The Heron is a Tech I exploration frigate in EVE Online, designed for the Caldari faction. It's known for its excellent scanning bonuses, making it one of the best ships for exploration early in the game. Key Features of the Heron: Role: Exploration (data/relic sites, scanning, hacking) Bonuses: - +10% to probe scan strength per level of Frigate skill - +5% to virus coherence per level of Caldari Frigate skill Slot Layout: - High Slots: 2 (can fit a probe launcher and a small weapon or tractor beam) - Mid Slots: 4 (great for scanning modules, cloaking, or propulsion) - Low Slots: 2 (can fit a cargo scanner or tank modules) Drones: 5m³ bandwidth (can field 1 light drone) Cargo Hold: 220m³ (can be expanded with expanders) Common Fits for the Heron: Exploration Fit (Relic/Data Sites) High: - Core Probe Launcher - (Optional) Small weapon or tractor beam Mid: - Relic Analyzer - Data Analyzer - Scan Rangefinding Array (or Scan Acquisition Array) - 1MN Microwarpdrive (or Afterburner) Low: - Nanofiber Internal Structure (for agility) - Cargo Scanner (optional) Rigs: - Small Gravity Capacitor Upgrade I (scanning bonus) - Small Memetic Algorithm Bank I (hacking bonus) Cloaky Explorer (Safer for Nullsec/Wormholes) Swap one mid-slot for a Covert Ops Cloaking Device II (requires Cloaking IV). Use a Microwarpdrive to quickly escape if decloaked. Why Use a Heron? Best scanning bonuses among T1 exploration frigates. Fast and agile, making it easy to escape danger. Cheap and disposable, great for learning exploration. Upgrades: Later, you can train into Covert Ops Frigates (Buzzard, the Caldari T2 explorer) for better bonuses and cloaking. Would you like a specific fit for high-sec, low-sec, or nullsec exploration?

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
