Coming with [[Macrocannon|Macro turrets and batteries]], plus [[Torpedo|Torpedo launchers]] as standard, the ''Endeavor''-class is much more heavily-armed and armored compared to the ''Dauntless''. The large weapons batteries of the Endeavour class mean it can hold its own in a fleet engagement, usually equaling the fire-power of a full-size cruiser. These batteries have only a short-range, equaling that of the shortest cruiser battery ranges, this is sufficient however for the Endeavour's role as a heavy escort. Its small torpedo compliment serves merely as a distraction, rather than a serious threat to a capital ship; escorts, however, would do well to avoid them.

On the flip side, it's also much slower, which makes it less capable in the anti-piracy role compared to its contemporary. This means that outside of fleet engagements (where they take the role as heavy escorts) Endeavors are normally found as the flagships of convoys instead. Of course using more than one of two light cruisers to escort a convoy is stupid anyway seeing as pirates almost exclusively use raider type ships. The kind the extremely common, dirt cheap claymore and sword class frigates shred effortlessly.

Both the ''Endurance''-class and ''Defiant''-class are built off the same hull as the Endeavor.
