Well that was definetly my favorite rebel ship. I palyed long hours in it. One of the main things is in PvE keep your speed at about 55-60% of it's max and it helps the ship respond a little better, and reduces your tendancy to overcorrectand thus less oversteer. A big bonus is at that speed you can still turn just fast enough to keep up with the target lead for ust about any AI Enemy ship. Even the little fast ones.


Same is also VERY ture I found out with the TIE bomber, which I had the pleasure of using today in my Imp Vette run. Very effective. With the loadout I had on it.... poor gunboats... LOL!! And I found her responsive enough (just like the B) to take out the A wings that came. All in all... it just takes lots of practice to fly it. But once you are comfortable you're a monster.


Oh and also LOVE the M22.... man so much fun. especailly if you bring a friend as a gunner. Deep Space is mad fun in one. And even though you might get vaped by a JSF having that gunner with you might make them think twice before trying to get on your 6 or strafing ya.


Poor poor GBs lol


(can you tell I like heavy fighters lol)





The M-22 Is a beast. My fav ship overall when you have a gunner.




The Krayt is nice, but I've always liked the Rhix more, but i think its more of an aesthetic thing... the Krayt looks kind of like a giant piece of poo flying through space. The Rhix on the other hand looks, and flies like a big bruising tank.







i love my rhix i havent tested out a krayt yet as i lost 5k/10k i needed to make it


lost as in poof

One trick I've found with the b-wing, is that it is better to put a slower turngin, but higher speed engine in it. When i was using an RE'd lvl 10 the thing was so twitchy my fire was goign all over the place. When i switched to a MarkV engine, it calmed it down a bit. Using a mark V can also give you a bit of a sneaky tactic... If you get into a turning fight you can sometimes boost away at high speed, and turn it back into a joust.

reason: At one point I had 4 4-4k dmg guns, 2 spacebomb launchers, and loaded out with a ton of other good parts. PVE wise Im ripping up basically everything in my path.





But a freelance can load out a Krayt (same mass) with just as much firepower (minus one missile launcher, and do the same thing. PVP this shouldnt be a issue because of the huge hitbox that the B-Wing/Krayt share.


when i get on my freelance pilot i will give you the full loadout of my Krayt. Basically I dropped a MK4proton in, and have 2 4k dmg guns and a 4.8k dmg gun with a speed component gun for the gunner to keep things off my tail (believe its like 1.5k max dmg).


In these regards i dont agree with your "easiest answer ever quote".
