What’s the Best Covops?

Published June 23, 2024 by Arak

The best covops is whichever one you think looks prettiest. See you next time.

Wait, you’re still here? Fine, fine. But “What’s the best covops for me?” is really a better question. When deciding between the 4 covops frigates (Anathema, Buzzard, Cheetah, Helios), there are a few things to consider. This’ll be from the perspective of exploration, not scouting for a fleet or what have you. I’ll also include starter fits for each one.

The Gecko setup works well because the Geckos do a lot of damage and have a lot of tank while the light flies around and pops caches for you. If you’re comfortable dumping more ISK into the fit, a flight of good mutated weather-appropriate heavy navy drones will noticeably speed up clear times in rooms that aren’t heavy on drone aggro (albeit at the cost of making can popping less convenient).
