Most of us are presumably aware that there are capsuleers who fight empire navies on behalf of the Triglavian Collective and that one of the main rewards which the Collective gives to their mercenaries for this is blueprints to produce the Zirnitra-class dreadnought. However, after early observation of the ship’s capabilities since they first started appearing a few months ago, its capabilities seem rather lacking compared to the considerable price that it commands. It really has no purpose right now aside from being an expensive hangar decoration. We’ve seen what the Collective’s ships are capable of when the Collective uses them. Other Triglavian ships which capsuleers have been more expensive than counterparts from the empires, but generally worth the added cost. For example, I particularly enjoyed flying a Drekavac during my time in Anoikis, and since I’ve recently been flying Basilisk and Guardian more than most other ships, I’m interested in learning how to fly a Zarmazd (on first impression, I didn’t expect it to work well, but the Amarr Empire’s upgrade to the Rodiva seems to have found widespread use for armor repair ships. My question is this: Since the Zirnitra blueprints are specifically given as payment, rather than obtained through somewhat more adversarial means, are they trying to rip their mercenaries off by giving them an inferior “export” version of their dreadnought? --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/are-the-triglavians-ripping-off-the-capsuleers-who-work-for-them/232138)._
