*Due to most of its health being [[Shields|Shield-based]], this ship struggles to tank Starbases from below, where a Starbase's turrets have the least lines of sight but also where the Starbase's heavy laser armament is focused. This makes the '''Judgement''' worse for using as a tank in sieges than almost any other Dreadnought, most of which have high Hull health or a good balance between Hull and Shield health. | *Due to most of its health being [[Shields|Shield-based]], this ship struggles to tank Starbases from below, where a Starbase's turrets have the least lines of sight but also where the Starbase's heavy laser armament is focused.

*All of the turrets are mainly for sieging, so they have low accuracy and long reload times. This makes it difficult to shoot anything that’s small or fast. | |||
==Strategy== | |||
*This ship can tank most other [[:Category:Capital Ship|Capital Ships]] without good shield breaking weapons, so make sure to know which are shield breakers before choosing to attack. | |||
*Punishers stand no chance against your lasers and high health, kill all the aliens and kill the Punisher afterward.

*If your other teammates happen to have a '''Judgement''', always try to use it in a group of at least two or more of the same ship.

*If you're going to use this ship in PvP, be wary of other [[:Category:Capital Ship|Capital Ships]] (more specifically, Dreadnoughts) that far exceed your damage output; as they can often wither down your health faster than you can force them to retreat with your alpha damage. If you happen to be caught in such a situation, warp out of range of the ship but keep your weaponry in range at first. Once they warp to you, volley them again and warp away; continue this until you force the threat to retreat and if it is crippled, chase after it(unless there is a fleet supporting it). | *If you're going to use this ship in PvP, be wary of other [[:Category:Capital Ship|Capital Ships]] (more specifically, Dreadnoughts) that far exceed your damage output; as they can often wither down your health faster than you can force them to retreat with your alpha damage.

*If you see a crippled capital ship attempting to retreat to its base, chase it down and destroy it with your heavy-hitting turret armament. Your [[Shields]] should be able to hold up against any defending ships and the [[Starbase]] for long enough for you to safely escape without being hulled. However, do not take the risk of warping into a very powerful defense fleet alone; and only do so with support. | *If you see a crippled capital ship attempting to retreat to its base, chase it down and destroy it with your heavy-hitting turret armament.
