Subject say it, i don't see any uses for this ship besides taking frieds in space so they can get faster Xp on lower TIERs.

Depends on how good-a-pilot you are if it is of any use or not.


2gunners and yourself able to fire a weapon is more then you get in a multi-person ship, where the pilot can not fire anything besides Ordenance/Countermeasures.


If you make use of droid command, then the ARC can be really a fun ship

125k mass kills it. My Nova has combined firepower of close to 20k, top speed 1612, and 2600 shields. ARC is in no way comes close to nova. Its a y-wing with 2 gunners 8(.

I know it´s mass, but have you ever heard of reverse engineering?


You only have to put some decent equipment into it and it will be a fine ship. A little more mass might be nice, but it´s not really required.

Heres a free tip..forget about the two gunners spot..dont need them.. Just put one kick #$# weapon up front,and good shields,low mass armor..don't need to be great armor..your shields should do u good,with droid commands this is a fun ship...


I took it to the ISD in deep space rofl now its no bwing..but i had fun flying it across thetopand the belly of the isd,then parking in the hanger bay waiting for some Players to spawn rofl

heh... I love hearing the Rebs complain about mass... try fitting everything into a TIE Interceptor with 49k mass, THEN you can complain about 125.

Since no one else really answered the question:


Yes, it is useless. No, it does not depend on any skill or RE'd components. If you have a certian skill level or great components, they would be better used in a better ship. This ship would be a one person starfighter. There is nothing you can do in a fully crewed multiplayer or POB ship that you can't do better soloin a fighter, as unfortunate as that is.

i can see answers from 2 different posters that have only other opinion than yours it seems



I wouldnt call it useless at all. to take out a gunboat solo.. yes its useless. or lets say it in other words.. u can do that better with other ships
