Summary
This Combat Recon is the undisputed king of capacitor warfare. Its range bonuses allow its hefty neuting capacity to reach out to an obscene range. This synergizes well with the standard Amarr TD bonus allowing excellent mitigation of any turret boat DPS, and the standard drone bonus gives cap free, high slot free, selectable and flexible DPS/utility. Expect to be called primary in this ship when flying in gangs; this ship is universally recognized as a huge force multiplier. No one wants to fight a Curse solo as the various advantages allows control of the fight to stay within grasp of a decent Curse pilot, and no one likes feeling useless and impotent for the duration of a fight.
The most common flavour is a shield tanked curse due to the six mid slots and the desire to be able to have the flexibilty of speed and the ability to range. Armour Curses are ridiculed by some but as gang support, backed up with Guardian logistics, they are incredible additions to the capabilities of the fleet. Curses are a great counter to logistics chains, both for RRBS and logistics ships themselves, and the added pressure of their neuts can mitigate or neutralize any practical cap transfer setup.
This is a ship that really needs its applicable command skill to V to be fully functional.

- A fit intended to focus on Cap Warfare at the expense of damage.
- Will drain about 114 GJ/s of capacitor. Most battlecruiser and below will get drained within 30 or 40 s
- Damage is done exclusively with drones. The drone bay is big enough to carry 2 full flights of medium and small drones. The combination on the left works well.
- As fitted, with all skills at V and before boost, this Curse has 29.5 K EHP, will fly at 1600 m/s (2050 overheated) and will align in 10.2 s with MWD on. Damage is about 400 dps with 5 Hammerhead II drones.
- The Curse will drain 114 GJ/s from a range of 37.8 km
- The Tracking Disruptor is used to keep your drones alive. With a TD and a Tracking Speed Disruptor Script on, most ships will never be able to kill your drones. An Optimal Range script can also be used to minimize damage done to you.
