==Summary==

The Maulus is the Gallente [[Frigates#Electronic_Warfare|Electronic Warfare Frigate]], specializing in remote sensor dampening (or “damps”). Damps are most often used to reduce the lock range of enemy targets. The Maulus is a powerful EWAR ship, especially against enemies that strike from long range. It is often seen in E-UNI fleets. For new EVE players, flying the Maulus only requires training {{sk|Gallente Frigate|I}} and {{sk|Sensor Linking|I}}. As a result, new Unistas can have an immediate, significant impact on fleet engagements by flying the Maulus. The ~~Griffin~~ also provides excellent training for more advanced ECM ships, like the [[Celestis]] and [[Keres]].

The Maulus is typically fit with three remote sensor dampeners in its mid slots. Unscripted, these modules affect both the lock range and lock speed of targets. Loading a dampener with a Targeting Range Dampening Script makes it twice as effective at reducing enemy lock range, but eliminates the lock speed effect; and loading a Scan Resolution Dampening Script has the opposite effect, making the module doubly effective against lock speed but ineffective against lock range. In general, the lock range effect is easier to predict and direct, so Maulus pilots usually have range scripts loaded in their dampeners. But scripts are extremely cheap, and they are not consumed by use, so pilots always carry three copies of each script. Dampeners do have the disadvantage of being the most capacitor-hungry EWAR modules, and so the Maulus is often fit to optimize capacitor—by using “Enduring” meta modules, and/or by adding capacitor rigs to the fit.
