I did CorSec with a Dunelizard. I only needed help on one (maybe two)Tier 4 mission(s) and the Corvette.

I must mention that I play on Starsider, so I have access to our Pilot Correspondent as my shipwright. He made my Dune chassis, as well as every crafted component in my ship, and he re-engineered every RE component in my ship.

My only complaint is, unlike him, I was not patient enough in finding 5 fantastic lvl 6 engines to combine with my pre-nerf lvl 6 reward engine (which interestingly enough, I looted from a kill, and not from a mission reward.) Don't have the stats handy, but it has nowhere near the YPR stats that Tomo's has. I'm insanely jealous, and I hate myself for not waiting to find better stats to RE that thing with.

That said, the Duney is in the barn while I have fun with the unbalanced JSF.

I got my Smuggler's Alliance pilot on Kett to Master using a Dunelizard and only using looted parts I found along the way (no crafted, no RE'd, aside from chaff). I did every mission solo except for the Vette.

On TC, I'm working on an RSF freelance, using a Dunelizard and looted parts (again, except chaff). 3433 right now, solo for all but one mission where I enlisted a wingman one or two boxes behind me.

The DL is an awesome ship if you fly it right. Dogfightingis the key with lots of moves to dodge shots. Most people that have trouble with a DL try to use it like a tank.

A Dunelizard is essentially a JSF with 4-6k less mass, 300/300/150 YPR, and a .85 SpdX instead of a .95.

Plus it doesn't turn full tilt at 100% throttle.

But it DOES have two gun mounts, and if you're an RE maniac, that makes all the difference in the world.

The people who can get by using a Dunelizard are either patient in waiting for parts, or have a source of parts other than the pilot with the Duney. The end run with a Duney takes good RE'd parts, to kick your mass/effictiveness ratio up to a point where you can still compete. Can't skimp on much when you want to finish in one, and need to save every ounce of mass you can to fit the needed engine, shield and weaponry in.

I'd say definitely the patient part I fly my Dunelizard through two masters. I justlove the thing. Best balance of any starfighter I've flown so far (bar the Grevious, which is a dunelizard on crack, ie perfect). But I spent a long time between the last two Tier 4 missions caching parts.

Mass is a little tight, compared to other Freelance ships, but not compared to TIEs.

I run with the level 6 engine, level 8 shield and two REd level 7 blasters. I can fit in a Mark III concussion launcher and chaff, so I'm not really skimping.

Did I mention I love the Dunelizard?
