Pilot Archive

I've taken to using a belbulab instead of a JSF, and I was wondering if it's considered a lame, RotW ship in most PVP pilots eyes? The only real reason I use it is because I refuse to use a JSF, and the belbulab is the only other 90k mass ship option I have as an imperial pilot, minus the heavy TIE, which I find repulsive.

I think it's the "generic" stigma that keeps people away from it.

Not only that, but the platform itself is prone to the "Default Appearance" bug which results from weapons that weren't given proper graphics, as well as certain weapons which fire straight up.

Also, I think the "black box" bug (the Def Appearance glitch) might just enhance the hitbox of the ship greatly - as I died on my first attempt at the Vette in RSF. Every single turret could get a shot in, and assuming I had the same characteristics as the JSF, I took license.

Thankfully the "Default Appearance" weapon worked properly.

The one thing the Bel-22 has in its favor over the JSF is it has (in my opinion) a much tighter fire aperture - but the JSF's is so similar that it's not a deal-breaker.

the B-22 is exactly the same ship stat wise. It just has a slightly larger hitbox. It's still smaller than most hitboxes.
