'''Combat''' is one of the three archetypal pilot [[roles]] recognized by the [[Pilots Federation]]. Combat encompasses multiple sub-roles, such as [[Assassin]], [[Bounty Hunter]], [[Mercenary]], and [[Pirate]]. Increasing Combat rank requires destroying other [[Ships]], and defeating pilots with higher Combat ranks rewards a greater amount of experience. Combat pilots use [[Hardpoint]]s equipped with weapons to disable a target's shield, and then deal damage to the hull until the target is destroyed.

Template:RoleInfobox Combat is one of the three archetypal pilot roles recognized by the Pilots Federation. Combat encompasses multiple sub-roles, such as Assassin, Bounty Hunter, Mercenary, and Pirate. Increasing Combat rank requires destroying other Ships, and defeating pilots with higher Combat ranks rewards a greater amount of experience. Combat pilots use Hardpoints equipped with weapons to disable a target's shield, and then deal damage to the hull until the target is destroyed. Combat can be experienced alone, in a Wing, or in Multicrew.

Notes
- It takes approximately 2225 experience points to go from Deadly to Elite combat ranking. This equals 1780 Elite kills, or approximately 2400 kills based on a more average distribution of ships.[2]
- If a player has crew members (including AI crew members), combat experience points will be split amongst them. The exact split is unknown, though having one AI crew member roughly halves the experience points gained, doubling the number of kills required in order to rank up.
