==Description==
==Description==
The '''Catalyst''' is a durable dreadnought with decent weaponry, capable of being a versatile support ship in all situations except against swarms or when fighting small and fast ships. The balanced health pool of 12,770 HP allows it to tank in [[Sieging|sieges]] against a variety of bases, while the heavy-medium armament (being something like an opposite counterpart to the armament seen on the [[Apocalypse]] in terms of damage output) allows it to perform a support role well in PvP combat against other [[:Category:Capital Ship|capital ships]]. However, there are a couple major downsides. One being that the '''Catalyst''' by comparison to other dreadnoughts, has mediocre damage output. The other, is that the ship suffers from sluggish maneuverability; which combined with the relatively poor accuracy on the armament makes it prone to being swarmed, or even harassed by fast [[:Category:Battleship|battleships]].
