Summary

The Gnosis is a Jove battlecruiser, with one given to every Omega player on EVE Online's birthday every year as well as on other occasions such as the introduction of alpha clones. The Gnosis has a balanced slot layout and resist profile, allowing it to fit a strong armor or shield tank, at the expense of being the slowest battlecruiser in the game. Whilst the Gnosis' turret damage is rather uninspiring on its own, due to only possessing 5 turret/missile slots, the additional drone bonus helps alleviate this significantly. All in all, the Gnosis has the ability to fit an impressive tank and deal a decent amount of damage. The Gnosis' bonus to scanner probe strength and versatility makes it a favorable PvE ship if battleships are out of the question. Prior to the Arms Race release on December 5th 2017, the Gnosis was unique for alpha clones because it was the only battlecruiser alpha clones could fly.

The Gnosis is immensely popular in low-security space for solo and small gang pvp where it is primarily flown as a hull-tanked blaster brawler, using its 6 mids to wield a fearsome array of tackle and ewar. It is also a popular gatecamping ship as it has the highest base scan resolution of all battlecruisers (and even exceeds some cruisers in that regard), and as such can be instalock fit using Sensor Boosters and logi support.

Skills

Like all other battlecruisers, the Gnosis benefits massively from a T2 tank, T2 drones and T2 weapons, despite its seemingly low skill requirements mentioned above.

Tactics

The Gnosis is a very versatile ship. Weapons: It can utilize most medium weapon types well. Tank: With its equal armor and shield amount and resists, it can be both shield and armor tanked, and even both if you want to bait in it. Some even choose to hull tank it.

It can be both a PvE combat ship, an exploration ship or a PvP fit. The Gnosis sees frequent use in exploration ghost sites.
