PVP-ing

Post by Mad-Max »

I was interested in ur opinion for the best ship, not only the fast, but strong and with alot of firepower, I'm flying an Anubis MK2, but I'm not so satisfied, so I'm looking for better one. 8) :twisted: 8) :twisted: 8) :twisted:
I can't decide between Sabre and Eagle-Titan droped out in a first run because it has turet without use-it shoots only backwards. :? :? :?

Cya in space m8's-I hope, soon with better ship :twisted: 8) :twisted: 8) :twisted: 8)

I must absolutely go with the Conqueror. With a Robot Thruster it's uber fast in a PvP. Also it has two turrent that can shoot both back and forward. Even though it technically has the same turning as Anubis MK II... somehow it seems to out-manuver it much better for some reason...

Any one who has PvPed me can say how much damage a Conqueror can give, and if anyone else would like to take me up on that... I'd be more than happy to PvP you in the near future... ;)

Hi scal :)

Anubis MKII = slow turning
Eagle = low firepower

The conq however fits me verry well, turnrate is slow but the firepower on the ship makes it up 8)

ok you need a lesson in pvp mate, to say that the Eagle has a low fire power???? wtf??????? you obviously cant use it right, i had a one hour long pvp with knights Ram lastnight, i was in a conq he was in a eagle, for most of the fight was lag, but i was unable to defeat him, you just got to know the ship and get used to the way they move, find a ship and stick to it.

8O 8O 8O

first i must say something..about 2 (3) months ago i was in titan and i must say that its a very good ship...
lol..at that time i was the only one in titan..
he isnt fast as eagle or sabre,but he have more armor then them and if u know how to use it it can be really good ship...

second: eagle
less fire power and less hull..thats obvies...
but his turns and moves are really something else...no ship cant match eagle,except horus in speed....
one more thing -> 1 torp and u are dead,it isnt matter if u have shild or not u are dead....maybe u survive but if its a direct hit u are dead dead dead..
and 1 mine and over half of your hull is down..eagle isnt for every1...
and i'll repeat that EAGLE ISNT 4 EVERY1
dont look at ppl that has beaten u in eagle andthink that u can do the same coz it require a lot of practice and a lot of patience..
i'll repeat again EAGLE ISNT 4 EVERY1

third:
like i said -> sabre is the best ship for u now...
its very fast,and coz of it's design very hard to hit..has enought fire power and turrets fire foreword (not like on eagle)...


The Choice Is Yours...Pick Carefully!!

Getting to know ur ship is the first half i think, second is set up.

With a light ship u have less power so u must make every shot count. U will not make it when starting to fire from far and keep shooting. So u must stay close to ur enemy and have a setup that does the most damage in just a few shots. The agility makes that possible. Going head to head will make u vulnerable to missles , torps and ur opponents aim. Hull is ur weak point so that will not be a good situation to be in.

With heavy ships it is the opposite imo. U can shoot ur guns for a longer period of time wich means u can create a distance and still do damage. U'll need distance to be able to turn anyway. In a heavy fighter ur enemy will be the same or more agile then u so faster weps r better.

These whould refer to both ends of the spectrum, a ship in the middle like the sabre, Titan is harder. Ur enemy could be more agile or slower then u so u need the ability to get in close or create distance and have a wep setup that can deal with both situations

True, i cannot handle it well. A ship still is a personal thing, i have had an anubis, conq and an eagle. The conq suits me better than any other ship i have used.

Gar har as i have said many times before there be no best ship on void its the pilot which makes it count as all ships have different abilities but can equaly fight each other in a pvp.

It be the pilot which wins the pvp if u use ur ship 2 the best of its abilities.

And many say the N1 is crap, ye who say that knows nothin, it be a great missles boat, but it still be a great ship with jus lasers if ye have the best wep layout and u use the right tactics it be unbeatable trust me on this one gar har gar har gar har. :twisted:

the n1 as missile boat? sorry, but there are better around.

It has a lot of gun energy- more than eagle- which is wasted using missiles.
The eagle in turn has more usable hard points.
The n1 has just 5 hardpoints (the turret is crap) giving it a mere 25% more firepower than the light fighters, with a severly loss in maneuvrability, and its a fair chunk bigger than the lights.

If you do well in a n1 its fine- but i tell you you will propably do even better in a more well setup ship. For example the sabre.. it handles the same as the N1, but has 2 usable gun mounts more than the n1. (an 40% increase in overall firepower to the n1)
