The IceFyre is a Nighthawk-esque Fighter unique to the Blizzard.

Description

The IceFyre is a Fighter found inside the Blizzard with an emphasis on shieldbreaking.

Appearance

The Icefyre has a flat profile with the appearance similar to that of a marine creature,

Advantages

  • Extremely high shield DPS of 167.
  • Extremely fast and agile for a fighter with a top speed of 280 and a turn speed of 0.82.
  • Pairs well with the Blizzard's high hull damage as it makes up for the IceFyre's low hull damage.

Disadvantages

  • It only has Phasers, making it very ineffective against Hull.
  • * Can be easily destroyed by AA Ships.

Strategy

  • This Fighter is best used in a swarm. Attack the enemy with high speed and with its high shield damage, a swarm will bring enemy ships to Hull quickly.
  • Utilize drifting and hit-and-run tactic to survive as long as possible while dealing the maximum amount of damage.
  • Focus on shield tanks like the Judgement or Aegis first, as the IceFyre focuses on shredding shields.
  • Use the ship's high maneuverability to get into the blind spots of larger ships and deal heavy spinal damage.

Version History

  • 6 Small Phasers upsized to 6 Medium Phasers in an unknown version (only revealed in-game).
  • Acceleration reduced from 70 to 50 in an unknown version (only revealed in-game).
  • Remodeled in version .75a37.
