-Carrier Ratting has long been regarded as the beginning of the endgame for making ISK, with the Rorqual mining and Supercarrier ratting being the only conventional means of making more. Your ticks in this ship skyrocket from the 16-20 million ISK the Gila and Dominix offered, all the way up to 50-55 million ISK. You also gain an obscene amount of tank, and capital status which makes you by default important enough to send a ping and drop our capital forces to save.

 In exchange for this though, the carrier is among the most action-intensive ships to fly in Eve. AFK ratting is not possible with this class of ship, and ontop of this you need to familiarize yourself with the different mechanics surrounding capital ships to give yourself the best chance of survival when ratting, and to make yourself the most ISK.

 ===== Fittings =====
-Ratting carriers are extremely variable in their fittings and can be customized in countless ways. For the sake of simplicity 2 fits are supplied here; a max tank fit which will slightly reduce ticks while giving you some buffer, and a max tick fit which will sacrifice that extra buffer for an extra 15-30 mil per hour.

The fits below may be meta'd down to accommodate your budget and comfort level.

 The tank config of this ship is designed to give you a chance to get support on field if you get tackled. It won't make a difference to a dreadbomb, but with a small-medium sized fleet tackling you, you should be able to survive long enough to get a FAX and support on grid. Even more importantly, this variant includes a capacitor booster to both keep your tank active under neut pressure, and allow you to jump out in an emergency.
