Just curious what ya'll thought was the ultimate pvp ship build? I have been thinking about a reset, or doing something different. but had not decided what I wanted to do yet. Hope to get some feed back from those on the leader board too. Being ultimate I would want to assume you have 100% research done in all trees and access to all of the current mods in the game. Oh and if building because of a specific race profession please indicate that also as some mods have bonuses with profession/race. Me personally my ship will also have at least 50 scan so i can find that ocasional rare npc to pop up on my bt.

Define ultimate pvp
Hardest to kill, or best at killing others?

I'd probably say ssb though.

If your going for ultimate pvp ship then am i correct in assuming that you are including hacking in this as well?

Look up either RustyTinCan, RigorMortis, or Elerian, for the toughest PvP ships I know (that is, ended up being trashed by) in my rank range... Except Rigor, but that's cus he is Leader of TSL, which I happen to be a member of..)

The Black Pearl also has a very nice ship.

by ultimate I was referring to hard to kill but able to easily disable most anyone else. I had not thought too much about hacking but figure with minor change would be easy to incorporate. like for example what would the guys on the leader board go wow I'm not screwing with them no mater what rank they were.... maybe I should petition dan to let me copie his ship since everyone is afraid of it


I know there are a lot of really good ship but was wondering what the ultimate dream ship was

get about 1 Trillion artifact points and just enough decks that you can fit % boosting items, and scanners for scan runs.

a Ship that can auto ranking just from scanning planets and purger mission.

i know somone close to doing that

My answers I can garuntee you will vary from most others, but i value things differently
Do bear in mind that all of these are heavily reliant on HIGH APH, and strong research. The upkeep varies from build to build so mining is more or less important depending on which you are talking about.

best all round :: hard to find / hacker : zolazin spy -> crazy high cloak bonus means easy hacks, and you stay off the radar darn well most the time wont save you from legion alerts though...

hard to kill / annoying : SSB Lazuli Fixer -> just enough decks to fit on all hull mods, shields when you get high enough rank [ good luck on doing this, you'll need crazy APH, as ALL rank points go into engineers / tacs ]

Good choices: SSB - mid ship Aerlen / Konquol Fixer -> high defense / attack, high hull, decent damage cap, and can fit what you need for when you need it.

Best Tactical Advanatage [ my current end game plan ] : Xecti Fixer -> good hull, high response ability, amazing planetary affect. comboed with the trinity drives and the auto evasion node to really push your DEF up.

On the SSB note, SSBs require much more AP/h than their peers in their rank range to remain competitive (BabyX has an absolutely insane SSB), and DemonShadow in WDE (his name has quite a few numbers) is a good example of a MSB that ranks moderately fast (and last I saw, he had about 8500 attack with only two Thetacrons, various NPC/mission attack modules, and not much else in attack installed), while The Black Pearl is an awesome example of a slow-ranking LSB (for his rank).

Golgotha is also a high-rank, renowned MSB. Overall I would personally say that, for overall utility, a MSB is best (and at higher ranks will become a SSB).

thanks for the replies, guess I'll keep plugging along and grow into my ship. and greatly increase my ap

Ramix isn't that strong for his rank... just 12k each attack and defense. But he sure was smart, with those crazy runs and then halcing up afterwards. Sounds like no fun to me, but if what you want from the game is amazing stats, then that's the way to go.

MSB deffo.

babyx aint that hard to disable lol. good ssb though.

Just dan's ship has around 7/12 strength of the whole dysonians legion. So yes, ultimate pvp ship. Let me go check his exaft strength...
1.9 million strength, wonder if anyone has seen him on their bt...
