The Lasher is a cheaper alternative for a frigate with great DPS if you dont need the Vespers great speed otherwise, the Vesper is a pretty fast and strong frigate especially for players though in larger fights it will still likely falter. Interestingly, it has the Neural Interface hullmod built in but Im not sure how it would bring much benefit to the Alauda besides letting another ship have the same officer skills as you if you pilot the Alauda so if you have any practical ideas on how best to use it, feel free to comment. Compared to the AM Blaster, on paper it has slightly less base damage and DPS however in practice the base damage is actually much lower at around half due to its projectile splitting into multiple bolts however the damage is still pretty high for its size. All AI skills are elite and can be changed in the officer screen at any time for no cost. Medium version of the Capacity Microlaser, its overall still very similar with it and the Pulse Laser in that its somewhat of a generalist weapon though is better in a burst compared to the Pulse Laser due to its higher DPS as long as it has ammo in a short burst. ._3Qx5bBCG_O8wVZee9J-KyJ{border-top:1px solid var(--newCommunityTheme-widgetColors-lineColor);margin-top:16px;padding-top:16px}._3Qx5bBCG_O8wVZee9J-KyJ ._2NbKFI9n3wPM76pgfAPEsN{margin:0;padding:0}._3Qx5bBCG_O8wVZee9J-KyJ ._2NbKFI9n3wPM76pgfAPEsN ._2btz68cXFBI3RWcfSNwbmJ{font-family:Noto Sans,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:400;line-height:21px;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-ms-flex-pack:justify;justify-content:space-between;-ms-flex-align:center;align-items:center;margin:8px 0}._3Qx5bBCG_O8wVZee9J-KyJ ._2NbKFI9n3wPM76pgfAPEsN ._2btz68cXFBI3RWcfSNwbmJ.QgBK4ECuqpeR2umRjYcP2{opacity:.4}._3Qx5bBCG_O8wVZee9J-KyJ ._2NbKFI9n3wPM76pgfAPEsN ._2btz68cXFBI3RWcfSNwbmJ label{font-size:12px;font-weight:500;line-height:16px;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-ms-flex-align:center;align-items:center}._3Qx5bBCG_O8wVZee9J-KyJ ._2NbKFI9n3wPM76pgfAPEsN ._2btz68cXFBI3RWcfSNwbmJ label svg{fill:currentColor;height:20px;margin-right:4px;width:20px;-ms-flex:0 0 auto;flex:0 0 auto}._3Qx5bBCG_O8wVZee9J-KyJ ._4OtOUaGIjjp2cNJMUxme_{-ms-flex-pack:justify;justify-content:space-between}._3Qx5bBCG_O8wVZee9J-KyJ ._4OtOUaGIjjp2cNJMUxme_ svg{display:inline-block;height:12px;width:12px}._2b2iJtPCDQ6eKanYDf3Jho{-ms-flex:0 0 auto;flex:0 0 auto}._4OtOUaGIjjp2cNJMUxme_{padding:0 12px}._1ra1vBLrjtHjhYDZ_gOy8F{font-family:Noto Sans,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12px;letter-spacing:unset;line-height:16px;text-transform:unset;--textColor:var(--newCommunityTheme-widgetColors-sidebarWidgetTextColor);--textColorHover:var(--newCommunityTheme-widgetColors-sidebarWidgetTextColorShaded80);font-size:10px;font-weight:700;letter-spacing:.5px;line-height:12px;text-transform:uppercase;color:var(--textColor);fill:var(--textColor);opacity:1}._1ra1vBLrjtHjhYDZ_gOy8F._2UlgIO1LIFVpT30ItAtPfb{--textColor:var(--newRedditTheme-widgetColors-sidebarWidgetTextColor);--textColorHover:var(--newRedditTheme-widgetColors-sidebarWidgetTextColorShaded80)}._1ra1vBLrjtHjhYDZ_gOy8F:active,._1ra1vBLrjtHjhYDZ_gOy8F:hover{color:var(--textColorHover);fill:var(--textColorHover)}._1ra1vBLrjtHjhYDZ_gOy8F:disabled,._1ra1vBLrjtHjhYDZ_gOy8F[data-disabled],._1ra1vBLrjtHjhYDZ_gOy8F[disabled]{opacity:.5;cursor:not-allowed}._3a4fkgD25f5G-b0Y8wVIBe{margin-right:8px} Well in vanilla you have the Tempest. 2D RPG/Trade/Fleet Combat Game, Press J to jump to the feed.

Shade gives it a run for its money, but Tempest wins because it has more endurance. Omen is one of those frigates you can use from the beginning of the game, to the very end. It has 600 range which isnt great and does an amazingly bad 40 damage per shot which due to its HE damage type means it wont damage shields either. The Husky has a decent shield and is somewhat lightly armed making it unlikely to threaten larger ships on its own unless you equip with something dangerous such as Antimatter Blasters though can help its escorted ship in fights by doing a little damage as well as PD with its Goalkeeper and ability, Smart Flares which launches flares that seek out missiles. Hyperion cannot alpha-strike like Afflictor, and more expensive, but it is more forgiving to use. As the Ziggurat is a unique, distinctive ship, while it is in the player fleet other fleets will always recognize . Skills are permanent bonuses or activated abilities acquired by the player and officers. Starsector 0.95.1a is out! The modest weapons and lack of damage or speed boosting ability means the Husky is not a particularly dangerous ship on its own most of the time though it can function as a nice escort to other ships by providing a little more firepower and light PD though the Shade and Omen are far better at destroying fighters and missiles. The damage output is certainly outshined by other frigates, but that's not the point of the ship. This list will follow largely follow the format of . Starsector version .95.1a is now out! It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. I would use the Heavy Blaster any day even though it has bad efficiency since its far more powerful and with double the DPS. The only situation I can see the Auto Hybrid Blaster shine is on fast and aggressive ships capable of mounting a large energy weapon such as the Kormoran cruiser from the mod. Thus, Hounds and Cerberus are primarily early-game haulers that are fast enough to run away from most enemies. For a frigate, Tempest is an A. Frigates may be a small and sometimes fragile weapons platform, but when utilized correctly they can be very dangerous. It was the Odysseys rank I bumped to C+. Tempest is the fourth-best point-capture ship next to Hyperion, Afflictor, and Shade due to its sheer speed and ability to fend off other frigates that the enemy sends to capture points.

Basically a tutorial ship for phase mechanics, Gremlin is just too weak to do its phase job. The Shalaika is very weak in direct combat and is mainly Nav Relay fodder as well as light PD at the cost of 4 DP so its probably more efficient to deploy dedicated warships most of the time unless you need the speed boost. Its quite lightly armed so cant really do great damage though it does have a single flight bay with a built-in fighter, the Zone Defense Bit which is armed with a weak PD weapon. Unlearned elite skills can be made elite again later without spending any story points. Brawler: C+/C-. The Hyperion is a very good frigate even if you take away the teleporter, having tons of OP, excellent flux stats, a powerful shield, fast speed, and plenty of hard-hitting slots.

ARE YOU A COWARD? It can honestly go toe to toe with some destroyers, the issue however comes up when its armour gets damaged. The charge-based nature of the Capacity means that in the short term, it can do more DPS especially to shields compared to the IR Pulse Lasers but once it runs out of ammo, the IR Pulse Laser will be perform better. Although if you are patient you can do it with Swarmer missiles. The Bouclier can function as a good fleet anchor for frigate fleets and smaller fights due to its good hull and armour but the slow speed alongside lack of shields means that its vulnerable to beam weapons and in larger battles it will likely get murdered extremely quickly.
