Description

The Patriot is a powerful event dreadnought added during the Fourth of July Event 2023.

Appearance

The Patriot is mostly grey with a few red parts. It has several engines in the rear that are lit up blue and emit a unique blue trail. There is a bridge on the top and two prongs sticking out of the front of the ship.

Interior

The interior is nothing more than a white box with a teleporter and a seat.

Advantages

  • High health.
  • Decent DPS for a dreadnought.
  • Huge cannons allow for quickly finishing off a crippled capital ship.
  • Turrets are good at melting away shield.
  • Strong against shieldbreakers due to most of the health being hull.

Disadvantages

  • Hard to obtain; requires destroying and/or looting at least 2 Outlaws, which can only be spawned by admins.
  • Will most likely be targeted due to its limited status and how hard to obtain it is.
  • Huge profile means that spinals will easily hit you.
  • When destroyed, it is hard to re-obtain, keeping in mind that the event is ending July 10th.
  • Requires good spinal aim to effectively deal hull damage.
  • Lopsided health means that this ship is weaker toward hullbreaking ships.
  • Weak to swarms of small ships.

Strategy

  • Use sparingly, as this is a difficult ship to obtain and will go offsale soon.
  • if you have other ships that you can use, treat this one like a trophy.
  • Even though this ship is a decent tank, try not to attempt to not tank due to the limited nature of this ship.
  • If you do tank, know when to warp out.
  • Use your total of 12 huge cannons per volley to finish off any crippled enemy ships and possibly steal some kills.
  • If an enemy is retreating and is hulled, dive them and finish them off with your cannons. Your large healthpool is most likely enough to survive that along with earning a kill.

Version History

  • Added in .76d

Trivia

  • This is the only player-owned ship that debuted in the Fourth of July Event 2023
  • In the ship spawn menu and game commands, this ship is called "The Patriot," instead of just "Patriot." Whether this is a mistake or not is unknown.
  • The boss you had to kill in order to obtain this ship could have only been spawned by admins, and this ship is the first of its kind for that.
  • This ship looks exactly like the Outlaw, which is the NPC counterpart and the boss you had to kill to get this ship.
