*Large Cargo Hold.
*Large cargo hold. (300)
*The combination of 26k total health and 55% damage resistance means that this ship's health is comparable to a [[:Category:Super Capital Ship|Super Capital]], due to this, it can take the most punishment out of every ship except [[Prometheus]], [[:Category:Super Capital Ship|Super Capitals]], [[:Category:Admin|Admin Ships]], [[Ghoul Nyx]] and [[Retro Nyx]].

*Monstrous explosion value of '''1250''' (12,500 stud radius) can easily destroy all smaller ships in range, and even some smaller [[:Category:Capital Ship|capital ships]], provided their health has been sufficiently crippled first. Not to mention, this has a larger explosion than some [[:Category:Super Capital Ship|super capital]] ships.

*The fighters alone possess incredible combined firepower far exceeding that of the [[Prototype X-2|Prototype X-2]], and the '''Nyx''' has enough turret firepower to defend itself against most ships even without the use of its fighters.

*This ship requires cooperation to be properly utilized.
*This ship requires multiple people to properly protect and use to deal proper damage.
*Sometimes ignored by teammates, leaving nobody to pilot the [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]].
*Unreliable without AI Fighters.
* This ship is seen as a golden target for opportunistic pilots, given its low mobility and huge profile.
*Expensive.  
*Takes time to make back the amount of money it costs.
*No [[Spinals]].

* Inexperienced pilots will have a hard time piloting some [[Nixesion|Nixesions]] out of the hangar of the '''Nyx''' due to the edges of the wings being clipped inside of part of the hangar itself.

*Many blind spots due to the size of the ship, the most easily exploitable blind spot being a large non-collidable mid-section(below the top of the ship next to the hangar bay) of the ship where even ships the size of large [[:Category:Battleship|Battleships]] are able to fit in and attack the Nyx without risk of being attacked by the Nyx's turret armament.

* With the current model, it is difficult to get into the pilot seat when not teleporting to the ship, without getting stuck; and similarly it is difficult to get out of the ship due to glitching into the floor of the interior upon exiting the ship. This makes using the ship pretty much a death sentence if you get into a situation where you need to dock and then quickly de-spawn.

*Bait and Switch: Warp Into a dangerous zone, tell pilots to enter the [[Nyxesion|Nixesions]] and then warp out of the zone leaving the [[Nyxesion|Nixesions]] to deal with whatever you wanted dealt with. (Make sure you actually have a team that will listen to you.)

* When attacking this ship, it is recommended to get at least 3000 studs away before it explodes, or you might be destroyed by the explosion.
* When attacking this ship, warp as fast as possible away from the explosion to avoid becoming nuked.
*A '''Nyx''' at [[War]] with multiple factions will almost always gather a fleet with the purpose of defeating it. Never rely on the '''Nyx'''<nowiki/>'s health to tank a fleet.

*Generally avoid the [[Mjolnheimr]] as it can destroy [[Nixesion]]s with ease using its high-accuracy weapons.
*Avoid AA ships s<nowiki/>uch as the [[Mjolnheimr]] or [[Ampharos]] - their accurate turrets will shred your fighters.
* If the enemy faction is nearby, release [[:Category:Fighters|Fighters]] at your base to deal free damage without having to spawn a credit costing ship.
* If the enemy faction is sieging, try to use your own fighters to defend the base.
*Though the '''Nyx''' is capable of tanking, always be ready to escape or despawn, as being dived could easily lead to death due to the '''Nyx's''' low mobility and firepower. Never overestimate the vessel's health.
