It is important to remember that the above mentioned ships need to be able to get within neuting range (approximately 20km), before they pose an actual threat. Depending on where the ships spawn, what else spawns with them and how far they close in on your position, neuting boats might not be an immediate concern. Just don't let too many of them live long enough to close the distance and start neuting. | It is important to remember that the above mentioned ships need to be able to get within neuting range (approximately 20km), before they pose an actual threat.

== Managing the incoming damage == | |||
By focusing on the right targets, you can drop the incoming damage much faster than just aimlessly shooting whatever is closest. Below is a recommended order of priority, if your goal is to reduce the incoming damage: | |||

How much damage a certain ship puts out, in combination with their resists and buffer as well as how easy they are to hit, is what matters if your goal is to reduce the incoming damage as fast as possible. These are commonly referred to as ''"glass cannons"''' in EVE and for minimum effort, you remove a lot of damage from the grid by focusing on them first. | |||
Also remember that their engagement range should be considered as well. Not only because it's easier to shoot frigates at range compared to when they are orbiting close, but also because some ships won't be able to apply their damage until they get closer. | |||
