    are speeder players saying speeder players (themselfs) are better at the game? that their ship requires more skill that the other ships and that defender or shooter just requires you to shoot blindly or spam motars?

    YES!!!

    Enforcers are the alpha boat. They should lead. Fixers can literally reheal a team to full if you let them making them highly valuable.
    Speeder is that little feggit you cant squash because hes too fast. He's like a mosquito that you want to ignore and at the same time should be aware other wise he'll bite and if its a good one he'll bite hard

    I have played 4 ships, everything aside from fixer and I can vouch for this, speeders require more reflexes and skills.

    On paper, enforcer should be the ship with requires most skills cause you got 6 items to manually control with an enforcer (maximum).

    However practically speaking, it takes practice and reflexes to control speeders. I believe however that at it's best, the fixer is hardest to play.

    Not onky does mk6 fixer have 6 items to control, but also, 3 of those items are to be used against the allies while 2 or 3 used against the enemy. Switching between targetting friends and unfriends must be exhaustingly hard.

    It's not a rant if it's that short.
    0/10, not impressed.



    I don't agree with the "Speeder is hard" thing, either. I don't play Speeder, though, so we have to find a guy that plays Speeder and doesn't have a big head about it.

    I can speak for Fixer, though, at least at mid-level, since I'm about to unlock my Mk 5 Fixer. It's not hard at all. Target-switching isn't that crazy, though I could be biased since I play Enforcer and I tend to play healer in a lot of these types of games. Healing a guy, shooting a guy, and then healing another guy isn't exhausting or difficult, it's fun and very relaxing. I'm not expected to do damage, I get free kudos for keeping my team alive, and I otherwise have total freedom in my build and positioning after they added the Repair Bolt. The 2-point weapon slot(s) can be filled with literally anything, my single yellow slot always goes towards a movement skill, and healing by itself is the easiest job in the game. I can just splash in the pool, so to speak, while my team does all the hard work.

    (Before anyone brings it up, yes, I do damage on my Fixer.)

    I play speeder, mk4, 2.8k infamy, no items above tier 3 rare, speeder isn't that hard. Although I think none of the ships are significantly harder than the others

    I guess how hard and how much skills you need to play a ship depends on the build.

    I built a pure speeder, Dual turbo, dual nitro, dual cannon, obviously it was a lame build and I couldn't do much with it, it's very easy to play but very hard to win, then I switched to items like tesla bolt and freeze blaster which helped me win more games but slightly hard to play.

    My turret agility is lame, I have to aim with my nose, target and shoot 2 more items aside from my guns.
