Cynos, why are they in the game? What does the picture with arrows and ships mean? Let's watch together. This device helps some types of ships instantly move from one solar system to another, bypassing the hypergate. Can be activated in lowsec and below, does not work in highsec. 

Types of cynos

1) Regular - can only be set with force recon - these are Arazu, Rapier, Falcon, Pilgrim, Enforcer, or black ops can also set it up. If you see this type of ship next to you in space, not in highsec, then most likely a Dreadnought, Carrier, Fax, Supercara or even a Titan will soon fly to you, or a fleet generally ported through a titan. 



Or a Rorqual, Jump Freighter or Black Ops can jump on a regular cyno.

2) Industrial - is set on fire from Venture, T1 and T2 trucks. Most often used to move jump freighters due to its cheapness and ease of pumping. For example, industrial cyno on Venture: 



Black ops can also jump on it, i.e. you can even arrange fishing for pirates if you have friends on such ships. But already a dreadnought and above to titanium, i.e. capital ships cannot jump on industrial cyno. And earlier, even a corvette like the Ibis could burn ordinary cyno, and in this way in lowsec dreadnoughts killed a lot of pirates at that time. 

3) Covert - the longest training, and works on ships capable of putting on coverttcloak. But on T2 versions: 
Force Recons, Black Ops, T2 scanners like the Buzzard, Prospect, T2 blockade runner truck, bomber, T3 strategic cruiser.

Only Black Ops jump on covert syno, this cynos is no longer suitable for industrial ships and capital: 



They are used both for PvE farm expeditions there, and for PvP, cyno drops on the enemy fleet.  That is, with one window you set fire to the cyno, or your friends do it for you, and with the second, on a capital, jump freighter or black ops you jump.

Portals for the fleet 

Now let's talk about such a feature that some ships can also move a fleet with or without themselves using a portal generator:



1) Titans - can portal any fleet, and if you have two titans in a bundle, then consider that you have temporarily made your own hypergate between systems. 
2) Rorqual - can portal barges like retrievers, etc., and also make a conductive jump with a fleet along with 25 retrievers. 
3) Black Ops - can portal a covert fleet, anything that can put on a carpet cloak. And a conduit jump with a fleet is also available.
4) Carrier - with the new update, carriers can make a conduct jump for 25 people with a sub-capital fleet, a kind of mini-titan. But there seems to be a cooldown of 4 or 6 hours after two jumps.

How is cyno useful in practice?

Let's say we want to take loot from Dodixie to Jita with a jump freighter, but not meet gankers in Uedama and fly 15 jumps one way. So, we training out cyno for all three characters on the second account, get into the jump freighter with the main one and look at Dotlan: 



C from the Dodixie side, the closest low to Jita, and not so dangerous, for the jump is the Crielere system.



Roughly speaking, you can fly from Dodixie to Jita in one jump, usually in two. We will return back in the same way. From Jita to the Mya system:



We place the remaining two cynos on the account in the Rancer and Mya systems, you get the Dodixie-Jita route, through cynos, bypassing the Uedama, which can be burned in turn. 

The same can be done along the Dodixie - Amarr, Dodixie - Rens or Hek route. Some people even make a route of 6 or more cynos, for example, to deliver something to deep nullsec and back. To prevent the freighter from being caught, cyno is usually burned on a friendly astrahus or fortizar at 0 meters, or next to an NPC station at 0 meters, and these should be lows adjacent to the highsector, so that the jump freighter does not fly through the gates in lowsec.
