Partial victory leaves space for future defeat. Total domination guarantees success.
– To the Victor, the Spoils by CEO V. Salvador Sarpati
The Molyneux hijack showed me that capsuleers will do extraordinary things when there’s blood in the water. For a while there, I wasn’t sure we’d get away.
Not because of the Feds. No, they were a joke. But the eggers nearly got me. The amusing thing is that they fought one another as much as they tried to catch me.
Some of them even helped out. You know, the trail of destruction we left in our wake was almost entirely due to them. I think it would be amusing to give them some more toys, don’t you?”
- V. Salvador Sarpati, interviewed by Alton Haveri of the Scope.

Summary
The Vanquisher is a Serpentis titan. It requires both Gallente and Minmatar titan skills to fly. Predictably for a Serpentis ship, it is bonused for stasis webification strength and hybrid turret damage.
The Vanquisher is the highest DPS Titan and the second highest DPS ship in the game to only the Zirnitra. Seeing as it is an extremely expensive faction ship that very few people are privileged to fly, it is essential to have tech two capital hybrids and a full faction/deadspace (preferably officer) tank. It is common to dual tank this ship with both shield and armor mods so as to push the ship's EHP to the absolute ceiling. The Vanquisher can fit both the Gjallarhorn and Aurora Ominae doomsday devices, but the Gjallarhorn is recommended due to the shorter firing delay. Railguns are common due to the long range that titan brawls occur at, but blaster fits with null are also possible.
