Summary
The Viator is the Gallente Blockade Runner. This class of ship can fit a covert ops cloak, allowing it to slip past gate camps and avoid unwanted attention.
One of two Blockade Runners that is able to be fitted for a capacity of over 10000 m3 (the other being the Prorator), the Viator can carry a packaged cruiser.
Skills
- Navigation to at least IV, to increase the sub-warp speed of the ship.
- Acceleration Control to at least IV, to improve the performance of your MWD.
- High Speed Maneuvering to level IV, to reduce the capacitor demand of your MWD, particularly when overheating it.
- Thermodynamics to III or IV, to allow you to overheat your MWD in an emergency.
- Evasive Maneuvering to level V, to minimize your align time.
The first four skills above work together to improve your survivability should you need to burn back to/away from a gate. The last is important for situations where for some reason you are unable to activate your cloak, or when an opponent might be in a position to uncloak you.
In addition, pilots will want to train Hull Upgrades to at least II to enable the use of T2 Expanded Cargoholds, and Astronautics Rigging to install Cargohold Optimization rigs. Pilots should consider training this last skill beyond the minimum level I to reduce the armor penalty drawback of the rigs.

- Fitted to have over 10000 m3 of cargo space with Tech I rigs, so cruiser hulls can be shipped safely.
- With Tech II rigs the cargo volume increases from 10300 to 11200 m3, but the price more than double.
- EHP is a bit over 20000.

- Allround & Null-Sec Viator fit according to Jester's Trek FOTW.
- Cargo: 4960 m3
- Align Time: 6.04s (rounding UP, 7 s)
- Speed: 2139 m/s
- EHP: 11.1k (Raw: 5.81k)
- Sig: 690
- Know how to cloak. This is a blockade runner - Your method of survival isn't tank, it's the cloak.
- You can swap out the Medium Cargohold Optimization I Rigs for T2 versions, although they're costly. (Cargo: 5400 m3)
- If you need more Cargo swap out the nanofibers for Expanded Cargohold II's. (1 ECII, 1 NanoII - Cargo: 6320 m3 Align time: 7s Speed: 1780 m/2 -- 2 ECII - Cargo: 8060 m3 Align time: 8.31s (9 s) Speed: 1485 m/s)
- Don't swap out the Warp core stab. It can and will save your ship. If you want more safety, go for an additional Warp core stab. But in most cases you'll need the better align time and speed to GTFO.
