The Paragon is a quest dreadnought made by the U.N.E. It is known for it's extremely fast speed and high damage.

Description

The Paragon is a unique Dreadnought, it boasts the fastest speed in it's class, and very high firepower, although less than other Quest Dreadnoughts.

Appearance

The Paragon looks somewhat similar to the Galaxy, with it's long front end and four engines in the back. Overall, the aesthetic of the Paragon is similar to other U.N.E. ships, such as the Prototype X-1, the Venerator and the Judgement. It is made up of greys, blacks and steel blue, with some whites and silvers. It has a touch of neon blues and oranges. And like other U.N.E. ships, it features very little team colouration, which can be seen on the paragon as the other team colour on it can be found on the tips of its U.N.E. Heavy Missle Launchers.

Advantages

  • High DPS for a Dreadnought.
  • Good balance between Shield and Hull damage.
  • Very high speed, higher even than the Slipstream.
  • Custom drift of 100%, allowing for very effective drifting, something unheard of for any other Dreadnought

Disadvantages

  • Expensive, needing an upfront cost of 500,000 credits and lots of ores. Also require a special part that is only obtainable through doing enough damage to the Kneall Stronghold, which can often be hard to do. This also makes it a target to many players.
  • Lower DPS than other high-powered Dreadnoughts, such as the Obliterator and Kraken.
  • Low health for it's class, with less overall health than others such as the Leviathan.

Strategy

  • This ship will be a large target, so be wary of players attempting to dive this ship.
  • Use the DPS and extreme speed of this ship to get into a fight, deal damage, and escape before reinforcements arrive.

Version History

  • Introduced in version .77a19.
  • Received three health buffs in version .77a22. hull: 8000 > 9500. Shield and hull: 12500/9500 > 17000/7500. Shield and hull: 17000/7500 > 20000/7000.

Trivia

The first person to lose a Paragon was xcelseor, who lost it to a Kneall Decimator.
