This article should be cleaned up or improved. The reason is: unspecified

The Gallente Basic Ship and Skill Guide is intended to give fitting and skill recommendations for Tech 1 Gallente ships for Player vs. Environment (PvE) and Player vs. Player (PvP) encounters.

This is a work in progress, and the guide's Discussion Thread is on the Eve University forum. Please direct comments, suggestions, and corrections to that thread.

Contents

Rookie Ship

The rookie ship is the first ship you start with. If you are Gallente, it will be a Velator. A new rookie ship is given whenever you dock at a station where you do not have any ships.

Velator

The Velator can be used to go through the first tutorial missions, although upgrading to a frigate in the Military tutorial as soon as it is offered is recommended. A civilian shield booster will suffice for the first missions, although beyond the first few missions in the tutorial, civilian modules should never be used.

Frigate

Frigates are small fast ships, used mostly for pve in level 1 missions. They are used mostly for tackling and electronic warfare roles in pvp.

Atron

The Atron is the Gallente fast frigate, although only having two mid slots makes it unloved for tackling in pvp despite its speed and high scan resolution.

It can serve as a level 1 mission runner until Gallente Frigate III is trained for the Incursus, and Destroyers I for the Catalyst.

  • This fitting will require the some gunnery skills to have enough DPS to break Dagan's tank. See the recommended skills for the standard PVE Incursus.
  • This fitting should break Dagan's tank in 15 minutes or less depending on his resists, which can vary.
  • While orbiting at 500m, Dagan's guns should not be able to track the Incursus. If your own guns have difficulty tracking at full speed, reduce speed to 75%.
  • This fitting should also work well against Kristan Parthus.

  • The microwarpdrive can be replaced with an afterburner for those who don't have the High Speed Maneuvering skill yet.
  • Electronics IV is required to fit the third 75mm railgun with listed fitting. With Electronics III two 75mm rails will do, or the MWD can be switched to an Afterburner.
  • For Uni fleets, ammo that gives an optimal range of approximately 7,500m (iridium with recommended skills when using 75mm rails) is ideal to orbit battleships at this distance to avoid smartbomb range. This may vary according to skills. Although dealing damage is not a tackler's priority, and cap should not be wasted on guns if it is needed to maintain tackle in prolonged encounters.

Maulus

The Maulus is an electronic warfare frigate, specialized in dampening. Its low locking range makes it ineffecitve at range damping snipers. However, it can resolution damp effectively with the help of ECM in the fleet.

  • The afterburner should only be used to get out of smartbomb range, or to go to optimal orbit in a defensive gate camp. Running the afterburner while damping will cap out the ship shortly.
  • Like other frigates, the Maulus is at risk of being popped quickly by smartbomb fitted battleships. Range should be maintained over 7,500m from battleships unless they are seen shooting from gun ports. Like the incursus tackler, an optimal range of 7,500m is recommended for Uni fleets (uranium with recommended skills when using 125mm rails).
  • The empty high slot can be used for a nosferatu if the afterburner is switched out for a third damper. The nosferatu should usually not be used on battleships due to its short range and the risk of smartbombs. Without the nosferatu sucking cap, the maulus can quickly cap out. Cap should be closely monitored, especially in extended engagements if you use guns.

Tristan

The tristan is an excellent pvp frigate, but requires missile skills to use effectively, which many Gallente players will not train early in their career. It is also slower and has less scan resolution than the Incursus, making it a worse tackler for typical Uni fleets.

Destroyer

Destroyers are ships slightly larger than frigates. They use the same sized modules as frigates, have more high slots. They are often used in pve for level 1 missions. They are rarely used in pvp, as their DPS is unimpressive without high skills, although they sometimes fill the role of anti-interceptor.

Flying destroyers is not recommended for typical Uni fleets, unless it is for a specialized Thrasher Hit & Run fleet.

Catalyst

The Catalyst has 8 high slots, all of which can be fitted with guns. It is the typical level 1 mission runner ship for Gallente pilots once they have amassed enough ISK to purchase it and fit it out.

The Catalyst is also used as a salvaging boat.

  • The low slots on a salvaging boat can vary. The co-processor is only needed if you lack cpu. The capacitor power relays help running the modules for longer periods of time, especially if cap skills are low. Cargo expanders can be of use in missions with many wrecks to loot. Even with cargo expanders, a destroyer will often run out of cargo space in level 4 missions.
  • Rigs are optional, they're a bit expensive for most newbies. The salvage tackle rigs can be changed to capacitor control circuit rigs if cap runs out too often, or for small cargohold optimization if cargo space runs out.
  • If salvaging sleeper sites in wormhole space, it is recommended to replace one tractor and one salvager by a prototype cloaking device and a core probe launcher.

Cruiser

Celestis

The Celestis the the Gallente EW cruiser. Damps have a poor optimal, and even in falloff, it has difficulty applying damps at typical sniper range. Although it can do well with range damping against mid-range snipers up to 100 km or so. Resolution damping is made much more useful with ECM on the field as well.

Exequror

The Exequror is the Gallente logistics cruiser. It is not often used in pvp. It has a cargo bay bonus which can make it useful for players on trial accounts who cannot train industrial ships. An Exequror fitted with Expanded Cargohold in low slots can haul over 1000 m3 in its cargo bay.

  • Small RR range on an Exeq is 24 km.
  • Meant for small gangs made up in part or fully of Exequrors. The tracking disruptor and scram should probably by mixed around the gang, with some having damps and warp disruptors instead (and perhaps some webs).

Thorax

The Thorax is the first ship newbie pilots should look at to fill a damage dealing role in pvp fleets. Its bonus to MWD cap and high DPS potential make it an excellent heavy tackler.

  • If you're missing CPU due to not having Electronics IV and Weapon Upgrades IV, you can upgrade some modules to a higher meta level to reduce cpu required. You could also use a 200mm plate instead of the 400mm.
  • Faction ammo is not required, but the benefit to DPS is substantial. A full load of Caldari Navy Antimatter Charge M (600 rounds total, 120 rounds per gun) costs around 600,000 ISK. More rounds are rarely needed, but having 2000 additional standard antimatter rounds in case of ratting or long engagements is recommended.

  • This training plan should take 1 month or so to complete, although this will vary a lot with learning skills, implants, and neural remap.
  • With the recommended skill list, EFT calculates DPS at 332 and EHP at 11,111. Cap stable at 43% with MWD inactive. New pilots looking to get into the Thorax early should aim for 300 dps with faction antimatter and 10k EHP minimum.

  • A basic fit for class 1 wormholes in gangs.
  • A cheaper version would have Dual 150mm Compressed Coil Gun I, as the meta 3 medium rails are much less expensive than the meta 4. Rigs are optional, warping out might be required more often without them. T1 modules can be used if skills aren't high enough for T2.

Vexor

The Vexor, like the Mymidon and Dominix, is a drone boat. The drone boats are excellent pve ships, and they are also good pvp ships. Drone boats are sometimes fitted with tractors and salvagers to salvage wrecks during missions, this lowers dps, and thus increases mission completion time. Although it also saves time from not having to return to the mission site in another ship to salvage, but wether this saves time in total or merely makes it more convenient is debatable.

The Vexor is also an excellent pvp ship. For low skill pilots, it is usually easier to get DPS out of the Thorax, even with more skills in drones than gunnery.

  • The hardeners and drones should be switched around depending on the rat types.
  • The damage control can be substituted for a third rat-specific hardener, especially on missions with a lot of explosive damage.
  • The Drone Link Augmentor can be left out if you don't have enough CPU. Electronics IV and Weapon Upgrades III should provide the required CPU.
  • Rigs are relatively expensive and they can be left out when starting level 2 missions if you have insufficient ISK.

Industrial

Iteron

The Iteron line of ships, from I to V, are excellent haulers. The Iteron V when rigged is the industrial ship with the largest cargo capacity, although for most players and Iteron I or III will suffice. Industrials can be used to store mission loot and salvage, to haul at a later time and sell at a trade hub for more ISK than can be made in most backwater mission stations.

  • An Iteron III fitted like this is a moderate skill investement, and can carry up to 17,672 m3.
  • A repackaged frigate is 2,500 m3, a repackaged destroyer is 5,000 m3, a repackaged cruiser is 10,000 m3, and a repackaged battlecruiser is 15,000 m3.
  • For war time hauling, a hauling alt is recommended. For this purpose, an Amarr pilot trained for a Bestower is best for the least skill investment. See the Creating an Alt Hauler article for more information.
  • Industrial ships are easily suicide ganked in highsec. Suicide ganks are more likely close to trade hubs, or on paths between trade hubs, especially in 0.5 or 0.6 systems. If you are carrying less than 20 million ISK in goods, a suicide gank is extremely unlikely. Many suicide gankers will not bother with cargo worth less than 50 million ISK, but some will. Some suicide gankers will do it simply to cause grief rather than for profit. The shield tank fitted is mostly to avoid random suicide ganks from ships with low firepower or untargeted smartbomb suicide ganks. See 'The Dark Side of Eve' in the Audio Library for more information about suicide ganking and how to avoid it.

Battlecruiser

Brutix

The Brutix is reknowned for its high DPS potential in pvp. It is also a popular suicide gank ship.

Although Gallente ships are usually better armor tanked, the Brutix benefits from a shield tank in several areas. Low slots can be dedicated to gank modules to increase DPS. The shield tank Brutix also has the advantage of being faster than an armor tank, which means it can get into the short blaster range sooner.

  • This Brutix is very cheap to fit, and after insurance is collected it costs around 3 million ISK (assuming 20 million was paid for the hull), including 840 units of faction ammo, 2000 units of standard ammo, and 25 units of nanite repair paste. It deals around 461 DPS with 34k EHP with recommended skills.
  • This fit is not suitable for war time in the Uni due to T1 tank. The skill recommendations are kept low for the T1 version, since it is meant to be a disposable ship with a bit more DPS and EHP than a Thorax for regular lowsec patrols during peace time. Pilots who are looking to be effective in a Brutix should aim for the T2 version skill recommendations.

  • This should be able to handle class 1 wormholes, perhaps class 2 in gangs with some RR. It is unlikely to do well in class 3 wormholes.

Myrmidon

The Mymidon is the typical level 3 missioning ship. It can fit a passive shield tank like the Drake, but most Gallente players will focus on armor tanking skills, and its armor repair cap bonus make it an excellent armor tanker. The myrmidon should be fitted with Hobgolins and Hammerheads, as well as Minmatar or Caldari drones depending if the rats are weak to explosive or kinetic damage.

The Myrmidon can also be an excellent pvp ship, though the damage potential is much less than the Brutix. It can have a good buffer tank, and some myrmidon pvp fits have double or triple repair modules. Myrmidons can also be fit and rigged for speed with a shield tank.

  • This Myrmidon uses light neutrons to be able to fit more tank. Since the myrmidon doesn't have a bonus to guns, fitting small guns doesn't have a terrible effect on the DPS. T2 autocannons might be better for pilots that are skilled with them.
  • The most DPS from drones is with 2x Ogres, 2x Hammerheads, and 1x Hobgoblin due to the unusual 75 mb drone bandwidth. However, Ogres may have tracking issues to deal with smaller targets, and travel time can also be an issue depending on the initial engagement range. Pilots without T2 heavy drones might want to have few spare scout drones, and a set of EC-600 drones in case of emergency.

  • This is meant as a utility ship in wormhole fleets. The MWD is needed to get in RR range quickly, unless the gang is set up to be stationary.
  • Tech 2 drones should be used unless they catch too much aggro. Switch to Tech 1 drones if so.
  • This fit well handle class 1 and 2 wormholes relatively well, and perhaps class 3 if the gang is big enough.

Battleship

Dominix

The PVE Dominix fits are cap stable with Energy Management IV and Energy Systems Operation IV, and Fuel Conservation III (for the afterburner version). Meta 4 guns are used since every little bit of DPS helps when doing L4 missions. Normally you should not lose a Dominix to missions, since you should have good drone skills to kill warp jamming frigates fast. The low tank version should be used in easier missions and the high tank in harder missions. Pilots with higher cap skills might want to switch one of the CCC rigs for an Auxiliary Nano Pump. Some people prefer heavy drones, other prefer sentries. Try both and upgrade whichever you prefer to Tech 2. If you use sentries, you might want to consider 1 or 2 Omnidirectional Tracking Links in mid slots, no afterburner.

Hyperion

The Hyperion is unloved by many. In battleship fleets, remote repping is far superior, making the local rep bonus pointless. For Uni operations, it might act as a decent bait ship during peace time lowsec patrols for pilots with too much ISK on their hands.

Ammunition, Range, and Kiting

You should carry 3 types of ammo during missions, and switch when required. By default, close range (antimatter or plutonium) ammo should be used. If you are taking too much damage at close range, switch to medium range (lead or thorium) or long (iron or tungsten) range ammo and fire from further away. Guns can suffer from tracking issues, so I would recommend using the 'keep at range' option instead of the 'orbit' option. With the amount of enemies in missions, orbiting is less likely to mitigate the total incoming damage from rats. Even close to optimal, when orbiting and using close range ammo, guns can sometimes have difficulty tracking enemies. Enemies should be kept close to optimal, this should keep angular velocity low to avoid suffering from tracking issues, and as long as enemies are within optimal there will be no reduction in damage.

Antimatter requires the most cap, has the shortest range, and does the most damage. Lead requires the least cap, has no range modifier, and does middling damage. Iron has the longest range, and the least damage.

To find out your optimal with ammo, load ammo in your guns, then right click and show info. The optimal displayed in the attributes will be adjusted for ammo and skills.

Tech and Meta Levels

These fittings were made mostly using Tech 1 Meta 0 modules, or Tech 2 for larger ships. This is partly to avoid confusion with higher meta names. Also, this insures that ship fittings are relatively cheap to get into without spending too much for new players with cash flow difficulties. And during war, pvp fittings using Tech 1 Meta 0 modules are provided by the university.

Higher Meta items up to meta 4 will often be easier to fit. Tech 2 is Meta 5, and harder to fit. Meta 3 and 4 are expensive, often more expensive than Tech 2. Meta 1 and 2 will often be less expensive than Meta 0, due to supply and demand on the market.

Drones

Small drones should be used against frigate and destroyer sized enemies, medium drones should be used against cruiser and battlecruiser sized enemies, and heavy drones should be used against battleship sized enemies. Sentries are mostly meant for battleship sized enemies, but if smaller enemies are far enough that tracking isnt an issue, they can deal relatively well with those.

Never use Amarr drones, due to their low damage multiplier, they are useless even against enemies who's lowest resistance is EM damage. Gallente drones have the highest damage multiplier, and thermal damage is the best or second best damage to deal against most rat types. For level 1 to 3 missions, gallente drones are fine to use exclusively, although switching drones will make more efficient runs. At level 4 missions, it is strongly recommended to always fit the best drone types to match rat weaknesses.

Drone aggro should be watched. When arriving in a mission room, aggro should be aquired by approaching enemies and shooting them with guns. If a new wave of enemies arrives and the drones catch aggro, they should be recalled to the drone bay, and released only when the enemies have targeted your ship. Under normal circumstances, you should never lose drones when using proper aggro management with rats.

Hot keys are recommended for drone management. They need to be initially launched manually from the drone window, though hot keys can be set for attack and return to drone bay.

In pvp, Gallente and Minmatar drones are used almost exclusively. Gallente drones for their damage potential, Minmatar drones for their speed and explosive damage which armor tankers will not always patch.

Tank & Gank

Different rats (NPC pirates) factions have different damage type resistances, and deal different damage types.

Drones and hardeners should be switched around based on rat types.

Damage type resistance and dealt by rats can be found in the NPC Damage Types article.

Mission-specific damage profiles can be found on Eve Survival.

All EHP in this guide is given with EFT calculations, not in-game EHP.

Salvaging After the Mission

Salvaging boats are usually used to clean up rooms after missions are complete. To do so, make sure you bookmark one wreck for each room in the mission, since the acceleration gates will disappear after the mission has be turned in at the agent. Once the mission is turned in, the MWD can be used to propel the salvaging boat within tractor range faster.

For level 4 missions, many players switch from the destroyer to a battlecruiser. Unfortunately, the Gallente battlecruisers have 6 or 7 high slots, instead of 8 like for some other races. The hurricane is well liked as a salvaging boat for its speed (for a BC sized ship) and 8 high slots.
