¶ Summary
The Imperial Navy Slicer is a ship with a distinctive role - that of a fast frigate sized kiter/sniper. Its impressive optimal range bonus allows it to snipe at long range with beam lasers, or to kite very effectively with pulse lasers loaded with scorch. It only has 2 turret slots, but its ship bonus can give them the damage of more than 4, while only needing the fitting and cap for two. Finally, the ship has a fast base speed and low mass, making it very quick and agile.
¶ Skills
Amarr Frigate to at least IV to take advantage of the Slicer's 10% bonus to Small Energy Turret optimal range and 25% bonus to Small Energy Turret damage that comes with every extra level in the skill.
With the massive bonus to small energy turret damage and only 2 slots it is highly recommended to have T2 Small Energy Turret with supporting Gunnery skills to maximize the benefit.
