" Compared to a sentinel which requires less upkeep, I don't see a reason to run with a Kubrow. The mods feel like a pain in the ass to get, the cost of creating one is far too high and the chance of getting the one you may want is low. You would think with all the future science and cloning and whatnot you could choose what you wanted it to be in the incubator process."


 * snip*"The cost of creating it isnt too much and the upkeep isnt either, considering buying stabilazers gives enough for a week and you can get that amout of credits in like 4 void runs."

Lasts for 1 month, not one week, really not expensive at all. 6 pack of stabilizers, 1 stabilizer restores 40% genetic integrity, you lose 10% per day, so you need 1 stabilizer every 4 days, which means 1 pack of stabilizers at 75k credits lasts for ~24-28 days. That's ~3k credits per day, or 1 mission.

The start up cost is high at 150k+, but as a sentinel will run you 115k+, I'd say they're on fairly even ground with regard to startup cost. The kubrow does however take much longer to obtain due to the incubation and maturation periods.

And Kubrows use their abilities better than their sentinel counterparts, ie the Stalk from my Huras Kubrow will last longer and initiate sooner than my Shade's Ghost.
