So I'm trying to decide what to do with my last 4 points, and I've got all the system slots still open.

Echo

-Veteran Instincts

-Advanced Cloaking Device

-Intel Agent

Shadow Squadron Pilot

-Stygium Particle Accelerator

-Intel Agent

Shadow Squadron Pilot

-Stygium Particle Accelerator

-Intel Agent

So these are the three choices that I can see:

-Throw a Sensor Jammer on Echo to bump up her defense

-Give both Shadow Squadron Pilots a Fire Control System to bump their offense

-If I absolutely have to, do both above by downgrading them to Sigmas

I'd like to avoid using Sigmas, mostly because I enjoy flying the higher PS generics. Just kind of my squad's flavor, but I can admit defeat if I have to.

FCS, always

on whom is a good question, though

echo will probably stay alive more but she's an ideal target

the sigmas are cheaper but die more easily

Alright, and that's the one I was leaning towards. Echo always has a huge target on her, and due to her recloak she already has pretty substantial defense. Pulling some fire off her will make her more likely to make it to the end game, where she really shines for me.

Have you considered dropping Echo down to a third Shadow? I'm currently looking at running three Shadow Squadron Pilots with Advanced Sensors, Intelligence Agents and Stygiums.

My suggestion would be to take out Echo's Intel Agent and upgrade it to a Recon Specialist. That leaves 2 points to give echo an FCS.

Echo is currently my favorite pilot, as I'm quite the fan of shenanigans. I'd really like to keep her in my list, though a triple shadow list sounds like a ton of fun!

Interesting call to give her a Recon Spec. I've never flown her with that, but I've heard they pair very well. It'd also make her easily the most offensive ship in my squad, but the extra focus token would also make her very defensive. I like it, I'll give it a shot next time I get to play.
