 Fleet Boosting ships provide the force multiplier for a fleet by making them a stronger force with boosts that would otherwise be unobtainable. Using a module called Command Burst these ships can give boosts to areas such as: armor, shield, skirmish, information,​ and mining. ​ Fleet Boosting ships provide the force multiplier for a fleet by making them a stronger force with boosts that would otherwise be unobtainable.

 The command burst modules come in five different variants, each with three different type of charges giving different effects, as well as a tech one and a tech two version of the command burst modules. The only notable difference between the Command Burst I and Command Burst II module is that the tech two module is +25% stronger and the tech two variant requiring the specialization skill.\\ ​ The command burst modules come in five different variants, each with three different type of charges giving different effects, as well as a tech one and a tech two version of the command burst modules.

 +===Skills===
 +Numerous skills affect the effectiveness of command links. Training these skills is crucial for dedicated fleet boosting ships, especially command destroyers which do not have a role bonus for range. Ship-specific skills typically affect strength and duration for their faction'​s two racial command burst categories; Strategic Cruisers have 3 bonused categories, while the Porpoise is only bonused for mining.

 +===Mindlinks===
 +Mindlinks are slot 10 implants that improve the effect strength of command bursts by 25%. Because of this substantial increase, they should be used whenever possible when flying a dedicated fleet boosting ship. Each mindlink requires Cybernetics V plus the relevant Command Specialist V.
 +
 +In addition to mindlinks for each of the 5 command burst categories, there are five faction mindlinks that provide a bonus to two categories each:
 +
 +^Faction Mindlink^Affected Categories^
 +^Caldari Navy Command Mindlink|Shield Command, Information Command|
 +^Federation Navy Command Mindlink|Armor Command, Skirmish Command|
 +^Imperial Navy Command Mindlink|Armor Command, Information Command|
 +^ORE Mining Director Mindlink|Shield Command, Mining Foreman|
 +^Republic Fleet Command Mindlink|Shield Command, Skirmish Command|
 +

 +
 +====Organization====
 +
 +Command burst organization is typically done in a dedicated in-game channel for alliance fleets.
 +
 +As the fleet is forming, indicate the following information in channel:
 +  * The fleet you are in, if multiple fleets are forming
 +  * The specific charges you are running (drag the charges into the fleet window)
 +  * Your skill level for the specific ship
 +  * The mindlink you are using
 +
 +For example:
 +
 +''​%%>​ STRAT OP GOKU  Shield Harmonizing Charge ​ Shield Extension Charge cd5+ml%%''​ \\
 +''​%%>​ Active Shielding ​ Sensor Optimization cs5+navy ml%%''​ \\
 +''​%%>​ Active Shielding ​ Electronic Superiority cs4+shield ml%%''​
 +
 +Coordinate with other pilots in the channel to ensure the desired boosts are covered. For typical fleets, all of the tanking, shield and skirmish boosts are desired, although the priority will vary. For capital fleets, both shield and armor boosts are desired, even for a purely shield fleet, as the off-tank buffer on capital ships is substantial.
 +
 +During the fleet, if you are no longer able to provide boosts for the fleet, indicate as such along with what charges you were running. If a charge is no longer being covered, organize someone running another charge redundantly,​ or a lower-priority charge, to take it over if possible.
