Those are really nice, the best Mark V Engine I have put out so far is 61 P/Y/R and 117.4 Speed.

Put that in my Royal Guard Interceptor and can hit 1525 with EO3

I think I have the twin to that engine in my Decimator, Janu, we should drag race sometime

Someone on Kette (I forgot who) was asking for hints on making faster engines because he couldn't get over 116... he turns around and made a 119.x engine that blew mine awayafter I helped him

Damn, that would require some seriously amazing resources. The speed on mine is the result of a 90% experimentation outcome. To getany more pointsinto it would have taken near 1000 oq steel and 1000 pe radioactive to pull off. That along with near perfect Fermionic Silicastic for the Overdriver.

I would totally buy those... I am a speed demon.


To bad most SW never sell there specal reserve... they just seem to give it to friends at cost or use it to advertise in PvP on Lowca at least.

I'm a shipwright on Lowca and I have 119.7 spd Mark V engines for sale. They come with pyr in the 62-65 range. I charge 350k for them which is reasonable price compared to other SW's on the server. Especially since I haven't seen a Mark V faster than 119.7 spd. The waypoint to my vendor is in my sig. I had 4 on my vendor last night so you should be able to find one there. If not, let me know and I'll craft one up for you.

On shadowfire I make 119.5 engines (so far the best on our little server) and sell them for 200k a pop. The YPR is low but I'm hoping to correct that with some tapes (if I ever win an auction, lol).

very nice... I bought a couple of these last night on Tomo's vendor. One is for my vaksai and haven't decided what to with the other yet... might put it in my krayt

^ The nova engine is nice, however a re'd lvl 10 engine would be slightly slower but if you were patient you could achieve a r,p,y in the 80's and also probably run EO4 which would push you faster than that crafted engine or about the same speed. I have a re'd 94 speed lvl 10 with 83 r,p,y on my X-wing and in the process of making an even nicer one. With EO4, I do 1200+ with wings closed and 1197 in attack mode.

It is 43k mass but in a Heavy X-wing, that hardly matters.

While the X-Wing engine is decent, there are dropped level 10 engines with starting YPR over 75 that will give the X-Wing a much better edge in both PVE and PVP. As the X-Wing is a giant target compared to a TIE Int or JSF, I think its needed. You would have to sacrifice speed down into the 90s though. Once you could RE it though, you could make it a real beast of an engine. I currently have a 77P 76Y 71R 90.1 on my X and I can turn inside most PVPJSFs and TIE's I've run across, as only a few Starsider pilots seem to really work their engines through RE. Seems they think fast will save them from 3 heavy blasters in their tail. I stuck that engine in my Bel and could put myself on JSF tails and never lose the advantage. I still get cleaned up by the good pilots in my X though.

If you're serious about PvP, go RE'd. You lose on top speed but PYR is much more important and with the current craft system you can't beat RE'd PYR.

RE'd L10 engine will also have a much lower drain (1500 to 1600) then crafted, making it much easier to run EO4 for even more PYR.

Reverse engineering is the way to go:
