The '''Loki''' is the Minmatar [[Strategic Cruiser]]. Strategic cruisers are made up of the hull and 4 subsystems that can be swapped to change the ship's role, making them very flexible. They are also unique in that you can remove Rigs from them without destroying them in the process.(Some highlights of the Loki are:

* Defensive subsystems for both armor and shield tanking - the only strategic cruiser to support this.
 
* Covert Reconfiguration subsystem (also available to other strategic cruisers) allows the Loki to be configured as a capable combat cloaky.
Some highlights of the Loki are:

* Core subsystem for improved web range, allowing the Loki to be configured as a "super" [[Rapier]] or [[Huginn]].

* Offensive subsystems to support autocannons, artillery and missiles (Rapid Lights, Heavy and Heavy Assault Missiles). Though it only bonuses the missile velocity of heavy and heavy assaults.

The Loki has become the premiere T3 Cruiser of Wormhole space - this is due to the meta shift towards the prevalence of [[Capacitor_warfare#Energy_Neutralizers|neuts]] (and citadel void bombs while those existed), where its versatility in weapons that don't need capacitor to fire becomes very attractive. In a pure combat subsystem configuration it can fit the best tank, whilst still giving respectable, versatile damage - especially when fitted with Launcher Efficiency Config subsystem and Heavy Assault Missiles.
