I have found one more. Wait for it... wait for it... the censorship.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

I forgot about the echelon, what was it designed for again? .


TheEchelon was given away for Incursions & was incredibly fail as a hacking ship because it is so slow & hacking towers were 70 km out

"What is the worst and most useless ship in EVE"


In my opinion, all kinds of capitals and titans, in usage only when pos-sov war, totaly boring and useless in normal comabt- battle, also expensiv.

Love all small and med ships even battleships but capitals... Not my things...

EvE isn't game, its style of living.

Anyone who hasn't immediately replied 'Moa' without so much as a nanosecond of hesitation, has obviously never undocked in one.

Trying to fly one of these 'things' (they're not ships) as the first cruiser I ever used in Eve, was possibly the most frustrating, infuriating, and embittering experience of my life, and believe me, there have been a few stonkers of those along the way.

It's just no use at anything at all, and the frequency with which it explodes as soon as something appears on everview just makes you question if Eve is really the correct game for you, or indeed, if life is worth bothering with anymore.

If I ever found myself in a station, miles from home, and the only ship available was a Moa, I'd immediately undock, self-destruct it, then do the same in my pod and take the clone express. I'd sooner attempt PvP in a shuttle (provided it's a Minmatar one so I can pretend I'm Luke and R2D2 is riding shotgun, and I can do the bleep....woooo! noises myself)

Phantasm isn't that bad. Slap two large ASBs on it and it's a workable solo PVP ship.

Naglfar. It should use 3 projectiles.

The worst and most useless ship...


I fear that it's probably whatever ship I happen to be piloting at any time.

I don't think I would ever pilot one of those special edition Iterons. I think one of the Quafe ones goes for over 3.5B ISK. Even the less expensive ones are just major killboard targets for solo gankers. Not sure who would buy one of these and am not sure why CCP would choose an Iteron for a special edition instead of a blockade runner which might survive for a little while. I like the special edition shuttles though, since they are harder to target, cost much less, and look cool.

I like Caldari ships alot, but i cannot think of an uglier and more useless ship than that. Not much power, not much in defenses, not much speed even MWD fit. What ever sleek design it is supposed to have is completely lost in a ship that looks like an over sized coffee stir stick. Very little improvement in its T2 variation with a rather hideous paint job.


The Cerberus is pretty terrible, but the Caracal owns. We've been using them in HAM setups in 30-40 man fleets to great effect.

LOL!!!


However I pick the Breacher, just because of the terrible DPS.

Protect me from knowing what I don't need to know. Protect me from even knowing that there are things to know that I don't know. Protect me from knowing that I decided not to know about the things that I decided not to know about. Amen.

Picking on lower tier frigates shouldn't constitute picking your fights.

The Munnin, the T2 Rupture. It's absolutely worthless now that new BCs, T3, BS tracking rigs, and countless other new additions have overshadowed its role. Ask yourself, have you ever seen a Munnin?

The Munnin is perfect as anti-tackle support in shield snipe fleets.

It works quite well against a few T1 cruisers, some navy cruisers, and recons.
Is it underpowered? Yes. But it's not nearly what I'd consider "worst and most useless".
Give it another mid slot, more speed and agility, a bit more CPU, and more cargo space and it would be a beast.

As for my list:
Sentinel, Heretic, Cerberus, Eagle, pretty much any navy faction cruiser except for Stabber FI, Ashimmu, Nighthawk, Astarte, Raven, Raven NI, all the marauders, all the black ops, Phoenix, Revelation (Naglfar will soon be far superior), Hel, Revenant.

That could be said of many crap ships. Even a turd can be polished,* if you give it a bit of work.


*As demonstrated by Mythbusters.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

I often get top damage with a Breacher in frigate fleets. However the fact that many people feel the way you do probably accounts for why my Breachers seem to live longer than any ship in gang other than the Punishers. Smile

I'll also point out that the Punishers are usually the core group that survives long enough to finish the last bits of resistance and hold the field when all is said and done.

Whatever came before, the Prophecy now most certainly is most useless ship, even though it still looks good

I mean, missiler launchers, but drone bonuses??

The Proph is a frikken monster! It has 7 lows for tank or gank. You never know what a ship like that will bring to the game and that is worth a lot on its own. Huge drone bay for several different setups ready to go. All with an excellent resist bonus, and a great price.

I get the distinct feeling that I have just been thoroughly trolled.
