Thread: Level 6 RE engine project. Your thoughts appreciated :-)
I doubt you'll ever get another prenerf level 6. Shoot for 69+ on YPR pre-RE--it's achievable.
I ended up dishing out some creds to pick up a 8.8k mass level 6 engine, but you've got me beat on reactor drain. Really, I'd try for at least 9k mass and better YPR than that.
Right don't waste good parts on a great engine, hold out for those better parts. Think of it this way, you have held onto it this long why not try to make it the best ever, not many more pilots are going to be able to best you.
Here I thought I was the only one still with an UnRE'd Prenerf Inferno. I have a pitch of 69.x engine, but everything else you are beating mine.
I have one with 15.2k mass, so yes there are better out there.

wow 69 pre eh? Well I have ye tto see it, but I wil lmore than take your word for it. Time to go looting :-)
8.8k! /drool
I wish
I got my reactor down too 4.9k with 14.3k gen
and I have a pre nerf 500 wieght DI @ 14.7
Made my own armor 2.2k per plate 698 f/b
RE'd a lvl 2 cap 1150 energy 35 rechanrge for 1.1k mass and 600 drain.
Im working on 2 RE Boltdrivers, not sure what good stats on those are yet, but I have quite a few lvl 7 guns stashed. worried more about mass and drain there, dmg is esay and effectiveness is not too hard I imagine. I have 2 .318 refires for them so Im good there (I think)
Shields, man this is hard. I cant find a good mass on lvl 7 for my Prtecto nets. I have a 2053 f/b but I cant find anything less than 17k mass. and nothing under 2.1k drain. Is there anything better?
Thanks for your help!
sitting at
P - 69.5
Y - 68.8
R - 68.8
They are out there, you got me beat by 31 on drain though but I'm also sitting on an 84xx mass one as well, gonna be sweet when I finally finish
I was about to ask for advice about maximum YPR for my pre-nerf lvl 6 engine. ![]()
Guess I'll keep waiting. Best I've seen so far is 67.
Thanks guys
I RE'd my prenerf at 68.5 for all stats. At some point I just wanted to fly with the engine, and not farm anymore. I've never seen an engine above 68.7 - while they are out there they're unbelievably rare, and quite possibly don't drop that high.
Mass can get as low as 9k (I looked that a month ago) and I saw one on SS for 8.8k. I would hold out for at least a 9200 if you're flying TIEs.
Nice reactor drain!
