Lucifer is a Super Capital ship that is part of the Halloween Event 2019.

Description

The Lucifer was the Halloween Event 2019 Super Capital Ship that has extremely accurate Turrets and powerful Spinal weaponry.

This Super Capital ship excels at being an all-rounder Super Capital Ship, with balanced Hull and Shield for tanking, accurate and powerful Turrets for defending against both Small and Capital Ships, and having long range weaponry for Sieging.

Appearance

The Lucifer is a long, massive Super Capital Ship that has an extremely large profile, and has many spikes, windows and fins jutting out from it, making it resemble a spiky sea cucumber. It has 3 extremely large Spinal barrels in it's front with particles emitting from it, just like the particle emitters on it's sides. It also has 3 extremely large engines in it's back, though these emit no trails.

The Lucifer shares the same Interior as the Azreal and Abaddon, with a black, foggy hallway, being the only difference is the color. At the front, there is a purple glowing orb with electricity coming out of it, and in front of it there is purple text that says

"PALADIN OMEN ONLINE".

Note that it's ambiance is extremely faint and may need to max your volume in order to hear it.

Advantages

  • Huge, balanced health pool along with great damage resistance due to being a Super Capital.
  • Turn speed is very high for a ship of its size, surpassing some Battleships.
  • Powerful, extremely accurate and long range Turrets.
  • Spinals output high damage.
  • Good cargo hold.
  • Huge DPS of 520+.
  • Massive explosion radius of 1500, the highest in the game (along with both prototypes and Kodiak).
  • Unlike most other Super Capitals, it can easily defend itself against small ships with the accurate weapons.

Disadvantages

  • Large blindspots behind and under the ship.
  • Struggles to fire all turrets at once, unless pointing directly or above at its target.
  • Ridiculously expensive, mainly due to the Class A Permit, which in total can cost over 10 million credits.
  • Loses more than half of its DPS if you can’t hit the spinals.
  • Lucifer's Spinals have poor arcs and they can be difficult to get used to.
  • Its DPS is more oriented around shields, causing rather low Hull damage output for its price.
  • It's extremely powerful nuke will be a threat to your own fleet/team when your ship is destroyed.
  • A large target due to being a Limited Super Capital Ship, as well as its exorbitant cost.

Strategy

  • It is always never a good idea to use this ship alone in PvP. If you do so, travel with a heavy escort that you can trust as you will always be a massive target.
  • Always be alert of your surroundings when using this ship, like constantly checking the minimap, and the player list to see if there are any familiar players in it.
  • If Sieging with it, be sure to not only be a part of a fleet but also make use of the range of the turrets and spinals.
  • Use its maneuverability to get into a ship's blindspot and shred them with its insane damage output.
  • Never underestimate your health, a swarm of high power ships such as Nightmares can exploit your blindspots and destroy you if you aren't careful.
  • If a ship is hiding in one of your blind spots, warp a short distance and use your fast turn speed then shred them when you have a line of sight.
  • One of the few weaknesses of this ship is groups. A few high power ships of any kind may overwhelm you if you have no support, so always try to fly in at least a small fleet.
  • Do not attempt to solo siege a faction with stronger players, they can easily spawn their powerful ships to destroy you, similar to a Log-off Trap.
  • To repeat. Be extremely cautious and watch for any possibility of danger, the Lucifer is very powerful but extremely expensive to lose.
  • If you are being sieged, even spawning this can scare off most inexperienced attackers, and the rest may leave due to the loss of support and extremely high power of this ship, but this is risky as you may be targeted immediately.
  • If you think your ship will be destroyed, Warp your ship away as far as possible from your own fleet or Starbase as the nuke has a whopping radius of 15000 studs, and if possible, you can warp to the enemies' fleet and get close to more expensive enemy ships or Starbase to bring the nuke there instead.
  • It is highly recommended to record this ship every time you use it in case you lose it for unfair reasons due to the price.

Trivia

  • Excluding Permits like the Class A Permit, the Lucifer is the most expensive ship in Material costs, totalling at 4.5 Million, beating both Prototypes. Though Waspinator dethrones it at being the most expensive ship if you were to pay 7 Million creidts at the Waspinator's quest The Council.
  • Used to be made with the Lucifer Core, which was obtained in the quest Spooky.
  • The first person to lose one was xps_15 to LegitWesternSpy's Prototype X-2.
  • The Lucifer, along with some other Halloween 2019 ships, is part of a select few ships in the game that have ambient sounds.

    • [TNCOC] Confinium Today at 1:47 PM {@everyone If you got stuck in the ceiling of the Lucifer and have a recording of it leading to your ships destruction, it is 100% refundable and you should submit it to #refund_request. Do not rely on the Wiki to tell you what is or isn't refundable.}
    • It is also further recommended to always record when driving expensive event ships, in order to corroborate evidence if a refund is necessary. Recording can be done directly through the ROBLOX player or other external programs.
  • During the 2019 Halloween event, the Lucifer costed 2 million credits, but if you were to use the cost command in-game now, its material cost would be around 1.2 million credits.
  • Its namesake, Lucifer, has significance in religion and mythology.
  • One of the best ships for either terrifying newer players or attracting pirates.
  • Despite being one of the largest ships in the game, the playable Lucifer is extremely small compared to the Lore accurate Lucifer.
