But its so stupid. You dont seem to understand the vast difference in EHP between a full buffer Hel, for example, and everything else currently residing in hisec.

Lets take a look at the comparison between, the most EHP intensive ship in hisec, a jump freighter, with a Buffer Hel.

An Anshar with bulkhead 2s equipped, has around 900K EHP. Lets round that up to 1 million EHP. It takes around 20-30 stealth bombers to take down an anti-tanked anshar in .5 space, which means its gonna take atleast 30 for a fully tanked anshar to be taken down, most likely more.

A buffer fit Hel, has around 13.4 million EHP, but lets round that down to 13 million. So it will take 13 times the DPS to kill the Hel than it does to kill the anshar.

So 13 times 30, is around 390 pilots. Thats a sh*t ton of pilots. Lets double the Concord response time, for some reason, to 40 seconds in 0.5 space. Thats still going to be around 190, 200 pilots. This is Burn jita levels of participation.

How much isk is this going to take, you ask? Well, each Stealth Bomber right now, equipped with just torp launchers and ballistics, costs around 40 million isk. Thats 8 billion isk worth of ships to take down a Hel.

Do you honestly think people will put that much effort into something like that, even beyond once a month? Burn Jita only occurs once a year, remember.
