== Summary ==
The Harbinger is the preferred Amarr battlecruiser, with considerably better performance than the [[Prophecy]]. The Harbinger is a well rounded battlecruiser; it doesn't have the legendary tank of the [[Drake]] or the firepower of the [[Hurricane]], but can be depended on to perform well in any role.
+
The '''Harbinger''' is a well rounded battlecruiser; it doesn't have the legendary tank of the [[Drake]] or the firepower of the [[Hurricane]], but can be depended on to perform well in any role.
  
This battlecruiser is a shield tanked cruiser's nightmare, with the the ability to wield six heavy pulse lasers and still have the CPU and powergrid left over to fit a respectable tank allowing it to wreak havoc on the battlefield. The Harbinger, even with a large tank, ironically has the ability to be rather agile within engagements. Its large CPU and Powergrid gives it the ability to fit a 10MN Microwarpdrive and burn towards many targets that are out of range, while the 50m<sup>3</sup> drone bay and bandwidth allows the Harbinger to field a full flight of medium drones. This particular battlecruiser is a great incentive to train the Battlecruiser skill to at least IV. Lastly, the Harbinger has the ability to be fit either a full armor or shield tank.

The Harbinger, even with a large tank, ironically has the ability to be rather agile within engagements. Its large CPU and Powergrid gives it the ability to fit a 50MN Microwarpdrive and burn towards many targets that are out of range, while the 75 m<sup>3</sup> drone bay and bandwidth allows the Harbinger to field either a full flight of medium drones or a full flight of light drones, depending on circumstances.
  
For [[Incursions]] the Harbinger is not ideal, but can serve as a starting point for trying them out and to use while training into a more suitable ship. See [[Minimum Incursion fits#Amarr ship progression|Amarr ship progression]] for more information on where to go from here.
+
Like many Amarr ships the Harbinger is not the easiest ship to fit, and much will be gained by training fitting skills to at least IV, and V is recommended. This particular battlecruiser is a great incentive to train the Amarr Battlecruiser skill to at least IV. Lastly, the Harbinger has the ability to be fit either a full armor or shield tank.
  
The Retribution 1.1 update removed one turret slot but increased the damage increase per skill level from 5% to 10%, meaning that, with Battlecruiser V trained, the Harbinger does even more damage than before. However, below skills below Battlecruiser IV mean that the Harbinger does less damage than it did pre-patch.

== Skills ==
 +
* '''{{sk|Amarr Battlecruiser}}''' to at least IV to get more DPS out of the Harbinger's lasers and keep it cap stable.
 +
* '''{{sk|Gunnery|V}}''', '''{{sk|Medium Energy Turret|V}}''' and '''{{sk|Medium Pulse Laser Specialization}}''' trained to at least I to fit T2 guns, which do more damage and are ''substantially'' cheaper than the meta 4 variants, and give the pilot the ability to use Scorch ammo.
 +
* While '''{{sk|Medium Beam Laser Specialization}}''' is not as common, there are a number of circumstances where the range of the Beam lasers is appreciated. As with Pulse lasers, the cost of the Tech II Beam Lasers is much lower than the Tech I meta 4.
 +
* '''{{sk|Controlled Bursts|IV}}''', '''{{sk|Capacitor Management|IV}}''', and '''{{sk|Capacitor Systems Operation|IV}}''' are all important for cap management.
 +
* '''{{sk|Rapid Firing|IV}}''', '''{{sk|Surgical Strike|IV}}''' are skills that increase DPS and are thus vital to all turret-based damage dealing ships.
 +
* Along with the obvious '''{{sk|Power Grid Management|V}}''' and '''{{sk|CPU Management|V}}''' fitting skills required for fitting most ships, '''{{sk|Weapon Upgrades|V}}''' should be trained to help with fitting. '''{{sk|Advanced Weapon Upgrades}}''' is also an important skill for pilots wishing to armor tank.
 +
* '''{{sk|Sharpshooter|IV}}''' increases the already impressive optimal range associated with lasers and should be trained as such.
 +
* '''{{sk|Drones|V}}, {{sk|Light Drone Operation|IV}}, {{sk|Drone Interfacing|IV}}, and {{sk|Gallente Drone Specialization|II}}/{{sk|Minmatar Drone Specialization|II}}''' are all are important for getting as much DPS out of the 75 m<sup>3</sup> dronebay as possible.
 +
* '''{{sk|Drone Navigation|III}}''', '''{{sk|Drone Durability|III}}''' and '''{{sk|Drone Sharpshooting|III}}''' are also useful support skills.
 +
* The appropriate skills required for fitting a T2 '''[[Tanking#Armor tanking skills|Armour]]''' or '''[[Tanking#Shield skills|Shield Tank]]'''.

{{expansion past|
The Harbinger was changed in Retribution 1.1 and among other lost one turret slot, Some fittings here may be out of date. Most of them should work by removing one turret.

Right from its very appearance on a battlefield, the Harbinger proclaims its status as a massive weapon, a laser burning through the heart of the ungodly. Everything about it exhibits this focused intent, from the lights on its nose and wings that root out the infidels, to the large number of turreted high slots that serve to destroy them. Should any heathens be left alive after the Harbinger's initial assault, its drones will take care of them.

SHIP BONUSES

Amarr Battlecruiser bonuses (per skill level):
10% reduction in Medium Energy Turret activation cost
10% bonus to Medium Energy Turret damage
Role Bonus:
• Can use one Command Burst module
25% bonus to Medium Energy Turret optimal range and falloff
50% bonus to Command Burst area of effect range

Summary

The Harbinger is a well rounded battlecruiser; it doesn't have the legendary tank of the Drake or the firepower of the Hurricane, but can be depended on to perform well in any role.

This battlecruiser is a shield tanked cruiser's nightmare, with the ability to wield six heavy pulse lasers and still have the CPU and powergrid left over to fit a respectable tank allowing it to wreak havoc on the battlefield. The Harbinger, even with a large tank, ironically has the ability to be rather agile within engagements. Its large CPU and Powergrid gives it the ability to fit a 50MN Microwarpdrive and burn towards many targets that are out of range, while the 75 m3 drone bay and bandwidth allows the Harbinger to field either a full flight of medium drones or a full flight of light drones, depending on circumstances.

Like many Amarr ships the Harbinger is not the easiest ship to fit, and much will be gained by training fitting skills to at least IV, and V is recommended. This particular battlecruiser is a great incentive to train the Amarr Battlecruiser skill to at least IV. Lastly, the Harbinger has the ability to be fit either a full armor or shield tank.

Notes

A harbinger is a "Person or thing that announces or signals the approach of another," analogous to a medieval herald.
