Summary
The Retribution is the Amarr laser assault frigate, sibling to the missile-hurling Vengeance. Two laser DPS bonuses and a range bonus mean that it hits very hard for a frigate-sized hull. It lacks the Vengeance's armor resistance bonus, but it can still mount a significant tank, aided by the Assault Damage Control module if an extraordinary resistance burst is necessary. With many low slots, it can be fitted to maximize damage or armor tank, or even for speed and agility. On the other hand its limited mid slots—one of the 2 available will typically be occupied by a propulsion module—restrict the amount of tackle or utility modules it can carry. It also has a relatively limited cargo hold.
The Retribution finds use in PvE as a small, tough ship which punches above its weight, for use in sites or types of space where larger ships might be more vulnerable or simply cannot enter. In PvP it is an excellent choice for armor-tanked gangs of small ships, especially when supported by remote armor repair logistics ships such as the Deacon, and it can also be flown solo.
Skills
Like any Tech 2 ship, the Retribution benefits from strong support skills and fitting skills. Armor tanking skills and energy turret skills are particularly relevant, and the ship really deserves Tech 2 turrets.
Tactics
In PvE combat, the Retribution normally fits a local active armor tank. An afterburner helps the ship tank damage; a dual-propulsion fit with both an afterburner and a MWD imposes a penalty on the capacitor but can finish sites rapidly by switching between tanking and MWD movement around wrecks, gates &c.
For gang PvP with logistics support, the Retribution needs a moderate armor buffer and strong resistances. Unable to fit all three of propulsion, point/scram, and web, it must rely on fleetmates for help with controlling the enemy, but it will deliver strong DPS. If operating without logistics support, a Retribution can fit local armor repair (usually ancillary) or pure buffer and resists. If flying solo against other small ships, it is also possible to fit nanofiber internal structures in some of the low slots for a surprisingly fast kiting ship. Again, only two mid slots means that the Retribution can never fit full control modules, but when kiting the ship's range bonus for lasers synergizes well with Tech 2 Scorch crystals, which can boost small lasers' optimal range out beyond 15 km with good skills.

February Balance Update - 29.01.18 We are giving Assault Frigates a substantial balance pass. Every AF is getting a speed boost in the form of increased max velocity and lowered mass. Every AF is also getting base capacitor numbers increased by approximately 30%. Also, we have more significant changes for the Ishkur, Retribution, and Jaguar.
