The Corsairs' survival is rooted in their ability to survive and adapt, the Titan is no different. On the surface the design is somewhat visually similar to the M7 Class, however the power system is a revolutionary step forward and the armor rating is the heaviest available. This provides maximum offensive and defensive capabilities while still delivering speed and maneuverability. This ship is, in short, the one.

Handling

Outdated Review (4.85)

Review (4.85) The M8 Titan Very Heavy Fighter, in comparison to other ships of its class, is more heavily armoured but, as a result, less maneuverable. Whilst skilled Corsair pilots have developed specialized techniques and dog-fight styles to compensate for the Titan's comparatively low turn speed, pilots who are new to the Titan may struggle to adjust to the unique but powerful ship. The Titan's heavy armor and large powerplant favor direct, head on attacks. Jousting is a very effective tactic, as it uses the ship's advantages to gain the upper hand.

Outdated Review (4.85)

Review (4.85) The famous VHF of the Corsairs, main rival of the Sabre and the Eagle. This ship is the heavier, slower and more powered. Most people choose devastating Sabre or agile Eagle instead of the defensive Titan, and Titan is underestimated in most case, but this unique babe has her own advantages. Her power can sponsor a full set of 4x CODEs and 2x del Cids, a monstrous blow to even gunboats and cruisers. Also she is quite small and hard to be hit especially while vertical strafing, which compensates for slow turning speed. The power core is what leaves others behind, with ability to spam Mini Razor shots, thus makes her an anti-everything. Strong armor to withstand to deal the heavy blows and unspreaded weapon hardpoints to guarante attack with best precision, better than that of Sabre or Eagle. Only low agility and the back-firing turret is quite a drawback, therefore tactics are essential in every fight. Here are what based on my experiences: Vs. Fighters and light Bombers: Titan will be outmanuvered so jousting is recommended. Fire all guns, then drop CD and EK right when 2 ships pass each other. You can use other tactics you like however. Vs. Bombers and SHFs: Titan is faster, so keep on their tails and fire guns and CD. Or you can fly around them and use Mines-CD combo. Or just jouist and strafe and dodge, and be patient. Vs. Gunboats and Cruisers: Get behind/under them, keep a 500~600m distance - Strafe hard and fire all guns - Get out, recharge and again. Vs. Battleships: Don't unless you have 6x del Cids and a Mini Razor. Titan is the true scourge of the Houses, against all odds, the last stand of all battles. In the hands of a skilled pilot, she is, in short, the ONE. Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Review by Cyber Dragon
