I'm just trying to get a good idea of which parts to load into my Advanced X-Wing and whether they be crafted or RE'ed


What i know for sure is i'm keepign my Re'ed 16k mass 36k gen reactor, my 2555 RE'ed shields, and my 3 RE'ed Tr-Cannons.


The rest is up for grabs. Using my droid programs, i already know i'll only need a 21+ recharge on my capacitor.


So regarding all parts aside from Weapons, Reactor and Shield, what should i got for? crafted or RE'ed, and what lvl if you know offhand... thx

Actually, if you plan to PvP in it, I recommend getting 3 L9 quickshot guns.


Also, while your reactor is nice, you're going to end up sacrificing 10k mass that could easily go toward a nice REd engine with high PYR values, or heavier guns.

there aretwo ways you can take this. you can make a l10 re engine powered dogfighting xwing, or you can make a speed demon mkV crafted jousting tank.


with a reactor like that you are in a unique position where you can run engine overload 4 with a crafted 120 speed engine for a cruise speed over 1500. you would go for head on pass kills, and boost outand recharge shields for another run if you miss. your a big target, so expect to soak up a hit or two on each pass. i would suggest running front adjust moderate or heavy and mount some thick armor, along with a nice capactior to use cap to shield shunt with.



the other style would be to use an re'd l10 engine with over 80 ypr to try and dogfight.

I Like the advice. I faield to mention i also have an RE'ed engine w/ 92.9 speed 72.2P 75.4Y and 76.6R. It's not pefect but it gets my YPR values up to 1.3 when i'm in space.


The reason i like the reactor is as you said because of EO4. I'll have to tweak sum stuff and see what kind of results i get w/ a crafted Mk.V engine.
