5mil is plenty however they should bump up the shields on the POBs to like 20k and weapons damage to like 5k-10k .9shields .9 armor. make them the beast they should be.

Hahah, man, that's a great laugh on a Friday morning. I wouldn't even know how to respond. Well if the RGI isn't good enough then just fly the JSF, everyone else does.

As an Interceptor pilot I would take 60k mass on the RGI if they would just fix the stupid hitbox.

As for the RGI, at that mass one gun slot is perfect. PvP damage isn't like PvE, so one gun will do you just fine. In fact, first thing I'd probably do in an RGI is ditch my level 7 (which works fine for PvP) and throw on a level 8 cannon. Swap to a two gun ship if you're going PVEing.




I keep a level 10 set of blasters in my RGI & my Heavy TIE. And it is smexy!

Oh it's for real. I saw some guy on the JTL forum call the Actis a low mass ship.........




You mean its not a low mass ship? Why can't I fit my lvl 9 crafted speed engine and two Starmap Gauss Cannons in mine!

I just want them to fix the hitbox.

And I disagree with you Ducimus, I would rather not see 2 guns on the TIE interceptor, either one.

Well if that were the case, I'd insist that all A-wings had the hitbox along the scale of a quark.

RGI Interceptor has rather too high mass, jsf and belbullab should be nerfed.

I'm genuinly surprised that people are still asking for nerfs on the JSF etc. The hitbox issue with the RG TIE I do support pushing to get that adjusted but otherwise, it's fine. Not only myself, but a lot, lot more pilots who fly the pre-rotw ships are doing fine/better than those who do fly these uber buffed relics. I think that kind of makes the 'nerf them because their mass is too high' arguement obsolete.

Leaph i disagree with ya there, but thats just a personal opinion i have.

Basically, i beleive that a single ship should not have the following in one chassis:

1.) Be as small or smaller then an A wing
2.) Have high mass. ( seriously 90K mass is just 10K mass shy of an Xwing)
3.) Have more manuverablity then a T/A.

But again, just my opinion. I just dont argue about it as much as i used to.

I'd have to side with Repax here, largely because of the disparity between the Acts/B-22 and ... well ... every other ship in game. The only saving grace is that so many pilots have rejected flying them because of that. Says quite a bit about the pilot community.

PvP aside:


The royalinterceptor is usless in other aspects of space. It seems to me that people flying the heavy x-wing with 180k mass, or ANY ship with higher than 100k should'nt knock an imp pilot for complaining a bit. For Imp pilots it can be quite difficult to take on the Nova's and gunboats with reduced mass , low shields and 1 gun port. Our only saving grace is our bomber strikes. The Only gripe I have is the factmost rotw shipshave two gunports and the RGI has one. Once this box bug is fixed the RGI will be useless. Our weapons against a heavy x-wing is like shooting a bb gun at a tank, considering a heavy x-wing could slap a re'd lvl 8 super shield with 2000+ front and back..
