There exist a wide variety of modules designed for stopping your target from escaping. These modules will either stop your target from warping away, slow down the target ship or stop them from using micro warp drives or micro jump drives. | There exist a wide variety of modules designed for stopping your target from escaping.

| <br>The '''Stasis grappler''' is a battleship-sized variant of the stasis webifier. It can only be fitted to battleships and capital ships, however it applies a much greater speed reduction than a normal web.

Unlike a normal web (which has a fixed 10-15km range), stasis grapplers have only 1km optimal range, but 8-12km ''falloff'' range, meaning that the grappler's extremely powerful speed reduction is only fully effective at extremely close ranges, and beyond that its reduction becomes less and less effective. The chart at the top of this section shows the effectiveness of different grappler variants at different ranges. The result is that within normal web ranges, the grappler applies a much more powerful slow; but that beyond normal web ranges, the grappler still provides a weak slow, which makes the grappler less consistent than a normal web but also much more flexible. | Unlike a normal web (which has a fixed 10-15km range), stasis grapplers have only 1km optimal range, but 8-12km ''falloff'' range, meaning that the grappler's extremely powerful speed reduction is only fully effective at extremely close ranges, and beyond that its reduction becomes less and less effective.
