been busy with real live things. But I am currently wanting to join Incursion sites with my Oneiros. I am curious how often logistics ships are used these days.
I have maxed out logistics skill (only one not level 5 and being 4) are the armor rigging skill and remote hull repair. Lol

Thank you in advance for any information and advice.

Short of the lowest level sites (which are 100% worthless and can be run solo in damn near anything) all incursion fleets NEED logistics ships. You would have to be INSANE to run vanguards or higher without the use of logis.
*cough*


Anyway, with logi 5 you can find fleets fairly easily, though the oneiros is usually less sought after than the basilisk and guardian (since the incursion rats tend to neut). That said, you should have no problem finding fleets in an onei.

This.

I agree that an Onei is generally less desired than the other Logis, but it should still be able to get in plenty often, especially once you know a few FCs and they know you.

Logi´s are definately in a good spot for incursions.
in pretty much every vanguard or Assault i have been we had at least 1-2 Oni´s with us.
Their tracking links make them quite handy for the DPS, too

If you have a Basilisk or a Scimitar you're more than welcome to help my corp blitz incursions. We're in the Minmatar incursion at the moment. Send me an evemail in-game!

Incursions came out when I was inactive so they're a new concept to me too. What's to stop a couple people from griefing and purposely trying to get people blown up? Or are the rewards so high that it's not really an issue?

Nothing's to stop them, It will happen and relatively frequently in public groups.
As always the same with EVE - trust no one. Try to fly with friends and use restricted channels so theres less chances of griefers.

I figured as much. Glad I asked first just to be sure. Thanks!

There's nothing to stop them from griefing, other than people who are careful to watch for the signs. If you have disabled the aggression warning popup, make sure you re-enable it in the settings when you do incursions.. Also, there are black lists and web sites that keep track of pilots who do those dastardly deeds...

The guy just above you is a huge griefer as I understand.
