'''The Amarr Basic Ship and Skill Guide''' is intended to give fitting and skill recommendations for Amarr ships in both Player vs. Environment (PVE) and Player vs. Player (PVP) encounters.

This is a work in progress, and the guide's [http://www.eve-ivy.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=28096 Discussion Thread] is on the Eve University forum. Please direct comments, suggestions, and corrections to that thread.
The Amarr Empire is one of the four playable factions and, like the others, has a distinct line of ships with specific quirks and abilities.
{{RaceShipInfo|Amarr}}


== General Traits ==
The following traits are shared by most or all Amarr ships:


=10 reasons to fly Amarr=
* '''[[Armour tanking]]'''.  Amarrian ships have high base armour, and several ships have direct bonuses to armour resistances: for example, the Punisher, Maller, Prophecy, and Abaddon. Armor tanks use up low slots, can slow ships down, and are hungry for powergrid, but they leave mid slots free, require relatively less CPU, and (in active tanks) place comparatively lower burdens on the capacitor than shield tanks
<br>
* '''[[Turrets#Energy turrets|Energy turrets]]'''.  These are the standard for the majority of Amarrian damage-dealing vessels.  Energy turrets (more usually "lasers") offer a reliable combination of range and damage when compared with projectile or hybrid turrets. Their ammo, energy crystals, can be swapped out instantly. Tech 1 crystals last forever, and faction and Tech 2 crystals wear out only slowly. On the other hand, energy turrets use a great deal of capacitor to fire, tend to have comparatively poor tracking speeds for their size, and can only ever deal thermal and EM damage, which can make it impossible to hit some enemies' weaker damage resistances.
#Amarr is the best because it is.  You can't argue with truth.
** The short-ranged energy weapons, pulse lasers, have long ranges compared to projectile autocannon and hybrid turrets but lack the raw punch of hybrid blasters or the selectable damage and forgiving falloff of autocannon.
#Freak'n LAZORS!!!
** The long-ranged energy weapons, beam lasers, have reliable DPS, but are shorter-ranged than hybrid railguns or projectile artillery, and lack the selectable damage and alpha strike potential of artillery.
#Men armour tank.  Shelids or whatever is that red bar above your manly tank.
* '''[[Drones]]'''. The Amarr ship line-up comes second only to the Gallente in terms of drone bays, bandwidth, and ships with drone bonuses. Amarr drone ships tend to have slightly larger drone bays than their Gallentean counterparts, which means more tactical flexibility and drone replacement, but also tend to have less drone bandwidth, which means a lower DPS cap. These differences even out at the battleship level, as the Armageddon and the Dominix match in these respects.
#Amarr discovered how to jump around space. So everyone else would be stuck on stupid planets without us anyways.
* '''Large capacitors.''' Amarr pilots rely heavily on their capacitors; lasers are heavy on the capacitor to such a degree that many Amarrian hulls have a bonus that decreases capacitor usage of energy turrets. Amarr hulls tend to have larger capacitors than the hulls of the other empires and many Amarrian pilots prioritize capacitor skills.
#Did anyone mention the freak'n lazors?
* '''[[Capacitor warfare]]'''. The Dragoon and the Armageddon have bonuses that make them particularly effective with energy neutralizers used to drain targets' capacitors. These synergise well with the naturally strong capacitors found on Amarr ships, and with the use of drones, which require no capacitor. Amarr proficiency with capacitor warfare continues in T2 ships with the Black Ops {{sh|Redeemer}} and the widely-feared {{sh|Curse}} and {{sh|Pilgrim}}.
#There is no six and this is because we Amarr decided it would be that way.
* '''[[Electronic warfare#Weapon disruption|Weapon Disruption]]''' is the Amarr EWAR specialism. Weapon disruption can cut the ranges and tracking speeds of turrets, or the ranges and precision of missiles. It is situationally powerful, but not as universally powerful as ECM or sensor dampening: different modules must be fitted to disrupt turrets or to disrupt missiles, which reduces tactical flexibility.
#Symmetry anyone?
* '''Low speeds'''. Amarr ships tend to have low base speeds for their size and class, often fit armour plates which further reduce their speed and agility, and often use low slots for tank or damage rather than speed modules. Given the high low slots, Amarr ships ''can'' sometimes be speed-fitted, but at the cost of tank and damage.
#Have you seen the Amarr Battleship lineup?  If you were locked at the time then not for long.
* [[Missiles]]. No ''Tech 1'' Amarr ships focus on missiles, but there is a line of ''Tech 2'' Amarr ships with missile bonuses: the {{sh|Vengeance}}, {{sh|Malediction}}, {{sh|Heretic}}, {{sh|Sacrilege}}, and {{sh|Damnation}}. These are not a concern for Amarr pilots who are just starting out, but dedicated Amarr pilots might find themselves training into them one day.
#We haz Lazors.
#Amarr have enslaved every other race they have encountered. 'Nuff said.

=Amarr General Information=
If there is one broad characteristic that runs across Amarr ships, it is '''energy'''. Amarr ships aren't the most versatile, and they don't always have great speed or the highest on-paper DPS, but they have immense reserves of capacitor which they can use to pound opponents with extremely reliable and consistent laser damage—with potentially infinite ammo!—and to drain opponents dry with powerful capacitor warfare.


Amarr are one of the four character races, and like the others, have a distinct line of ships with specific quirks and capabilities.  Amarr ships use [[Armour tanking|armour tanking]] to protect themselves and primarily employ [[Turrets|turrets]], specifically Energy Turrets (lasers) to do damage. 
== Notable Uses ==
* Armour tanking is the most popular tanking method for PvP, and is also the norm for Gallente and some Minmatar ships (making it the standard for [[Spider Tanking|Remote Repairing]]).  Amarr ships have lots of base armour hp, and several ships have direct bonuses to armour resists (T1 examples: Punisher, Maller, Prophecy, and Abaddon). 
* Energy turrets are unique to Amarr vessels -- no other races' ships have bonuses for lasers.  Lasers have the highest capacitor usage of any weapon system, and accordingly Amarr ships have very robust capacitors.  Many Amarr ship bonuses mitigate this capacitor usage, and most Amarr skill plans prioritize skills to make capacitors bigger and quicker to recharge, and to reduce the capacitor requirements of lasers.
* With some ships in the Amarr line-up second only to Gallente hulls for drone capacity, Amarr pilots can use [[Drones|drones]] to great effect. 
* Armour tanking tends to directly cut ships' speed, and, given that Amarr ships tend to have lower than average base speeds, tanked Amarr fits are often ponderous.  If, however, less tank is required Amarr ships' numerous low slots let them overtake even Minmatar ships at a cost, with the T2 Crusader interceptor beating out the Claw by a slim margin for the title of fastest racial frigate.


'''PvE'''


In PvP, Amarr ships have by now been a 'flavor of the month' for much more than a month, and can be extremely useful in nearly all roles. Exceptional armour tanks, big capacitors and the excellent combination of damage and range offered by lasers all make Amarr ships popular for PvP.
A classic progression of Amarr [[mission]] ships would be to train the Punisher and {{sh|Coercer}} for Level 1 missions, the {{sh|Omen}} or {{sh|Arbitrator}} for L2s, the {{sh|Harbinger}} for L3s, and finally the {{sh|Apocalypse}} for L4s.  Amarrian laser ships are more restricted when running missions and [[ratting]] than the other races. Within Amarr space, against the Blood Raiders and Sansha's Nation factions, Amarrian ships are probably the most effective of all (as is typical with the other empires). However, lasers only do thermal and EM damage, so other typical NPC enemy factions are tougher for lasers. This is a concern for some Eve University pilots who want to try mission-running close to home, as the University is based in Caldari space where Guristas are the common faction.


* Note, however, that the E-Uni PvP roles of [[Tackling 101 Guide|tackler]] and [[EWar 101 Guide|EWAR]] can be difficult for new Amarr pilots as Amarr ships don't excel at these roles with low SP.  Amarr frigates have very few mid slots and the Punisher is quite slow while the Executioner is very fragile.  The Amarr EWAR is Tracking Disruption (TD) and, although it is extremely useful in certain circumstances, it has no effect on ships that do not use turrets to do damage.
One alternative option is to brush up on drone skills and use the line of Amarr ships which use drones rather than lasers as their primary weapon. Since drones are easily swapped and allow fully-selectable damage, this lets pilots target whatever type of damage NPCs are weakest to. A pilot doing this would progress through the {{sh|Dragoon}}, {{sh|Arbitrator}}, {{sh|Prophecy}}, and {{sh|Armageddon}} (though note that until the battleship stage and the Armageddon, the Amarr drone ships have a little less bandwidth than their Gallente counterparts).


In Wormholes, the Harbinger can run C1 and C2 combat sites, although it may have trouble with either range or tracking due to the variety of sleeper hulls that can orbit either close or far. Like the other turret-based BCs, the Harbinger does much better in fleets than solo for wormholes. C3 wormholes can also be done in a Harbinger with a fleet of sufficient size.


In PvE, Amarr ships are less popular than other races for running [[Missions|missions]].  Due to the ability of lasers to only do Thermal and EM damage many of the rats become more difficult to combat then they would be otherwise.  However, there are many effective work arounds to be found and many people do mission with Amarr ships exclusively.
For salvaging, a {{sh|Coercer}} makes a very good, cheap salvager.


Amarr ships are also highly popular with armour [[Incursions|incursion]] fleets, especially the {{sh|Paladin}} and {{sh|Legion}}. While not technically an Amarrian ship, the {{sh|Nightmare}} is one of the most sought after ships for shield incursion fleets and uses energy turrets, so is a natural progression for an Amarr pilot willing to cross-train.


Amarr ships tend to stick to the formula of lots of armour for defense and lots of lasers for damage, and there are have fewer 'special case' ships than there are in the other races' lineups (though there are some).  Amarr are sometimes thought to be -- from one point of view -- the 'simplest' race to fly.  Breaking the mould may be more restrictive and less rewarding than it is when flying other races' ships; the opportunities are there but they are more skill intensive and require greater sacrifices.  New pilots are best served by playing to the Amarr formula until they know when to break the rules.
'''PvP'''


Exceptional tanks, large capacitors, and reliable damage and range make some Amarrian ships a firm favourite in armour fleets, though fits with shield tanks or alternate weapon systems also see some use. At the basic level, Amarr ships tend to stick to the formula of lots of armour for defence and lots of lasers for damage with fewer atypical ships than in other races' line-ups. As a result, Amarr are sometimes said to be the simplest race to fly. There are some good candidates for 'breaking the mould' even for a new player (a {{sh|Punisher}} fitted with projectile turrets is a classic), but they are more skill intensive and often require cross-training.


Cross training into or out of Amarr can be more skill intensive than other cross training. The most viable prospects are Gallente (armour tanking, gunnery and drone synergies) and then Minmatar (some gunnery and armour tanking synergies).  Caldari have the fewest skills in common (T2 Khanid missile ships excepted) and would require near-complete retraining.
In frigate hulls, the Punisher or Executioner are typically used for tackling, and the Crucifier for EW. The Arbitrator makes an excellent DPS-and-EWAR boat, the Omen is a focused damage-dealer, and the Maller's massive potential tank makes it great (if obvious) bait. In battleship hulls, the {{sh|Armageddon}}, {{sh|Apocalypse}}, and {{sh|Abaddon}} all have their uses.  The Apocalypse can be used as a sniper (sometimes with a very weak tank to maximize damage potential) and the Abaddon's bonus to armor resists grants it gigantic tank, making it one of the most survivable battleships when supported by [[Logistics|logistics]], although a combination of (relatively) weak capacitor and no cap use bonuses can make it power-hungry. The Armageddon's bonus to energy neutralizers makes it the best base T1 capacitor warfare platform in the game.

=Amarr Core Skills=
== Skills ==


The skills which are important to Amarr characters are the same skills which are crucial to any pilot who wants to maximize turret weapon damage, survive with an armor tank, and use drones effectively; all backed up by solid support skills. Here are the primary skills associated with this goal together with the specific emphasis for Amarr pilots if applicable for each of the skill categories:
Amarr ships share many core skills with the ships of the other three main factions. Very new pilots should consider EVE University's [[Short Skill Plan]]; relatively new pilots should consider [[The Magic 14|the 14 skills which affect every ship]], the [[Fitting skills|fitting skills]] which make it easier to fit modules onto ships, and the [[Support skills|support skills]] which underpin much of your ship's performance. For longer-term training, EVE University's [[Pyramid Skill Plan]] offers one useful way of conceiving of your goals.

That said, there are some considerations that are specific to Amarr ships. Capacitor skills are especially crucial for Amarr pilots, and should be an early priority; these are mostly found in the [[Skills:Engineering|Engineering]] category, though {{sk|Controlled Bursts}}, in Gunnery, is also very important. [[Skills:Armor|Armour]] skills will be essential for flying any Amarr combat ships, and being able to mount a T2 armour tank can help bring out the strengths of many T1 Amarr hulls in PvP and PvE. [[Skills:Drones|Drone skills]] are also important for any pilot taking the drone ship path through the Amarr ships, and eventually for an Amarr pilot: at around cruiser size, all Amarr ships begin being able to fly a full flight of 5 drones, making Drones V a highly desirable tain.


[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Item_Database:Skills:Drones Drones]
Cross training into or out of Amarr can be quite skill intensive. The easiest prospect is probably [[Gallente Basic Ship and Skill Overview|Gallente]], as the two ship lineups share armour tanking, gunnery, and drone synergies. A combination of Amarr and Gallente ship skills also opens up the popular [[Pirate_Faction_Ship_Overview#Servant_Sisters_of_EVE|Sisters of EVE ships]]. Pilots cross-trained for Caldari ships will be able to make good use of the niche set of T2 Amarr ships with missile bonuses.


The drone skills core to Amarr success are generally the same as those any pilot will want.

=== Corvette ===


Electronics skills contain a bit of a mix which are crucial for all pilots including fitting and targeting skills.
Little more than slower, armed shuttles, corvettes (or "noobships") are the basic frigates that new pilots start with. You can acquire a new corvette at no cost (together with a civilian weapon, a civilian mining laser, and one unit of Tritanium) by clicking on the "Board my corvette" button available in the station menu when you're docked up. On their own, corvettes are useful for little other than basic errand-running, though since the ship is free a corvette can be spawned as a makeshift small station container when no other containers are available.

=== Frigates ===
{{Ship|Crucifier|box}}
The Crucifier is the Amarr EWAR frigate and works great as an extremely cheap long range EWAR platform for very new pilots.  


Engineering has some of the most important capacitor skills and very important fitting skills.  Energy Managment and Energy Systems Operations are as close to mandatory for Amarr pilots as it gets in EVE.

{{Ship|Executioner|box}}
The Executioner is the Amarr fast frigate. The Executioner was buffed in the Inferno expansion, gaining an extra mid slot and a bonus to propulsion jamming so that it now resembles a T1 interceptor, making it a great stepping stone for new tacklers.


[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Item_Database:Skills:Gunnery Gunnery]


Gunnery is the home of everything damage dealing for turret users. All of the skills are important with first priority being with those that accentuate the distinct characteristics of lasers: high cap usage, excellent damage at range, decent tracking, huge optimal and small falloff ranges.

Magnates are a perfect platform to practice probing skills which will come in handy later both for exploration and PvP probing.




[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Item_Database:Skills:Leadership Leadership]
{{Ship|Punisher|box}}
* None
This is easily the most tenacious of the T1 frigates. Due to excellent armour HP together with the bonus to armour resistances and the 5 low slots, this platform can handle a surprising amount of damage for a T1 frigate. The Punisher's 4 turrets can give it decent dps, but its 2 Mid slots prevent it from fitting the [[Tackling_Guide|tackling]] trinity: a propulsion module, a point, and a web.




[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Item_Database:Skills:Learning Learning]
Along with the Executioner, the Punisher is a popular E-UNI tackler for new Amarr pilots. However, it does not excel at this role due to the limited mid slots, low base velocity, and mediocre scan resolution.


The Learning skills stand alone as extremely important to all and are well covered in other guides.
* Basic Learning Categories to Level 5
* Advanced Learning to Level 4


{{Ship|Tormentor|box}}
While lacking the resistance bonus of the Punisher, or the speed of the Executioner, the Tormentor makes a good middle ground; four low slots allow for a good armor tank, and the three medium slots allow for better tackling than the Punisher.


[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Item_Database:Skills:Mechanic Mechanic]


Mechanic skills are where the skills for armour tanking are found and are essential to anyone counting on their armour to keep them alive.

{{Ship|Dragoon|box}}
* None
The Dragoon was introduced in the Retribution expansion. It is a drone / ewar ship. It is the only T1 ship smaller than a battleship to have a bonus to energy neutralizer and energy vampire range, allowing it to have a very unique combat style.




[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Item_Database:Skills:Navigation Navigation]
=== Cruisers ===
{{Ship|Arbitrator|box}}
You can easily argue this is the most flexible and capable platform for Amarr T1 cruisers, and even make a strong case for it being the best T1 drone cruiser in the game. There are many effective configurations for both PvE and PvP with this ship.  


Navigation is another category that is not particularly more applicable to Amarr pilots than those of other races.  Note however, that some help reduce capacitor usage and accordingly have the second order effect of making more available for other purposes.

{{Ship|Augoror|box}}
The Augoror is the Amarr logistics cruiser. It is one of the two armor logistics cruisers, the other being the Gallente Exequror. While the Exequror is bonused for more of a solo role, the bonus to Energy Transfer amount on the Augoror means it works best when paired with one or more other logistics ships with an Energy Transfer bonus.


[http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Item_Database:Skills:Science Science]


Jump clones and implants are extremely important tools for any pilot.
{{Ship|Maller|box}}
<table class="collapsible collapsed">
The Maller was buffed in the Retribution patch to have a bonus to medium laser damage rather than a capacitor use bonus. It can obtain a good tank while retaining decent DPS. However, due to the lack of a capacitor use bonus, for PvE, an Omen might be a better choice for lower skilled players. The Maller is likely to become much more popular in PvP.

The Oracle is the Amarr Attack Battlecruiser, swapping the tank of most Battlecruisers for the ability to fit battleship-sized weaponry. This allows it to project heavy DPS while maintaining the agility of a battlecruiser.

{{Ship|Prophecy|box}}

The Prophecy is a Combat Battlecruiser that is primarily focused on being a tanky drone carrier.




=== Battleships ===
{{Ship|Abaddon|box}}
The Abaddon has a bonus for laser damage and armor resistances, but the normal bonus for laser capacitor use is conspicuously missing. This makes the Abaddon a "high skill" ship 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 Apocalypse has a bonus to optimal range that with the Amarr ability to switch crystals instantly can be turned into a damage bonus quite easily. Pulse laser Apocalypses with T2 Scorch ammunition are able to deliver good damage at a decent distance and the tracking bonus can allow it to hit smaller ships quite well. Apocalypses are also well suited to beam laser sniper fits, making the hull surprisingly versatile for any Amarr ship. The Apocalypse does not have the raw firepower of the Abaddon however but is an easier ship to skill for.


So what do these core skills mean?  If you went through them one by one and maxed them all out (except where noted), without any implants, learning skills first, it would take you 1165 days 16 hours and change as a brand new Amarr pilot.  Yes, that is a little over 3 years.  Yes, you would be the king of Amarr T1 pilots.  Yes, it would be very very silly.  However, if this is your first kick at the cat and you have no idea where to start you will not be wrong to start training ANY of the skills on this list and a well rounded Amarr pilot will end up with some degree of all of them over an average career.


===Basic Plan===
{{Ship|Armageddon|box}}
While previously all Amarr battleships were fairly similar, the Armageddon's new face makes it an entirely different beast. With the bonus to cap warfare range, the Armageddon is now the premier T1 neuting battleship, whilst still being able to put out a very respectable amount of DPS through its drones.


If you need more direction to have the time to get your feet under you this is a basic package you could train that will take you about a week to learn.  After that much time in E-Uni you will surely be well beyond the handholding stage and messing with [[3rd Party Tools|EVEmon]] and agonizing over skill training variances is half the fun of EVE.  This plan does not incorporate learning skills or maximize anything - rather it is a very basic intro that would leave you with a few skills to start discovering what you are actually interested in becoming:

Please do not waste time in Chat.E-UNI asking if it is okay to add in an extra skill from this skill plan you got off the wiki that you HAVE to follow as a new Amarr pilot.  The answer is YES.  Change, modify, ignore, follow to the letter - it does not really matter.  Pursue skills for the things you enjoy doing.  If you do train along this or a similar skill plan you can rest easy that there will not be any wasted SP as you make up your mind on what you want to do as an Amarr pilot in EVE.

=== Haulers ===
[[Haulers]] are useful to transport large amounts of cargo, but they are vulnerable to suicide ganks in highsec, and piracy in lowsec. For war time hauling, a hauling alt is recommended. See the [[Creating an Alt Hauler]] article for more information.


===[[Full T2 Tank|Tech 2 Tank]]===
{{Ship|Bestower|box}}
Arguably the best of the T1 haulers from a skill training time per cargo capacity perspective, the Bestower is a favourite for alternate character hauling setups. If only training an alt to the faction's hauler III, the Bestower has the highest capacity for less than 18 hours of training time. With the Odyssey expansion, it is only necessary to train to faction's hauler III instead of V on the way to faction's freighter I. Additionally, the removal of faction's frigate III as a requirement for Haulers means that any faction can select the Bestower as their hauler of choice on the way to becoming a freighter alt.


Here are the skills and prerequisites you will need to utilise a Tech 2 Armour Tank - something you will want to aspire to if you plan to PvP or Mission as an Amarr pilot.
{{Ship|Sigil|box}}
*Hull Upgrades V
Although lacking the cargo capacity of the [[Bestower]], it is significantly faster, more agile, and more flexible with five low slots that can be swapped between nanofibers, expanders, or warp core stabilizers as needed. It can easily be expanded to hold 8000 {{m3}}, the max needed for [[Making Money with Hauling - Level 4 Cargo Missions|running L4 distribution missions]], while still having three nanofibers for an under eight second align, or a nanofiber and a couple of stabs if the mission takes you into lowsec.
*Repair Systems IV
*Mechanic IV
*Jury Rigging III
*Armor Rigging I
You will want to learn the compensation skills to a minimum of 3 and eventually to 5 to maximize your tank.
*EM Armor Compensation
*Explosive Armor Compensation
*Kinetic Armor Compensation
*Thermic Armor Compensation


==Energy Turret Tips==
{{main|Turrets#Energy_turrets|Energy Turrets}}


===Tech 2 Energy Turrets===
Since ammo crystals can be swapped instantly, you should feel able to shift rapidly between crystals as the situation demands. You will want to swap crystals in and out to keep up with the ranges of your targets: lasers have little falloff range, which means little margin for error at the edge of your range. The Tech 1 crystals offer a three-way trade-off of range, damage, and capacitor use: short-ranged crystals do high DPS and are cap-hungry, long-ranged crystals do low DPS and are cap-hungry, and mid-ranged crystals do moderate DPS and are gentler on the capacitor.


Here are the skills and prerequisites you will need to utilise a Tech 2 Energy Turret - because that means more pew pew!
Tech 2 pulse laser crystals are widely liked and well worth using. Conflagration manages excellent DPS but will struggle to track evasive/fast targets. Scorch pushes pulse lasers out to truly impressive distances for a "short"-range weapon.


Each type of Energy Turret requires a specific specialization skill.  Note that each larger size specializations will incorporate the smaller size specialization with all its prerequisites. Here they are with applicable prerequisites:
Of the Tech 2 beam laser crystals, Gleam only offers a small boost over comparable faction ammo and see only limited use, but Aurora offers a massive range bonus and is popular for PvP sniping fits.

* Pulse Lasers
Small drones should be used against frigate-sized enemies, medium drones should be used against cruiser-sized enemies, and heavy drones should be used against battleship-sized enemies.  Sentries are mostly meant for battleship-sized enemies, but if smaller enemies are far enough that tracking and signature radius isn't an issue, they can deal relatively well with those too.

All four races' drones are viable in PvE and you should select drones that deal the damage type which your target NPCs are weakest.


<br>
Watch out for enemies attacking your drones. If you're in a dedicated drone boat and see your drones taking damage, recall them: they are your main weapon and you don't want to be defanged. In PvE combat, try to get the NPCs to attack you before you launch your drones.
<br>
<br>


=''Fittings''=
Keyboard / auxiliary mouse button shortcuts are recommended for drone management. Shortcuts can be set for attack and return to drone bay commands. One group of drones in the drone window can be designated as your "favorite", and a button can be assigned to the command "launch favorite group of drones".
<br>


=Rookie Ship=
In general, it is better to keep drones in Passive mode. In missions and wormholes, drones set to Aggressive can trigger a new wave earlier than desired. In PvP, drones set to Aggressive can give you an unwanted [[Timers#Weapon_Timer|weapon timer]] which then prevents you from docking up or jumping through a gate to safety.

This frigate is the speedy option with the highest base velocity of the Amarr T1 frigates at 404 m/s.  It also has high manoeuvrability and accordingly it can cruise around and align very quickly to bail out if required.  Its primary limitation is the 2 High, 2 Mid, and 2 Low slots (2/2/2) which limits the functionality and flexibility of this platform.  For just driving around fast, practicing skills that will come into play later on as an interceptor pilot, or system hopping as quickly as possible the Executioner is a great choice; it is not a good option for PvP or PvE for a new low SP pilot.

Thank goodness it is good looking as this is where a brand new Amarr pilot will spend the majority of his or her time.
 
This is easily the most survivable and tenacious of the T1 frigates available.  Due to decent shield and excellent armour HP together with the bonus to armour resistances and the 4 low slots, this platform can handle a surprising amount of damage for a T1 frigate.  It has 4 high (3 turret), 2 mid, 4 low slots (4/2/4).  It has the largest capacitor of a T1 frigate in order to keep its lasers firing.
 
This the E-Uni tackler for new Amarr pilots, but it does not excel at this role due to the limited mid slots and low base velocity.

The 8 high slots will cause a sharp intake of breath for a new player getting their first Coercer.  This firepower will make it an ideal platform for chewing through any Level 1 Mission.  The 4 low slots allow enough tank to accomplish this PvE task easily; however, it is limited by only having 1 mid slot compared to other destroyers. 
 
It fulfills a role as an early salvager capably, and this is probably the more enduring role as most players will likely outgrow its PvE uses quickly.  It can be used for Level 2 Missions, but this requires caution balanced against the knowledge and SP of the pilot and accordingly the fit.
 
Destroyers are not recommended for normal E-Uni PvP for new pilots.

*See forum post for options and discussion on this fit.  Note the various high slot set-ups and discussion on tank.
*I'd certainly recommend upgrading to meta 3/4 cap rechargers, guns, and armor repairer when your finances allow - named afterburners are a little pricey for my taste, and named armor hardeners/energized platings give you no benefit.
*Using mission-specific hardeners rather than EANMs will give you a stronger tank, but it's personal preference whether you take the time to swap.

This industrial only requires [http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Amarr_Industrial Amarr Industrial] trained to 1 to fly and accordingly it is very accessible to new pilots.  It is one of the fastest industrial haulers and has 5 low slots which can take advantage of this through fitting to get an align time much quicker than is normal for an industrial.  It is extremely fragile and even if tanked as much as possible it is very easy to suicide gank.  Typically there is no point fitting a tank at all because of this rather favouring speed or just extra cargo space.

{{Ship Intro|shipname=Bestower|shipinfo=''Special Ability: 5% Bonus Cargo Capacity and Max Velocity per Amarr Industrial skill level.''}}
Arguably the best of the racial industrials from a 'bang for your buck' perspective, and only requiring [http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Amarr_Industrial Amarr Industrial] trained to 1, the bestower is a favourite for alternate character hauling setups.  See [[Creating an Alt Hauler]] for details.
