I use this ship for everything from doing the 'vette to helping missions Tier3 & 4 and PvE & PvP in Deep Space... and she has yet to be blown up.

After reading over this thread I see that almost everyone uses RE'd parts for the majority. I should think the devs need to revisit shipwright and let them build stuff just as good as loot. It's justa matter of luck on who gets to operate on the higher plane of ship performance.

ISS Ballerina:
Reverse Engineered:
Reverse Engineered:
DI (pre-fix, else crafted is as fine)
Weapon
Weapon
Engine
Capacitor
-- 4 items
Crafted:
Reactor
Armor (1)
Booster
Shield
Chassis
-- 5 items.
Seems to not be so unbalanced as people think.
Granted, though, those parts that are RE'd could not be crafted and still be viable, whereas the Crafted parts could be swapped out for RE'd parts with relative ease, with little to no loss in performance, or in fact a small boost in some ways.

I'm running at 50131/50259 mass at the moment. I don't seem to be doing enough damage to make it an effective ship...certainly no where near the ability of my oppressor PvE.
And I can't stand the lack of gun harmonisation (where the laser bolts 'meet') - I would *love* to see an option to tweak the harmonisation. I'd make all the bolts meet at 100m or maybe 75m. I hate shooting around Awings and Bwings
Anyone got any advice on how to tweak her further, or where I might be going wrong?
I'm running a reactor overload 3, engine overload 3 and weapon overload 3. Try to fit Capacitor to shield stunt 3 it is one of the best programs IMO

A shipwright with decent resources can make you a Overcharged Mark I reactor with about that energy generation that only weighs 1300 or so mass. If you are running RO3 or RO4, I highly doubt you need that much generation anyway. My reactor on my a-wing only generates 10k energy, it weighs around 900 mass. I have enough power for everything including running WO3, CO3, and EO3.

oo, thanks for the tip! I was using the original poster's specs as a guide, so I followed what he had lol
Any shipwrights on bria reckon they can crank out a reactor with the above stats? If so, send me a /tell ingame or leave a message here

Hehehehe.. Damn Thunder Stealer! LMAO!
Well, personally I'm proud to say that on friday night I dropped my Black Epsilon Ace. In roughly 5 hours, made it up to 3,2,2,2 Imperial Inquisition. Using my TIE Intercepter (which I of course did not redeed so it's still using the above listed stats...) Now I'm 3,3,3,2 and hoping to hit Ace again by late monday night. BTW... my assessement so far... Black Epsilon (Hardest) more big nasties! Imperial Inquisition, difficult part so far is you end up fighting a lot more fighters than BE did, although no where near as many Gunboats yet.

Actually thats my plan. I've seen on the boards (a lot) claims that SS is supposedly the hardest. Now, I've helped plenty of pilots on SS missions. Personally, I believe what makes them "harder" is there are more AWings, and the missions are LONG! Black Epsilon you have to go hit all sorts of gunboats and such so not as long but definately full of the big baddies. Imperial Inquisition seems pretty darn easy so far.
Got stuck a little bit on the 3rd tier 3 mission but only because I kept blowing up that stupid Nova cruiser. Finally finished it (just as my support was about to help out.. sorry fror the wasted trip Vid! LOL!).
So tonight, I'll get back in there and hopefully get Ace tonight. By then should have plenty of gear to re-engineer. Get that done, then get ready for SS. Probably do SS after about 2 weeks or so. I really do like being able to land at the retreat though!

I think the hardest has a lot to do with your ship/parts and how long you've been flying. Honestly I've done or flown on pretty much every tier 3 and 4 imp mission at least 4 or 5 times and SS seemed harder to me, but that was probably a lot to do with that was my first mastery. Yes BE has lots of gunboats, yea its hard, just keep coming back to getting ganked by the random tier 4 spawns on long SS missions. I love the litany of missions I had to fly next to the Rebel Space Station over Yavin or a spawn of 6 tier 4 pirates. Things like that made me go bald prematurely.

Hehe, I wish I could get my hands on one...unfortunatly, I started JTL *after* all the nerfs had happened :/ My copy was delayed somewhat.Nerf ??? i got one of those last friday from redoing all my RSF missions, i drop pilot sometimes and climb back the tree for the rewards

I've actually upgraded to a level 7 gun...stats to follow.

I'd love too, but my FC loves eating c2ss chips...I've tried a level 3 and level 2...neither have actually gone in to the FC. Yes, I've got enough room, and no, they're not in my inventory afterwards. They're....gone. I've sent in tickets, but CSRs say they can't help me.
Also because of that(regrinding pilot so often) i have several level 2 capacitors mass 1600 recharge 40 and 900 of pool, 2 level 8 weapons 22K mass 14 energy per shot with damage up to 3800. i pilot a dunelizard just to fit those weps, got a scyknot so bad either but it isso hard to get anything good on 12k

18 hours in-game grinding on Imp Inquisition and when I get home today I'm already at 4,4,4,3 solo. Realize, after already being an Ace once before, you already know what you're doing, have good components saved up, and have a good idea what kind of stuff you need to do in the missions. So, it's been a lot of fun re-grinding pilot. I enjoy being able to land at the retreat, and I've made over 500k in cash and have a house with around 300 items in it to be mix and match re'ed.
Not too bad. I'm considering 2 things after this. Either.... A. Go pick up the Rebel Aligned Nuetral and Ace that (for Sienar loot) then go Master Storm Squadron. or.. B. Just go Ace Storm Squadron thus hitting all the Imp Ace's and then stop there.... Meh, I'll decide that next week. Hopefully be done with II tonight. (can't imagine why not)
