The Vexor is especially useful for surveying in potentially hostile sectors as it can stay on duty for a very long time before having to return to base.

The Vexor is a dedicated drone boat. It has 75mb of drone bandwidth, allowing it to field a mixed flight of medium and heavy drones at a time, and has the drone bay to carry a few replacements or an additional flight of light drones. This gives the Vexor great flexibility for long roams, where it can carry a full flight of medium and light damage drones, as well as a flight of light repair or EWAR drones to deploy as the situation dictates. While the Vexor has a bonus to hybrid guns, this can be ignored if desired due to a large amount of the Vexor's DPS coming from drones anyway, and Vexors with autocannons, nosferatu and/or neutralisers are common. With 4 mids and 5 lows Vexors are most often armor tanked. | The Vexor is a dedicated drone boat.

By using a Salvager, a Small Tractor Beam, a Drone Link Augmentor and a single Hybrid Turret (to draw aggro) in the high slots a moderately drone-skilled capsuleer can securely complete level 2 missions while salvaging. Salvaging level 2 missions is debatably profitable however the salvage/mission fit Vexor can complete level 2s in respectable time when compared to a straight mission fit Vexor. | ||
Among T1 cruisers the Vexor is a little more skill demanding than the [[Thorax]]. In particular, you should not get a Vexor unless you have ''at least'' Drones 4 and should make getting Drones 5 a high priority. | Among T1 cruisers the Vexor is a little more skill demanding than the [[Thorax]].
