Heron


Eve Online Exploration - Heron Ship Fitting




 

Description

 

The Heron has good computer and electronic systems, giving it the option of participating in electronic warfare. But it has relatively poor defenses and limited weaponry, so it's more commonly used for scouting and exploration.

Explained

 

Author's Note: I will assume that you have trained frigate up to level 4 and alpha maxed your scanning, which means all scanning skills to level 3 which is max for Alpha.

High Slots

 

A core probe launcher I is really enough. The only expensive item here are the sisters core scanner probes (About 3 million for 8 of them) but you can also go for the usual ones. The sisters has 44 scan strength and the normal one 40.

Medium Slots

 

The Heron has 5 medium slots which is amazing because you can really fit everything in that you need. So we have both Relic/Data Analyzers, a cargo scanner, a 5MN Microwarpdrive, and the Scan Rangefinding Array I to complete the set. All you really need for wormholes.


Low Slots


Nanofiber Internal Structure I 2x because we are already flying a fragile ship and we are avoiding combat at all cost so more speed is welcome

Rig Slots

 

Small Gravity Capacitor Upgrade 2x as it adds scan strength which you need to find all those sites. You could get 1 Small Emission Scope Sharpener I instead this will give you +10 Relic Virus Coherence Bonus.

Virus Coherence is your hacking "health bar".
