This battlecruiser is a shield tanked cruiser's nightmare, with the the ability to wield seven heavy pulse lasers and still have the CPU and powergrid left over to fit a respectable tank allowing it to wreak havoc on the battlefield. The Harbinger, even with a large tank, ironically has the ability to be rather agile within engagements. Its large CPU and Powergrid gives it the ability to fit a 10MN Microwarpdrive and burn towards many targets that are out of range, while the 50m<sup>3</sup> drone bay and bandwidth allows the Harbinger to field a full flight of medium drones. This particular battlecruiser is a great incentive to train the Battlecruiser skill to at least IV. Lastly, the Harbinger has the ability to be fit either a full armor or shield tank.

For [[Incursions]] the Harbinger is not ideal, but can serve as a starting point for trying them out and to use while training into a more suitable ship. See [[Minimum Incursion fits#Amarr ship progression|Amarr ship progression]] for more information on where to go from here.


The Retribution 1.1 update removed one turret slot but increased the damage increase per skill level from 5% to 10%, meaning that, with Battlecruiser V trained, the Harbinger does even more damage than before. However, below skills below Battlecruiser IV mean that the Harbinger does less damage than it did pre-patch.
