Description

The Snowfall is a winter-themed Battleship that has focus on Broadside-firepower.

This Battleship focuses on Broadside-firepower and excels at being a flagship in a fleet due to the diversity of Turrets it has and having a high health for a Battleship. It's firepower leans more on shredding Shields due to it's 10 Medium Phasers.

Appearance

The Snowfall is a long Battleship with most of it's materials being made of snow. There are spiky ice ornaments decorated all around the ships, including 5 Spinal Barrels on each side of the ship.

The Interior is snow-covered box, containing a yellow-teleporter door and the pilot seat.

Advantages

• Diversity of Turrets gives it accuracy and the ability to hit small Ships.
• High turn-speed and acceleration for a Battleship.
• Has the ability to shred Shields at a Shield DPS of 379.
• Great Spinals for a Battleship.
• Excels at broadside combat.

Disadvantages

• Expensive for a Battleship and will be hunted for being a Limited Ship.
• Broadside Spinals can be difficult to get used to.
• Has low Hull DPS compared to Shield.
• Unbalanced Shield Health compared to Hull, making it vulnerable against Hull-Breakers.
• The total health does not reflect well on the total price, especially for a Battleship.

Strategy

• Do not use this ship alone. If you do so, travel with a heavy escort that you can trust.
• Always face the side of your ship to the enemy to maximize damage output, especially its Spinals.
• Focus on shield tank ships such as the Aegis, or Judgement as the ship outputs high Shield DPS.
• When one Spinal is reloading, fire the other Spinal while turning your ship with your fast turnspeed.
• Avoid Hull-Breakers such as the Ridgebreaker, or Hawklight due to your unbalanced health.
• Remember to use Spinals, as they account for 60% of this ships' total DPS.
