Or 3 frigates with scramblers on them.
0.0 bubbles dont allow warp core stabs to work at all.
Scripted HIC's seem to be the only way you can catch ships in low sec now.
The thing is, warpcore stabs are killing solo/very small gang PVP in low sec like this. People go to a PVP zone only to stick warp core stabs on their frigates/dessies to avoid any PVP.
A Navy Comet with four warp core stabilizers? Well, if he is that eager to avoid combat at any cost, let him be.
How droll. |

With four warp core stabilizers, a person with otherwise perfect skills in a Navy Comet has a targeting range of 10.9km and requires over 10 seconds to lock onto a standard frigate. Further more, warp core stabilizers are actually pretty CPU intensive, and use at the least 24 CPU each (Tech 2 warp core stabilizers use 35 CPU each). Considering that four of them would 96 CPU, which is more than half of the Navy Comet's CPU (base CPU +25% for Electronics V), and most medium slot items use a large amount of CPU as well, they would be so bad at PVP for their cost that they should no longer be considered a PVP ship.
