Thread: What do you PvP in?

I've been using my TIE Oppressor "Bestine Belle", I have a 4-1 record with it. My loss was on my first trip to DS, gawking at the Star destoryer won't do that again! Two very well coordinated pilots jumped me, props to them for excellent teamwork! I don't have the exact stats since the servers are down but it is something like this:

2 level 7 blasters

level 9 shields

level 5 reactor

level 9 engine

level 9 booster

level 7 armor

level 1 droid interface(prenerf speed 13ish)

All are moderate to high end crafted items (by my alt), except the DI it was RE'd on day 2

I use CO1, WO2 (I don't want to get accustomed to a broken WO3 program), EO2, and RO2...I need to get a bit better reactor or an RO3 chipto run EO3. this gives me a top speed of around 1100, boosted close to 1400. Manuvering speed is around 800 or so.


I've had a lot of fun with this craft, It rocks in PvE, and I've held my own in PvP. But, I had an urge to try something different for PvP.....


Since it is pretty much 1 or 2 shot kills out there, andI have to slow down so much in the Belle,I thought I'd do a TIE Interceptor I crafted it to come in just under the max weight with the following loadout:

Level 5 blaster

Level 3 armor - got to love RP'ing...no shields!

Level 7 engine

Level 3 reactor

level 1 droid interface


I have just enough power when running RO2 to use EO3 WO2 and CO1. The top speed will be around 1100, but the manuvering speed will be almost the same! I hopethat my sheer speed and manuverability will make up for the lower damage and no shields, just like cannon. My main concern is getting jumped by NPC's in DS...the lack of shields will hurt then. If some decent HGP radioactive ever spawns I should be able to boost the speed up to 12-1300 range


I'm currious does anyone else run a light fast setup like this (rebs in A-wings?) or does everyone go for the slow, heavy hitters? List what you fly for comparison.

PvP is pointless as long as there is one-shot-insta-kills. It just ain´t right that a mere TIE Interceptor can take out a YT-1300 without firing more then 2 rounds.


If you want thrilling PvP your only way of doing that is at this time to use lvl 3 Weapons in master ships with lvl 9 shields... then Dockfights are Dockfights...

I know that PvP is tough with the 1 or 2 shot kills, and unless you have a spectacular crew no MP ship should be in PvP, and this needs to be changed. I personally find space PvP the way it is now to be extremely exciting, youhave to be on your toes 100% of the time. The last thing I want to see if PvP made into the ground game where you have 2 people pounding on each other for 25 minutes.

i fly the advanced and the awing.

the advanced turns just as hard as the tie-int if you ask me i just has to throttle back a bit, and call me crazy but i think its harder to hit also.

A-Wing all the way.

Shield: L7 1900/1900 11.6 recharge
Weapon: L7 Blaster 2800 damage .33 refire rate.

That's what I remember off the top of my head. The ship does well as long as I can avoid an enemy missile lock on my way into battle.
