After the fall of Crielere, the once-cordial relations between the Gallente Federation and the Caldari state deteriorated rapidly and, for a while, it seemed as if war might be brewing. It was seen by certain high-ranking officers within the Gallente navy as being of vital importance to be able to match the Caldari's cloaking technology in an effort to maintain the balance of power. 0 3 1271000 6 330 5 20 Their ignorance is just as valuable as our intelligence.

Skills

It is essential to train Cloaking to IV in order to use the Covert Ops Cloaking Device II. Astrometrics IV, Astrometric Acquisition III, Astrometric Pinpointing III and Astrometric Rangefinding III make a good skills base for scanning. If you intend to develop long term scouting skills, which will require fast accurate scans in a ship that's so nimble it warps almost instantly, it will become essential to train the Covops and Scanning skills to V.

Tactics

Scanning, learn how to scan quickly and effectively by 'Play Hunting' mission ships in High Sec Explore Wormholes, with 'Bookmark Breadcrumbs' so you develop skills using probes to navigate Practice 'Punting', where you can drop a tight scan formation on a gate, so you can punt your fleet onto an enemy But most of all, practice, practice and practice even more the art of re-cloaking in less than the cycle of one second, it will make you almost immortal

Notes

In ancient Greek mythology, Helios was the god associated with the Sun, or a personification of the Sun: in ancient Greek, helios was the word for the Sun. Some writers treated Helios as the son of the titan Hyperion, while other writers considered Hyperion and Helios to be different names for the same deity. ## Patch History
