Osprey/cerberus have more spread out turrets so possibly better in AI hands.īest Destroyer: Odysseus. All turrets are top-facing allowing the player to focus all weapons on one target easily. Best frontal firepower on a Medium ship.īest frigate: Gorgon. Fantastic all around, probably the best player ship.
Consider Eclipse if you want 2x more hitpoints but less speed/firepower.īest (and only) Corvette: Nemesis. (basically the Erinyes from Freespace 2). Weakness: interceptor-sized hull/shields. fastest ship in the game (RIP X3 Kestrel)īest fighter: Pulsar.: 6 hardpoints, best for any small ship. Expect more variant classes to come.īest Interceptor: Perseus (interceptors are meant to be fast, perseus is fastest one.īest scout: Pegasus. Dont take my words as gospel as I'm not crazy far but here's what I've figured so far when it comes to combat ships:Īlso a note about Variants: vanguard variants have a boost to speed, sentinel variants have a boost to hull strength and cargo.
