Arena Commander Ship Loadouts

[Maciek]

I've been experimenting with lost of different loadouts and weapons placement on the 300i (and a little less on the hornet) and as expected most of the combinations either don't work or are highly ineffective.

For now the best results I've been able to achieve using 3x Omnisky VI + 4x Marksman rocket.

As we don't have a "loadout" topic yet you might as well want to put your findings here

Happy hunting.

Personally im using stock, and it works just fine.

I don't even have enough ships to tinker with different kinds of loadouts...

I am running with default one for 300i. It works pretty good for now.

Yup, it's not bad but after playing for couple of days with 300i I've tried the hornet. I was surprised how much easier it was to progress further with it. The shield is much more capable and I've managed to put 4 lasers, 2 guns and 8 rockets. I would never be possible in 300i. I've gone to wave 12 in the first run where on the 300i I usually dies around wave 8-10.

Let's see if that balance changes with further updates.

The hornet atm is bugged you may not notice it but when u fire your laser/use afterburner your shields drain a good amount.

I just want to fly my avenger

Have you tried the primary guns on the 300i? Freaking sniper rifle. One shot kill if you get them dead center. I loved the Hornet's gatlings until I tried that 300i cannon...

Yea that is pretty same as guys on chat said. I did not have enough time to play due to work and uni last week, but I have pulled around 13th wave multiple times with no ease and only dying because I would suicide in most retarded way possible. Tho it has required to have some tight turns and dodges of missiles on few occasions. I did not have chance to try the hornet, but as I have gathered some info about it, it seems it is much more heavy while 300i is just plain, glass cannon. I personally like the ideology but I guess some balance changes are coming up.

Well you cant put 4 omskis....fired one shot and the ballistics and one of the omskis were overloaded

oops

Did it kill in one shot? If yes then maybe it's an idea that can be played with.

[xxrod17xx]

maciek u shoot one time, and you can not shoot again at all

[Maciek]

oh.. ok. So it doesn't make any sense in that case.

[Maciek]

So I've tried 3 Omskys + Rockets and got to wave 13 on the first attempt. 3 lasers don't overload the system while they are enough to kill in one good shot. It's a very nice "snipe" setup that I'll continue tempering with.

[thedomsaww]

are those the 3 or 4 series?

Omnisky VI are size 2 as far as I remember,

[coder-guy22296]

bulldog and m3a                                          (both found on ships and shooting range from my hanger that i did not pay for, so they will prob go away eventually)

on sides and neutron cannon on the front

[Semphis Rythorn]

I have 2 broadswords the big ones and they are working now (though unlimited ammo)

I also use the Gatling Cannons on the Trainer Hornet
