Other than picking off stragglers, the Machariel has a decent leg up on other comparable battleships. The high DPS and speed tanking abilities make for a deadly combination. Although the [[Nightmare| Nightmare]] has a larger role bonus for damage, the Machariel has more options for tuning damage types. Also, the Machariel will outperform the [[Nightmare| Nightmare]] outside of the 40 km sweet spot in terms of raw damage. Most importantly,the incredible agility of the ship allows for great speed tanking, especially when matched with other battleships. | Other than picking off stragglers, the Machariel has a decent leg up on other comparable battleships.

In the past, the Machariel was also an excellent hull for Sansha [[Incursion]] fleets. However, after the Surgical Strike patch of 2020, the Machariel began to fall out of favor in Incursion communities, and the [[Nightmare]] and [[Leshak]] started to become more optimal Incursion ships. However, the [[EVE University Incursion Community]] still use Machariels. | |||
