The void is our home, drink deep of its shadows and know no fear. – Caravanmaster Rani Hrada Black Ops battleships are designed for infiltration and espionage behind enemy lines. With the use of a short-range jump drive and a portal generator, they are capable of making a special type of jump portal usable only by covert ops vessels. This enables them to stealthily plant reconnaissance and espionage forces in enemy territory. For the final word in clandestine maneuvers, look no further.

Summary

The Panther is the Minmatar Black Ops. It has four bonuses for projectile turrets and, furthermore, the highest base speed of all battleship hulls. However, because it has a high mass (nearly 150 kt), its speed with a propulsion module isn’t as impressive.

Panthers commonly use armor buffer tanks and fill a DPS role. Despite the Panther’s DPS bonuses, which make the five turret hardpoints correspond to ten unbonused turrets, it cannot match the DPS of the Redeemer, which can mount a battery corresponding to twelve unbonused turrets and also usually fits one more damage-bonus module. In most situations, the Panther’s additional mid (typically used for a web) and high (typically used for another energy neutralizer) don’t compensate for the lower DPS.

Due to the Panther’s high base speed, it’s also sometimes fitted for kiting with nanofiber modules. In this configuration, the pilot can pull range with a residual heated MWD cycle while cloaked.

Patch history

A long, long time ago...

Version 23.02 - Release 2026-03-31.1 - (Patch Notes) The Panther's Black Ops bonuses have been adjusted: The 7.5% Large Projectile Turret tracking bonus has been returned. The 15% Heavy Stasis Grappler Falloff bonus has been removed. A 20% Heavy Stasis Grappler Optimal Range bonus has been added. The loss of the tracking bonus hit the Panther much harder than intended, and as such it has been reverted. The Heavy Stasis Grappler falloff bonus was also not proving to be worth the mid slot, so this has been swapped with an optimal range bonus instead. This bonus should provide the Panther with a strong control option when the module is overheated. Version 23.02 - Release 2026-03-18.1 - (Patch Notes) Panther: Removed 50% Armor Plate Bonus. Removed 100% Shield Extender Bonus. Removed 7.5% Tracking Bonus. Added 15% Heavy Stasis Grappler Falloff bonus per Black Ops skill level.
