' Wrote:The weapon restrictions are a little on the annoying side as well. The nomad LF cannot use nomad blasters/cannons, so it's stuck with 'faction' class 9 guns... they look horrible on the ship model as well. The LF cant equip countermeasures or mines - the latter isnt a problem but no CM's means you really cant escape from most npc's outside of new york, and you'll never get away from a pvp whoring idiot player that wants to kill you. The ship also has terrible survivability, it cant even go through some radioactive areas without dying (which is odd considering nomads soak up radiation for power...)
Still, I might give it a shot, if I decide to stick around with all the idiots harassing me left and right.
Actually, you do at least get a cm and mine, but it doesnt make a difference, you die way to fast...
You might die fast, if you fly in a straight line... Light fighters are practically immune from fire, if you dodge properly. You aren't supposed to pvp (and the ship limits you in this aspect), and nomad npcs are easy to avoid. If I can dodge battleship patrols in a Civilian Bomber, one can surely do it in a Nomad Light Fighter.
He could hang around O-90 JH if an admin so kindly slid the nomad faction slider on the IFSO server operator to 9.0, this would have never have happened.

If you are suggesting making the Nomads non-hostile, that enables docking on Nomad bases and buying equipment reserved for the Keepers. Not happening, unfortunately.
ugh...a few class 9 light nomad lasers wouldnt hurt. Those human guns do look weird on nomad fighters,
but i guess his RP is a hybrid so ill shut up now.
Indeed. Nomad Light Fighter is the most versatile fighter in entire game. As I already said: it's a great ship for training fighter skills quickly, as you don't have much of a choice but to learn it well, dodge and aim lightning fast. In fact some of us still prefer Light Fighter to Very Heavy Fighter! People can do wonders in those.
Horrible firepower? Mount minirazor and use it well. Surely capital ships will be off limits to take on, after all it's just a light fighter, but fighters and bombers - you can defend yourself quite well against those.
