## Summary
The Hel is basically an oversized Nidhoggur carrier with similar properties. It does tend to have a rougher time in larger capital brawls because its tank is not remarkable, but for drive-by attacks and as a ratting supercarrier it is the best.
## Skills
Minmatar Carrier to V helps a lot for ratting applications.
## Tactics
No sub-article about Hel roles or piloting tactics. You can write them here.
## Notes
In Norse mythology, Hel was a goddess ruling over the underworld, which was also called hel in Old Norse; the word is descended from the same root as present-day English hell. In some mythological accounts, Loki was Hel's father. ## Patch History
