Teladi Phoenix

Post by Jeremy Harbottle » Fri, 27. Aug 10, 11:47

Just in the interest of game balance, I feel it would have been more interesting, and contrasting for that matter, if the phoenix were given an even slower speed like 24m/s but 16GJ Shields.

Any thoughts on this?

Do something with it at least, as as far as I am concerned all the pheonix is worth is 50mill sell back...

catra, what do you mean "a spike in shield regen" - does it have one, or are you saying you wish it did?

It has the lowest shield generator of all M2s, bar Xenon and Khaak.

But if it's like in X3R, it only uses one shield, but big. That means it loads much faster than the up to 12 shields in other capital ships.

doesn't that mean that it's just quite rubbish? Are there any redeeming factors? :roll:

The Phoenix uses 5 x 2GJ shields, while the average is 4x2 GJ shields for most, and 6 x 2 GJ shields for Terran / ATF.
