[[Breacher]] - {{co|#bfbb7d|Minmatar}} - {{co|#768d31|Missiles}}. The Breacher is widely used as a PvP combat ship, but its missiles and the ability to carry a pair of light combat drones also make it a good fit for PvE. The ship is bonused for light missiles as well as shield boosters, and so is usually shield tanked. Note that the Caldari Kestrel has four launchers, but no drones.

:[[Incursus]] - {{co|#bfbb7d|Gallente}} - {{co|#768d31|Hybrid Turrets}}. This is the only Gallente frigate with 3 turret slots. The Incursus can deal more damage than a drone ship for pilots without higher level drone skills.

:[[Kestrel]] - {{co|#bfbb7d|Caldari}} - {{co|#768d31|Missiles}}. This ship has four standard launchers.

:[[Punisher]] - {{co|#bfbb7d|Amarr}} - {{co|#768d31|Laser Turrets}}. With excellent armour strength, a bonus to armour resistances, and five low slots for installing armor fittings, this is one of the strongest T1 frigates in terms of defense. Its four turrets can give a reasonable damage output. (But note that laser turrets only do thermal and EMP damage ... no kinetic or explosive is available.)

:[[Rifter]] - {{co|#bfbb7d|Minmatar}} - {{co|#768d31|Projectile Turrets}}. The Rifter has three mid and four low equipment slots, which gives it the ability to either shield or armor tank and provides flexibility in fitting. Its speed is an advantage, and it has bonuses for projectile turrets. None-the-less, other factions' frigates tend to be chosen ahead of the Rifter.

:[[Tristan]] - {{co|#bfbb7d|Gallente}} - {{co|#768d31|Drones}}. This is the only T1 frigate that can operate five drones, and it has bonuses to drone defense and speed. Very good [[Drones#Skills|drone skills]] increase its damage considerably, and it is the ship of choice for players who are developing these skills. The Tristan also has a bonus to hybrid turrets, of which it can carry three, but these are often replaced with other equipment since the ship's primary damage lies in its drones.

[[Punisher]] - {{co|#bfbb7d|Amarr}} - {{co|#768d31|Laser Turrets}}.
