How much do I suffer by sacrificing the Faction gyros for Gyro II's, and more so dropping the grade of the disruptor and invulnerability field to drop the price? Something like this which EFT says is 562M.
EHP on this is 82,328. The 20k EHP is a huge difference, what kind of impact is that in W-space?

Any other suggestions to do a more affordable version?

Cloaky Loki really lacks dps to be an efficient solo hunter, the tank doesn't matter that much as ideally you'll only pick targets you know you can kill. Trying to kill anom-running ships can prove very difficult because they usually have quite significant tanks, and the sleepers might switch to you which will ruin your plans, usually you wait till they're done with the anoms and kill the salvage boat. Other targets would be things like Industrials doing P.I. and mining ships, theres really not much else you can take on with a cloaky Loki in WHs. That being said I'd use the second fit because tank doesn't matter that much, but I would keep the faction gyros to squeeze out as much dps as possible.

Thanks for the feedback. Would it be better to go with drones on a cloaky? Is that even possible?

Carry a depot and before you gank refit to tactical targeting network sub and med neut in place of the probe launcher. 500 heated dps against resist holes and med neut should be enough to slay a carebear in time. When you're in warp to the bear, decloak when you get about a million meters away so when you land you are able to lock right away. It also goes ~2800 with heat and zor's so you should be able to escape most sour situations assuming you're not scrammed. You also have nearly 1k dps tank with pill and a base of 38k ehp which means roughly 80k ehp after ASB is used up.
