The Way of the Tackler: Difference between revisions

Using a spare midslot for a random e-war module will multiply the value of your ship for the fleet. Especially in a big fleet there are usually a lot of tacklers and one more or less doesn't make much of a difference. But if some of those tacklers got an e-war module fitted you can significantly disrupt your enemies' ability to fight back, even though the individual tacklers might not be too effective at that. Also an e-war module increases the survivability of a tackler when trying to keep a target tackled for a while until fleet members caught up/warped in. Tracking disruptors are great for this though they are effective only against turret based ships.

Especially in a big fleet, there are usually a lot of tacklers and one more or less warp scrambler or webifier doesn't make much of a difference. A tracking disruptor or sensor dampener on the other hand can significantly disrupt your enemies' ability to fight back, even though the tackler frigate does not receive a bonus to those modules. An e-war module can also increase the survivability of a tackler when trying to keep a target tackled for a while until fleet members caught up/warped in, as well as helping out any other tacklers in your fleet. Tracking disruptors are great for this though they are effective only against turret based ships.


Most T1 frigates that are used for tackling do not provide any bonus to a specific type of e-war, since the dedicated e-war frigates are usually used purely as e-war platforms. However, e-war modules such as tracking disruptors and remote sensor dampeners are still incredibly effective on any ship, even one with no bonuses to them. ECM jammer modules are the exception and are not recommended on a ship which does not have ECM bonuses (such as the griffin or blackbird).
