* Weapons

** You’ll likely have one or two high slots available for weapon turrets or missile launchers. None of the Tier 1 Exploration Frigates get bonuses to weapons, so use whatever weapon you have trained (generally tied to your race). Since Exploration Frigates don't slug things ~~our~~ well, consider longer-range options.

Since Exploration Frigates don't slug things out well, consider longer-range options.

* An armor or shield tank

** Tanking goes beyond the scope of this article, but thankfully the University has good lessons in place already for both [[Shield Tanking]] and [[Armour Tanking]]. Equipping your ship with a few appropriate tanking modules will increase its survival rate if you decide to tangle with easier NPC targets. Note that you should never try to build both a shield tank AND armour tank on the same ship, and that shield tanking generally requires mid slots, of which your exploration kit already eats three. Beyond those caveats, a Shield Extender or some Armor Plates might make the difference between successful retreat and successful ejection from your freshly destroyed ship.
