Category:Frigates

"Agile ships for evading and flanking enemy fleets."

Frigates are one of six main types of hulls. They place emphasis on agility, with excellent combat and sector speeds compared to other ships.

Frigates have a moderate 135-degree firing arc and specialize in kiting and dodging. However, they are quite weak and require a lot of skill to use effectively.

Frigates gain a special slot at Mk IV, making them the best cargo haulers of their tier.

Most frigates are named after birds, though the Tier 5 frigates are named after storms.

After the Tornado Frigate, the class finally makes a reappearance with the Umbra, which names its ships after European Mythology.
