When running missions a lot of information is given to you through the names of the various NPC ships.

  • The Main part of the name indicates ship class
  • The prefix indicates if the Rat is a Commander or an Elite ship
  • The suffix indicates the role of the Rat in the context of the mission
  • Commander Ships: Inflict Greater Damage and have a better range than a regular Rat of the same class.
  • Elite ships inflict greater damage, have a better tank, a higher chance of Stasis Web and Warp Scramble than a regular Rat of the same class.

Note: This does not mean that only Elite ships can tackle you, it only means they have a higher chance of doing so. This information is intended to give you a general feel for the Rats you'll be facing in missions, for specific information on Rats you'll need to look at mission walkhroughs.
