==Summary==
This Force Recon is the 'U-Boat' of EVE. Able to select, stalk, and engage its targets at will without them knowing until too late, it is the ultimate solo recon if you seek a slow and deliberate way of delivering death. Once a target is engaged this ship is commited to the fight and generally someone is going to die.

The Pilgrim and Curse share the neut amount bonus together with the TD and Drone bonus, but the neut range bonus is dropped in favour of the Force recon covert ops cloak bonus. This leaves the ship designed to get in close, demolish the cap of its opponent, and then go to work with its drones while the TD mitigates damage from turret ships.

There are variations of Pilgrim fits out there but much less variation than with the Sentinel or Curse. Generally the fitting will follow roles like the Covert Cyno / Scout role, Solo PvP, Probing Pilgrim etc. There is no point nano/shield fitting a Pilgrim as your target selection and cloak are the surviability rather than speed and ability to control range. In a solo role you don't decloak until you are in web and scram range anyways, scout and skirmish Pilgrims apply the same principle, and there is very little to no reason to use a Pilgrim over a Curse in normal gang support.
