In almost all cases, upgrading your hull should be your first goal if you're looking to invest more ISK. ~~While~~ faction and deadspace modules are great, pirate faction hulls often give superior bonuses without inflating the value of droppable modules fit to your ship. ~~For~~ the ~~most part it's a~~ matter ~~of certain~~ pirate faction battleships having ~~double~~ damage bonuses and powerful role bonuses instead of having an offensive and a defensive ~~one~~, plus much better overall ship stats.

In almost all cases, upgrading your hull should be your first goal if you're looking to invest more ISK. Generally speaking for hisec, while faction and deadspace modules are great, pirate faction hulls often give superior bonuses without inflating the value of droppable modules fit to your ship. In the case of Incursions specifically, the matter comes down to the pirate faction battleships having two damage bonuses and powerful role bonuses (instead of having an offensive and a defensive bonus), plus much better overall ship stats such as align time.

Below is a list of some of the differences (relevant to incursions) for a [[Vindicator]] compared to a Hyperion and a [[Machariel]] compared to a Maelstrom. The same kind of vast improvement is found when upgrading to a [[Nightmare]] as well, even though it doesn't have a direct tech one ship to compare it to.
