The Atron is the Gallente fast frigate, although only having two mid slots makes it unloved for tackling in PvP despite its speed and high scan resolution. It can serve as a level 1 mission runner until Gallente Frigate III is trained for the Incursus and Destroyers I for the Catalyst. | The Atron is the Gallente fast frigate, although only having two mid slots makes it unloved for tackling in PvP despite its speed and high scan resolution.

The Navitas is the Gallente mining frigate. Compared to the Caldari mining frigate (considered the best racial mining frigate) it has a slightly smaller cargo bay. | The Navitas is the Gallente mining frigate.

The Incursus is the typical PvE and PvP frigate for Gallente players. It is faster and has a better scan resolution than the Tristan, which makes it better for tackling in PvP. It is also the only Gallente frigate with 3 turret slots. Turret fitted Incursus may deal more damage than a Tristan depending on missile skills. | The Incursus is the typical PvE and PvP frigate for Gallente players.

The Maulus is an electronic warfare frigate, specialized in dampening. Its low locking range makes it ineffective at range damping snipers. However, it can resolution damp effectively with the help of ECM in the fleet. | The Maulus is an electronic warfare frigate, specialized in dampening.

{{ | {{:Tristan|mode=box}} | ||
The Tristan is an excellent PvP frigate, but requires missile skills to use effectively, which many Gallente players will not train early in their career. It is also slower and has less scan resolution than the Incursus, making it slightly worse for a dedicated tackling role in fleets. | The Tristan is an excellent PvP frigate, but requires missile skills to use effectively, which many Gallente players will not train early in their career.

{{ | {{:Celestis|mode=box}} | ||
The Celestis is the Gallente EW cruiser. Damps have a poor optimal, and even in falloff, it has difficulty applying damps at typical sniper range. Although it can do well with range damping against mid-range snipers up to 100 km or so. Resolution damping is made much more useful with ECM on the field as well. | The Celestis is the Gallente EW cruiser.

The Exequror is the Gallente logistics cruiser. It is not often used in PvP. It has a cargo bay bonus which can make it useful as a hauler for players on trial accounts who cannot train industrial ships. An Exequror fitted with Expanded Cargohold in low slots can haul over 1000 m3 in its cargo bay. | The Exequror is the Gallente logistics cruiser. It is not often used in PvP.

The Vexor, like the Myrmidon and Dominix, is a drone boat. The vexor is an excellent mission ship, and it can also be a good PvP ship.

The mission Dominix fits are cap stable with Energy Management IV, Energy Systems Operation IV, Controlled Bursts III, and Fuel Conservation III (for the afterburner version). The single LAR tank version should be used in easier missions and the dual LAR in harder missions. Although as your skills increase and you become more familiar with L4 missions, you may want to set up some mission-specific fitting variants. Some people prefer heavy drones, other prefer sentries. Try both and upgrade whichever you prefer to Tech 2. If you use sentries, you should consider fitting some Omnidirectional Tracking Links in mid slots. | The mission Dominix fits are cap stable with Energy Management IV, Energy Systems Operation IV, Controlled Bursts III, and Fuel Conservation III (for the afterburner version).

The Hyperion is unloved by many. In battleship fleets, remote repping is far superior, making the local rep bonus pointless. For Uni operations, it might act as a decent bait ship during lowsec patrols for pilots with too much ISK on their hands. | The Hyperion is unloved by many.

The Megathron is one of the best player vs. player ships available to the Gallente. With his high amount of high slots and low slots, it can fit a sporty tank while dealing out a relatively high amount of DPS. Common setups for the Megathron include "Blaster"-throns and "Sniper"-throns, the former being a close range blaster fitted ship while the latter being a railgun fitted long range ship. | The Megathron is one of the best player vs. player ships available to the Gallente.
