== Summary ==
The Abaddon is the Amarr Combat Battleship (post teiricide). It has a bonus to laser damage and armor resistances, but the normal bonus to laser capacitor use is conspicuously missing. This makes the Abaddon a "high skill" ship for PvE, because it requires good core skills to keep its lasers firing while powering its tank. The bonus to tank and the high damage makes the Abaddon a popular PvP ship, where its difficulty staying cap stable is also not so much of an issue.
+
The '''Abaddon''' (or "'Baddon") is a Tech 1 Amarr battleship known for its strong potential armor buffer tank. It shares this trait with its lesser counterparts the [[Punisher]] and [[Maller]]. It has high base hitpoints, a bonus to armor damage resistance, and seven low slots for armor tanking modules. Its other bonus boosts the damage of large energy turrets which gives it not only more DPS, but also more volley damage (or "alpha strike").
  
==Skills==
+
These two qualities, a strong armor buffer and high volley damage, make the Abaddon popular for large nullsec fights which favor ships with a lot of volley and buffer tank. In such a context, Abaddons have also been used with artillery turrets despite its energy turret bonus. In large battles, it is usually supported by [[Force Auxiliaries]], and so its low speed (even for a battleship) doesn’t matter that much.

The Abaddon is a highly skill intensive battleship and due to its cost shouldn't be fielded unless proper skills are able to justify its abilities.  The Abaddon is known for its extremely large tank since it is usually equipped with dual 1600mm plates and resistance modules in the low slots. With this battleship the DPS isn't lacking either.  With plenty of the precious CPU to spare, which most Amarr pilots crave, the Mega Pulse Laser IIs can be attached in the highs making this a very dangerous target to encouter on the wrong end of the turret.
+
== Notes ==
 +
"Abaddon" comes from a Hebrew word meaning a place associated with destruction or with the dead. In the Greek text of Revelation 9:11 the Hebrew word is used to name a figure associated with destruction who has been variously interpreted as an angel, a fallen angel, another term for Satan, or the Antichrist.
  
Please know that an Abaddon with a 'fail' fit will only be a large liability on field since the hull isn't agile enough to sustain a high speed fleet movement and usually comes with a hefty price tag as wellSo, be prepared to be primaried and be prepared to sustain high DPS within engagements.  However, if you are part of a fleet those large energy turrets will make all the skill training worth it.

Summary

The Abaddon (or "'Baddon") is a Tech 1 Amarr battleship known for its strong potential armor buffer tank. It shares this trait with its lesser counterparts the Punisher and Maller. It has high base hitpoints, a bonus to armor damage resistance, and seven low slots for armor tanking modules. Its other bonus boosts the damage of large energy turrets which gives it not only more DPS, but also more volley damage (or "alpha strike").

These two qualities, a strong armor buffer and high volley damage, make the Abaddon popular for large nullsec fights which favor ships with a lot of volley and buffer tank.

In large battles, it is usually supported by Force Auxiliaries, and so its low speed (even for a battleship) doesn’t matter that much.

Notes

"Abaddon" comes from a Hebrew word meaning a place associated with destruction or with the dead. In the Greek text of Revelation 9:11 the Hebrew word is used to name a figure associated with destruction who has been variously interpreted as an angel, a fallen angel, another term for Satan, or the Antichrist.
