In PvP combat battlecruisers represent a good balance between DPS, tanking, agility, speed and cost (they cost much less to lose than a battleship). Battlecruisers can be fitted for long or short range PvP combat. In large-scale alliance battles in [[nullsec]] they are often part of each side's 'support fleet', defending the main battleship fleet from attack.
In PvP combat battlecruisers represent a good balance between DPS, tanking, agility, speed and cost (they cost much less to lose than a battleship). Battlecruisers can be fitted for long or short range PvP combat. Combat Battlecruisers use the same medium-size weapons as Cruisers, however they gain 25% increased range to these weapons. In large-scale alliance battles in [[nullsec]] they are often part of each side's 'support fleet', defending the main battleship fleet from attack.


In PvE battlecruisers are the standard tool for completing Level 3 combat [[missions]]. Several battlecruisers can mount [[Shield tanking#Shield Tanking Styles|passive shield tanks]] ideal for PvE combat; the Caldari Drake can mount an absolutely exceptional passive shield tank.
