Activating cruise drops shields?

[Kambei]

Absolutly stupid antitraderish idea. Good only for bomber owners with SN/inferno or SN/mini or mini/mini combinations which have anticap or antifighter PVP setup and wanna do pirating in free time...

If you want do piracy, setup your ship with with pirate equipment . Train disruptor is basic!!! than decide what style you like ... fast pew pew fight? Or slower funny fight?

equipment ad type of bomber/pirate

PEW PEW PHOUI bomber

Ok equip your bomber with SN/TCD and high hull damage weapons - codies are best.

(standard survive chance in 1 vs 1 with another fighter)

Tactic:

TCD -> blabling in chat -> SN -> wait till you get enough energy for another SN... in middle of waiting another TCD -> SN and trader is blown everywhere around you (if not, he have armor upgrade... dont wait for next SN if he have less than 1/4 of HP... use your codies).

FISHY bomber

If you like slower but more funny style (or you are HC RPyer and use only equipment from your fraction no matter statistcis)... equip your bomber with SN/TCD and fast refire weapons (smallest energy drain if possible) You will bite your target like small fish until you eat him.

(If you arent phenomenal aimer... your chance to survive 1 vs 1 fight with another fighter is only if you use your SN to blast his shield and than blow him with nukes or nuke spam for shield and SN for hull).

tactic:

TCD -> blabling in chat -> SN -> pew pew trader's guns one by one (TCD if needed) -> SN ... yay trader blowed with lot of fun on both sides.... if he have armor upgrade you need to wait for energy for another SN:)

Handy man

If want be more than pirate... for example your guild do some events or you are good in aiming with SN and you are tough enough to face more than 1 fighters this setup is pure badass!

TCD/SN and all weapons debies.

tactic:

TCD -> blabling in chat -> pew pew shilds with debies -> -> SN ... yay trader blown (if not, same as previous)

Benefit of this setup is you high chance for survive in 1 vs 1 or maybe 1 vs ??? if you are goood enough + (giant plus) you are nice suport for your guild mates in bigger fights.

Why have this setup good chance to survive fighter - fighter fight? Because your debies play same role as mini in pvp "semi anticap/fighter" setup. Few blasts kill oponent's shiled and you have clear way to use SN or nukes to kill him. Small ol none energy drain is what your SN baby in pvp need:)Those biiiiig yellow balls called debie blasts are huge enoug to blind your oponent if he isnt smart enough and play with you somthing like knight fight (you know 2 horses from oposite directions, better aiming with spear won). Pew Pew he is blind and without shields... he is stupid and stil in same direction... probably wanna use nukes BUT i have SN buuuuuuuuum he is death. If he is smart enough to strafe, keep his shields down and spam him with nukes.


I know there are better setups for PVP fights but you want do piracy and thats are setups for piracy and maybe selfdefense.
