==Summary==
== Summary ==
The Bellicose is the Minmatar EWAR cruiser, with bonuses to target painting and projectile turret rate of fire. It is a rare and unloved ship. Target painting is only vital in a few very specific situations (like a missile-ship-only fleet), and it can be done from unbonused midslots on normal combat ships. The Bellicose doesn't tank very well, has tight CPU and powergrid and a comparatively small capacitor. And, to top it all off, it only has three turret hardpoints, which limits the benefit of the rate of fire bonus. However, its reputation means that the Bellicose is rarely primary target and it can be a useful fleet support ship. It's not much use in PvE.
The Bellicose is the Minmatar [[electronic warfare]] cruiser: it has a bonus to the effectiveness of target painters.


==Skills==
Target painting is more situational in its usefulness than the other types of EWAR, and the [[Vigil]]'s target painters have a longer range than those of the Bellicose. However, the Bellicose is tougher and, like the Amarr [[Arbitrator]], the Bellicose has a secondary bonus for combat, in this case for the rate of fire of Light, Heavy and Heavy Assault Missile Launchers. In fact, the Bellicose is the only EWAR cruiser which can use its electronic warfare directly to assist its own bonused weapons, as well as its allies.
''Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Bellicose for a specific or it's common role(s) can be written here.''


==Fitting==
== Skills ==
{{Fittings
The Bellicose is an affordable and fairly forgiving ship, with relatively few specifically important skills; general [[support skills]] and [[fitting skills]] will help it. [[Skills:Missiles|Missile skills]] will help its bonused damage, while {{sk|Target Painting}} and {{sk|Signature Focusing}} directly benefit target painters.

Target painters assist all weapon systems, but are especially useful for missiles, and the Bellicose can particularly help fleets or gangs using lots of missiles. The Bellicose can be shield- or armour-tanked.

:''The Bellicose continues to have low usage as both an Ewar Platform and a Combat Cruiser. With the changes made to Rapid Light Missiles, we want to make sure there are strong Tech I options for going all-out with medium missiles. This is why we are increasing the speed and powergrid output of the Bellicose, to help it stand out more against the Caracal as a speedier alternative for shield setups and help enable armor setups.''
|recommended3=
 
|notes= *This fit is designed to support a fleet or gang by destroying enemy frigates (interceptors, Dramiels, assault frigates &c) or persuading them to run away.
* Max velocity increased from 240m/s to 260m/s (+20 m/s)
*You can still, however, tackle, paint and shoot targets of any size.
* Powergrid output increased from 700 MW to 780 MW (+80 MW)
*You may want to tell your squad commander (before the fleet leaves, not during battle!) that this is what your ship is fitted for and find out whether they want you to shoot/tackle the primary or use your own initiative and hunt enemy frigates.
 
*You will want to train Drones to IV or V to get as much value out of the large drone bay as possible by fielding a full or near-full flight of drones.

:''The Bellicose gets picked on a bit too much and so we’ll keep buffing it until it’s the toughest kid in school (probably kidding). While support cruisers aren’t expected to be that strong in combat, the bellicose was seeing very low use compared to other support cruiser options, so we want to lift it up a bit more by giving it a little more bite. Increase in drone bandwidth makes this the only Minmatar cruiser capable of supporting a full flight of medium drones.''
