Description
The Nautilus is an unexpected and powerful event ship added on April 5th, 2020. It is armed with its own unique Turrets called Enclaves, which float above and below their mounts on the ship.
Note: The model of the Nautilus is currently broken, but may receive a fix in the near future
Interior
The Interior starts with a cylinder shaped teleporter, which leads into a small room. The small room contains a seat and a circular computer and screen in front, with similar coloring to the outside.
Advantages
- Balanced DPS, a combination of cannon Spinals and high damage Turrets.
- Has high total health compared to other Battleships.
- Great mobility for a Battleship.
- Easily shreds any Battleship (though it has significant difficulty against Advanced battleships like the Helios or Imperator) and can take on some Dreadnoughts if the pilot is skilled enough.
Disadvantages
- Extremely expensive for a Battleship, costing 500,000+ credits if every material is bought from the Mega Base. This is especially unreasonable considering most Dreadnoughts can outperform it with less than half the price.
- High warehouse level for a Battleship (most players experienced enough to afford this ship will already have enough space however).
- Current model is broken (however this doesn’t change the performance much, it just doesn’t look as nice).
- Requires good spinal aim for effective hull damage.
- The quest to obtain its blueprint is a one-time deal, making it limited.
Strategy
- Be careful when using this ship, especially during war, as it costs more than most Dreadnoughts.
- Use the turrets to shred the shield of an opponent, and then focus on spinals once the target is hulled.
- Only use it when you do not have Battleship loyalty or need a more maneuverable ship, since most Dreadnoughts and even high DPS Battleships like the Panther can be more effective.
- Use your cannons to easily finish off targets or steal kills.
