As a recent returnee, I'm afraid I have to ask (as searching hasn't pointed me in the right direction.. Sad )....

Attributes listings don't show 'Jump Harmonics 2', so - can the Stratios and Astero also use a Covert Cyno and be bridged; as all the other Covert Cloak users can?

I was also wodnering why the Nestor isn't a Black Ops ship? Having use of a Covert Cloak would have been a bit too muchTwisted - but I'm surprised it wasn't classified (and usable) as a Black Ops; given the abilities of the other pair of SOE ships.

Yes the Strat and Astero can be Bridged by a BLOP's

Dont even know anyone that uses a nestor lol. But yes, it was deemed too powerful with a Cov-ops cloak.... Also it wouldnt be fair on black ops Blink

People have been wondering what the nestor is supposed to be good at for quite some time, solutions still not found.

Thank you both.

I must admit, I don't see that the Nestor is really that 'powerful' (without a Covert cloak, certainly), and it could indeed make a suitable support ship for BLOPS work - certainly it would be 'sensible' (an EVE word?Evil) expectation given the SOE ships. I wonder why?????What?

Sorry, not my point. Nestor as a 'normal' (Sister's special) BLOPS....
