Description

The Elanis is a powerful, Battleship-like fighter that is spawned on the Hevnetier. It is a uniquely-designed fighter which integrates into the front of the carrier it spawns on.

Interior

The interior of the Elanis is entered through a teleporter at the back, and it is nothing more than a small box with a neon screen containing the pilot's seat.

Advantages

  • Very high health for a Fighter-class ship.
  • Fires all spinals at the same time.
  • Very powerful for a fighter, has stats akin to a battleship and more DPS than most battleships
  • Flat size might make it a challenge to hit with heavier weapons.
  • Extremely high shield damage.
  • Much faster than most other ships of its size.
  • Good turret placement.
  • Can provide as much support as most Battleships.
  • Insane amount of Turrets for a fighter, with a whopping 8.

Disadvantages

  • Low hull damage.
  • Only one spawns on the Hevnetier.
  • Large, and has no damage resistance.
  • No warp drive.

Strategy

  • Get a skilled player inside the Elanis, as AI Fighters shoot spinals inconsistently and turn their backs sometimes, losing half of it's firepower.
  • As this is a fighter feel free to do suicide runs.
  • Use your turrets while recalled without the problem of needing to be recalled in order for the Hevnetier to warp.

Version History

  • Introduced in version .69a2.
  • Buffed in .75a3(Please list what was changed about the ship).
  • Buffed again in .75a10. 115 to 200 Speed, 0.3 to 0.5 Turn speed, 35 to 50 Acceleration. Gains 2 more Small Phasers and 5 Small Cannons replaced with 5 Small Phasers.

Trivia

  • The Elanis is unique in the sense that it is the only Fighter that is part of its respective carrier's main structure. In this instance, the Elanis makes up the front of the Hevnetier.
  • One of the strongest fighters in the game, tied with the A - Bionicle, which is also a Battleship-like fighter and also one of the only 2 Battleship-like fighters in the game.
  • A Battlecruiser variant called the Mega Elanis was released in the April Fools 2022 event. The ship was redbox due to it being free and being incredibly overpowered for it's class.
