Interceptors: Difference between revisions

Line 29:

Besides their usual roles as scout and tackle, fleet interceptors are often used in unconventional ways. "Travel 'ceptors" are fleet interceptors which are fitted to have less than two seconds align time. This is often paired with rigs for faster warp speed. Since CCP removed innate interdiction nullification from fleet interceptors, basic shuttles—which do have innate nullification—have taken over some of the nullsec travel ship role.

{{expansion past|Fleet interceptors used to have innate interdiction nullification, as shuttles now do (at the time of writing, late 2021). This has been removed, and replaced by the ''ability'' to fit an "Interdiction Nullifier", which is a more limited active module with a similar effect.}}

Fleet interceptors are also sometimes fitted for exploration in nullsec. The idea is that they are safer for traveling than covert ops ships which are bonused for scanning. But it's doubtful whether the ability to fit an [[Interdiction Nullifier]] is really worth losing the scanning bonus of a dedicated exploration ship.
