Thread: Patch 11.5?
Profession Pilots
- Added the M22-T "Krayt" Gunship as a neutral master-box gunship. This ship is equipped with a player controlled turret, like the Y-wing and TIE Aggressor.
Are shipwrights getting this as a craftable ship or is this some sick joke and it will be an RE item like the firespray? There isn't something saying "Profession Shipwrights".....
Got a link to the patch notes, incidentally?

These should be player-craftable and usable for master privateers. 150K resources and all.

I hear they handle the same as a rhik but are ugly as can be.
The stats work out mathmaticly about the same as a Rihk PYR 100/100/50 but top speed is higher at .92, but those are very decieving....
I can tell ya, they fly a HELL of a lot better then the Rihk, IMHO. They must have a much better sweet spot. I was able to follow around A-Wings and fast TIEs, in combat,in kessel no problem in the Kryat but not able to stay near as close in the Rihk.
Also did my Space Station test (flying "inside" the openings of the station and trying to make the loop around the back and theninside the other side's SS "wing") and was able to get around the station in the Krayt almost as well as in my dunelizard, the Rihk just can't make the turns, even at partial throttle.
So the stats might look close to the Rihk, but I swear it handles closer to a dunelizard then a Rihk.....
NOTES Round 2....
Hardpoint placement: The Krayt has a wider spread of the pilots 3 hardpoints then a Rihk. This is both good and bad, 2 of the guns are front and center, the last hardpoint is on wing tips....
PROS: Geat concentration of 2 guns, with 1 slightly spread helps get a few more shots landed when chassing the fast flyers, The MP gun is a top turret, loots like full sphere of movement so with a 2nd the Krayt can bring a ton of firepowr
CONS: When you bring your A-game in a Rihk the tight gun placement is hard to beat ![]()
