These ships are only manufactured by players through the Invention process. They are usually comparable in price to Empire faction ships while being more powerful, but have high skill requirements to use. As well as better performance and bonuses, T2 ships have increased damage resistance, making them tougher. Additionally, many (but not all) Tech 2 ships are more specialised than their Tech 1 counterparts. An example of a Tech 2 frigate is the [[Wolf]], a Tech 2 Minmatar [[Assault frigate]] based on the [[Rifter]].

These ships are bought from ~~pirate~~ faction loyalty point stores. They can also be purchased second-hand from players on the market. ~~Pirate~~ faction ships require two different ~~factions~~' ~~spaceship command~~ skills to use. For example, the [[Dramiel]], an Angel Cartel frigate, requires Minmatar and Gallente frigate skills. They do not require high levels in them, however, making them considerably easier to train for than Tech 2 ships. ~~Pirate~~ ships typically have equal or better performance to Tech 2 ships, but cost more.

These ships are bought from non-empire faction loyalty point stores, including Pirate factions, and others, such as Sisters Of Eve. They can also be purchased second-hand from players on the market. These non-empire faction ships require two different races' Spaceship Command skills to use. For example, the [[Dramiel]], an Angel Cartel frigate, requires both Minmatar and Gallente frigate skills. They do not require high levels in them, however, making them considerably easier to train for than Tech 2 ships. Non-Empire ships typically have equal or better performance to Tech 2 ships, but cost considerably more.
