HELP....im 3/3/3/3 freelance, and i admit i have BLAGGED my way to 3/3/3/3.

I picked up a Kimogla on the Advice of a friend, i kitted out the best i could (bearing in mind i really have no idea).
Launched into a Tier 4 kill all mission.....took 35 mins to get the 1 ship down to 49% armour..then the mission ended because i took to long.
I can fly the dam ship..just seems its slow and i know im scoring hits but not often enough...+ it seems my charge drops so much every time i fire off a shot or two.

Here are the Stats of the components in my ship

Kimogla

Mass : 109392
Energy : 15529

Mark IV Fusion Reactor
Far too heavy, find a good RE'd reactor from level 2 or 3 with 12k power and use reactor overload
Republic Sienar Systems Imperial Skyrunner Engine
You have completed Tier3, you should have gotten a reward engine that is 79 spd and MUCH better PYR than this. junk it

Mark III Deflector Shield
Good enough for now, but look for lvl8 looted shields. you will begetting a reward shield in tier4 and with 7 loots, can RE it into something nice.

Front Armour/Rear Armour
Adequate. you should have had a nice reward L6 plate that you could be using

Mon Calmari Modified Heavy Capacitor

Horrible capacitor, shop the bazaar for level4s, save your looted level4s and get 4 of them RE'd into something that will eat this one's lunch. With a bit of looking you can get charge of 36 easily, with them topping out just over 40. PS, use Cap overcharge

Mark III Booster
Crafted boosters arent that wonderful. Again you should have had a reward booster with 1980 Energy and good values. Easy to get 3 other L4 boosters for RE.

Weapon 1/Weapon 2
No weapon 3? with that gaumy reactor no wonder. The power of a Kimo is 3 weapon slots. get 3 working guns and a cap to power them, you will be death incarnate. even before weapon overload program. Long term you want to loot and save level6-7-8 guns for use in making light hard hitting RE'd weapons.

Mark IV Droid Interface
Heavy, but acceptable. Speed is only a factor when using tactical programs like Cap to shield shunt. your cap is so awful, that negates any advantage of a fast DI.

sorry this is long winded, im hoping u guys can tell me whats wrong with the set up and maybe advise me how to change and what to look for.

You see guys, the bottom 2 posts are obviouisly what i need to know....but u see...it went over my head..this is my problem, shove a saber in my hand and i rock, ive largely ignored JTL, and now im paying the price for not taking notice.

lol, i wish i could get someone to kit out my ship for me...butthen i wouldnt learn what it all means...

Ive found a couple of

Speed 72
Yaw over 60
Pitch over 60 Engines

but am i buying Lvl7/8? the mass is quite large???

Actually is it possible for someone to post there Component stats in a ship like mine? then i can kinda see where i need to go, would be very very helpful if u could.

Thnx in advance
neogenisis

/bump

Sorry about the bumps, this is really doing my head in, tho im sure when i get my head round it it will be fun to find better parts as i go, i jusy wanted something to compare with.
So thnx alot, ure post really helps..just need to find the parts.

so apart from the Naff Engine and naff Capacitor, is it ok...ish?

Tales of woe, im new to JTL not SWG...if i got ne Reward parts i probably did sell them, as i said i BLAGGED my way to 3/3/3/3 so im finding it difficult,

One more question..whats the deal with the Astro Mechs and Flight Computers?

Hmmmm, as i said in a previuos post, ive smartened up my Ship, it now moves well, and i can take on Tier 4's the only problem im having is the same Weapon problem, sustained fire means my Weapon bar goes down quicker than a Boxer on the Fiddle.

i changed the capacitor, Engine, Weapons, Droid Interface, Booster and Deflector Shield..here are the new stats..

That's to be expected. the three guns together have something like 90+ energy per shot, and the capacitor has 37 recharge. Not much you can do about that except Capacitor Overload and Weapon Overload 3 (Which currently reduces capacitor drain)
