Any pilots you or your opponents particularly fear? For my main opponent it's Wedge.
Most Feared Pilot
Han Solo
Whichever one is behind my ship at range 1 and about to fire...
When playing my decimator, Etahn A'Banat. Man those crits are murder.
When playing with echo, any PS 9 pilot, particularly soontir or wedge.
Its not the pilots themselves i fear, just certain builds that use them.
I mean, ive no problem with Han Solo the Pilot, but i know the build that Falcon is going to be carrying. I dont mind Wedge, but i know Biggs and (probably) Luke are going to be there. I dont mind Howlie, but i know shes always going to be bringing LOTS of friends etc.
Thing tend to make me angry rather than scared. That said, being outmanuvered by Echo and Whisper. I LOATHE Echo and Whisper.

But again, Echo and Whisper (and their abilities) arent the problem, its just that they have the Pilot Skill to make the most of the Phantom. Its the Phantoms ability thats the problem, not the pilots themselves.
True, true. You pay to use their abilities well. They're balanced, but lord they irritate me.
They dread when they see my Keyan
Jax and dark curse.
I tend to die to asteroids... can I answer asteroids?
If I am flying an interceptor, I loathe y-wings with ion turrets.
Whisper is tough and seems to always arc dodge me and get me from behind. Though when I played Whisper the other night with outmaneuver, it was quite nice to always be behind Wedge and eventually kill him.
Keyan with HLC and Opportunist is a tough nut to crack.
Fat Chewie
Just scared that I won't be able to kill him before my inveitably bad luck comes and bites me in the ass, or (sometimes) ever

Yeah, i dont mind Chewies ability, as it limits the damage done, but still allows damage. Its the combos he comes with that makes him impossible to hurt. You need to be able to do at least 2 points of damage in most cases before he even has to worry about you hurting him, but again, thats a problem with the Falcon, not Chewie.
Edited by SonikgavWes Jansen with VI and a stressbot. He always goes down in the end, but only after giving my Interceptors and Phantoms a hard time. My opponents tend to fear Soontir Fel.
Han Solo
what He said.
Hate fighting against - Whisper and Wes
Hate seeing on the table - Carnor Jax
Wedge. 'Nuff said.

You should answer "Myself" as your worst enemy.
Falcons and phantoms for me. It's not like i hate facing them, but i have a massive hatred toward both ships and i will cheer whenever i manage to kill them.

But that would indicate that hitting those fast moving asteroids is somehow my fault. Surely, you jest.
I have a few...
Imperials
Most feared: Soontir/Echo
(Most annoying: Dark Curse)
Rebels
Most feared: Wedge/Corran
(Most annoying: Biggs/Luke [with R2-D2+Shield Ugrade])
Fat Falcons (Han variant mainly) it's just such a tough nut to crack whilst it deals out significant punishment. Most other lists and pilots can be out played by most other lists and pilots. Fat Han however has opposing lists that simply have no chance against it.
(This is not a Fat Han hate quote, please don't start that again. This is merely answering who I fear seeing most and why
)
When I don't have shields... Rexler... no one pilots him in my neck of the woods except me (I just started to) and I stand half in awe and half in fear even as I control him myself! Just last time, I unleashed a salvo against Kyle, 3 hits went through, one got the shield, the other went for the hull and then they got flipped up... my stomach was churning just at the thought of being on the recieving end of that ![]()

I feel I have to go a little OT and bring up an anecdote. Mordheim - ever heard of it? No it's a games workshop fantasy RPg-skirmish game where you can pick up traits randomly - anyway in a particular scenario set in albion it was hailing, and my opponent lost 4 ghouls and a dreg to strength 2 hail. Well. if a hero character - in this case a dreg - is taken out of action they roll on a table. He hates anything of what took him out - literally having Hatred - inclement weather.
Asteroids have killed my ships on multiple occasions - and have also finished off kills for me, if X-wing ever does get RPG mechanics, maybe "Hatred - debris cloud" could be a possibility.
