Overclocked R4

By pcgamerpirate, in X-Wing

Ooh, that's good enough I won't need a second Most Wated for U-Boat R4s.

This combos really well with Attani Mindlink.

Bwah waaaahhhh....

True, stress is bad.

I'll find a way to make it work!

Using this instead of R4 Agromech, now I can run 3 JM5k proton torp boot, and still 1 point left for Boba crew.

As long as you're using ships with reasonably red-free dials, it means an infinite supply of focus for all ships.

Add K4 in there and you have target locks for free, which means F+TL+third action in many cases since you're gated to 1 stress/ship with Mindlink.

I don't hate the ability, I just don't know what ship it works with. A Y-Wing?

Your options for clearing the stress without the unhinged astromech are pretty limited.

JumpMaster? Again, this guy wants to be on the same boat as Unhinged, but can't be.

I guess on the JumpMaster you can pair this guy up with K4 crew and then swing left with your green maneuvers but....really telegraphs your moves.

TLTs with unlimited focus. I think I see sky pieces around.

You don't always need to green every turn anyway.

Also Drea likes it.

I've run the jumpmaster in a bunch of games without unhinged, and have almost never missed it. The other options are just too good.

No she doesn't. You still lose your focus in the end phase, so you get 1 turn of extra focus before you never take another action due to stress.

Eh, you're already getting one focus turned into a crit, I think I'd rather have the rerolls.

Mathwingers! We need ya.

Thought of course if you run all Agros then you can only fit in one Proton Torp guy. But still.

It might be a safer choice for U-boats if they come across a higher PS alpha strike. You can use focus defensively without giving up your shot, and hopefully keep you alive to shoot to begin with.

Somebody hand me the duct tape. I'm hooking this thing up to 4-L0M; legality be damned.

True, the target lock is more effective, with 3.89 expected hits, vs 3.68 with the focus. But that costs 34 pts, so cannot fly 3 of them.

TLTs with unlimited focus. I think I see sky pieces around.

It's like the sky was our hopes and dreams for peace on earth and happiness forever then ffg shattered the sky into razor sharp shards to shred our skin and give us blood poisoning so we could die slowly on our bed of broken dreams.

But not.

Well, for a round. It's like a Recon Specialist that costs a stress to activate. You get all the focus you can use for that one turn, but what are you going to do with a Y-wing's greens on the following round?

We really need more scum ships with agromech slots, the greens on the y-wing cannot support these kinds of shenanigans.

It's a fairly cruel upgrade to make, in a world where 1 of the 2 ships that can equip it has the worst access to green maneuvers in the game.

I like the effect, but unless they are planning on letting ships like the Scyk, StarViper, or Kirhaxz take it, I am not seeing a lot of appeal. Maybe double focusing for TLTs? I guess?

I'm gonna need a generic scum ship with evade, and either boost or barrel roll on the action bar. Then I need it to have an EPT slot, a salvaged astromech slot, and a dial with white 3-hard maneuvers. Then we'll make our own interceptors, dangit.

The Y-wings better hope they kill everything the turn they use it, because when they all perform the straight-1 or straight-2 to clear the stress they're going to find their bubbles are a very busy place all of a sudden.

So your talking about uglies.
