==Summary==
== Summary ==


New Caldari players who enjoyed the missile-centric playstyle of the [[Kestrel]] have the option of flying the missile-flinging Corax on their way to piloting a [[Caracal]], rather than being forced into the turret-toting [[Cormorant]]. With its range bonus and a bonus to explosion velocity that helps its missiles apply damage to small, fast targets, the Corax can threaten most frigates, from long ranges.

== Skills ==


Being a Tech 1 destroyer and potentially a pilot's first step up from frigate hulls, the Corax is quite forgiving. Basic [[fitting skills]] and [[support skills]] are desirable. {{sk|Missile Bombardment}} and {{sk|Missile Projection}} increase missile ranges and synergize well with the Corax's strengths.

==Tactics==
== Tactics ==


The Corax's range bonuses push it towards mid- and long-range engagements. With honed skills and Tech 2 equipment, it can be fitted to project around 150 DPS at around 70 km, though this DPS will be delayed by missile travel time.

In PvE combat, the Corax can make short work of Level 1 missions, and can even attempt some Level 2s, though a [[Caracal]] will be a good step up for those. Pilots should remember that the ship has a bonus for kinetic missile damage.

==Notes==
== Notes ==


''Corax'' is part of the scientific name for the common raven, ''corvus corax''; it was a Latin word meaning "raven", and was borrowed into Latin from ancient Greek. This makes the Corax a rare example of a ship in EVE which has a name meaning the same thing as that of another ship, the much larger [[Raven]].
