OK so I'm 3333 Freelance and I see that the Ixiyen has worse YPR and less mass than the Dunelizard, same weapon loadout?!?


Is it supposed to be like that? Why would anyone "upgrade" to this ship?

Hey, its Tier 3 so it MUST be good, right?

Either that or they put it high up so newbies don't accidentally get one until they know better.

Dunelizard has 85k mass, Ixiyen has 95k mass.

I have never flown one myself...

I have never flown a dunelizard but the Ixiyen does have more mass (unless you get ripped off by a really bad SW) and even 10k mass can make a big difference. Especially in the Teir 4 missions.

Ahh, I checked the FAQ and it listed it as 65k. Guess it's a typo.


Thanks. You're right 10k mass is a hugh difference.

Oops, I must be Dyslexic. It's 65k resources and 95k mass. My mistake.
