==Summary==
== Summary ==
Osprey is the best standard mining cruiser. It has a bonus to mining lasers like the [[Scythe]], which outshines the bonus to mining drones on the [[Vexor]] and [[Arbitrator]], and it has better CPU, making it easier to fit Mining Laser Upgrades. If you can't fly a mining barge yet then the Osprey is your best choice.
 
The '''Osprey''' is the Tech 1 Caldari [[logistics]] cruiser, with bonuses to shield transfers and energy transfers.
 
Like the Minmatar [[Scythe]], the Osprey is designed to boost other ships' shields. However, unlike the Scythe, and instead like the Amarr armor-repairing [[Augoror]], the Osprey is designed to trade capacitor with other Ospreys in a "capacitor chain". Because of their 200% bonus to energy transfer amount, Ospreys trading energy transfers to each other effectively create a large amount of capacitor out of nothing. A cap-chained Osprey can be capacitor-stable with lower skills than a Scythe, and will also more easily resist [[Capacitor warfare|energy neutralization]]. On the downside, a cap-chain team of logistics ships is more vulnerable to [[ECM]], because a jammed Osprey not only can't shield-boost its fellows, but also can't transfer capacitor, reducing its teammates' remote repair capacity. Cap-chained logistics ships also demand more coordination from their pilots.
 
The Osprey is piloted in a similar fashion to the more powerful Tech 2 [[Basilisk]].
 
== Skills ==
 
An Osprey can make a battlefield difference with relatively limited pilot skills, but good general [[support skills]] will boost its impact.
 
{{sk|Capacitor Management}} and {{sk|Capacitor Systems Operation}} are important for logistics ships. Training in {{sk|Shield Emission Systems}} reduces the capacitor burden of remote shield boosters, as {{sk|Capacitor Emission Systems}} does for remote capacitor transfer modules. Several skills in the Targeting category are also helpful: {{sk|Signature Analysis}} and {{sk|Target Management}} make it easier to shuttle between repairing different allies, while {{sk|Gravimetric Sensor Compensation}} raises the Osprey's sensor strength, reducing its vulnerability to ECM.
 
== Tactics ==
 
The Osprey is typically fitted with a mixture of remote shield boosters and remote capacitor transferrers in its high slots; propulsion, shield tank, and ECCM for jam resistance in the mid slots; and mobility and capacitor aids in the low slots. The exact mixture of modules can be tuned to different character skill levels. The drone bay can be used for logistics drones (unbonused, unlike those of the Scythe), or for damage or ECM drones.
 
The pilots of Ospreys in a capacitor chain must coordinate carefully before battle, and might benefit from their own logistics comms channel and/or their own logistics commander.


==Skills==
== Notes ==
''Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Osprey for a specific or it's common role(s) can be written here.''


==Fitting==
The osprey is a large bird of prey which, unusually for a raptor, hunts fish.

|notes=
*Since the Osprey's cargohold is relatively small, you will most likely have to do Jetcan mining. The Small Tractor Beam allows you to drag your jetcan around while you mine.
*Unless you are extremely unfortunate, you are unlikely to be a target of suicide gank. Therefore you are more likely to worry about those annoying and pesky belt rats. Large Shield Extender I provides a buffer to your shield and the Civilian Shield Booster I gives you a small shield repair when your shield is damaged by belt rats. And no, unless you have Electronics V you will be unable to fit a Small Shield Booster.
*Hobgoblins to take care of belt rats. You can have a mixture of Mining Drones and Combat Drones if you wish, just remember to recall your mining drones when belt rats comes or you might find your mining drones under attack.
