The Zealot follows the HAC model of having somewhat lower DPS and tank than a ~~Battlecruiser~~, but making up for it with greater range and speed. This results in a ship that can outrun anything it can't outgun.

The Zealot follows the HAC model of having somewhat lower DPS and tank than a battlecruiser, but making up for it with greater range and speed. This results in a ship that can outrun anything it can't outgun.

Generally, a Zealot can take on larger ships if flown correctly. Versus battleships and tier 3 battlecruisers with large guns, emphasise angular velocity by orbiting or manual piloting.

If you have an AB fitted then you are golden. When fighting a battlecruiser with medium weapons or cruiser, you most likely outrange and outspeed them so kite and fight. If you have been flying Amarr exclusively up to this point, it might be a good idea to practice your kiting skills.

If you have an afterburner fitted then you are golden. When fighting a battlecruiser with medium weapons or cruiser, you most likely outrange and outspeed them, so kite and fight. If you have been flying Amarr exclusively up to this point, it might be a good idea to practice your kiting skills.

~~The zealot has no drones, nor space for an energy neutraliser, so it is very vulnerable to any fast frigates if they get within tackle range~~.
