Harbinger: Difference between revisions

Line 83:

The Harbinger is a well rounded battlecruiser; it doesn't have the legendary tank of the [[Drake]] or the firepower of the [[Hurricane]], but can be depended on to perform well in any role.

This battlecruiser is a shield tanked cruiser's nightmare, with ~~the~~ the ability to wield six heavy pulse lasers and still have the CPU and powergrid left over to fit a respectable tank allowing it to wreak havoc on the battlefield. The Harbinger, even with a large tank, ironically has the ability to be rather agile within engagements. Its large CPU and Powergrid gives it the ability to fit a 50MN Microwarpdrive and burn towards many targets that are out of range, while the 75 m3 drone bay and bandwidth allows the Harbinger to field either a full flight of medium drones or a full flight of light drones, depending on circumstances.

Like many Amarr ships the Harbinger is not the easiest ship to fit, and much will be gained by training fitting skills to at least IV, and V is recommended. This particular battlecruiser is a great incentive to train the Amarr Battlecruiser skill to at least IV. Lastly, the Harbinger has the ability to be fit either a full armor or shield tank.

*Along with the obvious '''[[Skills:Engineering#Power Grid management|Power Grid management V]]''' and '''[[Skills:Engineering#CPU management|CPU management V]]''' fitting skills required for fitting most ships, '''[[Skills:Engineering#Weapon Upgrades|Weapon Upgrades V]]''' should be trained to help with fitting. '''[[Skills:Engineering#Advanced Weapon Upgrades|Advanced Weapon Upgrades]]''' is also an important skill for pilots wishing to armor tank.
