Few ships and players are so evenly matched that they will fight to a draw; consequently, PvP encounters tend to be violent, but brief. On the other hand, PvE enemies almost always outnumber you, sometimes by very large margins. You have to take them out one by one, which means that security mission encounters generally drag on for awhile. You want a different kind of ship, with different fittings, for this kind of combat. | Few ships and players are so evenly matched that they will fight to a draw; consequently, PvP encounters tend to be violent, but brief.
