Whisper (buzzsaw) 44

VI, FCS, Gunner, ACD

Stele 32

VI, Prockets title and ATC

Colzet 23

Title Acc Correcter

VI on stele because at my FLGS there was a list last tournament with Brobots with VI, so to better survive the Brobost Positioning it would help to move after them, also added on prockets to add a bit more umph against the big ships that i would come across. I understand that i cannot use ATC on the prockets, but i would be able to use the TL from previous and allow me to roll as many crits as possible (hilariously burning through the damage deck if more than 3 crits)

or would it make sense to forgo the VI on stele for Calculation allowing for different Procket Shinanigans?

Buzzsaw Whisper is a known quantity. Practice with it, and you'll do well.

Stele and Colet are new.

Both have late-game abilities, and depend rather fiercely on the Critical Vulnerabilities of your opponents (i.e., the percentage of the Damage Deck that is actually crippling to their ship.)

Colzet's ability tempts you to take Target Locks... an otherwise useless action unless you're at R1.

Still, the action persists, so if he's not going to be attacked in a round, it's worth taking.... if you can know that at PS 3.

Prockets on Stele is a mistake.

The damage is nice, but its an early-mid game upgrade, where you could give him a survival bonus for the same cost that could let him be the end-game monster he was meant to be.

in a perfect world i'd have my Punisher (or K wing if youre a rebel scum.), so i can put Adv Homing on Stele, and hilarity sponge my enemy in to submission with stele and Colzet, but those will not be out until 28th (says my source) and my tournament is this weekend.

Switch out Stele for Vader with LW and it comes in at 99...although you dont have EU on vader

i mean, Vader is a superior pilot, but my plan is for once the Adv Homing is released to make my target inept by spamming blinded pilots on them with Colzet, or killing them outright with Direct hit or Console Fires repeating. and to help insure that Stele is there to show me the way.
