What''s the best ship?

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!

i say only way i'm saying that i think that the banshee is the best vhf-killer...

@viper, drake is the bestest allrounder, bestest light fighter and heavy fighter killer, but have a little to less power to be a very good vhf-killer, so that y i'm choosing for the banshee as the ultimate vhf-killer, and the sabre is easy prey for an eagle

Well, thank you for clarifying that but it seems you're basing the "bestest" (I love that word) as the strongest LF. I admit that the Banshee can carry heavier missile loadouts but the Drake is better for evading class 10 weapon fire .

As for the Sabre, with reverse thrust it can outgun an eagle while keeping up with its maneuverability. If it gets behind you you can always release the Rippers .

EDIT: Also, don't think I think I know everything when I posted this, 'cause I know I don't.

ok, here is the best ship.....TITAN!!!!!! the titan RULES the sky...er...space! anyway, the titan is the best so yeah!!

Post Sun Dec 07, 2003 3:56 am

Please give a reason. You cannot deny that the Titan can manuver as well as the Humpback.

Post Sun Dec 07, 2003 11:00 pm

Nah...Titan is far more maneuverable than a humpback...but it is the lowest-rated fighter as far as turning goes. Just higher than the fastest freighter, I think.

Or get the Juni Defender. There is not limit on the Shield batteries and Nanobots on that thing. I remember having 50 000 shield batteries and flying around and showing pplz.

It was a modded server, no I wasn't cheating.

Post Tue Dec 09, 2003 12:44 am

Heh, yeah, I guess I shouldn't have posted that. Or this. I'll just let it die now.
It's just that this is my first "Best Ship" thread, except the one i dug up from 3 months ago. Anyways, I'm done now.
