Please add covert cyno support to the stratios to be inline with other covertcloack ship.
Sorry if this subject duplicated.

What is this "covertcloack" you speak of?

i'd guess any ship with the ability to fit a Covert Ops Cloaking Device II

all those ships were given the ability to fit and use a covert cyno generator not long ago, imao it would be consistent with their role

I disagree. It's role isn't as a scout for covert ops fleets. It's role is an exploration ship. One of the things that points towards it's role not actually being a true covert ops role is the fact it doesn't get the cloak cool down reduction role bonus.

If ship have covert ops cloaking device support then it should get other covert ops devices support. Why not? It will be nice pair with SIN for exploration nd other PVE for example.

Because then people would dump flying their current sneaky-sneaky ships and dive into that.

Every ship has some sort of weakness; the Stratios' is that it doesn't have the military grade hardware to use the Covert Ops Cloaking Device.

Which is not what anybody would use it for, and you know it.

The stratios with the cooldown reduction would be overpowered.
Already now probably is; and largely overlap "true" recons.
For a fraction of skill requirements.
