The Fleet Commander class allows you to take a command and control position, and coordinate your allies in an orchestra of death.

An Empyreal Eclipse (with the Selenite Lapis skin) Fleet Commander with some Hephaestus Gizmo fighters on high alert. Two Bule Abadi Spectre Xs and a Porpoise+ follow in tow.

Fleet Commanders deal damage through their fighters and bots, and can provide various bonuses to their allies with Aura Generators. They can also use Field Amplification Devices to greatly increase the effects of their auras, which can be coordinated with allies for massive spikes of outgoing damage.

The presence of a Fleet Commander can be a formidable force multiplier for a squad -- if their auras are within effective range.

Fleet Commanders are similar to Shield Monkeys and Engineers in that they are not direct-fire classes -- they mostly rely on assets complementary to their main ships to deal damage.

Fleet Commander is often considered the friendliest class to play for a new player, as it allows them to do a wide range of content solo with relatively minimal investment compared to other classes. Fleet Commanders are naturally tanky as capital ships, and are generally free to invest gear and augmenters towards further survivability. The (mostly) automated nature of fighters and bots lends to mechanically simpler combat, in comparison to direct fire classes like Seer or Sniper.
