- Spinal DPS of 102 can lead to a monstrous DPS of 1160 when all fighters are used.
- Like with most fighters, small size.

- Just 2-3 can deal more damage than most Dreadnoughts
Disadvantages
- Somewhat slow for a fighter, still faster than the Nixesion though.
- Can be shot down easily by Light Turrets.
- No Turrets.
Strategy
- Group together with your other Nyxesions, as all 12 in a swarm can bring as much destruction as a Prototype ship.
- Focus on swarming and destroying AA ships like the Ampharos or Hyron first, as they will shred you if left alone.
- Use the ship's high maneuverability to get into the blind spots of larger ships and deal heavy spinal damage.
Version History
- Added to the game on version .73a3 along with the carrier that contains these ships.
- Name changed from Retro Nixesion to Nyxesion in version .75a1.
- Cannon and Phaser intervals changed from 0.15 --> 0.20 in an unknown version
