The same gimmick that applies to Rogue Drone Battleships also applies to Drifter battleships, albeit even easier to exploit, which can greatly benefit afterburner-focused cruisers; if the pocket happens to spawn an '''Ephialtes Lancer''', the battleship will follow it in orbit and as a result move closer to you, making it significantly easier to get under its guns and save a lot of stress. This does not work with any other Sleeper/Drifter cruiser types. | The same gimmick that applies to Rogue Drone Battleships also applies to Drifter battleships, albeit even easier to exploit, which can greatly benefit afterburner-focused cruisers; if the pocket happens to spawn an '''Ephialtes Lancer''', the battleship will follow it in orbit and as a result move closer to you, making it significantly easier to get under its guns and save a lot of stress.

Drifter ships start the fight with 24% shields, 14% armor (~50% in Firestorm) and 30% hull. Drifter cruisers all use some form of EWAR in addition to dealing damage, but they also have large signature radii and are thus easy to finish off. | Drifter ships start the fight with pre-existing damage; cruisers have 24% shields, 14% armor (~50% in Firestorm) and 30% hull, while the battleship's damage varies according to the filament tier.

Seeker ships are far more generic than Drifter ships, and while they feature many forms of EWAR, they also have only thin armor. | Seeker ships are far more generic than Drifter ships, and while they feature many forms of EWAR, they also have only thin armor. | ||
