At What PS Do You Choose Deadeye Over VI?

By Boba Rick, in X-Wing

Tough decision! VI on Sol Sixxa or Deadeye?

depends on bombs

drop-on-reveal = maximum possible ps

ACTION = lower ps prefered (overlap before enemy activates)

11. The answer to the actual topic title.

It’s meta-dependent. But generally speaking I’d say PS 6 and under go deadeye, 7 or above go VI.

Unless you have some other reason to do otherwise (like @ficklegreendice mentioned).

note, my answer was given because the pilot in question (Sol Sixxa) is built completely around dropping bombs due to her pilot ability

depending on which bombs you use, you're going to want different PS scores

depending on which PS score you want, you pick either DEADEYE or VI

Bomblet Generator, Harpoons, EM, Chips, no crew.

Running him with 2 Kihraxz with Harpoons.

Thanks!

might as well use Havoc with "genius" (even with FAQ, you can bomblett genius once without consequence thanks to Extra Munitions. Use the side-ways bomb ability and barrel-roll will take you out of range 1) and collision detector

it's all free

Thanks, so VI it is.

Do you think the PS wars will go down a notch now?

The ps wars will never give away so long as turrets, arcdodgers and the highest-ps-pilot-is-the-best-pilot-of-the-ship exist

But ps 8 gets you above dash and Miranda, so it is SUPER relevant

I'm running TBC with this Sol Sixxa.... AND Deadeye Justero! If Harpoon condition goes off at Sol's PS 8 then Justero effectively gets to fire at PS 8.

Bombs too. Oh my gosh Justero can shoot before everyone does if a bomb hit someone.
