The Dominix is one of the old warhorses dating back to the Gallente-Caldari War. While no longer regarded as the king of the hill, it is by no means obsolete. Its formidable hulk and powerful drone arsenal means that anyone not in the largest and latest battleships will regret ever locking horns with it.

Summary

The Dominix (or "Domi") is an iconic droneboat with a bonus to drone damage and hit points. It is the fifth entry in the Gallente line of droneboats, after the Tristan, Algos, Vexor, and Myrmidon. It has the 125Mb bandwidth required to field a full flight of heavy or sentry drones and a 375m³ drone bay large enough to carry several flights of differently sized drones. This provides pilots with either flexibility in choosing drones, or the ability to replace lost drones when opponents are destroying them. Flexibility is generally the theme for the Dominix, which is open to many types of fitting.

In PvP, Dominixes are typically flown solo PvP or in small fleets (often, if in small fleets, using remote repairers to support each other).

The Dominix is also used for various kinds of PvE combat. It can run nullsec anomalies where the drones automatically aggro the NPCs, but it is also a popular choice for running Level 4 missions. The Dominix outcompetes the other Tech 1 drone battleship, the Armageddon, in this role, as it has bonuses to drone tracking and range that the Armageddon lacks.

Tactics

PvP

As most of the ship's DPS stems from the drones, the high slots can be used in many ways. Turrets can make a Dominix into an absolute DPS machine. With no bonuses for a particular turret type, projectile turrets are a popular option, as they use no capacitor and allow damage selection.

Remote reps are a popular high slot choice for small groups of Domis, which can then collectively repair whichever member is targeted. Energy neutralizers for capacitor warfare are obviously also helpful. A drone link augmentor can usefully increase the drone control range.

The Dominix is also flexible in its tank. It is most commonly armor-tanked, either buffer or active. It also has many hull hitpoints, making a hull tank viable. In some cases Domis are even shield-tanked.

PvE

Domis in missions often use sentries and an MJD to snipe the NPCs from a distance, but fits based on heavy drones are also viable.

Notes

The Dominix is sometimes humorously called the "Space Potato" because of its round, squat appearance.
