==Summary==
== Summary ==
Resembling a cross between a brick and a rusty nailgun, the Rupture is the Minmatar Republic's heavy combat cruiser, and a very popular ship for both mission running and pvp despite being quite sluggish for a Minmatar design. It can mount a good active armour tank or regenerating passive shield tank (as below) and use artillery and drones to destroy mission rats from range. The Rupture is also a strong PvP ship. A number of fittings work well; in E-Uni fleets the most common approach is to fit an armour buffer tank (as below) and provide extra DPS and some sticky secondary tackle. Strong fitting skills and access to T2 autocannon (for kiting with Barrage ammo) open up some fast-moving shield-tanked PvP fits, which, oddly, work rather better in that role than the Stabber.

*'''[[Skills:Spaceship Command#Minmatar Cruiser|Minmatar Cruiser]]''' to at least IV to properly take advantage of the Rupture's DPS buff that comes with every extra level in the skill.
As a Tech 1 cruiser and one of the first steps that new players take out of small ships into medium-sized hulls, the Rupture is relatively forgiving, and can perform adequately in undemanding roles with limited character skills. Players can get much more out of the Rupture with better skills, however. Some basic skills to focus on in the short term for new pilots are:
*'''[[Skills:Gunnery#Gunnery|Gunnery V]]''', '''[[Skills:Gunnery#Medium Projectile Turret|Medium Projectile Turret V]]''' and '''[[Skills:Gunnery#Medium Autocannon Specialization|Medium Autocannon Specialization]]'''/'''[[Skills:Gunnery#Medium Artillery Specialization|Medium Artillery Specialization]]''' trained to at least I to fit T2 guns, which do more damage and are substantially cheaper than the meta 4 variants, along with the ability to use T2 ammo types.
*'''[[Skills:Gunnery#Rapid_Firing|Rapid Firing]]''', '''[[Skills:Gunnery#Surgical_Strike|Surgical Strike]]''', skills which increase DPS and are thus vital to all turret-based damage dealing ships, should all be trained to at least IV.
*Along with the obvious '''[[Skills:Engineering#Power Grid Management|Power Grid Management]]''' and '''[[Skills:Engineering#CPU Management|CPU Management]]''' fitting skills required for fitting most ships, '''[[Skills:Engineering#Weapon Upgrades|Weapon Upgrades]]''' and '''[[Skills:Engineering#Advanced Weapon Upgrades|Advanced Weapon Upgrades]]''' should be trained to V and at least II respectively to help alleviate fitting problems associated with the ship's powergrid.
*'''[[Skills:Gunnery#Sharpshooter|Sharpshooter]]''' is important for artillery fitted Ruptures, though due to autocannons' small optimals it isn't as important for autocannon fits.
*'''[[Skills:Drones#Drones|Drones V]], [[Skills:Drones#Light Drone Operation|Light Drone Operation V]], [[Skills:Drones#Drone Interfacing|Drone Interfacing IV]] and [[Skills:Drones#Gallente Drone Operation|Gallente Drone Operation I]]/[[Skills:Drones#Minmatar Drone Operation|Minmatar Drone Operation I]]''' are all are important for getting as much DPS out of the 30m<sup>3</sup> dronebay as possible.
*The appropriate skills required for fitting a '''[[Full T2 Tank|Full T2]]''' '''[[Full_T2_Tank#Armor_Tank|Armour]]''' or '''[[Full_T2_Tank#Shield_Tank|Shield]]''' '''[[Tank#Tank|Tank]]'''.

''No sub-article about Rupture roles or piloting tactics. You can write them here.''
* [[Skills:Gunnery#Support Skills|Gunnery support skills]] to help turrets deal more damage at longer ranges, and track targets more accurately. {{sk|Sharpshooter}} is less important for autocannon but still helps artillery. {{sk|Controlled Bursts}} is not relevant to projectile turrets, as they don't use capacitor to fire.
* [[Fitting skills]]: squeezing everything onto a ship becomes more challenging as players move up to cruisers and unlock more advanced modules.
* In the Minmatar ship line, the step up to cruisers is the point at which pilots begin to have large enough drone bays to field a full flight of drones. This makes training {{sk|Drones}} to V an early priority, together with at least basic levels in drone support skills. Drones V is a relatively long train for a new character, but will be useful in many ships.

==Patch History==
== Tactics ==
'''PvE'''
 
In Level 2 missions, the Rupture can mount a good active armour tank or regenerating passive shield tank and use artillery and drones to destroy rats at long range. The Rupture can launch a full flight of five light drones with space for a few spares, or a mixed-size flight of mediums and lights, which will be a new feature for pilots stepping up from PvE in Minmatar destroyers.
 
'''PvP'''
 
The Rupture is also a reliable PvP ship. A simple and viable approach is to fit a buffer armour tank and autocannon, and provide extra DPS and some sticky secondary tackle in fleet situations. Armour-tanked autocannon Ruptures also synergize well with armour [[logistics]] support, and crop up frequently as one option in "brawling" [[doctrines]].
 
A buffer shield tank produces a faster, more tactically-flexible ship with space for speed- and damage-boosting modules in its low slots. A shield-tanked Rupture has strong DPS and a bit more ability to choose its fights. On the other hand, the ship has fewer mid slots, and so a shield tank usually means fewer effective hitpoints than an armour tank, and requires compromises on other utility modules. The [[Stabber]], with its falloff range bonus and higher base speed, is the archetypal Tech 1 Minmatar kiting cruiser.

'''Version 25.01 - 2025-05-27''' - ''Legion'' ([https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/legion-expansion-notes Patch Notes])
''The Rupture felt too similar to the Stabber and was overshadowed by it in most cases, despite having two damage bonuses it actually dealt less DPS overall than the Stabber since the Stabber has a falloff bonus and the Stabber also had an additional missile hardpoint. So we’re slightly reworking the Rupture by replacing the projectile rate of fire bonus with a tracking bonus, and rolling the rate of fire damage bonus into the direct damage bonus it has. This should make the Rupture a more viable alternative to the Stabber when comparing short range AutoCannon fits by giving it a tracking advantage when brawling and improves on the existing strength that it had with artillery fits by improving the alpha and giving it a tracking bonus.''

Summary

Resembling a cross between a brick and a rusty nailgun, the Rupture is the Minmatar Republic's heavy combat cruiser, and a popular ship for both mission running and PvP despite being quite sluggish for a Minmatar design.

Skills

As a Tech 1 cruiser and one of the first steps that new players take out of small ships into medium-sized hulls, the Rupture is relatively forgiving, and can perform adequately in undemanding roles with limited character skills. Players can get much more out of the Rupture with better skills, however. Some basic skills to focus on in the short term for new pilots are:

  • Minmatar Cruiser to IV: with two DPS bonuses, the Rupture's damage potential jumps dramatically with each level of this skill
  • Gunnery support skills to help turrets deal more damage at longer ranges, and track targets more accurately. Sharpshooter is less important for autocannon but still helps artillery. Controlled Bursts is not relevant to projectile turrets, as they don't use capacitor to fire.
  • Fitting skills: squeezing everything onto a ship becomes more challenging as players move up to cruisers and unlock more advanced modules.
  • In the Minmatar ship line, the step up to cruisers is the point at which pilots begin to have large enough drone bays to field a full flight of drones. This makes training Drones to V an early priority, together with at least basic levels in drone support skills. Drones V is a relatively long train for a new character, but will be useful in many ships.

In the longer term, the Rupture, like many ships, will benefit from the skills necessary to fit Tech 2 tanking modules, and the skills necessary to fit Tech 2 autocannon and Tech 2 artillery pieces, unlocking Tech 2 ammo for more tactical flexibility.

Tactics

PvE

In Level 2 missions, the Rupture can mount a good active armour tank or regenerating passive shield tank and use artillery and drones to destroy rats at long range. The Rupture can launch a full flight of five light drones with space for a few spares, or a mixed-size flight of mediums and lights, which will be a new feature for pilots stepping up from PvE in Minmatar destroyers.

PvP

The Rupture is also a reliable PvP ship. A simple and viable approach is to fit a buffer armour tank and autocannon, and provide extra DPS and some sticky secondary tackle in fleet situations. Armour-tanked autocannon Ruptures also synergize well with armour logistics support, and crop up frequently as one option in "brawling" doctrines.

A buffer shield tank produces a faster, more tactically-flexible ship with space for speed- and damage-boosting modules in its low slots. A shield-tanked Rupture has strong DPS and a bit more ability to choose its fights. On the other hand, the ship has fewer mid slots, and so a shield tank usually means fewer effective hitpoints than an armour tank, and requires compromises on other utility modules. The Stabber, with its falloff range bonus and higher base speed, is the archetypal Tech 1 Minmatar kiting cruiser.

Notes

In the Retribution patch, the Rupture lost one launcher/utility hardpoint and gained a mid slot.
