The Scythe is a Tech 1 [[logistics]] cruiser, with bonuses to shield repair. It is designed to support 3 medium shield transporters and a shield tank while remaining capacitor-stable. Achieving all of these things can be a challenge for pilots with limited skills.
The Scythe is a Tech 1 [[logistics]] cruiser, with bonuses to shield repair. It is designed to support 3 medium shield transporters and a shield tank while remaining capacitor-stable. Achieving all of these things can be a challenge for pilots with limited skills.


Like its smaller counterpart the [[Burst]], the Scythe offers pilots a good way to try out flying in the logistics role. The same player (not character) skills of organisation, quick reactions and steadiness under fire are used in piloting the Scythe's more powerful T2 equivalent, the [[Scimitar]].

With decent character skills, the Scythe can run cap-stable, supporting its fleetmates successfully without capacitor transfer from other logistics ships. This makes it a more convenient ship for fast-response fleets scrambling to form up quickly to defend a system or leap on a target of opportunity, when there is less time to organise a "chain" of mutual capacitor transfers. This fast "grab-and-launch" quality synergizes well with shield logistics, as the fits used for fast-moving gangs often have buffer shield tanks.

The Scythe's capacitor-independent nature does ''not'' make it a solo logistics ship. Scythe pilots should work as a team to save ships and to keep each other alive. Depending on the size and type of fleet, logistics ships will be coordinated using watchlists and/or broadcasts and/or a logistics squad commander who will call out logistics targets.
