In EVE Online, there are a set of Capital Ship Modules which have no direct subcapital analogue. This page gives a general overview of each module, and the stats for that item if the ship class page does not yet have a section that does so. Modules are categorized into ones that can be fit on more than one capital ship class, and ones for specific classes of Capital Ships.

General Modules

Capital Flex Hardeners

Icon reactive armor hardener.png

Flex Armor Hardeners contain advanced nanite membranes capable of being reprogrammed mid-flight using swappable scripts. When unscripted this module provides resistances to all four damage types, and when loaded with a script it provides greatly enhanced resistance to one specific damage type.

Icon resists.png

Flex Shield Hardeners use powerful but bulky resonance coils to project a constructive interference pattern across a ship's shields. These patterns can increase shield resistances against all damage types, or to provide increased protection against one specific damage type with the aid of swappable scripts.
The Capital Flex Armor and Shield Hardeners are multi-purpose resistance modules. They can swap between being an omni resist module and resisting a single damage type through the use of scripts. Unscripted, both are inferior to T2 versions of the regular omni resist module (Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II & Adaptive Invulnerability Field II), consuming much more cap and giving lower resists. Scripted, they do not reach the resist values of A or X-Type active deadspace hardeners of a particular damage type while consuming much more capacitor. Despite these downsides, the flex hardeners are situationally useful when engaging in fights where one particular damage type predominates, and that damage type wasn't known before the fight.

Capital Emergency Hull Energizer

Icon capital emergency hull energizer.png Specialized damage control module that utilizes a combination of containment field emitters and electromagnetic molecular hull reinforcers to resist damage to the core structure of your ship. Burns out after a single use.

An alternative to the Damage Control only available to capital ships, the Capital Emergency Hull Energizer (CEHE) offers a short burst of very high hull resistance (95% Omni resists), after which it burns out. A Damage Control and a CEHE cannot be fitted on the same ship, meaning that fitting a CEHE comes at the cost of the permanent EHP boost that a Damage Control would give. As such, the CEHE has its niche in mid size capital fights where the damage on field is high enough for the 15-20s of resists from a CEHE to be worthwhile, but without so much damage that a dread could be cleared off before the pilot can react and activate the CEHE under time dilation.

Clone Vat Bay

Icon clone vat bay.png When activated, the Clone Vat Bay allows for the capital ship to receive transneural brain scan data from a capsule-mounted scanner into one of the bay's clones, effectively turning the ship into a mobile clone station.

Fittable to Titans and Rorquals, the Clone Vat Bay enables a ship to serve as a mobile jump clone station. To be a valid jump point, the clone bay has to be activated, which immobilizes the ship it's equipped to and costs 1 Liquid Ozone for 5 minutes. The number of clones that a ship can hold is decided by the hull rather than this module, which is 6 for a Rorqual and 75 for a Titan. The clone count can be improved through the Icon skillbook2.png Cloning Facility Operation skill.

Dreadnoughts

Siege Module

Main article: Dreadnoughts - The Siege Module
Icon siege.png

An electronic interface designed to augment and enhance a dreadnought's siege warfare abilities. Through a series of electromagnetic polarity field shifts, the siege module diverts energy from the ship's propulsion and warp systems to lend additional power to its offensive and defensive capabilities.


The Siege Module is the defining module of the Dreadnought, bringing the full force of their capital weaponry online. This comes at the expense of being unable to move, warp, dock, jump, or receive remote assistance. The Siege Module consumes 250 Strontium Clathrates to activate, and remains active for a 300 second (5 minute) cycle. Strontium Clathrate usage can be reduced through training the Icon skillbook2.png Tactical Weapon Reconfiguration skill, which is require to use the Siege Module.

Force Auxiliary

Triage Module

Main article: Force Auxiliaries - The Triage Module
Icon triage.png

An electronic interface designed to augment and enhance a Force Auxiliary Ship's defenses and logistical abilities. Through a series of electromagnetic polarity field shifts, the triage module diverts energy from the ship's propulsion and warp systems to lend additional power to its defensive and logistical capabilities.


The Triage Module is a high slot module available only to Force Auxiliaries (FAX). Analogous to the Siege Module, it uses Strontium Clathrates to improve the FAX's remote and local repair capabilities, with a 300 second duration, and at the expense of movement and remote assistance capabilities.

Carriers/Supercarriers

Fighter Support Unit

Main article: Fighters - Fighter Improving Modules

Icon fighter support unit.png A combination of additional fighter hangar support drones, fighter power transmitters and advanced sensor support, the Fighter Support Unit assist all areas of fighter operation.

Fittable to Carriers, Supercarriers, and the Caiman and Komodo Guristas ships, the Fighter Support Unit (FSU) boosts the velocity, fire rate, shield and shield recharge rate of fighters controlled by the ship. While its effects are stacking penalized, they do not have a bonus to drone damage. This means that FSUs can offer a notable damage bonus on top of bonuses from Drone Damage Amplifiers.

Networked Sensor Array

Icon signal amplifier.png

The Networked Sensor Array is a module that greatly increases the scan resolution of a carrier or supercarrier and increases the sensor strength of the carrier and its fighters over a 60 second duration. This comes at the expense of being unable to warp or use electronic warfare modules while it is active.

  • 500% bonus to Scan Resolution
  • 50% bonus to sensor strength
  • Disables the use of electronic warfare modules
  • Disables warp drive (applies 100 points of warp disruption)

Burst Projectors

Icon energy neutralization burst projector.png

Fittable only to Supercarriers, Burst Projectors are area of effect generators that can apply a tackle or EWAR effect in a 10km radius anywhere within a 500km range (200km for Energy Neutralization and Stasis Webification), after a 10 second spool up. They consume Heavy Water to operate. Each projector's AOE effect has a shorter duration than that of the module itself. The module duration can be reduced through the Icon skillbook2.png Burst Projector Operation skill.

Type Effect AOE Duration (s) Module duration (s)
ECM Jammer Rainbow 5 strength jam 40 300
Energy Neutralization 3000 GJ Neutralization, 500m Signature Radius N/A 480
Sensor Dampening -18% Targeting Range, -18% Scan Resolution 60 300
Stasis Webification -55% Velocity 40 480
Target Illumination 35% Increased Signature Radius 60 300
Warp Disruption Infinite Point Bubble 40 480
Weapon Disruption -14% Explosion Velocity, +14% Explosion Radius, -11% Flight Time
-20% Optimal Range, -20% Falloff, -20% Tracking Speed
60 300

Notes:

  • Ships jammed by the ECM Jammer Burst Projector can not target the supercarrier that generated it.
  • The Warp Disruption Burst Projector generates a warp disruption bubble in the targeted area for the listed duration. See Tackle for more details on interdiction bubble mechanics.

Titans

Superweapons

Icon doomsday.png

Titans have a variety of superweapons to choose from. A titan can only fit one superweapon at any given time. Aside from the Phenomena Generators, all Superweapons will leave the titan immobile for 30 seconds after their use. Using a superweapon either costs racial isotopes for racial-specific superweapons, or Strontium Clathrates for non-racial superweapons. Titans will also be unable to dock, tether, or use their jump drive for 5 minutes. Area-of-Effect Damage-over-Time superweapons (Lances, Reapers, and the Bosonic Field Generator) all have a Signature Radius attribute, and ships with signature radii smaller than said attribute will take reduced damage, corresponding to the ratio of the two. Furthermore, all Area-of-Effect superweapons also release a 10km radius, 35,000GJ energy neutralizing pulse when they begin charging to fire. This neutralization pulse has a 20km signature radius, and thus only applies its full effect to other titans.

Doomsday weapons all have 5 minute cycle times, however the skill Icon skillbook2.png Doomsday Rapid Firing reduces this by 12 seconds per level down to at minimum 4 minutes. Furthermore, the damage of doomsday weapons can be increased by the Icon skillbook2.png Doomsday Operation skill by 10% per level.

Doomsdays

Doomsdays (DD) are single-target, high damage weapons. Each empire has its own damage variant that can only be fitted to that faction (or an associated pirate faction)'s titan, which can only target capital ships and deals 1,000,000 damage in its one shot.

Lances

Lances target a 2.5km-radius, 200km long line, and deal up to 50,000 damage per second for 15 seconds to all ships within the beam. Lances have a damage signature radius of 5km. Similar to Doomsdays, each empire has a variant of the lance with a different damage type, and restricted to their own faction or pirate faction's titan.

Reapers

Similar to Lances, Reapers deal up to 100,000 damage per second, with a signature radius of 3500m, to ships within a 5 km radius lance over a 10 second period. The beam however is not stationary, and will sweep between two points in space. The Reaper has a range of 150 km, and each empire has a variant of the reaper for their respective titans.

Bosonic Field Generator

The Bosonic Field Generator (Boson) is a non-racial superweapon that deals up to 40,000 Omni damage per second, with a signature radius of 10km, in a large cone over 20 seconds. The exact angle of this cone is not specified in-game. The Boson can be used by any titan.


Gravitational Transportation Field Oscillator

Unlike the other superweapons above, the Gravitational Transportation Field Oscillator (GTFO) does no damage. Instead, it teleports all subcapital ships in a 10km radius sphere to a random location somewhere else in the system. Those ships will then be unable to warp for 60 seconds.

Phenomena Generator

Icon gallente phenomena generator.png

Replacing the passive stat bonuses that Titans gave prior to the Ascension Update in 2016, Phenomena Generators are empire-specific modules that give all ships within a 20,000 km range a set of buffs and debuffs. These vary based on race, and are listed below:

Amarr Caldari Gallente Minmatar
+30% capacitor recharge rate +30% shield hitpoints +30% armor hitpoints -30% signature radius
+10% kinetic resistances +10% EM resistances +10% explosive resistances +10% thermal resistances
-15% EM resistances -15% kinetic resistances -15% thermal resistances -15% explosive resistances
-10% velocity -10% remote armor repairer effectiveness -10% remote shield booster effectiveness -10% hybrid turret and energy turret optimal range

While the empire titans are limited to their respective empire's Phenomena Generator, pirate faction titans (Komodo, Molok, and Vanquisher) can choose between two Phenomena Generators based on their hull bonus (e.g. the Molok can choose between the Amarr and Minmatar Phenomena Generator)

Jump Portal Generator

Main article: Jump Drives - Bridging
Icon jump portal generator.png

A piece of machinery designed to allow a capital vessel to create a bridge between systems without the use of a stargate, allowing its companions access through vast tracts of space to join it on the battlefield.


The Jump Portal Generator is a high slot module that enables a Titan to generate a portal to a cynosural field, enabling ships without a jump drive to jump to the beacon. It costs 500 Strontium Clathrates to activate for 1 minute, and consumes Isotopes from the titan's fuel bay based on the mass of ships jumping through.

Rorqual

Industrial Core

Module icon industrial core i.png

The Industrial Core confers strong mining, boosting, and shield boosting capabilities onto a Rorqual. 1000 Heavy Water is used to activate the industrial core to run the Industrial Core over a 5 minute period. The amount of heavy water used can be reduced using the Icon skillbook2.png Industrial Reconfiguration skill.

When activated, it has the following effects:

  • -100% maximum velocity
  • 80% bonus to Drone damage and hitpoints (T2: 100%)
  • 25% bonus to Drone velocity (T2: 30%)
  • 400% bonus to Drone ore mining yield (T2: 500%)
  • -75% bonus to Ice harvesting speed (T2: -80%)
  • 30% bonus to Mining Foreman Burst strength (T2: 36%)
  • 150% bonus to Command Burst range (T2: 200%)
  • 100% bonus to Capital Remote Shield Booster range (T2: 120%)
  • -75% bonus to Capital Remote Shield Booster duration and capacitor use
  • -60% bonus to Shield Booster duration (T2: 75%)
  • 60% bonus to Shield Booster amount
  • -75% bonus to Sensor Dampener Resistance (T2: 80%)
  • 100% bonus to Scan Resolution (T2: 120%)
  • Immune to ECM
  • -80% malus to Remote Assistance
  • Cannot receive remote repairs

Pulse Activated Nexus Invulnerability Core

Icon panic.png Adapted from technology originally released with Citadels, the Pulse Activated Nexus Invulnerability Core is the result of Upwell's tireless research into advanced shielding. This powerful module allows a Rorqual to make itself and industrial fleetmates nearly invulnerable for a short time.

The Pulse Activated Nexus Invulnerability Core (or PANIC) is a high slot module only usable by the Rorqual. It confers invulnerability to the fitted Rorqual and nearby barges and industrial ships (although not other Rorquals), but the invulnerable ships are unable to move, do damage, or warp. The PANIC burns out after a single use. It has a 4-minute base duration, which can be increased with levels in Icon skillbook2.png Invulnerability Core Operation up to 6 minutes.
