99+ day(s) ago | Depends on what you want to do. If staying low in PR or want ships that will fight a UW you`ll want different ships than if you want to take the ranks.
Low PR:
Terran - thor or zeus, tyr, nirv. Miner - chlor or chlorite, flysch, epidote. Maru - pyth, tiger, pike.
If going for higher pr, I`d substitute herc for the P class. Maru list I wouldn`t change. Lyth is a good ship, but depending on income type and your total land, may not be able to afford it. I`d change out epidote for aragonite and maybe chlor/chlorite for lyth.
And since the RT market is out of mins again, if you are doing this on that server hal and ryu jin look really attractive. lol |
Crack
99+ day(s) ago | 1) My only loss in 80over battles during my uw was to an m.hal spam..
2) im eccentric.. I dont follow the mass..
3) on rt, buildrates dont affect as much as tb..
4) i rather ryu jin but as terrans are the balanced shiplist amd maru is cheap..
5) im crack.. |

99+ day(s) ago | I`ll take my crack at this again as well....
tiger
pike
pyth
lyth
flysch or arag
chlor
herc
nirvana
tyr
ffast climbing stacks still have range with pike and tiger yum yummies |

99+ day(s) ago | hal is a good ship to spam on careful. |

99+ day(s) ago | crack, m.HAL? Why lol. |
Crack
99+ day(s) ago | Though i wont use this shiplist if im viral on rt.. Go figure..
Tired.. Nites people.. |
Crack
99+ day(s) ago | D.ang.. I posted before i could finish..
Continued..
U will use ur v.borrs and v.cronus(as long u have paid) due to capture ability, a fez due to thier better def mods to missile(most attackers will try hitting u with missile), at least 2 maru ships due to their cheap upkeep.. Which means u wont use all ur rev engineered ships most times.. Dont try hitting with a known stack.. Reshuffling ur stack is KEY..
Though spamming lyth, pyth or v.borres do help at times.. Chiron is a gd uw ship if u on slower server.. 2 caps ships is gd enough unless u wanna play at above 20million pr more consistently..
Only my opinion.. |
Crack
99+ day(s) ago | Maru.. The most lowest upkeep.. Gd ships to use when credits are low..
Pyth.. Cap ship and the most affordable to spam..
pike.. Dual energy and kinetic.. Range 9..
Tiger.. Lowest upkeep for a range 9 missile..
Aminer.. Most expensive.. Greater hull on average to pr..
Lyth.. Cap ship.. Spamming this will win u most battles.. Expensive though..
Chlor.. Hull 5k to pr 1.6++k.. Good def modifiera.. Put top on a balance stack normally..
Hal.. Something unpredictable.. Use scarcely.. Lol..
Terran.. A nicely balance shiplist..
Fenrir.. A ship that is in between pike and chlor.. Go figure..
Herc.. Another cap ship.. Weakness to fez though if u on rt, i will not take this..
Zeus.. Better buildrate than thor.. Better hull to lesser weapon slightly again to thor.. 2nd highest range, 10..
With all this in mind |

99+ day(s) ago | Terran:
Thor
Tyr
Herc
Flysch
Chlor
Epidote or Chlorite - depends on how you wish to play, or you can get the Lyth, but Tyr is more than satisfactory for it.
Pyth
Pike
Shark
Then again I play like 5-25 mil pr and don`t mind 10 stacking defensively as viral, hence why Ilke this setup for myself, but this i my opinion. |
AshyLarry
99+ day(s) ago | EPIDOTE > CHLORITE |
ThEpAkIsTaNiEmPirE
99+ day(s) ago | instead of barra try shark :). Instead of Thor try nirvana, because youll have clorite as miner. Im looking at Forsakenwolf`s first post. |

99+ day(s) ago | P odin

forsakenwolf

forsakenwolf

AccordEX
99+ day(s) ago | Terran-
T.maru
T.Emp
Nirvana
Maru-
Eel
Manta
Pirhana
Aminer-
M.Hal Fighter
Argonite
M.Chlor
If you want to be a extremist this is the way to do it =) |
Crack
99+ day(s) ago | Chlorite better than calcite in more ways unless u going for hull and around 5k pr per build rate..
Chlor rather than arag.. |
CeeLoGuardian
99+ day(s) ago | i had a great time with:
fenrir, thor, herc
calcite, arag, lyth
pike, tiger, pyth
if you WANT to cap spam you have the nessessities, and 10 stacking on aggressive was quite effective, just a little slow.
***note, this list wasnt my idea got it from an already established viral |
FlashysDomain
99+ day(s) ago | Shattered ... I agree with your detailed behindysis, and have the following comments ...
Zues, Tyr, Nirvs
And those da*n Aragonites. Anyone using those and Lictors oughtta be taken out and shot. |
Deathroe
99+ day(s) ago | I think it depends (somewhat) on what type of empires you will be attacking and your playing style. But, overall::
Herc, Nirvana, Tyr
M chlor, M Flysh, M lyth
Pyth, Pike, Tiger (barricuda is nice too) |
ShatterdDreams
99+ day(s) ago | Herc....
it`s a useful ship no matter the pr range, and with all the guards hanging around a ship that will see alot of use
Thor or Zues....
it`s all about the range, eventually you`ll always want something to take down a pike spam or some other god awful 9 range ship spam and this will be your ship to do it with (depending if you`d rather have 11 range or better hull)
Tyr, Nirvana, Fenrir, Ryu...
depending on your other ship choices and pr you want to eventually play at..
Lyth...
you`ll just need a 7 range missile boat, this is it
Chlor..
an unbelievably hard ship to kill all of enmass, no matter the line up
Flysch or Aragonite...
probably Aragonite though because of it`s build rate and it`s dual energy kinetic damage and it`s good shields
Pyth...
I hate this ship, i don`t like using it, but it is useful and versatile
Pike...
9 range energy kinetic, need there be any other reason
Tiger...
The most OP`d missile boats and secretly OP`d ship in the game, the only reason it`s not out of the closet is because it is a missile boat
