==Summary==

Like other Khanid vessels, the '''Sacrilege''' fuses Amarr armor tanking with Caldari missile weapons, providing a rare combination which is difficult to ~~skill into --~~ Amarr pilots will generally prefer to fly a [[Zealot]] since they will already have strong energy turret skills, while Caldari pilots will need to train up armor tanking. However, a ~~pilot who has strong missile skills but weak gunnery skills and finds themselves in need of an armor tanked damage-dealing~~ ship ~~for fleet ops will find themselves short on options. Thus~~, the ~~Sacrilege fills a very niche spot in Eve's catalog~~ of ~~ships, along with its siblings the [[Vengeance]] and [[Damnation]]~~.

Like other Khanid vessels, the '''Sacrilege''' fuses Amarr armor tanking with Caldari missile weapons, providing a rare combination which is difficult to train for: Amarr pilots will generally prefer to fly a [[Zealot]] since they will already have strong energy turret skills, while Caldari pilots will need to train up armor tanking. However, the Sacrilege is a capable ship, powerful in the hands of well-trained pilots.

In terms of hull bonuses, the Sacrilege is most comparable to a [[Cerberus]]. It trades some range, DPS, and speed for tank, signature radius, a 50m3 drone bay, a potential energy neutralizer, and a choice of any damage type. These differences (particularly the tank) make the Sacrilege far more suited to brawling than the Cerberus.

These differences (particularly the tank) make the Sacrilege far more suited to close-ranged brawling than the Cerberus.

The Sacrilege performs admirably whether flown solo or in a fleet, able to fit either dual reps to tank as much damage as it dishes out or a buffer tank to maximize survivability when primaried. Notably, HAM [[Legion]] fits strongly resemble those for the Sacrilege in much the same way a HM [[Tengu]] represents a more powerful Cerberus, so depending on a player's goals, skills, and budget they may opt to fly a Legion instead.

Due to the ubiquity of brawling armor fleets in wormhole space, the Sacrilege is one of few options for a missile boat suitable for a typical WH fleet, alongside [[Damnation]] and [[Legion]]. It is also perfectly suited to [[Fleet_and_Gang_Types#AHAC_-_Armor-Heavy_Assault_Cruisers|AHAC]] fleets, particularly by offering greater capability for close-range combat than the Zealot while still hitting out to a respectable range with HAMs.
