I kept my Inferno after the shitstorm of vitriol unleashed after the Ares was nerfed - sure, I didn't fly it as much, but every once in a while I'll pull it out. Recently, it's become closer to the god of war of it's namesake. I definitely could have melted it ages ago and then picked it up again, not saying that isn't the way to go. Point of the story is - I'll keep my Santokyai as well, and see how things develop.

I have been waiting for this ship since I joined. I tried it in the PTU build, loved it, but probably not going to keep it. It's too expensive for it's use, it's nice to have to climb the bounty rep, but after you hit HRT's you really want something with cargospace to earn the real money. I'll probably upgrade mine to a Corsair and it will likely be one of the first ships I'll buy in game after wipes

Wait... You rammed a neutral bounty msr and it worked out for you?!?! Truly this ship must be blessed!

Some ships are just flawed by their design from a start. This ship is a good example of it. I thought to buy it, but I remember my struggles with Khartu and... naaah, it's not worth it. As with most of alien ships, you won't regret buying it only when you become "air conditioner" of its design.

@@retrowrath9374 Fair enough, I get your point. Yet most of the time CIG releases ships buffed for good salea and then somewhat downgrade it to fit existing shipline. There are tons of ships to re-balance to make them viable in current state. I fear, that waiting for balance will take more than a while. Until then we have to fly this very ship as it is for years. Not to mention it's rival Sabre with slim front profile, better weapon placement and more reliable engines (simply because of their placement). I'm not saying that this ship is just bad. On its own it is a fine craft, but it have more potent rivals. And no matter of balance, this huge crosssection will still be there.
@WingZeroType
9 ай бұрын
I'd say this ship rivals the smaller heavy fighters more than the sabre. But I definitely understand struggling with how this ship has ended up. Personally, I think they need to make it have significantly stronger side strafe g-forces to help account for its lower dps and large profile
