In response to Lontras 5:
The catalyst makes a brilliant anti frigate platform for level 1 and 2 missions and even pvp if fitted and flow properly. Any blaster fit (on the catalyst or otherwise) requires the ship to have an afterburner at least and preferably even an MWD, as you need the speed to quickly close with the enemy.
You could potentially go with a rail fit that does not require an afterburner, however this is not my preference.
Example of a good catalyst fit would be:
High: 8x electron blaster
Med: 1mn afterburner cap recharger
Low: small armor repairer energized adaptive nano membrane armor explosive hardner
rigs: 3x small capacitor control circuit
As of retribution 1.0 this page is no longer up to date, the catalyst's attributes have been changed, and it no longer has a drone bay, nor bandwith. Please update this page to reflect these changes.
