Summary

The Catalyst is the gallente destroyer. Its bonuses favor blasters, though it can also be rail fit. It has 2 mids, allowing it to fit a tackle module, and 3 low slots for an armor tank. Unfortunately the catalyst is still a destroyer, so it has a large signature for its tank, making it vulnerable to cruiser weapons, and it's slower than a frigate meaning it will have difficulty staying in blaster range. A railgun fit catalyst is however a very fast l1 mission runner, but has trouble tanking level 2s.

The catalyst is also a great entry-level salvage-dedicated ship on a players path to a Noctis.[1]
