Summary
The Hyena is the Minmatar Electronic Attack Frigate, and a T2 variant on the Vigil. It retains the Vigil's target painting bonuses, even slightly upgrading its effectiveness bonus. Most significantly it gets a large bonus to the range of stasis webs.
The Hyena is short on mid slots, meaning it usually needs to choose between being a target painting platform and webbing platform or it will be sub-par at both. As a TP platform the Hyena has a minor advantage over the Vigil due to its slightly higher TP effectiveness bonus, but the difference is small and the Hyena is considerably more expensive for the benefit. The usual use for the Hyena is as a webbing platform. Prior to Rubicon the Hyena had a short effective range on its webs even with the bonus, making it very vulnerable to attack by any target it webbed. Post-Rubicon with reasonable skills the Hyena can overheat its webs to reach 33km, allowing it to tackle kiting cruisers without being insta-killed by them, and making it a valuable addition to any gate camp to quickly web ships that try to burn back to the gate.

- The Hyena greatly suffers from its lack of low slots in armor fleets, making it a very easy target when positioning with the main DPS wing.
- At the same time, the range on Webifiers is low enough that positioning with the Logistics is generally not feasible. As such, the Ashimmu provides a far more reliable (though slightly more expensive) webification platform.
