A CovOps with eccm in a WolfRayet c5+ is pretty much unscannable.
As for astrometrics 5, it enables you to take the T2 probelauncher, better than the t1, not as good as the sisters, but also way cheaper than the sisters.
Also you need it for opening jumpportals (blops got more jumprange now) |

I also have seen people say the sensor comp skills help make you harder to scan down. But nothing about the description or stats of these skills suggests they have any effect on this. Is there some stealth stat that is being buffed here that is not visible anywhere in game?
The scan forumula includes your sensor strenght as a factor, along with your ship sig.
Wolf Rayet reduces your sig, Eccm increases you sensor strenght (both factors make it hader to scan you down).
Thats the reason why miners with mining drones used to be dead meat in WHs until CCP decided to let Team EVE is for everyone "improve" all the mechanics.
While the barges were big they also had at least some sensor strenght, for example a hulk with 3 ECCM was very hard to scan down, in a WR you were more likely to get the core site before finding that hulk. If that hulk would have used mining drones you would have gotten it a lot faster (probably on 8 or 4 AU) as the mining drones have a small sig (25m or so) but only a sensor strenght of 1. So the sensor strenght to sig ratio of the drones most likely got your Hulk killed :) (You would have scanned the drones down instead of the Hulk)
Covert ops have a small sig and for a frig a rather high sensor strengh, improve that by one or two ECCM and i would think even a fully skilled scanning char with virtue set wouldnt be able to scan you down, that was before the introduction of the new scanning modules though. |

But where is the fun, without Lolcal you have to reproduce the rage that forces everyone in 0.0 to log of once you enter a system somehow. |
