The '''''Slipstream''''' is a fast and maneuverable [[Slarfie]] [[:Category:Dreadnought|'''Dreadnought''']] with a focus on speed and turret firepower.
== Description ==
== Description ==
What the '''Slipstream''' lacks in shield integrity it makes up with sheer [[Hull]] strength. Its speed of 119 makes it faster than all other [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts]] in the game, tied with the [[Cyber Leviathan]]. This ship's speed and decent accuracy makes it great for [[Pirating]] large [[:Category:Freighter|Freighters]] and [[:Category:Miner|Miners]].
What the '''Slipstream''' lacks in shield integrity it makes up for with sheer [[Hull]] strength. Its speed of {{#cargo_query:tables=ShipData|fields=ShipData.top_speed|where=ShipData._pageName = '{{PAGENAME}}'}} makes it faster than all other [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts]] in the game excluding the [[SR-71]]. This ship's speed and decent firepower makes it great for being a multipurpose ship. All these combined, the Slipstream can be used as a multi-role ship like other [[:Category:Advanced Ship|Advanced Ships.]]
== Interior ==
== Appearance ==
The interior is pretty simple, having a cockpit and two terminals at the right and left side of the pilot's seat and a hologram in front of the seat. There are also a few decorative elements that do not function.
The Slipstream is the tallest ship in the game, and also one of the thinnest capital ships. It features a large fin on top of the ship, as well as an even larger one on the bottom, and has many orbital turrets around the ship. The ship sports a unique color palette with orange-yellow and blue detailing around the ship. In the middle, there can be text in Alien Language that says <span style="color:#FFAE42">"Peace For All"</span>.

== Advantages  ==
== Advantages  ==
* [[Turrets]] have good placement and a decent line of sight and can shoot behind the ship.
*The highest turret DPS of any [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts]] at {{#cargo_query:tables=ShipData|fields=ShipData.turret_dps|where=ShipData._pageName = '{{PAGENAME}}'}}, close to [[Deity]]'s DPS of {{#cargo_query:tables=ShipData|fields=ShipData.turret_dps|where=ShipData._pageName = 'Deity'}}.
* High speed for a [[Ships#Dreadnought Class|Dreadnought]] at a whopping 119 max speed, faster than most [[:Category:Battleship|Battleships]] and even some [[:Category:Battlecruiser|Battlecruisers]], as well as being much faster than the [[:Category:Prototype|Prototypes]].
*[[Turrets]] have good placement and a decent line of sight and can shoot behind the ship.
* Very high [[Hull]] health.
*One of the fastest [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts]] at 120 max speed, faster than most [[:Category:Battleship|Battleships]] and even some [[:Category:Battlecruiser|Battlecruisers]].
* Its high [[Hull]] health makes it really useful for diving [[Ships]] near [[Starbase]]s as it can't take optimal damage from their [[Turrets|Heavy Lasers]].
*High [[Hull]] health, making it strong against shield-breakers.
* A good ship against shield breakers.
*Versatile [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnought]] to dive ships with, having high firepower and speed to chase its target.
* One of the best [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts]] to dive a [[Starbase]], having enough speed to dodge most of the [[Turrets|Heavy Lasers]].
*High turn speed for a [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnought]].
*High turn speed for a [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnought]]
*Very versatile for a Dreadnought, It can chase hulled ships, being a support in sieging [[Starbase]]s, and fighting other Capital Ships.
* More HP than the Armageddon in both stats.
*Can outmaneuver most Dreadnoughts, making it useful in PvP as well.
* A good hull tank, it's fast speed allows it dodge most base turrets if at a range of 5k studs.
*A jack of all trades.
== Disadvantages ==
== Disadvantages ==
* Extremely weak [[shields]] for a [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnought]].
*Weak [[Shields]] compared to [[Hull]], making it susceptible to hull-breakers like the [[Ridgebreaker]].
* Low firepower compared to other [[:Category:Dreadnought|Dreadnoughts]], especially when it lacks [[Spinals]].
*Tall build makes it easier for [[Spinals]] to land a hit on the ship vertically. However, this can be fixed by turning the ship sideways.
* Tall build makes it easier for [[Spinals]] to land a hit on the ship vertically.
*Difficult for all [[Turrets]] to fire at once unless pointing directly in front of the target.
* Susceptible to hull-breakers like the [[Ridgebreaker]].
*Low accuracy for most of its weapons.
* Third most expensive build menu Dreadnought.
* On the weaker side of Dreadnoughts.
*Has difficulty docking if other large [[ships]] are under it.
*Has difficulty docking if other large [[ships]] are under it.
*Jack of all trades, master of few.
*[[:Category:Advanced Ship|Advanced]] ship on a limited rotation, meaning it will be expensive and cannot be re-obtained until it is back in rotation.

* If you line up correctly with an enemy ship chasing you, the chances to hit it at 100% speed will Increase.

* You can [[Galaxy Slang|drift]] at full speed by turning your ship 90 Degrees at full speed then pressing Z or C, depending on your drifting direction.
* When going against [[Spinals|Spinal]] focused ships, exploit their requirement to travel and keep a long distance to dodge the [[Spinals]] with its speed, while picking away at the enemy's health.
* When going against [[Spinals|Spinal]] focused ships, exploit their requirement to travel and keep a long distance to dodge the [[Spinals]] with its speed, while picking away at the enemy's health.
*Avoid large groups of skilled battlecruisers, as just 3 [[Aeaphiel|Aeaphiels]] can heavily damage or even destroy you.
*Avoid large groups of skilled [[:Category:Battlecruiser|Battlecruisers]], as just 3 [[Aeaphiel]]s can heavily damage or even destroy you.
*Always keep an eye on your health, this ship is extremely expensive, and you might not afford losing it.
*Use the excellent maneuverability to dodge the fire of stronger PvP ships that require their spinals to deal damage.
*Try not to use it as a flagship in sieges, it can’t tank for very long and has mostly low range turrets. Instead use it to fight off defensive enemy ships or to support heavy sieging ships.
*Easily pirate defenseless miners and freighters with the speed and turret firepower.
*2-3 of these, much like the triple [[Osiris]], can easily cut down dreadnoughts and fight against most [[:Category:Super Capital Ship|Super Capitals]]. Don't be afraid to take on lone dreadnoughts, though stay vigilant as lone dreadnoughts may be a bait.
