Like other Khanid vessels, the Sacrilege fuses Amarr armor tanking with Caldari missile weapons, providing a rare combination which is difficult to skill into -- Amarr pilots will generally prefer to fly a [[Zealot]]. However, a Caldari pilot who has strong missile skills but weak gunnery skills and finds themselves in need of an armor tanked damage-dealing ship for fleet ops will find themselves short on options. Thus, the Sacrilege fills a very niche spot in Eve's catalog of ships, along with its siblings the [[Vengeance]] and [[Damnation]].
Like other Khanid vessels, the Sacrilege fuses Amarr armor tanking with Caldari missile weapons, providing a rare combination which is difficult to skill into -- Amarr pilots will generally prefer to fly a [[Zealot]] since they will already have strong energy turret skills, while Caldari pilots will need to train up armor tanking.

For the prospective armor-tanking Caldari pilot, the Sacrilege is most comparable to and easiest to crosstrain from a [[Cerberus]]. It trades some range, DPS, and speed for tank, signature radius, a 50m3 drone bay, a potential energy neutralizer, and a choice of any damage type. These differences (particularly the tank) make the Sacrilege far more suited to brawling than the Cerberus.

The Sacrilege performs admirably whether flown solo or in a fleet, able to fit either dual reps to tank as much damage as it dishes out or a buffer tank to maximize survivability when primaried. Notably, HAM [[Legion]] fits strongly resemble those for the Sacrilege in much the same way a HM [[Tengu]] represents a more powerful Cerberus, so depending on a player's goals, skills, and budget they may opt to fly a Legion instead.
