i have a capasisator with arround these stats

max: 12xx
rechage: 35
mass: 26xxx

and my xwing only have a mass on 99xxx
my 2 weapons are taking 40xxx mass togehter.

1000-2000 good vs armor (mass 28xxx)
1000-1500 good vs shield (mass 12xxx)

i would like the 3th weapon... with good dmg vs shield, becasue i only use 1 of the weapon at the time, to not take out my energy, but to do that, i need to find some more mass,by replace my weapon with less useing mass and a bigger capasisator, so i don't use my energy in 10 sec

can anyone tell me some tips, for what exist and so on, i don't know how good my stuff are, when i don't fly that much.


i am rebel pilot 3333, and can use level 7 upgrades... i got 700k pilot exp.. and taking x4xx first.. so i can use the level 8 upgrades

Heya ...

Hook up with a free lance pilot and ask them to make you a copy of the Reactor Overload III and Weapons Capacitor Overload III programs. If you run these programs while flying, you'll be able to put a MUCH lower mass reactor in your XWing and save a lot of space. What sort of mass is your current reactor? With the weapons capacitor program, you'll be able to fire more then one guy at a time.

All in all, this to me is a great part of JTL. You're making the touch decisions to get your ship setup exactly how you want it.

also, loose all that armor! its a waste of mass. you should be able to get by with some lvl 1 or 2 crappy, if you loose all your shields and take damage then you just need to rethink your strategy a bit more.


if you found someone to make you some droid chips, you can even get by fine with a lvl 2 capacitor at around 1200 mass you can get 1000 cap and a decent recharge.

oh heh i miss read this part thought he was using armor that had 28000 mass, guess i read it to fast. try getting3 lvl 7 weapons around 14k mass from a another player Shipwright. try to get Blasters that are equally suited todamagingarmor and shields. youll notice stuff dies alot faster when shooting 3 blasters. just need to make sure you have those overload chips for your droid

Go to Red Sin Chimaera in Endor.
Find the Evil Raider Tyrants (or something like that)
Fastest damned spawn I've ever seen. Fill your inventory.
Hope to get lucky and get a 1.8k, 800, 35-37 recharge capacitor.

I also hunt around Lok, near Rebellion Blaze. Lots of little ships.

There are lots of low mass parts out there, but you gotta churn through alot to find the gems.

From a MSW to you:


Look up a shipwright on your server, and see if they don't have a L2 capacitor sitting around with low mass, a recharge rate between 36 and 40, and a total energy level between 750-1000. They aren't that rare really. That should cut your mass from 26xxx to around 1200.


Add the Capacitor Overload 3 programs, and since you'll be talking to a freelancer, ask them to burn a chip with Capacitor to Shield Shunt 3. In fact, many droid vendors sell the chips both blank and pre-programmed.


Good luck!

And while this isn't a very economical way to go, do a galaxy wide vendor search and you may be able to find a higher mass ship. Just yesterday I upgraded my x-wing's mass from 99400 to 101300+. The previous posts should be considered first, however.

You only paid 15k because someone was unloading their junk chassis to use a better one! It takes 60k resources to build an x-wing chassis. You can barely mine your own resources for 0.25 cpu.

I built myself a 101500 mass x-wing and a 66k mass a-wing chassis last night, but I'll never stock a vendor with these. I already had a 100k x-wing and a 65k a-wing, but I wanted that little bit of extra mass.

You need to find a capacitor in the 7-9k mass range. That is about standard for a capacitor with 40 recharge and 800-1000 total energy.

But even more important are droid programs. Weapon Overload 3 should be your top priority. (Look on vendor under Misc>Droid programming chips) That program will tone down the reactor energy needed for the guns and make each gun take less capacitor per shot. (The program is bugged, enjoy it while it lasts.) Also pickup Weapon Capacitor Overload 3 and possibly Reactor Overload 3.

I have reactor overcharge 3 for my nova. Umm, does this command triple reactor output? Or is it just 3x the overcharge 1 bonus whatever that may be?
