This is easily the most survivable and tenacious of the T1 frigates. Due to decent shield and excellent armour HP together with the bonus to armour resistances and the 4 low slots, this platform can handle a surprising amount of damage for a T1 frigate. The Punisher's 3 turrets give it very good dps, but its 2 Mid slots prevent it from fitting the [[Tackling 101 Guide|tackling]] trinity; a speed module, a point, and a web. High SP pilots often mention this ship as their favourite T1 PvP Frigate in the same breath as the infamous Minmatar [http://www.eve-ivy.com/wiki/index.php?title=Minmatar_Basic_Ship_and_Skill_Guide#Rifter Rifter]. | This is easily the most survivable and tenacious of the T1 frigates.

It has by far the largest capacitor of a T1 frigate, 425GJ with no skills, and only the T2 Retribution and a few faction frigates have larger capacitors even outside of the T1 category. This is ostensibly in order to keep its 3 lasers firing, but this is a strength that can be taken advantage of in several ways. The Punisher excels at [[Capacitor Warfare Guide|Capacitor Warfare]] and it can be fitted with projectile turrets instead of lasers to allow the large capacitor to be re-purposed for armour repairers or other high capacitor using modules. | It has by far the largest capacitor of a T1 frigate, 425GJ with no skills, and only the T2 [http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Retribution Retribution] and a few faction frigates have larger capacitors even outside of the T1 category.

This the E-Uni tackler for new Amarr pilots, but it does not excel at this role due to the limited mid slots and low base velocity. | This the E-Uni tackler for new Amarr pilots, but it does not excel at this role due to the limited mid slots and low base velocity. | ||
