Hey guys im currently playing an imperial line up and currently enjoying playing with a decimator and something else..
However I cannot decide between these 2,
Tie Interceptor
-Soontir Fel
- PTL
- Auto Thrusters
- Royal Guard Tie
- Stealth Device
total 35 pts
OR
Tie Phanton
- Echo
- VI
- FCS
- Advance Cloaking Device
total 37 pts
Ofcourse with the phantom build I lose something out of my decimator but im not too fussed.
Currently both builds
I am 4w 0L each so 8w 0L so far.
IMHO, these are my thoughts
Soontir Fel adv
- High manoeuvrability
- PTL is good for both offensive and defensive
- Range 3 = 5 Dodge dice unless through an asteroid which brings it to 6 dodge dice which on its own is awesome.
- Pilot skill 9
Soontir Fel disadvantage
- No shield, takes crits head on
- Weak against Vader
Echo adv
- High manoeuvrability
- adv cloaking device gives 4 dodge dice
- De cloaking provides multiple opportunity to get behind targets and arc dodge
- with VI 8 pilot skill
- Has shield to defend against single or double crits hits
Echo disadvantage
- can sometimes be predictable to where you are going to de-cloak and manoeuvre
- Vulnerable against pilot skill 9+
- due to expensive phantom, less points to spend on Decimator (not a ship weakness just my opinion)
Which partner would you choose and why?
