Roko's Vengeance is a tier 11 frigate used by the Fringe Systems Resistance.

Tactics

A decent FSR ship with little of note about it. Regardless of what defenses and weapons you're using, you'll want to take out Roko's Vengeance's large shields first, and then either go directly for its reactors if you have strong weapons, its disruptors if you're relying on shields, and its cannons and flak otherwise. You can safely leave Vengeance's central reactor and ion beams till the end, as without the support of its other weapons, the four separate beams can't deal enough damage to pose much of a threat.

Strafing and ramming this ship will both be about as effective as each other, preventing Roko's Vengeance from properly targeting its weapons and defending itself. Kiters should also be able to deal with this ship fairly easily - however, kiters should prioritize Vengeance's flak over any other weapons as, without a ship in range, it will shoot down your projectiles. Flanking it will be extremely effective and opens up the opportunity to take out its control room from behind - this is highly recommended as you will be able to salvage a lot more from Roko's Vengeance if you do this: not only do you get the resources from its reactors, but you can also get quite a few diamonds from the ion emitters, ion prisms, and large shields that will all otherwise be destroyed upon detonating Vengeance's reactors.

Trivia
