eve online vulture

The Vulture is a Force Auxiliary (FA) cruiser in EVE Online, designed for logistics and fleet support. It belongs to the Minmatar Republic and is the Minmatar counterpart to other faction Force Auxiliaries like the Nidhoggur (Caldari), Apostle (Amarr), and Ninazu (Gallente). Key Features of the Vulture: Role: - Remote repair (logistics) Primarily used for shield logistics in fleets. - Cap chain support Can fit Capacitor Transfer modules to sustain other ships. - Fleet Command Can fit Command Burst modules for fleet-wide buffs. Bonuses: - Minmatar Cruiser Skill Bonus: - +10% per level to shield transfer amount. - +10% per level to remote shield boost range. - Force Auxiliary Skill Bonus: - +5% per level to remote shield boost amount. - -5% per level to capacitor warfare resistance. Slot Layout: - High Slots: 4 (can fit remote shield boosters, energy transfers, or small weapons). - Mid Slots: 6 (typically used for capacitor support, propulsion, and tank). - Low Slots: 6 (used for tank, cap stability, or ancillary modules). - Rigs: 3 (usually shield or capacitor-related). Tank & Mobility: - Shield Tanked Naturally strong shield resistances. - Moderate Speed Not as fast as other Minmatar ships but decent for a cruiser-sized FA. - Can Fit Micro Jump Drive (MJD) Useful for repositioning in fleets. Common Fits: - Fleet Logi Vulture: Focused on remote shield repairs and cap stability. - Command Vulture: Uses Command Burst modules for fleet-wide buffs (e.g., Skirmish for speed, Armor/Shield for resistance boosts). - Hybrid Vulture: Mixes logistics and cap transfer for extended fleet support. When to Use the Vulture: Large Fleet Battles: Excellent for shield-based doctrines (e.g., Muninns, Eagles). Small Gang Warfare: Can provide logi support in smaller groups. Capital Escort: Often used alongside carriers/supercarriers for additional repairs. Weaknesses: Capacitor Dependent Needs proper fitting to avoid cap starvation. Slow Compared to Other Logi Cruisers Not as agile as a Scimitar (Minmatar Logistics Frigate). Target Priority Often primary-targeted in fleets due to its importance. Alternatives: Scimitar (Minmatar T2 Logistics Frigate) Faster but less tanky. Nidhoggur/Apostle/Ninazu Other faction Force Auxiliaries (capital-sized logi).
