| info=The Velator class corvette is one of the older vessel types in the Gallente fleet.

The Velator is still a very solid mining and trading vessel. | |||

==Summary== | == Summary == | ||
The Velator is the Gallente | The Velator is the Gallente [[Corvette]]. This ship is given free of charge to Gallente players who click on the "Board my Corvette" button while docked in a station. It has no blueprint and can not be manufactured or reprocessed. | ||
As with all Corvettes, the Velator is a cheap and disposable hull, but is outclassed in every regard by almost any other player-piloted ship. Gallente pilots wishing to advance into different hulls may want to upgrade to one of the following depending on their preferred piloting style: | |||
* Pilots focusing primarily on drones may find the {{sh|Tristan}} to be an effective replacement. | |||
* For pilots more interested in hybrid turrets, the {{sh|Incursus}} is a good choice. | |||
* For pilots looking to work with a fleet in a [[tackle]] role, the {{sh|Atron}} will likely be the next step. | |||
* For pilots aspiring to be proficient at [[exploration]], the {{sh|Imicus}} exploration frigate is an excellent tool for the job. | |||
* For pilots interested in supporting fleets by using [[Electronic warfare|Sensor Dampeners]] on enemy ships, the {{sh|Maulus}} is a useful ship. | |||
* Last but not least, the {{sh|Navitas}} offers powerful remote repair capabilities to those who prefer to [[Logistics|aid their allies]] instead of dealing damage themselves. | |||

The Velator is meant to be flown right from character creation - as such no real skills are "required" to pilot it, and by the time you've trained some early skills, you'll likely have acquired several better ships through the career agents. | The Velator is meant to be flown right from character creation - as such no real skills are "required" to pilot it, and by the time you've trained some early skills, you'll likely have acquired several better ships through the [[career agents]]. | ||
== | == Tactics == | ||
The Velator has a quiet, rarely-noticed advantage over the other corvettes: it has double the drone capacity and drone bandwidth. This gives it a possible advantage in the extremely niche situation of pre-agreed corvette battles. It can field two light scout drones, or one medium drone. | |||
