.... wut


you can fit a blops for 1.2b easy


as for your claim that it is large groups that make use of these that's something you have backwards

its the small groups that have to use these to make up for not having enough pilots for bombers and recons


Um...No?

You need like 6-7 bombers to absolutely level most blopsable targets quickly. They are extremely practical and efficient. I would never consider using blops for most of the work I do - they are just plain bad. They lock slow, warp slow, do not do much damage, bad fuel efficiency, align slow....they are just plain bad overall. Groups that use more don't really need that much fire-power, rather, its laudable they want to have so many participate.

Blops become practical when you can field like 50 of them with logi legions - then they are the best choice as you have the numbers and scale to actually take more of a fight and less than a gank. They have a niche use of people that like to style on solo pvpers or very small gangs, but this is more a style thing and less a practical thing.



lol you do know there are groups that can barely field 4 pilots right? and thats when you have alts out for cynos. these ships are very powerful even in small numbers. a widow pared with an arazu is a nightmare the sin doesn't even need to worry about lock times. We use the redeemer as bait and a snaked panther is great surprise tackle.
