Punisher: Difference between revisions

Line 81:

With its many low slots for armor tank and a bonus to armor resistances, the Punisher is known as the toughest T1 frigate around, but one that won't win any speed races. It is hampered in the tackling role by only having 2 mid slots, meaning it can only fit a single tackle module alongside the obligatory propulsion module, but if a tank fitted Punisher gets in to scram range of you then it takes a lot of effort to get rid of it again.

Prior to the Inferno patch, the Punisher had a bonus to energy weapon capacitor, but not to damage, which resulted in some of the more effective setups using autocannons instead of lasers, freeing up more cap for armour repairs and other active modules at a minimal DPS loss (considering all lvl5 skills). Now a clear tradeoff can to be made between damage and cap drain, with both laser based and autocannon based fits being ~~equaly~~ viable.

With its damage bonus, tank bonus and 3 turrets the Punisher is a clear winner among the Amarr T1 frigates for the purpose of mission running.
