Pirating: Difference between revisions

== Pirating ==

'''''Pirating''''' is the act of destroying a ship in hopes of looting it for money. Any ship with a decent armament of guns and speed can be a pirating ship, but [[:Category:Cruiser|Cruisers]] and some [[:Category:Battlecruiser|Battlecruisers]] are typically the ships of choice for most '''Pirates'''. Read [[Ship Loss#Tips|Avoiding Ship Loss]] to make sure you don't lose a ship to a pirate.

== Summary ==

When a player is '''Pirating''', they will usually be in a faction that has declared war on the majority of factions in the game. '''Pirates''' usually choose agile, quick and powerful ships to '''Pirate''' since most players will run when attacked, making '''Pirating''' reliant on ambushing and quickly subduing the target.

== List of Recommended Pirate Ships ==

* [[Nightmare]]: An incredibly agile ship that packs a massive punch. It also contains a cargo hold of 250, allowing for quick looting when needed.

<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed content" id="mw-customcollapsible-cruiserclass">

* [[Gideon]]: Powerful, the [[Gideon]] can dish out a lot of damage and can take ships at their base with ease. Lots of people who '''Pirate''' use multiple [[Gideon]]s at a time sometimes between 3-6 or more to create a force able to take down [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreads]] with ease and kill everything in sight.

*[[Sixfold]]: Fast and powerful. The [[Sixfold]] can dish out a ridiculously large amount of firepower quickly, then catch up to the target and finish the job.

*[[Aura]]: Extremely high DPS and great maneuverability.

*[[Nidhogg]]: Extremely high DPS and great maneuverability.

*[[Vansnova]]: The [[Vansnova]], like the [[Razor Wing]], relies on its [[Spinals]] to attack ships. However, the [[Vansnova]] can dish out a lot of damage without having to constantly aim, as all barrels of the [[Vansnova]]'s [[Spinals]] fire at the same time; The [[Razor Wing]] fires one at a time. The [[Vansnova]]'s [[Spinals]] are enough to obliterate [[:Category:Destroyer|Destroyers]] with one shot of both the [[Spinals|Phasers]] and the [[Spinals|Cannons]]!

*[[Aeaphiel]]: The Aeaphiel became extremely popular in pirating after the buff because now it deals over 300 DPS along with being fast and having good turn speed.

*[https://roblox-galaxy-official.fandom.com/wiki/Warden Warden]: The [[Warden]] is a fast and cheap [https://roblox-galaxy-official.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Battleship Battleship] With relatively high health and small size, it excels at destroying [https://roblox-galaxy-official.fandom.com/wiki/Shields shields] and [https://roblox-galaxy-official.fandom.com/wiki/Hull hull] equally.

*[[Sentaliz]]: Even though the [[Sentaliz]] is a [[:Category:Battleship|Battleship]], its relatively small size and devastating [[hull]] firepower make it a perfect '''Pirating'''vessel. This ship is also good at PvP if you can aim the [[Spinals]].

* [[Witch]]: While being a [[:Category:Battleship|Battleship]], it is very agile for its class. Its ability to quickly destroy shields with its turrets and to finish them off with its spinals makes it one of the best pirating ships.

*[[Helios]]: Amazing Firepower, Speed, and Maneuverability make it a great choice for Pirating bigger Miners and Freighters, with the only downside being its low health, it also has a cargo hold of 1500.

* [[Slipstream]]: While being a [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnought]], it is very fast for a ship of its class. Due to its speed, [[Turrets|Turret]] placement, and firepower, it is perfect for killing ships below its class, and since it has high [[hull]], it can dive [[Ships]] near [[Starbase]]s and dodge most of the [[Turrets|Lasers]] due to its top speed.

* [[Leviathan]]: One of the best PVP ships in general, this ship is very balanced and is often used as a '''Pirating''' tool in order to easily destroy ships that are weaker than itself. Having [[Turrets|Railguns]] at the front of the ship allows it to snipe [[Ships]] while still at the [[Starbase]]. It is also able to use its [[Spinals]] in a similar fashion, making it a popular choice for all-around '''Pirating'''.

*[[Avalon]]: Although not designed for PvP, its turrets and spinals are all hull-focused, with its powerful 3 Medium Torpedos. Best paired with a shield-breaking ship like a [[Warden]] since your turrets will deal pitiful damage to shields. Just remember to be ready to warp out as soon as reinforcements come, since the Avalon is a glass cannon, and has very bad maneuverability
