Mk4 speeder build

I run a dual turbo build for mk4 speeder and it's doing great

Almost gives me 1.5 speed

But my agility sucks balls and I want to work on that

Despite soeeder being one of the most agile of ships

30 degrees is not much

I currently run a level 10 rare turbo and level 21 uncommon turbo

Is replacing the uncommon turbo with a rare level 10 rudder worth it or nay?

How useful is agility on practical gameplay?

How much of a difference does it really make?

Will it help me dodge, position and play better?

 

i use rare rudder lvl 17 because agility is crap on Mk4, useful for close combat

 

I see rudder as a defensive item - dodging and weaving to avoid hits.
I play a more agressive style so would rather have raw HP, so use shields instead

 

Yes I know that agility is crap on mk4

Actually it started growing lame since mk3

What I wanted to know is

Is getting a rare rudder level 10 worth losing the uncommon level 20 turbo?

Cause I'll be getting some 6 degrees extra agility in return for .18 speed and I'm not pulling that off till I feel it's worth it

 

Speeders are meant to dodge and weave

They are not supposed to tank and I feel building a speeder like a tank is a bad idea

I'm not asking if I should replace turbos with shields, I have 0 interest in doing so

I want to know if the extra agility is worth losing the speed

 

Id say no.

 

You sure?

8 degrees of agility at the cost of .19 speed

And that's 8 degrees at level 1 rare rudder

At level 10 it should be 10 degrees which would make my speeder go 1.3 at 49 degrees agility

 

I still say no.
Never used rudder on speeder. Cant say I will.
Mk5 speeder main, 2.7k peak infamy.

 

Btw, never used dual turbo either.

As mk5 i run turbo and big shield. Will add bandage or small shield at mk6. Prob bandage, if i get a good one

 

I'm winning a lot of matches with dual turbo

Anyways

I didn't bother getting a rudder for speeder till now cause I figured it has the highest agilitly already

Then it hit me that I already have speed too so why did I take the effort to build more speed

So yeah, speed and agility are a speeders main advantage

I'm gonna try and exploit them both with a turbo and rudder build and see how it goes

I hope the mk7 update adds a blue slot

I'm gonna try dual turbo and dual rudder lol

 

Hey just wondering what you use for yellow items at mk 5 speeder. I like the tesla shield but you can't really use it as you only have 3 slot points.

 

OB and 2x Tesla Bolt.. 1v2 possible when get gud,

 

Okay thanks, I'll definitely try that out.

 

Wouldn't that build work better with an enforcer?

 

It could also work with enforcer. Try it out.

 

I tried out a rare rudder with speeder

Doesn't make a difference

Maybe it'll be a wee bit more helpful at higher mks but doesn't seem to be making a huhe difference

Especially with rare quality

It may make a difference if you can get it as high as 60 degrees

Till then, increasing the agility on a speeder isn't worth losing it's speed

 

Since you are a good speeder

I'd like to know

When is it good to run away alone and when is it better to stay with the team?

I always end up getting the timing wrong and killed
