Overview

Motherships are part of the class of ships known as Super Capitals and are currently the 2nd largest class of ships in EVE.

Technically, a mothership is carrier class vessel which is however many time larger and much more expensive to build.

In comparison to a typical carrier, a mothership has the following features:

There are 4 types of Mothership, 1 for each of the 4 races

Roles

Although all motherships mainly provide logistical and support roles, the bonuses each of the 4 race motherships allow different areas of specialization.

  • Aeons have armor resistance bonuses which allow them to field heavy armor tanks
  • Wyverns have shield resistance bonuses which allow them to field heavy shield tanks
  • Nyxs have deployed fighter bonuses allowing them provide more firepower to offensive operations while fielding a moderate armor tank
  • Hels motherships have their strength as a logistic platform with bonuses to shield/armor remote repair amounts. They are also extremely flexible and are able to field either a modest shield or armor tank
