==Summary==
== Summary ==
The '''Dominix''' (aka '''Domi''') is the one of two T1 battleship drone carriers, with a bonus to drone damage and hit points. It has the 125mb bandwidth required to field a full flight of heavy or sentry drones (which is not unique among t1 battleships) and a 375m<sup>3</sup> drone bay large enough to carry several flights of heavies, sentries, mediums and/or lights. The Dominix's ability to choose damage types by switching drones makes it an attractive level 4 mission runner. With its 5 mid slots and 7 low slots, the Dominix is normally armor tanked. Compared to the Amarrian [[Armageddon]], the Dominix has bonuses towards drone tracking and optimal - this helps a little with normal drones, but is most useful when using sentry drones.
The '''Dominix''' (or "Domi") is an iconic droneboat with a bonus to drone damage and hit points. It is the fifth entry in the Gallente line of droneboats, after the [[Tristan]], [[Algos]], [[Vexor]], and [[Myrmidon]].
It has the 125Mb bandwidth required to field a full flight of heavy or sentry drones and a 375m³ drone bay large enough to carry several flights of differently sized drones. This provides pilots with either flexibility in choosing drones, or the ability to replace lost drones when opponents are destroying them. Flexibility is generally the theme for the Dominix, which is open to many types of fitting.
 
In PvP, Dominixes are typically flown solo PvP or in small fleets (often, if in small fleets, using remote repairers to support each other).
 
The Dominix is also used for various kinds of PvE combat. It can run nullsec anomalies where the drones automatically aggro the NPCs, but it is also a popular choice for running Level 4 missions. The Dominix outcompetes the other Tech 1 drone battleship, the [[Armageddon]], in this role, as it has bonuses to drone tracking and range that the Armageddon lacks.
 
== Skills ==
''Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Dominix for a specific or its common role(s) can be written here.''


Since Dominixes get a lot of their damage from drones, some high slots are often used for utility modules instead of weapons. One or two drone link augmentors will be required to make the most of the Dominix's maximum range with sentries. Remote repair Dominixes are also common. The Dominix lacks a bonus towards any particular type of weapon, so which guns (if any) are fitted are up to the pilot's taste. This flexibility, along with the ability to carry utility drones such as EWAR or repair, and the low price, also make the Dominix a popular pick for PvP. For capacitor warfare, however, the [[Armageddon]] has better bonuses towards it.
== Tactics ==


The Dominix is sometimes humorously called the "Space Potato" because of its squat and round appearance.
'''PvP'''


==Skills==
As most of the ship's DPS stems from the drones, the high slots can be used in many ways. Turrets can make a Dominix into an absolute DPS machine. With no bonuses for a particular turret type, projectile turrets are a popular option, as they use no capacitor and allow damage selection.
''Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Dominix for a specific or it's common role(s) can be written here.''


==Fitting==
Remote reps are a popular high slot choice for small groups of Domis, which can then collectively repair whichever member is targeted. Energy neutralizers for [[capacitor warfare]] are obviously also helpful. A drone link augmentor can usefully increase the drone control range.
For more info on fittings, please go [[Dominix/Fittings|here]]


==Tactics==
The Dominix is also flexible in its tank. It is most commonly armor-tanked, either buffer or active. It also has many hull hitpoints, making a hull tank viable. In some cases Domis are even shield-tanked.
''No sub-article about Dominix roles or piloting tactics. You can write them here.''


==Notes==
'''PvE'''
Don't forget when using Sentry Drones that without enough drone control range it is not possible to order the Sentry Drones to fire, even if the enemy ship can be locked. Example: locking range:130km; Sentry Drone optimal range:100km; drone control range: 50km. Result: Sentry Drones cannot be ordered to fire on enemy ships that are farther than 50km away from your ship.


==Patch History==
Domis in missions often use sentries and an MJD to snipe the NPCs from a distance, but fits based on heavy drones are also viable.
