What is the current state of moving a bowhead through HS? Is there a general isk threshold to stay under?

Is there a better fit than this one:

[Bowhead, Hull Tank]
Damage Control II
Reinforced Bulkheads II
Reinforced Bulkheads II

Adaptive Invulnerability Field II
Limited Adaptive Invulnerability Field I
500MN Cold-Gas Enduring Microwarpdrive

Capital Transverse Bulkhead I
Capital Transverse Bulkhead I
Capital Transverse Bulkhead I

~430K EHP


I checked zkillboard and most ganks are using cargohold mods or rigs.

I found one zkillboard entry from 3/13/16 for Micodin using the above fit that only showed 34K total damage -- how is that possible? Was it a self destruct?

Weird things happen to HPs shown on KMs when ships change systems during a fight. It is also possible he undocked it without repairing. It also could just be a CREST API bug. Not sure what happens with regards to KMs during SD, but that also seems plausible.

As with freighters, if you are going to put high value items in them, it is foolish to move them without some support, at the very least a webbing alt.

There is no threshold.

Kill mails don't take into account the resist profiles, they just count raw hp, not ehp.

E: having said that, it's still absurdly low...

but what would I know, I'm just a salvager

He probably got to a gate, jumped, and was caught on the other side.
