The Apogee is very small, especially for its class. It has a similar style to the [[Deity]], [[Theseus]], and [[Odyssey]], featuring similar colors, engines, and details. Additionally it is almost completely the same on both the top and bottom, just like the other [[Halloween Event 2023]] ships. It has three missile launchers mounted on each side, with its turrets on the top and bottom. | |||
==Advantages== | |||
* Small and fast, making it hard to hit at range. | |||
* High speed and good spinal DPS, making it effective at drifting. | |||
* Homing missiles deal high damage and have a great range of 8 thousand studs. | |||
* Each turret has very good LoS. | |||
* Homing missiles make it extremely good at hunting down small ships. | |||
==Disadvantages== | |||
* Limited and will most likely never return as a buyable ship. | |||
* Rebuild price is around 100k, far more than other battlecruisers or even battleships. | |||
* This ship is a target because of its effectiveness in fleets, availability, and cost. | |||
* Turrets, while having good LoS, do very little damage. | |||
==Strategy== | ==Strategy== | ||
* Always watch your back, you will be a target. | |||
* Don't get too close to anything that could seriously damage you; just snip with your missiles. | |||
* Support fleets by using missiles to hunt down frigates, destroyers, and small fighters. | |||
