Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 535	Posted - 2015.11.09 09:29:41 - [1] - Quote I've been getting a lot of positive feedback for the little guide I wrote Everything you wanted to know about Blitzing and wanted to have a place where I can put feedback so i don't get the same PMs (not that I mind! ) Some points that are not in the guide. 1. Team Burner: Jaguar and Wrecking hits The Team Burner Jaguar has this habit of every few sites hitting the player orbiting at around 25-26km with a 900+ damage 'wrecking' hit. I've had this happen to me a lot of times and so far I've been lucky in that it hasn't happened twice in the same site. Wrecking hits are very rare when so far outside of falloff but once they roll a 'hit' it completely disregards range and transversal and does I believe 4x the damage. Two hits in a row will nuke the garmur. You have two choices, warp out of the pocket, repair and come back or try your luck. So far I've tried my luck every time and nothing bad happened yet but it's up to each individual player. 2. Trouble maintaining agent standin I'll elaborate a bit more on this as although the basics are in the guide, some people are having trouble maintaining standings. The most important is obviously that you have Social V. Second to that is that you are able to do nearly all of the burner missions. The burner missions are an integral part of keeping not only your standing up but also your isk/h as they are the most profitable. Currently the only burner mission that should be skipped is Gurista Base. Maybe Blood Base but if you have maxed missile support/cal cruiser skills then it's payout should be on par or better than the best of the lv4 blitz missions. Part of the above is missioning in the right system. Some systems send you to LS a lot for burners and you might skip some of them. Lanngisi really is the best of the SOE systems (increased my isk/h by about 75mill) so very much worth the time moving there. If you can't do all the burners yet, here is a list of normal lv4s that can help prop up agent standings. - Rogue slave trader 1 and 2 are easy and pretty quick to run. the 1st one isn't that great for isk/h but the 2nd one is on par with some of the others in the guide. - Blood raider spies is super quick but payout isnt great. still will help with standings. Not sure about Angel spies though. - Right hand of Zazz is decent and fast and has a chance of a nice implant on Zor. Be carefull with the tank on that one one, it can be a bit rough. - Recon 2 can be run with a interceptor/frig with MWD and is quick - Recon 3 is decently quick with the Mach Check eve survival on how to blitz these. 3. Copy of the guide Not that it matters much but not at this time. I had some friends test it and you should be able to copy the fits off the guide and into EFT/Eve. If this is not the case from the above link please let me know asap. It's not a very useful guide if you can't copy and paste the fits. That said you should be able to copy the whole guide as is and paste it into a word doc. I don't mind much just credit me 4. Alternative fits Yes, there are absolutely tons of alternative fits to those in the guide, especially cheaper T2 fits. They can all be found in this thread: Burner thread Huge Kudos to those that made the thread what it is, almost all my fits came from there or evolved from fits I found there. Only the Blood Orthrus is my own special creation Just remember any cheap fits will obviously be slower and the same tactics might not work.

Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 539	Posted - 2015.11.10 13:42:15 - [4] - Quote Very true. Honestly the team burner Garmur is still really, really good with almost no bling on it so long as you have good skills to back it up (cal frig 5 specifically, missile damage/application in general). Oh and I discovered something super derpy last night. I finally got missile bombardment 5 right and I've been having a heck of a time killing the daredevil in my rocket hawk. Specifically it'd almost always take a full clip and sometimes a reload to kill it. Now it seems like what was happening was that I was almost exactly on the edge of my range so some of the shots weren't landing. I never checked for it. Now I'm killing it with at least 12 rockets to spare so a HUGE difference. I'll update my guide to make a note of it tonight and update the op as well.

Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 539	Posted - 2015.11.10 15:51:15 - [5] - Quote http://community.eveonline.com/news/patch-notes/patch-notes-for-parallax Nothing in the patch notes but I can 100% confirm that team burner remote rep got buffed by a huge amount. I am unable to break the tank on the Burner Burst with 265.3 dps cold and the launchers burn out before I can get through the shields. One of two things happened. Stealth nerf or the reintroduction of Drifters today (that share AI with burners) caused the increase in remote rep, probably remote rep chance is set to 100%. Me personally I'm a fan of the saying 'Don't atribute to malice what can be atributed to incompetence' I'll file a bug report and see what happens. For now the ECM garmur is probably the only thing that will work. A guide (Google Doc) to Hi-Sec blitzing and breaking the 200mill ISK/H barrier

Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 541	Posted - 2015.11.10 22:59:27 - [7] - Quote So I played around with some fits and I think I got a fit together that might be better* than what I was using. It requires ECM 4 at least (probably) and really good projection skills though, like all V or IV and implants.

Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 542	Posted - 2015.11.11 13:46:10 - [8] - Quote Hi Lebowski! The change is exclusive (as far as I've been able to test) to TEAM burners, specifically, the LOGI REPAIR RATE. Focus on this exclusively. The BURNER rat as far as I can tell has had no change to it. I tested with an ECM fit and the burner rat goes down as fast as always with no logi supporting it. I don't think it's the ship/fit as people using Hawks and Harpies have experienced the same issue. Before the patch, the fit below was able to 'brute force' through a single logi's reps being applied to another logi even while NOT overheating. Overheating would decrease the time to kill the logi but was not strictly nessesary. Additionally for two of the team burners (Hawk and Enyo) you only had to kill ONE of the logi. You could then brute force through the surviving logi's reps on the burner itself. The Vengeance and Jaguar team burner I had to kill both logis before the patch to kill the burner rat. This is all before yesterdays patch. Here is the fit: [Garmur, Team Burner Garmur - Bling] Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Caldari Navy Ballistic Control System Missile Guidance Computer II, Missile Range Script Missile Guidance Computer II, Missile Range Script 5MN Y-T8 Compact Microwarpdrive Phased Weapon Navigation Array Generation Extron Polarized Rocket Launcher, Caldari Navy Mjolnir Rocket Polarized Rocket Launcher, Caldari Navy Mjolnir Rocket Polarized Rocket Launcher, Caldari Navy Mjolnir Rocket Small Hydraulic Bay Thrusters II Small Rocket Fuel Cache Partition II Small Warhead Flare Catalyst I My skills are not maxed but really, really close and I have implants as well. AFTER the patch: I tested yesterday and was able to make headway on one of the BURST logi shields with the above fit ONLY while OH. Without OH I was not able to do any damage at all. With OH I was not able to break through the shield before my launchers would burn out. I got to about 3/4 of the way. I then kept firing at it without OH. The shield slowly regenned until I ran out of my initial 150 rocket clip. After reloading the shields were fully repaired. I've had multiple other people test it. everyone confirms the exact same thing. The question is not IF something went wrong, only WHAT. I hope this information will help you find out what changed.

Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 542	Posted - 2015.11.11 13:57:50 - [9] - Quote If it counts for anything my gut feeling is it's something to do with fequency/duration/chance of logi reps rather than the numbers with how MUCH they rep. Might be something to look at. A guide (Google Doc) to Hi-Sec blitzing and breaking the 200mill ISK/H barrier

Well ECM does SEEM to occasionally make the jammed logi retreat out of range. However it is hard to tell if that is actually genuine AI behavior or just coincidence because they are tethering in some fashion as you get further from warp in point. My hunch is AI behaviour becasue its almost always the jammed frigate that runs away first. This is normal and very typical AI behavior actually. I saw it a LOT in wormhole space. We'd jam the last rats in a site to warp the capitals off and they would fly off. It's a guaranteed effect of jamming a rat.

So potentially sticking one ECM on each logi and shooting at the burner may work for team burners. If both jams land, yes. That's the tactic I currently use until they find the bug with team burners or if they decide to buff team burners. an alternative is to put both jams on one logi and burst the other one down.

It's possible that the Barghest might also only be better at some missions while the Machariel is better at others. The small DPS boost coming might tip the scales in certain situations.

Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 605	Posted - 2015.11.22 18:11:02 - [21] - Quote Glad it's helping! The super carrier is the Gurista Base burner. I should probably make it a bit more clear. That is currently the only one I would strongly suggest not running at all. It takes extremely long and is extremely difficult even with bling gear. I have been able to complete it, eventually, with a BC but it took nearly an hour (To be fair I was learning the ins/outs of the mission and testing various things) but I doubt you'd get it down further than maybe 30min if you're lucky. The fighters and fighter-bombers have ridiculously tiny sigs and crazy amounts of HP. They do a LOT of damage and there is 6 waves iirc. You can't OH as the mission is just far too long and the payout, even if it was the max like other burners would make it one of the worst paying lv4 missions currently available in the game. If there's a 'trick' to it other than CCP giving us the finger then we haven't found it yet. In other news, I logged on to the test server and saw that they mirrored the skills and gear. I also got just over 2mill free SP from the last mass test. I used this to get a good set of skills for Heavy missiles to test my RHML Barghest concept. And the results are so far... It might actually work 0.o Pirate invasion Angel is only 30 seconds slower than what I recorded in my Machariel and that's with the Mach using Hail so probably the single best mission in the Mach's favor. Stop the Thief is probably a wash. Better kill time for the Barghest by a tiny amount but slower warp speed by a similarly small amount. Gone Bezerk was nail-bitingly close. I needed 1 more volley and I'd be a whole 30 seconds FASTER than my Mach time. This is because the best ammo available for the Mach in that mission is Barrage (I tested). I have a feeling with the skills I can easily get that extra volley. I have high hopes for Assault - Serpentis and attack of the drones but the random nature of attack of the drones might screw me over. The loss of 50m3 drone bay over the mach really hurts but the extra dps come december on the Barghest has me super excited. This is the skills I tested with: Guided Missile Precision IV Heavy Missile Specialization IV Missile Bombardment V Missile Projection IV Rapid Launch IV Target Navigation Prediction IV Warhead Upgrades V Caldari Battleship IV <- this is going to be the biggest factor after the dps buff, followed by Missile Specialization. Rapid launch is the least useful of the lot. I do not have implants affecting damage so I might start there. A guide (Google Doc) to Hi-Sec blitzing and breaking the 200mill ISK/H barrier
Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 605	Posted - 2015.11.22 21:39:59 - [22] - Quote Doing a quick rough estimate you might be hitting 2mill per minute if you were soloing gurista base. With links you are actually dropping below 60mill per hour. gurista base is absolutely horrendous, especially with that bounty, lowest of all the bases without even the loot blood base gives and taking two to four times as long. At max burner reward and taking only 6 minutes it might be worth running over normal lv4 blitz missions (not even the good ones) but only just. heck it might be as good as blood base, almost :P A guide (Google Doc) to Hi-Sec blitzing and breaking the 200mill ISK/H barrier

It did complete after I killed every single ship but only then. Now that you mentioned it... I can confirm that Gone Berserk is weird on SISI. I followed the eve-survival tip to only kill the right side group ( your guide mentions it too ) but it didn't complete. I had to kill everything to complete the mission. Thanks. I've updated my guide to reflect this. Soon as I can get a beserk on Tranq I'll test and confirm. If so Bug report time (since it's not in any patch notes).

You should be using less than half the cap charges if your dps skills are decent. Most skills are maxed although I had only just trained small autocannon specialization to lvl 1. I'm training it up now. I used about 4 cap charges before I ran out. Looking at the combat log I was doing about 99 actual dps. It looks like initial dps was high but then settled down to about 150 per hit. I don't know if that is low due to distance as I was about 3.5 km from the target. Yea getting specialization up will make a huge difference. You will run out of cap, that's normal, just OH the armor repper and keep feeding it cap charges (Make sure you're cargo is full of navy 400s) and make sure the webber is running. You wont get closer, at most you might get to within 3km. It's very much an endurance burner but the extra dps form the spec to 4 at least will help a lot.

Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 620	Posted - 2015.11.27 11:31:27 - [33] - Quote I've been able to more thoroughly test the Barghest as a credible alternative to the Machariel and it's pretty solid all things considered. The buff changes are live on singularity and with all the mass testing I've been enjoying (The visuals really are absolutely amazing once they fixed most of the driver crashes) I got enough SP to fly an effectively maxed out barghest to test. The buff adds about 100dps to the RHML Barghest in the form of higher volleys so it's a really welcome boost. For the most part the RHML Barghest seem to compete favorably in the following misisons: - Attack of the drones: This can be a bit random as the number of ships spawning is not fixed. Can make good use of a full flight of medium drones - The assault (Serpentis): Very nice for sniping the scramming frigs in the 2nd room (always a pita for the mach) and to hit the ships in the 3rd room as soon as you land - Gone Beserk: It can theoretically finish the mission on a single clip but with the bug/changes to the mission it might get dropped in favor of other missions - Stop the thief: slightly quicker kill time makes up for slightly slower warp speed so either works. - Dread Pirate scarlet: Slightly slower than Mach but not by much. No arty snipe fit possible but for people not running an arty mach the Bagrhest works fine. There are a couple missions where a cruise Barghest would work far better and that is something I am going to test next as I should have T2 cruises now. - Pirate Invasion (Angel): With 6(or was it 7?) BS that needs to be killed it needs at least 2 reloads of RHML making it slightly slower than the Mach although infinitely easier to tank. I think I might get better mileage with the cruise missiles. - Attack of the Drones: Cruises might feature here better than the RHML. - I want to believe in a blockade blitz but with triggers being random (the eve survival guide isn't 100% accurate either) it'd be a bit of a crap shoot from what I've tested so far. That said Cruises (and a MJD) would trump RHML fit. I might revisit certain other missions too, just in case. End of the day the Mach is still the top dog, but it's nice seeing a ship that can keep pace with it in almost all missions. I was never a fan of how the Mach looked so having a ship like the Barghest be a legitimate alternative is great. ps. Anyone got any ideas for the new utility high? A drone link augmentator isn't really useful in any real way, an auto targeting thingy doesn't actually jive with blitzing and I already have a tractor on it. Neut to make it slightly more gank resistant? Although again, with blitzing people have trouble scanning you down before you're done with the site.

Nice work, but you estimating income, to actually make that income you need to include the time of exchanging the lp and going to sell said items on the market..... still an awesome job, but not 200mil p/h This is a common misconception at to how this works but understandable. Generally you blitz for a week or more, maybe even a month. You'd end up with say a mill or three LP. You'd grab your cloaky hauler, rigged with Hyperspacial velocity rigs and fitted with nanos and head on to the closest SOE station near whatever trading hub has the best prices. You grab the launchers/probes/BPCs/etc. and drop them off at the trading hub directly to buy orders. This all should take less than 30min. Warning: Napkin Math ahead! Lets say you spent 20h blitzing this month (Equates to 1.5 to 2mill LP). That means the 30 minutes spent doing your market stuff is only 5% of the the time making your money. Obviously the longer you can go without cashing out the smaller this 'wasted' %. Now personally I average around 225mill to 250mill/h so lets low ball it and go with 225mill/h. Take off 5% of that and we come to 213.75mill/h. Now to head off your 'but he only made 200mill/h'. This is the problem with 1h benchmarks. Not to take anything away from the video or his mission running skills at all (He runs pirate invasion WAY more efficiently than me and I've actually changed how I run it as a result) but 1h benchmarks is not the most accurate. it's heavily susceptible to random spikes, high and low due to loot, missions, etc. I've found 3h runs to be relatively steady in terms of isk/h and this would indicate accuracy. A great loot drop would be evened out as would a bad string of missions. Not getting any team or good agent burners really impacted the run hard. I generally get at least a dozen or so team burners over the 3 hours, sometimes 4 or 6 in a row. But yea, great video regardless.

MWD blows your sig radius way up, especially so on unbonussed ships like T1 and pirate ships. However, speed reduces the damage dealt by missiles. This is why on the approach to the burner worm, so long as have the hardners on and OH and the rep going you'll be fine. The problem is as soon as you reach your target you need to turn off your MWD or you will take full damage from the missiles because you're no longer speed tanking them. Sometimes you'll have outpaced a volley or two and having a couple volleys hit you at once with your MWD on but your ship effectively standing still means you'll go insta pop. Another side affect of trying to keep at range while running an MWD is that you tend to follow at a longer range than you actually set. This is because of your speed with the MWD. It's just how it is. Once you're within scram range of the worm you need to turn your MWD off or you will die and you will not be able to get in a stable following range.

Basically the onyx fit made to work on the Cerb. To give you an idea the Onyx kills a sentinel in slightly less than 1 full load of RLM but takes 3 reloads of Scourge Fury to kill the Ahimu. The Cerb requires even less of 1 full clip for the sentinels (but not enough to kill 2 in one load) but only requires 2 scourge fury reloads. Tank wise it has better enough tank than he Orthrus to not run into any issues and has a way bigger cargo bay than either so you can use an MTU to make up for the lack of a tractor.

In my experience I've found that it's better to just orbit @25km and wait about 10 seconds for all targets to settle into their orbits - then you can just use standard Caldari Navy Mjolnir rockets instead of Mjolnir Javelin. The initial wait is easily offset by the decreased time to kill the Burner Bursts. So the main issue I've found the with Jag when orbiting at 25km is that unless you have really good range skills and an implant, the funky way missile range 'works' means some missiles will get lost to the aether when shooting at the logi since their range is pretty variable. There's also no feedback to the player unless the player specifically combs through the logs. I see this the most clearly on the Serpentis Burner when I run the Hawk. It used to a pretty tought mission but that was because some missiles would just go poof for not reason. This is so that the build, at least for this guide, is a lot more consistent. If just using caldari mjolnir works then bu all means. On a side note I ran the Cerb again and the stupid random ai struck again. They didn't go after the drones and I took a little bit of armor and structure damage. Again though I don't have HAC5 so missing some resists and dps.

I did use to run with the old setup (i.e., with a TP), but just switched to three unscripted MGCs when I got fed up with fiddling with the painter - in terms of damage application, I suspect (but alas can't prove) that there might even be a small increase with a TP-less setup. The MGCs don't require the range scripts, as with skills + the Garmur's bonus + whatever implants you may have, faction rockets range is around 26km, which is more than enough for all the Team Burners (except perhaps the Burst reppers, whose orbits are a little erratic). Running unscripted also has the happy benefit of allowing the MGC's other bonuses to be applied, too! No proper scientific testing done, though :) So one thing you need to remember is that MGCs are exactly like Tracking comps and well like any other module when it comes to stacking penalties. That is to say having 2 or 3 modules give the same (smaller) bonus rather than having 1 or two of them give one (bigger) bonus and another one or two give another (bigger) bonus means you don't lose the effectiveness of those bonuses.

Anize Oramara The Arch Dashing Dashers 772	Posted - 2016.05.03 06:57:41 - [61] - Quote Just a general post as to the why around bling fits and OH for those wondering. OH does two things, it increases tank so you can reduces the tank requirement to then increase the dps and increases DPS so you can decrease the required tank even further. All this equates into completing the burner faster. So if you are happy with reducing the time it takes to complete burners you might be able to get away with less/no OH and with less bling by replacing dps modules with more tank. The fits and skills and implants in the guide is all about decreasing the 'time' component as much as possible and as is realistic. If you look hard enough you might find some less bling fits, especially in the burner mega thread but because of the way the burner repairing threshold works, over that repair threshold additional dps greatly increases the speed that you complete burners. So yes, the burners cheat by having stats 'similar' to ships that are faction and DED fit (with links) that are overheating those modules without burning them out. The advantage the player has of course is that it's (mostly) predictable AI and fixed fits so you can build ships around those cheats.

I can see maybe one or two for clearing and blitzing... The only upside of all the unique hulls is that it requires you to train up a lot of base gunnery and small-medium ship skills that you wouldn't necessarily invest in otherwise. And with the acquisition of skill injectors this isn't quite as arduous process as it used to be. I don't think anything will make the Gurista Base worth running short of redesigning it.

The Machariel is currently fit with 1400 arties purely for Scarlet. It's the fastest aligning, sub warp and warp ship capable of 1 shotting Scarlet so great for getting through all the gates and grabbing the can. Then I have My Polarized Vargur that I use primarily for Angel Pirate Invasion (MJD, Bastion, Blap 6 BS at less than 10km with Hail, warp away) but I sometimes use it when I'm a bit bored and just want to murder all the things in Gone Bezerk or Attack of the drones.

This setup is safe, this is fast - and most importantly, it's cap stable. You can run this thing for a hundred missions without worrying on having to stock up on missiles, drones or cap boosters. Yes, it is a bit on the pricer side - but considering the hull is half the investment that's not bad. No overheating - no resupplying - no repairs. It doesn't get any easier than that. The most expensive item (and deal breaker with this fit) is the 'Thurifer' Large Cap Battery. You don't have enough grid with anything else. With implants and V skills this has a 75.5km range (although you'll get half of that since you're damped) and does 761 DPS with drones, applied 100%. Your active shield tank (sustainable) is 1102.2 HP/s. This is actually about 10-15% more tank than my previous Cerberus fit and also more than the Vagabond fit in the guide. By running a passive damage control it also gives you a bit of 'GTFO' room in the form of a hull and armor buffer in the event you clip one or more of the sentry turrets (please don't). ..Snip.. The fit also has enough flexibility such that you could slightly decrease damage, increase tank or buff targeting range to offset damps by substituting a Signal Amplifier II in place of the DC and a Medium Ionic Field Projector II in place of the Warhead Calefaction rig. This actually gives you an insane 195km targeting range which is probably enough to compensate for any damps. There's a couple of problems with that fit but the Cerb is a perfectly capable alternative to the Vaga. First off the big difference between the Vaga and the Cerb is that the Vaga goes well over 1km/s faster. There is two things this extra speed helps with; traveling from ship to ship (the main time sink in this mission) and speed tanking. So the Cerb will need to both approach at a steeper angle to keep transversal high enough and will take longer to start combat. It can make up for this by having higher resists and by doing way more damage. So lets have a look at what's wrong with your fit. First off you will rarely need to tank and MWD at the same time so cap stable is a waste. I understand the issue with unstable internet but if you have unstable internet then burners are NOT something you should be doing in the first place. No amount of cap stability will save you in burners since they all point you. The Medium cap booster uses normal cap 800s. These are extremely cheap and easy to get. Heck you can manufacture them yourself if you want. There is 0 reason to not run one. In fact, I've had some missions where I don't even use the cap booster but sometimes you get a little unlucky on wrecking hits so the extra bit of cap on call is nice. Also, the Cerb has 150m3 more cargo space. Since burst tanking is actually far superior for this mission in particular because of the somewhat frequent wrecking shots you'll get a Pith Shield booster is better than a Gist. As a bonus it uses less PG. For the rest of the tanking stuff you have fit, the base therm resist is already higher than that of the Vaga so no need for the rig. The Vaga does get a boost bonus though so keeping the Boost Amp is a good idea. So overall the Cerb tank is stronger than that of the Vaga with near identical modules fitted. With the changes to damage controls and hull resists, not to mention the extremely strong kin/therm base armor resists on the Cerb, a DCU is not a requirement for the Cerb (or the Vaga for that matter but it can afford it slot wise). This means you can at least up the speed a tiny bit by fitting an Overdrive. The MWD should be switched to a Corelum for cap usage. Rapid lights are a horrible choice for a weapon system for this mission for a couple of reasons. First off you're shooting at BCs so the application advantage gets wasted. Secondly even taking into account the burst damage (You wont kill one of these BCs in a single reload I'm sure) and the very generous implant bonuses you give it, it's STILL 100 dps less than HAMs and if you take reloads into account it's only barely over HALF of HAMs. Because of the damps there is no reason to not run HAMs. There is the tiny problem of PG when going with hams so you'll need a T1 Ancil rig but the Calefaction rig is still good. Basically if I were to use a Cerb for this mission this is what I would be running, and even then I think it's slightly over tanked. You'll spend more time flying to each rat but you'll kill them a lot faster than the Vaga.

It's all nice and well being able to shoot at it from the start but you need to get to where the rat is no matter how you look at it and it goes a lot slower. -Cap boosters Not much here to say regarding something as irrelevant as the problem you have - Shield booster No, the pith is superior because you're not facing constant damage. Gist will work fine yes but it's more expensive both in isk and PG for no advantage.

The primary criteria for these missions is that they are completed fast since they can't compete with burners. Secondary is good isk/min. No normal lv4 mission, except maybe for Scarlet and Recon 1, comes anywhere close to burner isk/m. Rogue Slave Trader is borderline viable and only because the 2nd mission in the chain is comparable to other lv4 blitz missions on my list and the first while having pretty bad rewards is completed really fast. I generally only run these two if I'm low on standing otherwise I even skip them. Also I don't include main faction missions (Anti-Amarr for example) as the faction standings cost is high over the long run. So just because a mission has 'blitzable qualities' does not mean it qualifies to be on the list. The isk/lp rate has settled somewhat at a lower 1400-1600 rate depending on if you are willing to list and update probe launcher prices. I'm not aware of any other faction that can deal with the volume of items SOE can and still stay steady on isk/lp. It's always been a fact that people with market savvy can get much higher returns on smaller volumes of items at LP stores other than SOE. I did a recent test run again and, mostly due to increased skills and tightening of run times/ship fits, I was able to still get well over 250mill/h with a sub 1400isk/lp conversion rate. I've also noticed the faction module drop rate on the burners is either down or more likely, just getting the short end of the RNG stick.

I've been able to alpha Scarlett off the grid with a blaster kronos and a cruise golem, sometimes even takes two volleys from the kronos and still manage to get her. To be clear, you run into scarlet a potential of 3 times. Once you go through the first acceleration gate you see her for the first time. Activating any module on her instantly has her jump out. The only ship I am aware of that does enough instant alpha (over 4500 applied 'instant' damage) every single time is an arty boat. It's possible a kronos could get lucky with a smashing or wrecking hit but I don't think it'd be guaranteed. You get her 5mill bounty if you manage to alpha her here. After the 2nd acceleration gate you run into scarlet AGAIN even if you killed her the first time you run into her. This time she does not instantly warp away and this is where most people kill her if you have enough dps. Missile boats and even high dps AFs can do it. You get the social implant as well as another 5mill bounty here. IF you don't kill her here, you will find her in the last room (and no social implant I believe).
