Dominix: Difference between revisions

From EVE University Wiki
rewrote the summary. Removed the notes section. The important parts of it should now be in the summary. The 'notes' were rather 'tactics' but whatever.

==Summary==
== Summary ==
The '''Dominix''' (or '''Domi''') is an iconic droneboat, with a bonus to drone damage and hit points.  
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 either provides  flexibility in choosing your drones or the ability to replace lost drones when the other side tries to defang you.  
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.

''Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Dominix for a specific or its common role(s) can be written here.''


Flexibility is generally the theme for the Dominix. As most of tits DPS stems from the drones, the high slots can used in many ways. Turrets can make a Dominix into an absolute DPS machine. Remote reps are a popular choice for small groups of Domis. Neuts are obviously also helpful. In many of those scenarios you also want to fit a drone link augmentor for more drone control range.
== Tactics ==


The Dominix is also flexible in its tank. The most common are certainly armor tank, both buffer and active. But it also has a lot of hull hitpoints which makes a hull tank viable. In some cases Domis are even shield tanked.
'''PvP'''


Domis are currently rather used for solo PvP or in small fleets (in the second case of remote rep). But in the past they have also been used on a larger scale.
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.


They are used for various kinds of PvE. They are able to run nullsec anomalies where the drones automatically aggro the NPCs; but are also a popular option to run level four missions in a drone based ship. 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.
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 sometimes humorously called the "Space Potato" because of its squat and round appearance.
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.
