I proposed “fixing” FOBs by spawning a number of anoms and sigs along with it in order to deplete its defenders, to the point its doable by bunch of disorganized locals. Or even its being exposed to removal by CONCORD.
Combat anoms to reduce defenders numbers and stop them from respawning indefinitely.
Data sites to expose its pocation to turn it to a beacon in local, to stop its combat mods from functioning.
One of the features with FOBs and especially Sotiyos is them being hidden. In good days of olde one had to run a sysyem wide scan to find if there are any signatures. That could be a way not to expose their presence too early, their signatures could be hidden and needed to be discovered first.
Sotiyos are fine afaik, but FOBs lack incentive to run them, ie reward is ship.
