| - | [[eve:ships:battleships|Battleships]] are the biggest and meanest subcapital ships, but are also the slowest. They can fit large guns which have a lot of trouble hitting frigates. If a lot of frigates start orbiting you very close and you don't have drones/drone skills to kill them, be very afraid. Battleships typically have a lot of fitting slots. Please get your support skills to at least level 4 before using these. Make sure you can fit a T2 tank. These would be suitable for Level 4 missions, if you swing that way. Some commonly used battleships in TEST are the [[eve:ships:battleships:maelstrom|Maelstrom]] and [[eve:ships:battleships:nightmare]]. | + | [[eve:ships:battleships]] are the biggest and meanest subcapital ships, but are also the slowest.

| - | ---- | + | ====Shuttles==== |
| + | [[eve:ships:shuttles]] are simple transport craft, mainly designed to ferry capsuleers to other, more expensive and useful ships quickly. They are of limited utility beyond that. | ||
| + | ====Corvettes==== | ||
| + | [[eve:ships:corvettes]] are the starting ships that every player starts with. If a capsuleer ends up docked in a station in a capsule, they will also receive one for free from their friendly insurance company. | ||

| + | Armed with basic weaponry and poor stats, they are useless beyond the start of the game except to act as expendable Cyno ships. | ||

| ====Frigates==== | ====Frigates==== | ||
| * [[eve:ships:frigates:assault_ships|Assault Ships]] - Fast and pack a punch considering their size. Rely on high resists and sometimes high speed to survive. A bit more versatile then an interceptor in both PVE and PVP, but no where near as fast. Cheap ship hull. Editor's note, Assault Ships can be very fun in random PVP fleets. | * [[eve:ships:frigates:assault_ships|Assault Ships]] - Fast and pack a punch considering their size.

| - | * [[eve:ships:frigates:interceptors|Interceptor]]: Extremely fast and agile, hard to hit. Their purpose is to [[training:tackler:tackling_guide|tackle]] enemies to stop them from getting away. Very cheap. Be careful not to get webbed (slowed). Low damage, extremely useful in fleets. Interceptors are like baby's first tackle frigate on speed. | + | * [[eve:ships:frigates:interceptors|Interceptor]]: Extremely fast and agile, hard to hit.

| * [[eve:ships:frigates:covert_ops|Covert Op]]: Most basic of the stealth ships (also know as 'covops' ships, these ships fit Covert Ops Cloaking Devices and can move at full speed/warp while cloaked). There are two types of covops frigate, the Stealth Bomber and the Covert Ops ship. Stealth Bombers have two main functions, stealthily dropping on an opponent and shoving torpedoes in their butt, or quickly dropping a single area-of-effect bomb and getting the fuck out. Normally best killing various ships solo, or in groups. Also function as great scouts. Covops frigates are more suited to scanning and scouting for fleets. | * [[eve:ships:frigates:covert_ops|Covert Op]]: Most basic of the stealth ships (also know as 'covops' ships, these ships fit Covert Ops Cloaking Devices and can move at full speed/warp while cloaked).

| * [[eve:ships:frigates:electronic_attack|Electronic Attack]]: Ewar frigates which are heavily bonused in the systems they target. Very powerful but very squishy. Do not underestimate their ewar ability simply because they are a frigate. These ships are nearly as powerful as their cruiser counterparts. | * [[eve:ships:frigates:electronic_attack|Electronic Attack]]: Ewar frigates which are heavily bonused in the systems they target.

| * [[eve:ships:battleships:marauders|Marauder]]: People use it for fast [[eve:pve:mission_running|missioning]], since they have a 100% bonus on tractor beams for looting and salvaging. That's basically it, these are too damn expensive to use in normal PVP. | * [[eve:ships:battleships:marauders|Marauder]]: People use it for fast [[eve:pve:mission_running|missioning]], since they have a 100% bonus on tractor beams for looting and salvaging.

| * [[eve:ships:industrials|Industrial]] ships designed, in essence, to move things around in space in bulk. It is suggested that every pilot at least be able to fly a low-skill T1 industrial. The Orca and Rorqual are also used for boosting in mining fleets, much like Command ships are used for boosting in normal fleets full of people who aren't nerds. | * [[eve:ships:industrials|Industrial]] ships designed, in essence, to move things around in space in bulk.
