Caldari State Freighters Charon Class Has Huge Cargohold HIGHLIGHTS RELATED UNI-WIKI REFERENCES EVE Online Ships Overview EXTERNAL LINKS Charon on zKillboard Charon on EVE Workbench Charon on Janice Charon on EVE Ref

As the makers of the Charon, the Caldari State are generally credited with pioneering the freighter class. Recognizing the need for a massive transport vehicle as deep space installations constantly increase in number, they set about making the ultimate in efficient mass transport - and were soon followed by the other empires. Regardless, the Charon still stands out as the benchmark by which the other freighters were measured. Its massive size and titanic cargo hold are rivalled by none.

Summary

The Charon has the highest cargo capacity of any freighter in the game, being able to carry 1,204,741 m³ of cargo at Caldari Freighter V when fit to maximize cargo. Caldari freighters with Caldari Freighter IV can hold more than any other freighter, even with their respective freighter skills trained to V, so if you want to carry massive amounts of materials, the Charon is the way to go.

Skills

Since Freighters cannot fit any high or mid slot modules, if you want to focus primarily on flying freight there are only a handful of support skills that will matter.

Armor: Mechanics V - Adds Structure (Hull) hit points. Hull Upgrades V - Adds Armor hit points.

Navigation: Evasive Manuevering V - Increases ship agility (time to align). Navigation V - Increase sub-warp velocity. Warp Drive Operation V - Decrease capacitor use per jump.

Shields: Shield Management V - Increases shield capacity. Shield Operation V - Reduces shield recharge time. Tactical Shield Manipulation V - Reduces shield damage penetration when shields are less than 25%.

Spaceship Command: Caldari Industrial III - Prerequisite for Caldari Freighter. Spaceship Command V - Prerequisite for Caldar Freighter and 2% agility boost per level. Advanced Spaceship Command V - Prerequisite for Caldari Freighter and 5% agility boost per level for ships requiring Advanced Spaceship Command. Caldari Freighter V - Maxes out Charon cargo capacity and velocity.

Not absolutely necessary, but helpful:

Neural Enhancement: Cybernetics IV - Allows +4 implants for faster training, allows for Warp and Align implants to improve both. Infomorph Psychology IV - Allows for Jump Clones. Infomorph Synchronization V - Reduces time between Jump Clone jumps.

Trade: Contracting V - Allow creation of more than one contract at a time.
