What is a carrier good for outside PVP?

Besides logistics, lvl 5 missions, and hauling. Specifically a Thanatos.

  1. Fighter Support: sit outside station or pos and assign fighters to ppl in gang, like interceptors.
  2. Sanctums / Havens: Use your fighters to make isk fast.
  3. Triage Mode: Turn on triage and turn on the local and rote reps. Capital Reppers do double the repair amount and half the distance while the module is on.
  4. Hot Dropping: Get yourself 2-3 Sensor Boosters (scan res scripts) and a falcon or battleship. Take the Falcon out, find some bad guys ratting, hit ECM and CYNO, drop your carrier on top. Have carrier rep the falcon and kill the target. Warp him back to the cyno beacon.

Note on sanctums: Thanatos is superior to all other carriers. W/ Max skills a Thanatos gets 15 fighters + 50 % dmg bonus = 22.5 Fighters worth of damage. 22.5 vs 15 on any other max skilled carrier.

Non-pvp, and hands on. And the 15 fighters is only if I use 5 Drone control units which would take up all my high-slots and severely hamper what I can do.

Well if u are running sanctums, i run 4 DCU and a cap armor rep to fix drones.

A carrier can sit in a POS and give fighter support for ratters and people running anomalies in a system, effectively giving them twice the isk-income.

I was hoping for something a little more ‘hands on.’
