Exequror
RELATED UNI-WIKI REFERENCES
|
The Exequror was a heavy cargo cruiser originally strong enough to defend itself against raiding frigates, though it lacked prowess in heavier combat situations. After its redesign, it had some of that bulk - and, necessarily, some of that strength - yanked out and replaced with the capability to help others in heavy combat situations, in particular those who needed armor repairs.

Summary
The Exequror was previously an unloved cruiser, with a large cargo bay but lackluster combat bonuses. With Retribution it was retooled as a dedicated T1 armor logistics cruiser, with bonuses to remote armor repair range and power. It is designed to fit 3 Medium Remote Armor Repairers in its highs and an armor tank in the lows. Getting the Exequror to be cap stable with 3 reppers and a good tank can be tricky with low skills.

Fitting
Tactics
- Mining minerals or gas and hauling should not require an explination.
- PVP:
As a remote rep ship your job is to keep your fellow pilots alive. Add your Fleet commander, any other remote repair ships and a few of your friends to your watch list. Open your fleet window and select the broadcast history tab. Your job is to lock up and put reps on anyone that broadcasts "Need Armor" or if you see a big red block where the green shield block should be with someone on your watch list. Ask your FC who your going to "anchor" on and make sure to orbit that person unless told "Get out there and save him!" Use your ECM drones to jam out tackling frigates or anyone else the FC may designate as "bad".
Be prepaired to get primaried and exploded when the other guys realize your a field medic. That fact is universal for any type of logistics pilot.
- A final note on the Exequror:
This ship is a great stepping stone, and when utilized correctly it can give a lot of valued play to a new player. It's even used by highly skilled players as a cheap logistics boat to rep posses or in high risk situations like null sec gas mining! Just don't expect too much from it and keep in mind which ship you want to move onto next.
