Thread: Poll: What's your favorite ship to fly
For JTL ship my Imp character flys TIE Advanced. Real Imps don't believe in astromechs!
For dogfighting, I like the Grivious ship best.
If I'm taking out anything big and flying with friends, or mining, I prefer my Krayt.
If I'm just bored and running around space for fun, I'll take my YT-1300 or Y-8.
But for now I have to fly 'Space Composite' to compete
Before that it was my Y-Wing Longprobe.
Some might say, they both fly quite sluggish, but for PvE that does not matter at all and the mass really makes it up (and for PvP you just need 2 hits to get shot down, no matter what ship)
B-Wing would be nicer, but the configuration of the weapons does not make it easy to hit anything, especially when close to the target.

Snap out of it. An A-Wing is still a perfectly viable ship for anyone with a squeak of gray matter. If you need ANY advice on how to set up an A-Wing to bishslap a poonfighter, send me a tell ingame, Kettemoor.Janu. I will walk you through the EXACT process of putting together an oldschool ship that will throw these punks screaming back to Endor.
Not losing a perfectly good A-Wing pilot to those Jedi POS's if I can avoid it.
For myself, I prefer the A-Wing when I'm up against a JSF pilot who needs to be brought down a peg or twenty.
I also have an Advanced X-Wing set up to deal with high end PvP and PvE, though I'll admit to its flaws due to overmass.
My real dream ship is my Nova Courier. Full line up of Elite components, and a perfectly good ship for most PvE and some large formation PvP, plus its a great RP vehicle.
I'm currently an Alliance Ace, with an A-Wing and standard X-Wing loaded.
I'm also currently on an anti-RotW ship kick, but the Bel-22 had been a staple in my Ship List since RotW arrived.

My all-time favourite is the M-22 gunship "Krayt." I played loads of WW2 flightsims when i was a kid, and the krayt reminds me so much of my favourite bomber, the HE-111. Big, bad and ready to punch your tiny fighter into a star. The krayt is also a viable PvP ship. It will never win a turning fight, but the high mass (210-220K) makes room for some heavy shit and at least a couple of RE'd level 10 components (a heavy booster for example, and a level 10 engine). You won't win every time you engage another player, but I'm slowly learning how to take advantage of hitbox angles and stuff like that. Also, heavy armour saves my ass from time to time. So... the krayt is my "baby."
Hey, am I right that you're on Ahazi? Please give me a /tell sometime (IGN Odev), I'd like to talk to you about Krayt setups.
