A Crowbar is a quick-response ECM ("jamming") ship designed to be used in case of an emergency to "pry" a more valuable ship out of a sticky situation. It is a specific fitting of the Tech I Caldari frigate, the Griffin. The fit is designed to be newbro-friendly (low skill requirements) and cheap (easy to afford and essentially disposable).

The missiles / launchers are primarily to help clear drones from the field (see Tactics, below) but may be omitted to reduce ship costs, if necessary.

If a specific type of jamming is called for, the unnecessary ECM modules may be left behind, and additional modules of the required flavor may optionally be fitted.

Skills required

How to get one

A doctrine-fitted Crowbar costs approximately 1.5M ISK. If you can afford to have your own, they are usually available on corporate contract in the various campus home stations. If you can afford to, it's a good idea to have one (or more) available in each campus you frequent.

In emergencies, if you need one, they may also be borrowed from the campus hangars. (If you don't have the required title to access a specific hangar, ask someone else in the campus for assistance.) If you lose your Crowbar in a QRF action, it should be eligible for reimbursement through the Ship Replacement Program.

When and how to call for Crowbars

Tactics

Fitting appropriate ECM Modules

If the pilot calling for help does so correctly, he should specify by what race/type of ship he is tackled, so crowbar pilots can refit into the appropriate jammers. If no ship or race is specified, it is advised to fit one of each type of jammer, as shown in the fit above. This configuration is known as 'rainbow jammer' because they have all the colors of the respective jammer types
