They each have their roles you nitwitts, the bellubab is far better in taking down corvettes and awings, also if your skilled enough you Might be better with it in pvp (doubt it), the kse can mow down any larger ship like nothing, and also if your less skilled in pvp then this would be your choice on starting the path of space pvp, because they have 3weapon slots and alot of mass you can take down just about any on-comming attacker, just dont be the one chasing, or else they can start running circles around you until they get close enough to epulse youor something.

From what i have heard i should prefer the Bellbullab-22, but i also got the Eta-Actis 2 Interceptor (Jedi Starfighter) na presonally it ROCKS, it has exactly the same stats as the belbullab but personally i think it is soooo much cooler and it is also a bit smaller wich makes it harder to hit in PvP. Now i shall not sya anything bad about the Firespray cuz i am not an ace so i have never flew it, but from what i have heard it is a bit clumsy.

I have probably the best equipped KSE on any server,and I'm sure there's plenty of people on Starsider that I've fought against who will tell you that I'm able to make the KSE very competative. However, that being said, unless you're able to get your hands on amazing RE'd components, and unless you're willing to flying the KSE exclusively for months to get familar with its handling and fire pattern, I would suggest going with a Belb22 instead.

I agree, to an extent. It does take some getting used to, but I don't think it's quite as hard as you're making it out to be. That being said, *any* ship can be competive when outfitted and flown correctly.

I redeeded my B22.
I didn't feel like flying a craft that literally stinks with "Cheese," same with the JSF.
At least the heavy Z-95 and heavy TIE Fighter still fly with the basic flight characteristics and loadout as the originals, just much higher mass.
Even the Imperial Guard TIE Interceptor has the same perimeters as the heavy TIE Fighter / Z-95.

clumsy is a good word to describe it lol. when you go into sharpish manuevers, the little aiming reticle for your guns actually MOVES... it will go move up and down so that you actualy have to aim from the bottom part of your screen sometimes... its a little funky, and definately hard to adjust to.

PVE wise with nutral pilot the KSE is an awsome display of power. But for PVP its not good. Then again its not ment to be a dog fighting ship. Its a ship where it uses stealth more then it uses dog fighting techniques so with nuteral pilot it can do that.
Now if you take the JEDI starfighter, Awing, Grievious shp and the nuetral pilot ship that you get from the space station.... These are dog fighting ships. These should be compared, not the KSE Firesray as it is a totally different class of ship and these nuckleheads of SOE really didnt get the KSE Firespray's abilities down right. These ships should be invisible at times to radar, its why its shaped so weird. Sort of like stealth bombers but in starwars. These ships were for law enforcement not dogfighting.
PVP wise.. JEDI starfighter, Awings, grievious ships and teh nuetral pilot ships are the best ships to PVP in.
PVE wise.... Depends on your tastes... Me, I like the KSE becasue you can actually fly with space bombs and still have your best guns aboard along with good missle payload. Others might say the Kryat Gun Ship because of its Three gun mounts, or Xwings for obvious reasons. Dont know much about the Tie Fighters but then again I dont even want to know....lol

er.... you remember in Ep2 when Slave1 absolutely pwnd Obi-Wans jedi starfighter mk1? if they wernt in the middle of an asteroid field where he could hide, obi-wan woulda been scrap...
the neutral pilot ships are, generally, slow, with higher mass. the Dunelizard was alright Pre-RotW, but there is so much better out now... the only ship fast enough imo for pvp from freelancer is the Kihrazx fighter, and that has what, 40k mass? puhleeease. now that RotW is out tho, the Vaksai is alright to pvp in lol.

Thing with the firespery is that the weapons placement take some getting used to before your any good in it. There is no answer to this question as the two fighters apeal to two very different pilots. One is the nimble light weight pilots and then there are the heavyweight bomber type fighters. They are IMO too different to compare

Exactly the Vakasai is a good ship to PVP in. Forgot the name....
But in Episode 2 the firespray did a loop to hide from OBI-Wan no? It hid then came around from behind. If the KSE Firespray was out in the open it would not had had a chance.
Why? Because the jedi starfighter is way more agile and Jango wouldnt have been able to shake him. The fact is buddy that Jango used stragety to manuver into an asteroid field, use sonic charges to push the jedi starfighter from getting a clear shot, did a loop up and over an asteroid while OBI-Wan was busy flying around debris then came around from behind to get a nice lock on him with a missle.
Once locked the jedi starfighter had problems shaking the missles so OBI-Wan let loose the spare parts canister and the missle hit that. Then OBI-Wan hid because he himself didnt have missles and Slave 1 was already facing his direction not to mention he was trying to capture the bounty hunter to unravel the mystery of who was trying to kill Padme'. To go against him would have been suicide so he waited until he landed.
That is more accurate...
No applause needed... thank you, thank you.... thank you
