==Fitting==

Enyos are fairly easy to fit. Pick four blasters that will fit with your fitting skills, add a Nosferatu, Afterburner or MWD, Scram (Or Web if your buddy is bringing a scram), and then your low slots. Low slots are where it gets a little tricky. To get the most out of an Enyo use a small armor repper. A solid choice is to plug your Explosive hole with either an Energized Reactive Plate or Explosive Armor Hardener. Add a another resistance plate (the ones that don't require CPU) and then it is up to you whether you want to load a Damage Control Unit or Magnetic Field Stabilizer. Try not to put armor rigs or armor plates on the Enyo. You will drop its speed down to below that of some cruisers, meaning you will be neither able to close orbit while your MWD is off, nor stay alive while webbed with your AB on.

If you do need to fit an armor plate, consider training the Armor Honeycombing skill to mitigate the speed penalty taken.

Below are some examples of how to tailor-fit your enyo to the situation you will be going into. I recommend starting with the starter Enyo. It has easy fitting requirements and lets you get a feel for it. That ship will also allow you to swap the Afterburner for a named Microwarpdrive in station without having to re-tool the entire thing. So keep one in your cargo hold.

=== Suicide Fits Don't Work ===

The last fit is an example of the Suicide Enyo. It functions on the "I'm assuming I will never be primaried" principle of fighting. There are some people out there who swear by the idea of a Suicide Enyo, which is one that is fit for pure speed and dps. It is a hold-over from the pre-nano nerf style of combat. You will see the kill boards littered with their loss mails and have very few genuine kills outside of solo - one on one - ganks. That style of play is based on "Who Locked Who" first and is an expensive gamble with a 25 million ISK ship.
