The '''Kikimora''' is a Triglavian destroyer built around sustained ramping damage through its Entropic Disintegrator. It is most commonly used in solo and small gang PvP, where good positioning and time on target allow it to become far more dangerous than its hull size suggests.

== Overview ==
The Kikimora is designed to apply increasing damage the longer it stays on the same target. Unlike burst-oriented destroyers, it rewards patience, discipline, and clean target control.

Compared to more traditional destroyers, the Kikimora trades immediate damage for scaling pressure over time. This makes it extremely dangerous in extended engagements, but more vulnerable when caught early or forced to switch targets.

== Roles ==

=== PvP ===
* Solo skirmish destroyer
* Small gang DPS platform
* Anti-frigate / anti-destroyer pressure
* Ramp damage doctrine ship

=== PvE ===
* Situational use only
* Outclassed by more consistent PvE ships

=== Utility / Other Uses ===
* Triglavian training platform
* Doctrine experimentation

== Reality Check ==
Most Kikimoras do not die because the ship is weak. They die because the pilot flies it like a normal destroyer.

This ship is only dangerous if it survives long enough to build damage. If you overcommit early, switch targets constantly, or lose positioning, you will die before it ever matters.

If flown correctly, it becomes oppressive. If flown poorly, it disappears fast.

== Strengths ==
* High damage over time
* Strong against smaller hulls
* Scales extremely well in groups
* Punishes slow reactions and bad positioning

== Weaknesses ==
* Weak at the start of fights
* Ramp resets when switching targets
* Can be fragile if mispositioned
* Often primaried early in fights

== Mechanics ==
* Uses an Entropic Disintegrator
* Damage increases over time on a single target
* Switching targets resets damage ramp
* Requires sustained application to reach full potential

== Strategy / Usage ==
The Kikimora performs best when flown with discipline and awareness. Maintaining range, staying alive early, and committing only when safe are critical to success.

In solo or small gang combat, it excels when allowed to apply uninterrupted damage. In fleets, multiple Kikimoras can stack ramp damage and overwhelm targets quickly.

== Common Mistakes ==
* Switching targets too often
* Overcommitting before ramp builds
* Ignoring positioning
* Treating it like a burst DPS ship

== Typical Use Cases ==
* Solo roaming
* Small gang PvP
* Triglavian doctrines
* Anti-frigate pressure

== Notes ==
* The Kikimora is a Triglavian destroyer
* Type ID: 49710
* Known for its ramping damage mechanic
