:''' | :'''A strongly tanked Tech III [[Strategic Cruiser]] or battleship is required to handle this room, with at least 2000 EHP/sec active reps and minimum 50K EHP of buffer. You must be able to both repair and tank considerable damage. A overtanked cruiser or battlecruiser (such as a [[Maller]] or [[Prophecy]]) may be capable of surviving for a time with proper use of the Vessel Rejuvenation Batteries but will not survive Colossal Shockwaves very well: in that case to ensure that loot is not lost in the event of failure, eject loot at regular intervals to be returned to later.'''<br /> | ||
