The Onslaught is a Limited Battleship that is a reconstruction of a Punisher from salvaged parts. Template:Ship Infobox Template
Description
The Onslaught is a battleship that can be bought for 200k Credits from Rev on top of the Portal on the Kneall Portal Base.
Appearance
The ship is a bright yellow and white playable version of the Alien Punisher. There is no interior. There is only a seat below the big bulb.
Advantages
- Large Cargo Hold for a battleship.
- Custom rapid firing and long-range laser turrets.
- High speed and maneuverability for a battleship.
- Small frontal and rear profile means that any inaccurate armament will have a difficult time hitting the ship, as long as it is pointed towards or away from the attacker.
- Decently balanced health pool of 9,000 HP.
- Fast for it's class.
Disadvantages
- Limited classification means this ship will be targeted often by other players or pirates seeking to destroy high-value ships.
- Requires good spinal aim to deal effective Hull damage, but any situation where a target can evade the fire from the turrets also leads to poor Shield damage.
- Costs 200,000 credits, which is expensive (for a battleship); but not as expensive as many other limited battleships or advanced battleships.
- Huge blind spot under the ship.
- Relatively weak damage output for a limited battleship, being lower than some normal battleships.
Strategy
- You should treat the ship as a trophy, because outside of the speed, profile, and long range on the rapid-fire turrets; the ship in most situations is not worth risking over using a marginally less effective normal battleship. However, there are situations where this ship is useful (as seen below).
- Use the long range of the turrets to support a fleet in bring down the Shields of a Starbase during a siege to preserve your health, then move in closer and use both your turrets and cannons to pummel the base once the shields are down.
- Chase down and destroy crippled dreadnoughts, that in most cases lack the accurate armament necessary to fend you off.
