Heh, I'll add the masses tonight.

Reactor: L7 RE, 26400ish energy

Rear Armor: L5 Crafted, 1046 Armor points
Droid Interface: L1 RE, 14.2 Speed

Droid Protocols: Reactor Overload 4, Engine Overload 4, Weapon Capacitor Overload 4, Weapon Overload 2, Capacitor to Shield Shunt 4

My Adv. X has much further go. Mine still relies heavily on crafted parts, since most of my RE projects are in their early stages. I'll have an RE8 or 10 engine....one of these days. At least I have a Kuat R-CTZ reactor to handle EO4. My selection of quickshot guns at least makes a good killbox for swatting JSFs.

My heavy-x is for pve only, so it's all about damage damage damage.

L7 protect-o based shield, L8 engine, 10/10/8 RE guns that go "BOOM BLAM bang"

That reactor is sick! I could make my Heavy X so mean if I had one like that. My biggest issue is energy consumption. I can't run any Overload 4's without stalling out my systems. Bah.

I seem to have really bad luck when it comes to lootings good components.

Nice work Monsofo. With only a 1200 drain on that engine, you should have no energy problems if you ran RO4 with a crafted level 1 reactor with 12.5k energy. I am not even accounting for WO3 in there. With no WO3, you need 23820 energy. 23820/1.9=12536. A high quality mark I can reach that. Mark II or REd L2 if you cannot find a >90% energy reactor.

Also, your booster should say (reward). Only a tier-2 reward booster yields a level 4 booster like that. Personally, I stick to crafted Mark I or II boosters myself. You are getting 14 seconds of boost. A Mark I booster with overcharger, all points into consumption then energy, yields about 14.5 seconds of boost at around 26 speed for only 1k mass.

The cap can be better, but that one is really good.

I wish I had that engine. I need to do a L10 engine and another L8 blaster to finish my heavy X.

I seldom post my own ship loadouts, but that reactor drain on that engine made me jealous.

Well, according to my calculations, ***in theory*** it should be possible to load up an advanced x-wing with:

3 level 10 guns
level 8 reward shield
prenerf level 1 DI
prenerf level 6 reward engine
Level 9 missle launcher of choice
level 4 capacitor
level 4 booster
level 2 REd reactor or Mark I or II crafted (1500 - 3000)

and still have a good 7-10k mass for armor. Remember, this is theory only, and would require the absolute lowest mass components you could possibly get your hands on. The *exceptional* stuff, like 40k mass guns before RE. This is done using the mass values reported by spaceloot.com (great site).

If I saw anyone and knew they had that kind of loadout, I would be afraid. Very afraid.

Why? 3 L6's is a one hit kill in PvP. 3 L10's is just overkill. Fear 3 L6's with L10 engine, not the other way around.

Well, we also have to think of the future, when someone might be having fun in a POB ship with the newly competitive POB components. I don't think that 3 level 6s would necessarily be a one hit kill anymore, though I could be wrong. I forget the stats of the shields, but I do remember the armor being something like 7.7k...

Yup, my advanced Xwing load out will be

lvl 10 engine with 100+ speed 80+ YPRs (i have this, movie look style)

lvl 8 shield (i have this)

2 lvl 9 REed blasters (based around the Rendili advanced for movie look style and blue lasers, only have 1)

1 lvl 7 Reed blaster (again based around a rendili, not movie look, but its the inner weapon, and blue lasers, i have this)

lvl 4 REed booster (have one, but working on others)

lvl 4 or 6 capacitor, depending on the RE (have some but going for better)

Sensor decoy launcher (have one)

Mark 3 proton launcher (maybe a 4 if i can shave enough mass off on REes)

DI REed (I have a prenerf but want one with more armour protection)

reactor REed (i have a high power low mass/level one, but when i Re post 24 ill see what i can fit in, also need a higher level for more armour points)

and a bucket load of armour to fill the rest out.

New version I'm considering
