Taiidan Fighter

[Jinx]

i feel the energy drain fairly quickly when i mount reavers on a hammerhead. - i do agree that the hammerhead is well balanced, but then... its an original vanilla ship.

about why the taiidan ship is worse in certain parts. one reason is that its not a vanilla ship - and so does not share the same weakness. a hammherhead is vulnerable to all blast damage like all other original ships, - while a taiidan fighter takes only little damage from missiles.

all in all - both ships appear to be well suited for jousting and quick hit-and-run operations. they do not have the energy to do constant damage. - actually, i had quite some problems fighting middle-class transports ( like borderworld, percheron etc ) in a hammerhead alone, cause the energy wouldn t allow to do enough damage. ( in that case i had the very same equipment like the NPC BHGs, a mixture of buckshots and reavers - no delibitators )

i think the hammerhead is among the best balanced ships ( don t know about the manta, never had one ) - it feels like you d expect a VHF of the first generation should feel like. - funnily enough its worse in all stats compared to the blood dragon, which is classified as a heavy fighter.
