− | '' | + | The '''Vargur''' is the Minmatar [[Marauder]]-class battleship. Like the other Marauders, the Vargur has a very strong local tank, large number of utility high slots, is bonused for [[Propulsion equipment#Micro Jump Drives|Micro Jump Drive]], and can use the bastion module. |
+ | |||
+ | The Vargur, together with the Golem, can fit the thickest active tank in the game for any sub-capital ship, able to use an x-large shield booster, the bastion module, and the shield boost amplifier module to field an active shield tank of upwards of 600 hp/sec along with 75%+ global shield resists. The true beauty of the Vargur's tank, though, is that unlike the armor marauders, the Vargur can actually still be cap stable while tanking at that level. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Vargur gains 10% bonus to its projectile weapon falloff per {{sk|Minmatar Battleship}} level. As this is a T2 ship you won't be able to fly it without receiving the full 50% falloff bonus. This bonus gives the Vargur even greater range than [[Machariel]] at max level allowing the Vargur to use autocannons at unparalleled ranges. Additionally, the Vargur gains a powerful 7.5% tracking bonus per {{sk|Marauders}} level allowing it to apply damage even at close range with ease. Together these two bonuses make the Vargur able to engage targets at a very wide range of distances. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In addition to strong application bonuses, the Vargur also gains a 100% hull bonus for weapon damage making its four guns equal to the eight guns that battleships usually have. In addition to this, the Vargur gains 7.5% damage bonus per {{sk|Minmatar Battleship}} level, giving it 11 effective guns, which is then ''doubled'' by the [[Bastion Module]] up to 22 effective guns. | ||
+ | |||
+ | As with all Marauders, the Vargur gains 70% reduced reactivation delay for Micro Jump Drives (resulting in a 54s cooldown on the module), which allows the Vargur to move surprisingly quickly, traveling to any location within 200 km in about a minute. However, jump directions must still be planned and executed correctly, as once a jump is made the Vargur is effectively stuck there until its drive recharges. The micro jump drive allows the Vargur to be surprisingly mobile, as the reactivation delay bonus allows it to effectively move at an astonishing 1700 m/s, rivaling the Machariel for speed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Also as with all Marauders, the Vargur gains access to the Bastion Module, which when activated immobilizes the Vargur for 60 seconds and blocks any incoming remote assistance (such as remote repairs), but gives increased range, enormously increased fire rate, additional damage resistance and additional local repair power. The combination of Bastion, Micro Jump Drive, and aforementioned tracking and falloff bonuses allows the Vargur to function as a massive turret that can teleport to any engagement range it wishes, output enormous amounts of damage with high accuracy, absorb and shrug off incoming fire, and then teleport out again before slower enemies can even get into range. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The less combat oriented 100% bonus to tractor beam range and velocity allows the Vargur to quickly loot wrecks and containers, combined with utility high slots this allows the Vargur to loot and salvage missions on the fly. | ||

These traits make the Vargur the undisputed king of solo PVE. However, in fleet PVE such as [[Incursions]], [[Stronghold]]s, and nullsec PVP, the Vargur is mostly passed over because it is a shield ship and because it lacks the ridiculous range of the Paladin and the high damage of the Kronos.

Summary
The Vargur is the Minmatar Marauder-class battleship. Like the other Marauders, the Vargur has a very strong local tank, large number of utility high slots, is bonused for Micro Jump Drive, and can use the bastion module.
The Vargur, together with the Golem, can fit the thickest active tank in the game for any sub-capital ship, able to use an x-large shield booster, the bastion module, and the shield boost amplifier module to field an active shield tank of upwards of 600 hp/sec along with 75%+ global shield resists. The true beauty of the Vargur's tank, though, is that unlike the armor marauders, the Vargur can actually still be cap stable while tanking at that level.
The Vargur gains 10% bonus to its projectile weapon falloff per Minmatar Battleship level. As this is a T2 ship you won't be able to fly it without receiving the full 50% falloff bonus. This bonus gives the Vargur even greater range than Machariel at max level allowing the Vargur to use autocannons at unparalleled ranges. Additionally, the Vargur gains a powerful 7.5% tracking bonus per Marauders level allowing it to apply damage even at close range with ease. Together these two bonuses make the Vargur able to engage targets at a very wide range of distances.
In addition to strong application bonuses, the Vargur also gains a 100% hull bonus for weapon damage making its four guns equal to the eight guns that battleships usually have. In addition to this, the Vargur gains 7.5% damage bonus per Minmatar Battleship level, giving it 11 effective guns, which is then doubled by the Bastion Module up to 22 effective guns.
As with all Marauders, the Vargur gains 70% reduced reactivation delay for Micro Jump Drives (resulting in a 54s cooldown on the module), which allows the Vargur to move surprisingly quickly, traveling to any location within 200 km in about a minute. However, jump directions must still be planned and executed correctly, as once a jump is made the Vargur is effectively stuck there until its drive recharges. The micro jump drive allows the Vargur to be surprisingly mobile, as the reactivation delay bonus allows it to effectively move at an astonishing 1700 m/s, rivaling the Machariel for speed.
Also as with all Marauders, the Vargur gains access to the Bastion Module, which when activated immobilizes the Vargur for 60 seconds and blocks any incoming remote assistance (such as remote repairs), but gives increased range, enormously increased fire rate, additional damage resistance and additional local repair power. The combination of Bastion, Micro Jump Drive, and aforementioned tracking and falloff bonuses allows the Vargur to function as a massive turret that can teleport to any engagement range it wishes, output enormous amounts of damage with high accuracy, absorb and shrug off incoming fire, and then teleport out again before slower enemies can even get into range.
The less combat oriented 100% bonus to tractor beam range and velocity allows the Vargur to quickly loot wrecks and containers, combined with utility high slots this allows the Vargur to loot and salvage missions on the fly.
Skills
Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Vargur for a specific or its common role(s) can be written here.
Tactics
The Vargur is very much a "Goldilocks" Marauder in between the Kronos and Paladin with its balance of range and damage. The Kronos out-damages the Vargur and the Paladin outranges it, but the Vargur can still project 1800+ DPS out to a very respectable 40km. The Vargur also has better tracking than either of them. The Varugr's 6-5 slot layout also allows it to fit a cap-stable 400+ hp/sec active shield tank with high resists, something that the Kronos and Paladin cannot achieve with armor repairs. These traits make the Vargur the undisputed king of solo PVE. However, in fleet PVE such as Incursions, Strongholds, and nullsec PVP, the Vargur is mostly passed over because it is a shield ship and because it lacks the ridiculous range of the Paladin and the high damage of the Kronos. The Vargur does see some use as an extremely expensive solo PVP ship in lowsec, where it is often fit with multiple X-Large Ancillary shield boosters to shrug off ridiculous amounts of damage for a short amount of time.
Notes
In modern Icelandic, vargur means "wolf". The word is used for wolves in general, and as a metaphor for a hot-head, but has historical associations with the mythological wolves Fenrir, Sköll, and Hati. Present-day English speakers might be more familiar with the Anglicized form warg, popularized by J. R. R. Tolkien.
