As a battlecruiser, a Myrmidon is a step up from cruisers, and is a good point to be ensuring that you have good [[fitting skills]] and can mount Tech 2 tanking modules. Drone skills are obviously important to the ship. While it is perfectly fine for PvE to fly it with Tech 1 drones initially, pilots should look into training for Tech 2 drones if they intend to fly the ship often, and especially if they plan to move on up to the Dominix. | As a battlecruiser, a Myrmidon is a step up from cruisers, and is a good point to be ensuring that you have good [[fitting skills]] and can mount Tech 2 tanking modules.

For PvE, bring drones appropriate to your targets' [[NPC damage types|weaknesses]], and an active armour tank with strengthened resistances against the damage type(s) you will be receiving. Make sure you have a flight of light drones to deal with small targets. | For PvE, bring drones appropriate to your targets' [[NPC damage types|weaknesses]], and an active armour tank with strengthened resistances against the damage type(s) you will be receiving.

In ancient Greek mythology, the Myrmidons were a tribe in Thessaly; in Homer's ''Iliad'', they are the soldiers serving under Achilles. The classical Greeks thought, possibly wrongly, that the name came from their word for "ant" and meant "ant people". In medieval and early modern Europe, "myrmidon" came to be associated with ant-like unfeeling loyalty, and the word was used in ways not unlike the more modern word "robot". Most of these associations seem appropriate to the Myrmidon's drone bonus, and the ship was probably named for one of them, or possibly for several at once. | In ancient Greek mythology, the Myrmidons were a tribe in Thessaly; in Homer's ''Iliad'', they are the soldiers serving under Achilles.
