VHF or bomber - Mojo76 - 05-26-2008
what's a decurion and where can i find it?

I want to say either Cadiz in Omega-5, or the Corsair base in Omega-41, whatever its called.
The Decurion is an elite Corsair light fighter, and while not as effective as the Arwing (please don't use it, its horribly unsportsmanlike) is arguably more useful than the Titan when fighting Sabres. Its getting a buff next version, as well as a new model as I understand.

Thanks for your advices, fellas!. I've made up my mind and will stick to the corsair-vessels. Otherwise it would feel that i'd just let my brothers down. :nono:

Go indy pirate and fly a Stinger. They are on Kurille

Actually Decurion sucks. It's LF and has agility comparable to that of the Sabre.
Pick either Centurion or Titan.

About Stinger, it's a RT with less firepower... In my mind. And it's civilian, no matter for me (hum, well, maybe), but some people could be "disapointed" to be taxed by a civilian ship... Belonging to Corsairs...
Edit : Sleipnir, two people saying the same thing is better than one...

' Wrote:Go indy pirate and fly a Stinger. They are on KurillePlease don't. The Stinger is bugged due to its hitbox and it is a GMG ship, sold on a Samura planet... two major corporations, both not involved in pirating.
As a generic pirate, there is plenty of choice available, really. Of course, your chosen tag narrows it down, but that's how it should be.
Edit: argh, didn't see pim's post. Anyways, the point stands.

Yeah, seems to me there was a certain sanction about that not too long ago. Hmm.
Like Sleipnir said, its also a corporate ship, respectably bugged (not like Taiidan VHF at least, but still), is worse than the RT, and looks funny.
Don't use it.

I had a one-on-one fight yesterday, my VHF vs a bomber. The fight dragged on, and I was soon out of ammo (maybe he was too, not sure). That, sadly, was no stalemate as the bomber still had a trump card: The good ol' energy-based torpedo weapon. Needless to say, I eventually ran into one with shields down.
So... bomber.

Yeah, Bombers have that advantage, although Light Fighters own them hopelessly. Unless the LF pilot doesn't know what they're doing, the bomber pilot simply can't land a torpedo and it comes down to the bomber having to out-aim a light fighter. Which doesn't work.
