Wreathe
RELATED UNI-WIKI REFERENCES

The Wreathe is an old ship of the Minmatar Republic and one of the oldest ships still in usage. The design of the Wreathe is very plain, which is the main reason for its longevity, but it also makes the ship incapable of handling anything but the most mundane tasks. SHIP BONUSES

Summary
The Wreathe is the entry level Industrial provided to Minmatar capsuleers during the tutorial missions. Its cargo hold leaves much to be desired but when just starting out it is capable enough to handle small hauling jobs. Level 1 distribution Missions and light station trading are situations that this ship accommodates. As young pilots have less starting capital the cargo size of the Wreathe will be suited fine.
The Wreathe is also notable for being the fastest Tech 1 industrial available, to the point that two inertia stabilizers will allow it to align faster than a Blockade Runner and as fast as a fleet interceptor (see Fast Transport fit below). It does this while having the second largest base cargo hold of the fast industrials, making it arguably the best overall ship in its class. A properly fit Wreathe will be able to zip through lowsec gate camps, assuming they aren't packing smartbombs. Running distribution missions in lowsec can provide some practical experience for blockade runners.

- Shield Upgrades IV
- Power Grid Management V
- Fitting two large shield extenders requires a 1% powergrid implant (EE-601), otherwise one needs to be replaced with a medium extender or resistance amplifier. At Shield Upgrades V tech 2 LSEs can be fit.
- Aligns in ~4 seconds with moderate skills or 3.1 seconds with max skills.
- Warp speed is 7.8 AU/s, almost as fast as an interceptor. Implants are available to increase warp speed further.
- Cargo capacity 4437 m3
- Ideal for running distribution missions in highsec including L4s. Replace inertia stabs with expanded cargoholds as needed.
- Boasts 20k+ EHP for tanking hisec gankers.
- Passive amplifiers can be replaced with active hardeners, though as a hauler you're not likely to think about activating hardeners after every jump.

- Minmatar Industrial IV
- Evasive Maneuvering IV
- Power Grid Management V
- Shield Upgrades IV
- Capacity: 3480 m3*
- Align: 4 s**
- Warp Speed: 7.8 AU/s
- EHP: >15k
- Cost: ~5 mil ISK
- This ship and fit is an ideal lowsec transport ship, save for a blockade runner.
- Dual warp core stabilizers protect against a single scram or two disruptors, enough to zip past most GCs.
- A cloaking device+MWD may optionally be added which can provide practice for using blockade runners. However, you will have to remove both large shield extenders.
- Tech 1 and meta modules are used to lower costs and PG usage.
- * May be increased up to 9580 m3 when dropping the three agility mods and a core stab. Removing the second core stab is not recommended when lowsec hauling.
- **Requires Minmatar Industrial IV and Evasive Maneuvering IV to achieve 4 second align. With both skills at V an inertia stabilizer may be permanently replaced with an expanded cargohold without affecting align time.

- Shield Upgrades IV
- With max skills:
- Capacity: 18576 m3
- Align: 5.7 s
- Warp Speed: 4.5 AU/s
- EHP: 18,397
- As with the Fast Transport fit, passive resistance amplifiers may be replaced with active hardeners if desired.
- If you have Shield Upgrades V, two Large Shield Extender II may be fit. If you do not have Shield Upgrades IV it is acceptable to fit equivalent Tech I variants.
- This fit is recommended as a middle ground between a fast transport fit and a Mammoth bulk transport fit as this fit has more than twice the capacity of a Mammoth fit to have comparable speed.
