Vigil - Poor Man Interceptor

Starwalker had noted the need for bookmarks but typically used his combat ship to create those bookmarks. The problem was that this was not a good way, as ideally a fast or cloaked ship would be better.

Given that Starwalker did not have the Interceptor skill yet and access to really fast ships, the alternative was to use something like the Vigil as a poor man’s interceptor. The advantage of the Vigil was its speed and whilst it was not designed to brawl with other frigates they would have to catch it first. Starwalker fitted the Vigil for speed and focused on a medium shield extender combined with a dual propulsion system.

Of course, it could be fit for combat with just one propulsion unit and a scrambler but Starwalker had not run into any industrial or transport ships. The ship was mainly for setting up bookmarks. In retrospect, perhaps it was not such a good idea to have this dedicated ship as how often would it get used? Starwalker had certainly not developed an insatiable urge to go bookmarking systems.
