i finally got one lastnight for 2mil yaaaaaa, but i hate. I guess i have gotten so use to flying to 3rd person or something, because in 3rd person view i can see anything in front of my except the a$$end of my ship. I tried to go 1st person but half the screen is gone. the only way i can fly it is cockpit turned off. the down side to it is. its hard to tell the motion of your ship and how hard your turning. Is it just me or do some other people have this problem.

On the topic of my ship i thought dang its so cheap whats wrong with it. I checked the stats and it had 208,990 mass. only about 1k less than my krayt. It has 1 less gun port than the krayt but it has 2 missle ports. I tried missile many a time and i just dont see the need for them. The damage they seem to put out and far less than a good pair of blasters.

On the other hand vette unless it changes has missle only hit ports now. Which leads me to my other question what missiles do you guys use. I have tried lvl 4 proton and lvl3 protone. concussion and sesmic too.

Im not too impressed with the firespray either, I switched back to the Ywing lp.

When I was flying the Firespray I was usually packing 2 markIII protons

And 2 really nice RE'd lvl8 guns. Had lots of firepower, but the handling is a little mushy.

Mark III Concussion Missiles. Can make the launcher under 6k mass with good resources, and they pack a punch. I use 'em for two things:

a) Tier 4/5 A-Wing rear shield hits

b) subcomponents on the Corvette

Because they have 0 armour effectiveness, they're no good for shooting anything else, but they do a damn fine job for my purposes, and the damage output you get is generally higher than other missiles at the same level. Plus, you can get 12-13 in a pack; just the right amount for soloing the corvette

Firesprays are iconic...nothing much more to me... a friend of mine offered me one for free for stuff I've done in the past for him, I didn't want it. and when I'm flying they are about the easiest thing to kill... big targets and no match for a well outfitted Krayt or Oppressor.

Never use missles myself... they tend to be a waste of reactor power and mass... rather just have RE'd high damage guns...
