- You can repair damage
- Effective in duels or missions
|
- Dependant on capacitor to power active modules
- More buttons to press
|
- Armor repair systems (active)
- Armor hardeners (active)
- Energized & resistance plating (passive)
- Possible rigs: auxiliary nano pump, nanobot accelerator
|
|
Buffer
|
Have as many effective hitpoints as possible so you survive as long as possible
|
- PvP: keeps you alive longest versus lots of enemies
- Fewer buttons to press
|
- Armour plates make you less agile & slower
- Armour does not regenerate
|

Buffer
|
Have as many effective hitpoints as possible so you survive as long as possible
|
- PvP: keeps you alive longest versus lots of enemies
- Fewer buttons to press
- Shield naturally regenerates...
|
- Larger signature radius (making enemies target you faster and hit you easier)
- Shield naturally regenerates... very slowly
|
- Shield extenders (passive)
- Shield hardeners (active)
- Shield resistance amplifiers (passive)
- Possible rig: core defence field extender
|
|
Passive
|
Maximise the natural recharge rate of your shields so that they self-repair any damage taken
|
- Regenerates naturally fast
- Effective in missions
|
- Fewer actual hit points
- Not many ships can do it very well
|

- Possible rig: core defence field purger
|
Speed
|
|
Travel fast enough that the enemy guns can't track you and their missiles do much less damage
|
- Fast & agile
- Can dictate range
- Lots of inherent GTFO ability
- Effective in missions & PvP
|
- Fragile if/when you are actually hit by something
- Dependant on not being webbed or scrammed by the enemy
- Not many ships can do it very well
|
- Afterburner or microwarpdrive (active)
- Overdrive injector systems (passive)
- Nanofiber internal structure (passive)
- Possible rigs: auxiliary thrusters, low friction nozzle joints, polycarbon engine housing
