¶ Summary
The Panther is the Minmatar Black Ops. It has four bonuses for projectile turrets and, furthermore, the highest base speed of all battleship hulls. However, because it has a high mass (nearly 150 kt), its speed with a propulsion module isn’t as impressive.
Panthers commonly use armor buffer tanks and fill a DPS role. Despite the Panther’s DPS bonuses, which make the five turret hardpoints correspond to ten unbonused turrets, it cannot match the DPS of the Redeemer, which can mount a battery corresponding to twelve unbonused turrets and also usually fits one more damage-bonus module. In most situations, the Panther’s additional mid (typically used for a web) and high (typically used for another energy neutralizer) don’t compensate for the lower DPS.
Due to the Panther’s high base speed, it’s also sometimes fitted for kiting with nanofiber modules. In this configuration, the pilot can pull range with a residual heated MWD cycle while cloaked.
