What class of ship is the Bustard tech wise? - Exploration - 07-09-2016
This may seem like a really obvious question but the other day i noted how i couldn't mount a Cloak disrupter (for a BS/Carrier) on the Bustard. The magical green text saying it can't be mounted on a Liner class.
Does this now mean the Battleship cloak doesn't work on here either? was kinda wanting to get one for it but i don't really want to buy a MK2 Adv cloak to find it doesn't work. Anyone know the answer to this thing? i really have no idea. I initially thought it was classed as a Carrier as far as tech goes and basically anything for a Battleship/Carrier would work on it.
Cheers for the input

Ever since it was converted from the Barge into a "everyone can use" carrier, it was demoted to a Liner specs. Other than some weapon slots above the average, I believe the equipment is of the transport/liner class.

its a liner class ship, i think it was done that way so a freelancer could use it, so a transport class cloak should work mate note 100% sure but i think a transport cloak would do it

For me, it's the weirdest prototype i have ever seen ...

Wait, the Corvo uses the MKII Advanced but the Bustard needs the transport cloak?

corvo is a gunboat
Bustard is a liner class so my guess would be that a transport cloak is what it needs not a cpt ship cloak since a liner is a transporter

Thanks, I knew that, but it's still a funny thing, as the Corvo is a Gunboat with Cruiser shields and Battleship cloak, and the Platypus-Bustard a Carrier with Cruiser shield, transport cloak and a Battleship Secundary turret.

I tried both on my Bustard's Cloak MK II Advanced and Cloak MK III even the transport cloak. Imo the MK II advanced works better on this ship.
Cheers

What do you mean by that? Can you use both cloaking versions?
