Spyglass Scanner - Inferno - 10-17-2016
So uh, sorry to bother again, but I noticed there were three 'large' scanners, per say.
The Battleship Scanner, made for, duh, capital vessels.
The Spyglass Network Scanner, which is just a Battleship Scanner, for snubs.
And the Spyglass Scanner...which is...made for not-capital vessels?
Anyway, I was thinking, does it have 100% powercore like the tech viewer actually shows? Just want to be sure, in case I get 1-% nerfed because I wanted one and now I'm several million in the hole.

There are no technerfs for scanners currently (there used to be one in the past for BS Scanner but not anymore). If you can get your hands on a Spyglass, then you get bragging rights and street cred.
RE: Spyglass Scanner - Inferno - 10-17-2016
Right. From the statistics though, I'd be better off using a Battleship scanner. What makes the Spyglass better than the BS Scanner?
RE: Spyglass Scanner - eigos - 10-17-2016
Nothing besides bragging rights and RP reasons that you could think of yourself
