==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.

:''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).

Being a highly versatile class of Minmatar ships, the Bellicose has been used as a combat juggernaut as well as a support ship for wings of frigates. While not quite in the league of newer navy cruisers, the Bellicose is still a very solid ship for most purposes, especially in terms of long range combat.

5% bonus to Rapid Light Missile, Heavy Missile and Heavy Assault Missile Launcher rate of fire
7.5% bonus to Target Painter effectiveness

Summary

The Bellicose is the Minmatar electronic warfare cruiser: it has a bonus to the effectiveness of target painters.

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.

Skills

The Bellicose is an affordable and fairly forgiving ship, with relatively few specifically important skills; general support skills and fitting skills will help it. Missile skills will help its bonused damage, while Target Painting and Signature Focusing directly benefit target painters.

Tactics

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.

Notes

Bellicose is an adjective meaning "warlike" or "fierce".
