Tactical Modes

Some hulls — most notably Tech 3 destroyers — can switch between tactical modes. Each mode is a different ship configuration: defense mode boosts resistances, speed mode improves agility and velocity, and targeting (sharpshooter) mode extends weapon range and tracking.

On the fitting page, mode-capable ships show a dedicated tactical mode row above the module slots. Tap the row to cycle to the next mode; long-press it to inspect the mode’s attributes.

Switching modes changes the ship’s bonuses and attributes, so DPS, tank, and navigation numbers in the stats panels update immediately. The selected mode is saved with the fit.

See Modules and Slots for slot basics and Attributes and Statistics for reading the numbers each mode produces.
