The one you get at 4xxx, Kiryxxz or what ever its called. Massive firepower and excellent mass. I redeeded mine to get a Firespray, bad move, it will be back.

No question about it, its the M22-T Krayt Gunship. Huge mass, excellent handling, MASSIVE firepower.

/agree Krayt Deeded my Rhix, and don't regret it for a moment. I might feel different if I PvPd, but I'm more than happy to have asmooth shipthat I can take a buddy up in.

I don't know the m22 krayt because I'm only 4333, but The Rikharks(or what it is called) is not very smooth, I have on it an engine with topspeed 79 and all the other value at 63.5 and the ship is slow and not very smooth, with the same engine installed on Ixiyen(3---) I think is better the Rikharks, but the the fire power and the mass are reduced, but I prefer a ship more fast and smooth.

I'd have to go with the Dunelizard or the Kihraxz. With the right parts and commands they can be a pretty tough

For PvE nothing beats a well built Krayt. 210k mass is plenty to outfit it with some serious hardware and the thing cruises like a ship half its size.
For PvP however,..your flying a house. If a guy can't hit your Krayt then they need to start using the force and not the faulty targeting computer
PvP wise go with the tried and true Dunelizard. Although I must admit I am partial to the Hutt designed ships, but 85k mass and a small target makes the Dunelizard a worthy advisary.
FYI: If you are going to PvP in any ship, I suggest loading it out and practicing in Kessel to get the feel of it before going overt/going to Deep Space. I know when I switch between the ships I have to get used to not having the firepower of a small battleship. While the Rikx is good at Tier 4, trya Krayt and see the difference when you hit master.

In your opinion, what is the best privateer ship in JTL?
I don't think there really is a "best" ship in my mind. Like people have mentioned, the Krayt and the Rihkyrk are certainly great for PvE but are huge targets in PvP. PvP ships such as the Dunelizard and Kihraxz on the otherhand don't have the firepower to waste things as fastin PvE like the previously mentioned heavy ships. All the ships have their useful things and balance out pretty well. I think it really just comes down to the style and taste of the pilot.

I agree that its the Krayt. With the 4th gun being a 2nd player turret you have a protection in the back as well as being able to shoot 2 ships down at the same time. It does take a while to get the best balance of components you want though. It has excellent handleing, and if you get the imp and reb droid commands your doing great.

What's the difference between the M-12 and the 22-T? I've looked at a few different sites and the 22-T is hard to find any info on. How new is this ship?
Granted, I've only played JTL since... last night. So please forgive the noob pilot.

The 22-T is the Krayt. It has only been out since the last major publish so there's not a whole lot of info on it on most sites. Heck, don't even think it's been listed on the official one yet. Basically it's the Kimogilla supersized with a turret added in. If you are interested in flying around in one send me a tell some time that I'm on and I'll take you up with me.

You sir, are on 
I was having a blast getting my marksman and scout grinds, but the moment I hit space, holy crap it was on.
Not sure if it was just the simplicity of the first missions, but I couldn't find one Black Sun fighter last night that could shake me. I was lovin' life.
