your guns and shields and engines are most important, with powerfull guns you need not worry about having to take dozens of shots to disable or destroy a ship and can keep yourself from getting hit. However when anyone attacks you even with your weapons you will want a very good shield. if you have a shield with a very high restore rate (or whatever its called) and hitpoints you will be better off than having heavy armor with a heavy shield. Also if you have a very good engine turning away from pursuing enemies or getting away from them is easier, having the shield definatly helps too and if its very manuverable you can shoot down other ships with ease.

all three of these require a beasty reactor but you can easily get a re'd one or maybe even a good space loot one that has around 15k output. im using a 14k that is i think a level 5 and only has about 9 or 10k mass.

I use my Belbullab for mining - it has a pair of MkIII Mining Lasers and a MkII Proton Launcher as its armament. It may sound funny, but the mining lasers do as much damage as a heavy blaster!

I also have a MkIII reactor (14725 energy), a MkIV engine experimented for high PYR, 1900-point MkIV shields, 1100-point MkIII armor, an RE capacitor that suitably meets my needs for its low mass, a MkIII booster with a 10-second burn that recharges fully in less than 30 seconds, 18.0-speed MkIII droid interface, large cargo hold, and a micro-chaff launcher.

Nothing to sneeze at, considering that I can usually continue mining and ignore asteroid bandits until I pick up the current chunks. I'd daresay I could take this on a Tier 3 mission and succeed with it despite the fact that it's loaded for mining - so there's no reason one that's fitted for combat should have any shortcomings.

Crafted components can actually be quite good, provided you have a competent shipwright that uses quality materials. Surely, you can get reverse-engineered parts that are better, but believe me, ones that are better than I can craft are rare and expensive (and I've reverse-engineered thousands of parts to show for it).

Crafted intensified Mark IV Shields
2X Crafted quickshot Mark IV blasters (0.26 refire)
Starmap RE engine (for Overt) or crafted Mark IV Engine
Chaff Launcher
RE'd LVL 3 reactor (13K, 2K mass)
RE'd LVL 2 Capacitor (900 energy, 35 or so recharge)
RE'd LVL 1 DI (14.7s pre-nerf)
Mark III Concussion/Proton when needed
v4 Flight computer - Reactor/Engine/Weapon/Capacitor OL3, Cap to Shield shunt 4

I think that is all

With this setup I can nail Tier 5's in 10-15secs, and around 25secs for A-Wings

Lower numbers = better speed.

20 is slower than 18.
