New Kihraxz Builds

By rabid1903, in X-Wing

Crack glitter tracers vectored thrusters chips failsafe black sun ace x 4

Crack hotshot tracers failsafe chips black sun ace x 4

For starters

Black Sun Ace x 2
Attanni, BMST, Pulse Ray Shield, Guidance Chips,
Ion Pulse Missiles, Munitions Failsafe

Black Sun Ace x 2
Attanni, BMST, Pulse Ray Shield, Guidance Chips,
Tracers, Munitions Failsafe

What about TBC with mindlink, tracers (just cuz), cloaking, PRS, VT, and stygium? It's the same points (32) as the typical Fenn w/ mindlink, title, and AT. Sure Fenn is probably better, but this build isn't trying to be Fenn. If you go 4 straight with TBC, he could potentially do the equivalent of a speed-4 barrel roll and effectively has the fang title with that evade.

Lol expose..
I'd rather use a concussion missile with Scav crane, chips and muni failsafe.

Attanni Mindlink (0)
Concussion Missiles (3)
Scavenger Crane (1)
Munitions Failsafe (0)
Pulsed Ray Shield (1)

Who woulda thunk it, Munitions failsafe is coming back to the meta

I hardly ever do mindlink lists, even less than the moment because I think it will get nerfed, but I liked this combo. Although I have feelingthat future Kihraxz will be better by it self, only Kihraxz fighters.

Viktor Hel (25)

  • Expert handling (1)
  • Vaksai (0)
  • XX-23 S-Thread Tracers (0)
  • Experimental Interface (2)

Graz Hunter (25)

  • Shield upgrade (3)
  • Stealth Device (2)

This was what I was thinking, Kihraxz seems to be better between them selfs now!

The "Hey, this is mindlink at 23pts", and the "You can shoot sideways while coasting" builds amuse me most, but Victor Hel becomes a suprisingly potent control tool too:

Black Sun Ace (23)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
XX-23 S-Thread Tracers (1)
Black Market Slicer Tools (1)
Guidance Chips (0)
Munitions Failsafe (1)
Vaksai (0)

Otherwise known as the "Hey, this is mindlinked 3 attack at 23 points". Compared to a Concord Veteran, it sacrifices mobility and agility for squad-buffs and anti-stress tech that proves handy on the joust and potentially helps make up for its lack of repositioning.

Black Sun Ace (25)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
XX-23 S-Thread Tracers (1)
"Hot Shot" Blaster (3)
Guidance Chips (0)
Munitions Failsafe (1)
Vaksai (0)

This one just amuses me for plinking away with the Hot Shot blaster until it actually, you know, hits something. (remember the Guidance Chips don't count). For a single extra point, this thing can regenerate a shield while coasting-and-plinking, and I probably like that even better, but you can't take it as a quartet.

Viktor Hel (25)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
XX-23 S-Thread Tracers (1)
Black Market Slicer Tools (1)
Guidance Chips (0)
Munitions Failsafe (1)
Vaksai (0)

Victor Hel is actually quite a delightful control weapon: At range 3, or behind a rock, he gives you stress. Next turn, he flies past, slices you, and still gets a Focus for the normal shooting phase to boot. Combine with the Tracers for jousting-buffs to your friendly craft, just in case it's useful, and... not a bad setup, all told.

Actually, can't believe I missed this one:

Black Sun Ace (25)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
XX-23 S-Thread Tracers (1)
Feedback Array (2)
Guidance Chips (0)
Pulsed Ray Shield (2)
Vaksai (0)

Infinite use bugzappers. ? They might be almost twice the price of the pirates, but you're getting mindlink, 3 attack and regen for your trouble... And in the right squad, that might just be worth it.

Don't forget munitions failsafe!

...I never expected to post that.

Oh man, I love that bug zapper one. It's not to be trifled with either.

yah I'm definitely going to be trying this. Too bad I need 3 copies of the **** expansion to get 5 titles...

Almost halfway there collecting the cards, luckily there's Vassal in the meantime!

Ha, yes. Not a huge deal on this particular build, but at the price it's hard to beat... :P
