Basilisk

  • BasiliskBasilisk is a Coalition-made very heavy fighter

    1. Ship Info-card


    Basilisk once was a prototype fighter used by Coalition Black Guard ace fighter squadron during Alliance-Coalition war. It was one of the first human spacecrafts that mounted a cloaking device, and these ships were the ones that started the war. After the war, along with other Coalition fighters, the design of the Basilisk survived the Coalition Exile. Armed on the same pattern other Coalition ships had, Basilisk was heavier and better armored, surpassed only by Kossac. Low agility and big top profile was compensated, along with flat frontal profile, by big space for NanoBots and shield batteries Basilisk offered.

    3. Advices (added by Ajay, Your Mileage May Vary):


    130/130 of bats/bots, and big amount of armor - that's what can say that Basilisk is not suited for PvP. Ship's agility is just awful, and that's what makes it unpopular amongst pilots. Relatively small cargo bay doesn't makes Basilisk a podder either, as there are more agile fighters with more cargo. Failing hardly in PvP and doing not so great in podding, Basilisk has found its place in Inner Core. Albeit it is harder to fly a heavier ship, if mastered, Basilisk can do decently even in dangerous situations, and stash of batteries and NanoBots can become in handy if any pilot from group is running out of reloaders. If agility doesn't matter for you, you can install Armor Class 10 to be able to "tank" more damage.
