current layout?

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

current layout?

whats your current ship/gun layout?

i like the corsair just cause it has a rear facing turret. although the sabre is most deifnitely a nice ship.

i run two layouts, either:
6x skyblast b's and its turret

or

2x tizona del cid
2x catapult missiles
2x lancer missiles
and a skyblast b turret on the assmount

i use two types of missiles so i get a total of 25 shots (if i press the fire missiles button) and also to save money (one shot can takeout a hammerhead, i rarely face anything stronger so its all good (if i do i'll upgrade the catapults to the highest level i forgot what they're called). i usually fire when they charge at me and if they're still alive i can just go to turret mode and get em while they're behind me.


what i use usually depends on how im feeling or who im fighting. if its against nomads i usually run the skyblasts (cause tizonas are useless and its just not economical to use missiles against them) for anything with shields i'll use the tizona/missile layout

I'm using (in my Eagle):
1 Tizona DC
1 Salamanca Mk II
2 Nomad Blasters
2 Nomad Cannons (gonna get 2 more blasters for these slots...)
no turret (screws up targeting)

I'm thinking of trying to get in w/the GMG to get some Skyblast B's and try that setup, since lots of people say it's really good...
