In simple terms, Spider tanking involves the use of a Buffer and/or highly resistant tank that is repaired remotely by other ships in your squad who are in turn repaired by remote repair modules on your ship. However, this is an advanced technique that requires a good deal of coordination to function effectively, and is better left for discussion in another guide. | In simple terms, Spider tanking involves the use of a Buffer and/or highly resistant tank that is repaired remotely by other ships in your squad who are in turn repaired by remote repair modules on your ship.

Armor compensation Skills: These skills will improve the effectiveness of passive modules such as Resistance and Energized plates. Most importantly, these skills enhance the use of EANM modules so it is recommended these skills be trained to at least IV, with the exception of Explosive Armor compensation which should be trained to V to help compensate for Armor’s inherent weakness to that type of damage. | Armor compensation Skills: These skills will improve the effectiveness of passive modules such as Resistance and Energized plates.
