==Summary==
==Summary==
The '''Leshak''' is a precursor ship from the [[Triglavian Collective]]. It was released in the [[Expansions|Into The Abyss]] expansion on May the 29th 2018, alongside its unique weapon system and two other precursor ships, the [[Vedmak]] and the [[Damavik]].
The '''Leshak''' is the [[Triglavian Collective]]'s battleship. From its introduction in 2018 through the [[Marauder]] improvements in 2021, the Leshak was ''the'' highest damage battleship in New Eden, while also featuring very thick armor, four utility High slots, Blaster-grade Tracking out to Mega Pulse Laser ranges, and a mass low enough to make it surprisingly fast but also bad at accelerating to that speed.


Precursor ships can fit a single [[Turrets#Precursor_turrets|Supratidal Entropic Disintegrator weapon]], a DPS-ramping turret with no falloff. Their slot layouts are suited to armor tanking, and they are are bonused for remote repping, energy neutralization and smartbombing.
In the time since the 2021 Industry overhaul and Marauder changes, the Leshak has fallen in popularity, due to the new supremacy of Marauders as the uncontested highest-damage battleships, and the surge in hull prices. Prior to these changes however, the Leshak was one of the kings of Wormhole Space fighting (with its low mass and high armor, damage, and utilities), and one of the kings of high-end PVE (Triglavian Invasion, Sansha [[Incursions]], high-class Wormhole sites,).


It's very high levels of damage (peaking at 3k DPS at max ramp with Occult, max skills, and the right fit), combined with its range selection, high armor buffer, and utility  highs, has led it to be a ship of choice in many areas, ranging from high class [[Wormhole]] heavy armor fleets, to Headquarters [[Incursion]] fleets, to Invasion fleets during [[Triglavian Invasion (Chapter 1 & 2)|Chapters 1 & 2]], as well as for [[Upwell structures|structure]] bashing.
Like all Triglavian combat ships, the Vedmak uses the unique Entropic Disintegrator weapon, a single turret with high damage and tracking, whose damage increases the longer it remains focused on a single target. Maximum damage is reached after 30 shots, or about two minutes. However, if the Disintegrator stops firing for any reason (manual deactivation, target lock broken, capacitor depletion, target out of range), the damage bonus is reset. Fortunately, due to its size, the Leshak is the most resistant of all Triglavian ships to having its Disintegrator deactivated.
