==Summary==
The Kronos update brought the Worm back in line with assault frigates, both in terms of dps and tank. The Worm can only use two light drones, but its role bonus makes them as effective as 8. The Worm is effective in PvE (up to level 3 missions with care) as well as in PvP although it is significantly more costly than tech II frigates such as the [[Ishkur]].
The Worm is one of the most popular pirate frigates, and is roughly comparable to assault frigates, both in DPS and tank. It can only use 2 light drones, but its role bonus makes them as effective as 8.
 
The Worm is effective in PvE (up to Level 3 missions with care, and some lower-tier [[Abyssal Deadspace]] pockets) as well as in PvP. It is significantly more costly than Tech 2 frigates such as the [[Ishkur]], but it doesn't have such high character skill requirements.

Speed and the low signature radius are key to evading damage, while drones and launchers apply damage.
Speed and the low signature radius are key to evading damage, while drones and launchers apply damage. The heavily-bonused drones are the key to the ship, so watch their HP very carefully: if they're threatened, you must pull them back to the drone bay at all costs.
