''This page is about the [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]]. If you're looking for the Starbase Boss, see [[Blizzard (Base)]].'' | |||
The | The '''''Blizzard''''' is a powerful [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] that was introduced in the [[Christmas Event 2017]], but was re-introduced in the [[Christmas Event 2022|<span style="color:#aef2fe;text-shadow: 1px 1px 10px #aef2fe;">Christmas Event 2022</span>]]. | ||
==Description== | |||
The Blizzard is an extremely large [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]] that carries 4 Unique [[IceFyre]] Fighters. | |||
The Blizzard | This Ship excels at being a flagship in a fleet due to it's health, firepower, and speed, and the diversity of [[Turrets]] it has, having extremely high turret firepower for a [[:Category:Carrier|Carrier]]. | ||
==Appearance== | |||
The Blizzard is one of the largest and widest ships in the game, even bigger than some [[:Category:Super Capital Ship|Super Capital Ships.]] and dwarfing every other [[:Category:Carrier|Carriers]] in size. | |||
The Ship has a futuristic, snow theme with many, many complex detailings around it. On its back has a large amount of engines, along with 2 extremely large fins around its side, supporting the ship. On the sides can be seen the 2 Hangars with each carrying 2 [[IceFyre]] fighters. On the front has its signature yellow ball, which was a reference to its previous model. | |||
Its interior sports a large room with many icy decorations like icicles on its ceiling. There are 3 Seats, with the middle being the pilot seat. | |||
== Advantages == | ==Advantages== | ||
* | *Large health pool. | ||
* | *Despite it's size, it is fast with a top speed of {{#cargo_query:tables=ShipData|fields=ShipData.top_speed|where=ShipData._pageName = 'Blizzard'}} | ||
* | *Has very high firepower for a carrier, allowing it to destroy other large [[:Category:Capital Ship|Capital Ships]] even without the assistance of its fighters. | ||
* | *Can support itself very well even without its Fighters. | ||
* | *Has long range turrets with a range of up to 6800. | ||
* | *Fighters can shred shields from their spinals. | ||
== Disadvantages == | *Great for supporting fleets with its high health and large firepower. | ||
* | ==Disadvantages== | ||
* | *Large [[Galaxy Terminology|Blindspots]] underneath and on the back of the ship. | ||
* | *Extremely Large, making it very easy to hit with spinals and any turrets. | ||
*Struggles to fire all turrets at once, unless pointing directly at its target. | |||
*Limited carrier, making you a large target. | |||
* Limited | ==Strategy== | ||
== Strategy == | *Do not use this ship alone. If you do so, travel with a heavy escort that you can trust. | ||
* | *When fighting with the Blizzard, try and stay pointed to your opponent so all your turrets have a line of sight. | ||
* | *If you have to fight, stay below and pointed at the enemy so majority of your turrets can fire, and take down [[Galaxy Slang|AA]] Ships with your turret firepower like the [[Ampharos]] and [[Hyron]] which can shred your [[IceFyre|Fighters]]. | ||
* | *Beware of swarms of small [[Ships]] that can overwhelm the Blizzard. | ||
