I have taken my TIE advanced out of mothballs and am trying to load it out for PVP. I can use some suggestions to make it better.

I could also use some advice from guys who have used this chassis. How can I get the most out of what this ship can do?

Looks flawless.


IMO I'd link fire the guns. It's almost the same as firing a lvl 10 weapon with .39 refire.

If I calculated the mass right, you are using 64744 mass of a maximum of around 66k.



Youeasily free up a couple hundred mass (actually, you could free up around 1000 mass) by getting lower mass REs done for your booster and capacitor without too much work. Well, without too much hard work. Just hang out at the Gotal spawn point in kashyyyk for a couple days.


With the extra mass saved... hm. Go for a heavier armor plate up front. Mk2 crafted armor at around 650 protection and around 2350 mass.

Might need to bump up the reactor to a MK II if your not running EO4 already.. you'll need EO4.


weapons: an L7 paired with an L5 would offer about the same amount of damage with a faster refire, and i think is rouglhy the same amount of mass as twin L6's. depending on how well they're RE'ed.

True, plus you'd get to use a Borstel for your 7 RE base.

Hmm.I like the suggestion of lvl 7 and lvl 5. I have some lvl 5s on the storage vendor that I really haven't looked at. See what I can come up with.As far as the booster and cap suggestion. They are both good. Just going to take a little more loot collection.


Thanks

Also, maybe look at a mark 1 crafted booster.


They come in at 34 TS and under 1k mass.


Lvl 4 sienar fleet systems light military grade durasteel can be RE'd to 1986/1987 mass and a mated high armor/hp plateas high as 812 hp that I have seen......


The above cap/booster suggestions would put you well within range of the mass needed for those armor plates.

looks identical to mine except you have a better engine and i have a 5/7 gun combo like Rapax mentioned. both gun combos will one shot a player in pvp, but the 5/7 fires a bit quicker.


however with a 6/6 you can alternate the weapons to keep your opponent flying defensive. you wont be getting one hit disables but you will scare the crap out of your enemy and demoralize him when you get shots to connect consistantly. it makes them focus on recharging their shields and evading rather than keeping the heat on you. i do this when i am facing someone i consider to be dangerous, and im more interested in survival than taking them out ASAP.


i normaly do the chain fire even with my 5/7 combo on the start of a fightforget a quick hitto get inside their head, and then switch to linked fire to get the job done.

Wow, I must say that's a great engine. Only thing to consider is... who will you be going up against mostly? I know I would drop the dual 6s for a 7 and extra armor or better shields. But that's just me, call me a **edit**. Altho on the other hand, its not like anything is going to hit you anyways with that engine, great flying and EO4. Great Loadout, but like I said for long hauls and extra survivability try better shields or more armor. Mayb even a crafted low refire LvL7 as ur only gun.
