| Most commonly, fleet logistics is about remote repair. "Local" repair—in which a ship repairs itself—is ''not'' considered "logistics" in EVE. Instead, logistics ships specialize in repairing other ships. In this way, logistics ships in EVE are similar to the "healer" character classes you find in many other online multiplayer games; logistics pilots usually assist their fleetmates by restoring their hitpoints (HP), during battle. Remote repair can be used to restore HP to a ship's shield, armor, or hull, via three types of high-slot, remote repair modules: <span style="color: wheat">Remote Shield Boosters</span>, <span style="color: wheat">Remote Armor Repairers</span>, and <span style="color: wheat">Remote Hull Repairers</span>. (Technically speaking, shields are "boosted" rather than "repaired", but for the purpose of this Guide, shield boosters have been classified as repair modules.) These three types of remote repair modules have some important differences. The chart below illustrates these differences for medium-sized, Tech I modules of each type:

| As the table above shows, fitting remote repair modules to bonused logistics ships makes them work much better, and pilot skills affect these numbers as well. In addition, there are meta versions of these modules with improved range ("Scoped"), CPU and powergrid requirements ("Compact"), or capacitor usage ("Enduring"). So, the specific values in this table are not so important. Nevertheless, the chart does illustrate some of the most important differences between remote shield, armor, and hull repair modules:

| *<span style="color: cyan">The icons for remote repair modules look like those of local repair modules, and armor and hull repairers look alike. Make sure you select the module you want!</span> Most remote assistance modules are distinguished from local modules by a double arrow on the icon. The icons for remote armor and hull repairers show welding helmets with different colors: gold for armor, and silver for hull. If you find the symbols confusing, the names are much clearer, so you can mouse over the module icon to make sure you have the right kind. | | *<span style="color: cyan">The icons for remote repair modules look like those of local repair modules, and armor and hull repairers look alike.
