Description
The Annihilator is a long Carrier that is based off the Devastator, but is significantly smaller and has nerfed stats than the ship it is derived from. It carriers 4 Alien themed A - Bruiser fighters and 1 Unique battleship fighter, the A - Bionicle.
Appearance
The Annihilator is a long, slender carrier that has an almost identical appearance to the Devastator. It is one of the largest alien ships in the game, rivalling the size of the Prototype X-2. There are 2 teleporters, one leading to the interior and bridge of the ship, one leads to the fighter bay.
The Fighter Bay is a long hangar housing 4 A - Bruiser fighters, and at the end of the bay lies the teleporter to the A - Bionicle, which lies under the ship.
The Interior is identical to the interior of the Obliterator, description of the interior is identical to that of the mentioned ship.
Advantages
- Has a Fighter comparable to a battleship.
- Good support ship for fleet and sieges.
- High Hull damage.
- The fighters possess incredible combined firepower if used in a swarm, and even more so if the carrier itself is supporting it.
- Has more turret firepower than most non limited Dreadnoughts.
- High total health of 24000.
Disadvantages
- The Carrier itself lacks Spinal firepower.
- Rather low Shield damage compared to Hull damage.
- Sluggish turn speed.
- Struggles to fire all turrets at once, unless pointing directly at its target.
- Limited carrier. Making you a large target.
- The second most expensive material cost in the game, totaling at 1.9 Million, only behind Lucifer
Strategy
- Do not use this ship alone. If you do so, travel with a heavy escort that you can trust.
- NEVER use this ship for tanking damage. The expense of it alone makes it a massive target.
- It can be used as a support Carrier in sieges by carrying Fighters to distract enemy Starbases, as well as providing great support from its Battleship-like fighter.
- Useful in fleets, as it provides a powerful and disposable Fighter.
- Release fighters, get a pilot in the A - Bionicle then then warp back.
- When fighting with the Annihilator, try and stay pointed to your opponent so all your turrets have a line of sight.
- People might underestimate this ship due to its Carrier icon on the minimap. However, this ship's strength is actually more akin to a Super Capital.
