* Your choice of laser crystals - choose one that gives you a range over 6km (to avoid smartbomb range). Since lasers can change ammo type instantly, you may also wish to carry mid and long ranged crystals, although this is not required.<br>

* Spare Light Armor Maintenance Bots.

These are optional, but some of these are extremely cheap to purchase in trade hubs. Next to each rig in parentheses is the number of calibration points it requires. Crucifier has 400 calibration points in total:
+
*Small Tracking Diagnostic Subroutines I (200) - increases tracking disruptor effectiveness, decreases shield amount
+
*Small Particle Dispersion Projector I (100) - increases EWAR optimal range, decreases shield amount
+
*Small Low Friction Nozzle Joints I (50) - improves ship's agility so you can warp out faster, decreases armor amount
+
*Small Auxiliary Thrusters I (100) - increases ship's max velocity, decreases armor amount
+
 
+
Due to the high calibration requirement of the tracking disruptor strength rig, fitting 2 of it will leave you unable to fit a 3rd rig, although this will give you the highest possible tracking disruptor effectiveness.

General Info

  • Bonuses: 7.5% bonus to Tracking Disruptor effectiveness and 10% bonus to Tracking Disruptor optimal range

The Crucifier is an excellent electronic warfare platform. With its tracking disruptor bonus, it can single-handedly shut down an opposing turret ship, and is a great addition to any gang. When fitting a Crucifier, remember that you are not there as a DPS ship - your focus should be on maximizing the effectiveness of your tracking disruptors. The best way to fly the Crucifier, as is true of any of the Disruption Frigates, is at the optimal range of your EWAR modules, not the optimal range of your guns. One good thing to use your guns for is to blow up any drones sent after you.

Keep an eye on your capacitor during combat, especially if you have relatively low skills.

Additional Notes

You should carry with you:

  • A mix of short and long range ammunition. (Multifrequency for shortest range, Radio for longest range)
  • One each of both scripts for your tracking disruptors

Example EFT Copy & Paste

This is a suggested T1 fit; it does require Electronics Upgrades I. With the afterburner and guns not running, this fit is cap stable; with afterburner and all three tracks activated, your cap will last at least 3 minutes.

With this fit, you can target at 101km (83km if you drop the ionic field rig). Your tracking disruptors will have an optimal range of 69km plus 22km falloff (91km total).

Alumni Only: Unlike many of our other suggested fits, we don't have an Alumni-specific recommended fit for the Crucifier. The T2 fit listed above is ridiculously effective, and quite recommended. Alumni are welcome to drop the afterburner for a microwarpdrive, but you'll have to plug in a 1% or 2% powergrid implant in order to get a microwarpdrive to fit.
