Molaman14 0 Posted April 13, 2016 Check out this latest idea for a build I will be trying out this weekend... 100 POINTS... Tie Adv Proto - Inquisitor (29) PS 8 Hull Upgrade Tie V1 PTL Tie Defender - Cnl. Vessery (47) PS 10 Engine upgrade VI HLC Zeta Leader PS 7 Wired Zeta Ace will roll an extra die and become stressed immediately after attacking. Wired will allow me to reroll that die on an eyeball result. Same thing on the defense. HLC will make me want to stay in range three and arc dodge with the Defender. The inquisitor will also do his thing in range 3 with his extra attack dice. Let me know your thoughts... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Troxygen 3 Posted April 13, 2016 Inquisitor wants to keep at the farthest range band possible, as he gains no benefit from range 1 attack; frequently what I see people do is throw Proton Rockets on him to keep pressure up at all range bands (this is also the case with autothrusters but I'm not concerned about that.) So I'd probs switch out hull upgrade for the Rockets. Vessesry soaks up so many squad points, Id probs just switch him out for Firespray-31 pilot Krassis Trelix as he'll do pretty much the same thing but with 4 extra hull and a lower PS. (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, as it's good to have PS diversity in a squad.) I love Zeta Leader with wired Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gersun 544 Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) Just want to point out that Vessery is the PS6 pilot, Rexler Brath is the PS8. PS10 is cool and all, but to actually have a chance at using his ability I would opt for predator. Also an Engine Upgrade doesn't really help the defender keep its distance, as you will want to 1 bank and barrel roll to stay away. Predator keeps your offense up when you need to reposition, and focus every other turn for the chance to do a bunch of crits. Also, since the inquisitor wants to be at R3, wouldn't autothrusters be a better modification to take? Dropping EU on Brath and the Hull to AT on Inq also gives you enough points for a comm relay on Zeta, which is nice. Predator HLC Brath is worth his points over Krassis Trellix any day of the week.
