  C. Aries  

Could someone please explain to me why the C. Aries is a very good ship?

Thanks

C.Aries is tough, if you build enough of it that is. The upkeep are low compare to their hull strength. Maybe that`s why it`s a very good ship. Weapons are adequately powerful for a corvette.

Maybe Aminers should be able to build them faster. I don`t play miner, im just thinking its a very defensive ship and they are a defensive race. Just a thought.

Aries is simply put the best C class ship there is, second best hull to pr ratio like dp said, and the best damage to pr ratio of all C class. range doesn`t matter so much because all C class aside from Taurus have low range. for attack or defense it`s very usefull it all depends on how you use it though. it`s just a bit time consuming to build

because c.aries actually beats ruby and torum defending from a careful hit at even PR :P

C. Aries also have numbers, u can get tons of the little annoying things lol, to bad they have that one big weakness, but yeah low pr big hull, awesome for any defensive stack =p

C.Aries has the second best hull/pr ratio in the game, the best being the c.gemini

except it has a better weapon to hull/ratio than the gemini, making it a better ship defensively, because it acts less like fodder than gemini, and can fire back

making aloss against it a greater likelihood

big fan ! have a c.aries corvette in my garage

Bab`s I think that having a low overhead and the abilities on Fast and Ultra to build them by the thousands makes the C. Aries a good ship to spam against Spam Stacks but not overly useful to battle good even Stacks.

200 hul with 51 pr is nice. might not be the reason it`s a good ship, but it`s the reason I like it
