Evasive Maneuvers is an extremely useful ability. It is available to all players and is first gained when the player reaches Lieutenant Grade 2 (see Player ability for more information). It can be used as a defensive buff for its added defense, or offensively for its turn rates and flight speed. It can also be useful for flying around at increased speeds — to collect anomalies, for example.
