This ship has been heavily modified - and poorly maintained - by its pirate crew.

Ships that would be decommissioned in quieter times now see widespread use throughout the Sector. The hull designation for such ships is usually tagged with a "D", for "damaged" or "defective".

The Wolf provides a highly mobile ship with subpar weapons in an affordable package. The Phase Skimmer is key to using the Wolf effectively; an extremely versatile system, the Skimmer can be used to evade weapons fire, setup a better attack angle, or just move around the map. Thanks to the Skimmer - and the Wolf's otherwise fragile hull - the ship works best in a "hit and run" role against small and large targets alike.The ship's ability allows it not only aggressive movement potential, but also to escape from a sticky situation at a moment's notice should the player overextend. It is also a fast enough ship to catch up to most targets and still packs a punch in combat, making it a good ship for early-game bounty hunting.
The lack of any kinetic weapons makes the Wolf struggle versus shielded targets when alone: combine it with other flanking allies and jump in and out of combat to compensate.
The low turreted firepower and fixed front shield make the Wolf exceptionally vulnerable to fighters.
The Wolf is fast enough that its phase skimmer system can be used to "joust" against targets. This involves approaching the target at high speed, locking it in as primary target and activating the phase skimmer just before colliding. This will cause the Wolf to teleport forward based on its momentum which can carry it to the other side of the target. If a target is locked in then it will also re-orientate itself post-teleport to face the target. Highly effective against small or thin target profiles, particularly front shielded targets
