Is two shields a disadvantage?

I'm running a setup of three torpedos and a medium range motor and I am mk4 Shooter with 1251 infamy.

I have an tier two epic big shield and a tier two rare standard shield with 3100 hp. I have a rare turbo should I switch?

Edit: sinklair is level 17. ive been using 400-500 pearls to level up each time because my storage capacity is only 450.000

 

Sorry. It is a shooter but thanks for the feedback

 

definitely hold onto the shield for now, but having a turbo equipped is a necessity. Without a turbo you're a sitting duck at higher levels. (or any level from a stand still)
That little bit of extra speed will get you out of the center of those mortas and fire bombs ect.
I couldn't encourage you more to go for turbo.

 

definitely go turbo then.

 

You have a much bigger disadvantage than the two shields in that setup...

 

Turbo is the best blue item for every ship in the game.

 

Turbo is good especially for a defender as they are slow. Some of the best players in the game say it is a must have but i am sad because i only saw those videos 5 minutes after i scrapped my epic turbo. I am now using my uncommon level 10 turbo.

 

I hear what your saying. But the same people who ripped me for using three torpedos are the same people stuck in 600-700 infamy and I'm at 1250 with a 4 winning streak.... it's my style and I'm usually tops on my team. Add me if you want

 

I scrapped my epic turbo by mistake too

 

Thanks. I should of worked this whole thread better haha but was too tired when I posted it

 

Ive been logging in every day, doing every quest to and still waiting for the tier two torpedos. I don't have tier 3 uncommon torpedo because that's what I want. I'm trying for an epic torpedo or some more rare torpedos.

You can't really knock me for using three torpedos when you haven't practiced with them or tried using them before. It's a nice setup. I can judge when a enemy is standing still and make the shot, and I am good on speculation shots if they are going left or right. I got torpedos coming in all asides. I'll admit tho.. on days I'm tired or something it is hard to aim.


Sorry for the rant just tired of people ripping my setup when I'll am good with em.

 

Unless your talking about the motor ;P

 

Not a single Canon on your setup, is what he is talking about

 

And for someone who was stuck in 1700 for months and im now im ace league. Id say ya 3 toros may be the disadvantage.two big tops maybe and a sniper or canon I'd use in place of the swift toro. But that's just me. I use a shield and turbo tho. And fire, fire for my canons.

 

I have no idea if 1250 is good for your ship, I'm at 3500. But 3 torps is always bad. You should be running at least 2 direct damage weapons. Cannons, railgun, flare gun... stuff like that. Then the other 2 slots you can fill with mortars / fire bomb and torpedos. Your current setup can't do a thing against ships that move fast (unless you hit a torpedo by sheer luck). Good luck killing any speeder or enforcer. I bet you can't even kill a fixer, they'll overboost and you're done.

 

How about using two big shield for defender? Is it beneficial?
