Just thought I'd share this killmail with the residents of GD. Interesting to note that this was in the vicinity of an incursoin that's taking place in Sinq Laison. Another thing that made me laugh about this are the two Wyvern kills, each of which are half the ISK lost of the Vindi kill.

PvE of some sort is my guess.

Sad part is, it's really well over 35bil.. That estimate is a lowball if you check the prices of the officer mods..

None of those fits remotely looks like an Incursion fit

But even a full T2 tank is overkill for missioning and permatanking is bad for your efficiency. So that's basicly a bad missioning ship, that just costs a fortune.

At the risk of derailing this thread, anyone without a solid tank has to warp out of L4s so often it's bad for efficiency.

And it's not like it takes obscene amounts of DPS to kill things fast in L4s, anyway.

I can get enough tank to tank ANY mission with just a Gistii X-Type X-Large Shield booster, 3 CCC rigs and 2 capacitor flux coils (cap stable). (And faction specific hardeners, blah blah blah).

Even before I had the Gistii booster, I could get through any mission with a gank-tank by not triggering spawns until I was ready.

Somebody should tell that Vindicator pilot that a Fury Cruise Raven does more DPS than his ship did.

You're not going to convince me it doesn't take lots of warping out. Eventually the worst case scenario will happen, and you'll be scrammed when you usually warp out, and boom.

I'm just speaking from my own experience, doing enough L4s to get 9.90 Minmatar standings, and 8.90 Gallente. Had plenty of time to try different things. Not going to insist you do things the way i've found is best, but i would encourage you to experiment instead of just doing the same thing all the time.
