| ==Summary== | | == Summary == |
| The Rifter is the primary damage frigate for Minmatar. For tackling a [[Slasher]] or [[Merlin]] is by far better. While the Rifter used to be considered the best T1 frigate (leading to many memes surrounding it), it has been nerfed to be similar in abilities to the others. | | The '''Rifter''' is the primary Minmatar damage-dealing frigate. For [[tackling]], a [[Slasher]] is a safer bet, as it has tackling bonuses. |
|
| |
|
| ==Skills== | | == Skills == |
| ''Further information about additional or recommended skills to pilot Rifter for a specific or it's common role(s) can be written here.''
| | As a basic Tech 1 frigate, the Rifter is a forgiving and undemanding ship. New pilots will get more out of it, though, if they train at least a few levels of relevant [[Skills:Gunnery|gunnery skills]] to back up its bonuses for projectile turrets. |
|
| |
|
| ==Fitting== | | == Tactics == |
| | The Rifter is not an outstanding frigate, but it does have a balanced 3/3/4 slot layout, which allows pilots some tactical flexibility. |

| -->{{ShipFitting| | | With no need to tackle the kind of enemies faced in new-player PvE combat and Level 1 missions, Rifter pilots can try mounting a small shield tank and putting a Damage Control and Gyrostabilizers (for more damage) in the low slots. The Rifter is a perfectly good ship for most or all Level 1 mission work, but pilots will probably soon move on from the Rifter to the [[Thrasher]] and then (for Level 2 missions) the [[Rupture]]. |

|
| ==Tactics==
| | '''PvP''' |
| For Tackling in a Rifter, spiraling is key. The ship is agile and fast enough that a pilot can use a standard spiral with a MWD. The only concern will be on final approach (30 km or so) to pulse the MWD so that the increased signature radius doesn't come in to play as much. If the ship is AB fit, the pilot may consider tightening the Spiral slightly, risking a little more (but still tankable) damage in order to decrease closing time.
| |
|
| |
|
| Both of these techniques are elaborated in the '' [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Tackling_101_Guide EVE uni guide to tackling]
| | The Rifter sees some use in small-scale Faction Warfare battles. With its speed and its falloff bonus (and especially with T2 autocannon, which can use the falloff-boosting Barrage ammo), the Rifter can try to kite at the edge of warp scrambler range. Artillery fits are a squeeze, but can attempt kiting beyond scram range and within point range. |
|
| |
|
| ==Roles==
| | In PvP fleets, the Rifter is not a bad choice for a new Minmatar character who wants to bring some small-sized DPS to the table, but it is worth checking with your FC whether or not a tackling Slasher might offer more utility to the fleet. |
|
| |
|
| ===Solo PVP=== | | == Notes == |
| | For more than a decade of Eve Online's history, the Rifter was the best of all Tech 1 frigates, highly popular for solo PvP and for cheap, low-SP "swarm" fleets. It was regarded as "EVE's AK-47": an affordable and reliable weapon wielded by many. This popularity, and perhaps its iconic silhouette when seen from above, gave it pride of place in publicity material and player memes. |
|
| |
|
| | Since a major frigate rebalancing in the middle of the 2010s, the Rifter has become a significantly weaker ship, and one seen much less often in PvP. Its iconic silhouette is still used in game for the [[Fitting ships|fitting]] window icon and the cargo hold button within the Fitting window, however, and outside the game itself a picture of the Rifter is used as the icon for the popular third-party fitting tool [[PYFA]]. |
|
| |
|
| The Rifter is an excellent ship for rookie pilots to learn their trade in due to the ship's endurance and it's low cost.
| | More recently, the 2022 Uprising expansion has attempted to breathe new life into the Rifter with an increase to its firerate with small projectile turrets. |
|
| |
|
| [http://dl.eve-files.com/media/corp/wensley/The_Rifter_Guide_Solo_PvP.pdf The Rookie Rifter guide] nothing more needs to be said aside from reference to this excellent piece of work. | | == Patch History == |

| ===In Uni blobs===
| | :''The rifter is an iconic ship which has languished a bit too long at the bottom of the kiddie pool. Improving its damage should make it a bit more competitive, particularly in areas such as novice factional warfare complexes.'' |
|
| |
|
| ''Mainly used in a tackling role. Focus is therefore on EITHER a MWD or an AB - MWD for sheer speed but at increased sig radius, AB provides a speed boost without the penalty to the increase sig radius, It is much a matter of personal preference but bear in mind that a MWD makes you a whole world easier to target! <br> <br> For more on tackling please see:'' [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Tackling_101_Guide EVE uni guide to tackling]
