What is the best fighter bay? I love the Zidagar because only 10 of them can take out a UE Carrier really fast and that yellow- like beam are so good. They are fast and reasonable protected. The Voinian fighters are, sorry to say this, crap. They are too slow, though they have more weapons than other fighters they often loose because they cant turn quick enough to gun down lets say a Azdgari fighter. The UE fighter are **** too. The blaze cannons doesnt do much damage, only two Azdgari fighters was required to gun it down and they dont have enough speed. They can stand a fight with the Voinian fighter sure but certainly not the Crescent ones. The Azdgari are heaps good, with 8 released at the same time and they swarm over the enemy faster than they can even shoot back and their speed makes them an impossible target. The normal crescent fighters arent too bad but need the extra punch that the Zidagar fighter have. Lastly, the Krait fighter. Not even worth mentioning. So, what do you reckon is the best fighter bay?

Well.... seeing as the Zidagar bay is impossible to buy (in my experience???), as is the Voinian bay (also in my experience) unless you buy a ship like the Zidara or Voinian Cruiser where it comes installed.... I'd have to say that the best is the Azdara bay (even tho' it takes up 160 space)...... Azdaras are very nice for doing a lot of damage, but they get destroyed easily if you're not there to support their attack on the target ship.

It's a shame too, because in 1.0.2, fighters make the only homing "weapon" worth buying.

You can't get Ziggies bay, you can't get humans bay, and if you even try getting a bastards bay, I'll rip your head off. {Unless your hinwar}

So it's actually crescant, Azz, and Krait.

What do you mean Krait isn't worth mentioning????? That is the lightest bay!! Great for Frieghters that don't want to give up cargo space and warships who have a little extra.....

You can only buy/sell the Krait, Crescent, and Azdara bays. The Krait bay is very inferior, although it requires the least amount of space. The crescent bay is superior to the Krait bay, if you can fit it. The Azdara bay is the best of all bays, but it takes up the most space by far. Plus, you can only get the Azdara bay if you work for the Azdgari, or if you capture an Azdgari Warship.

If you're in a ship that comes with a Zidagar/Voinian/UE fighter bay, then you have nothing to lose by using them (after all, you can't sell them).

There are some plugins that allow you buy and sell all bays.

I you score enough points with UE, you are recommended for the UE fighter bay. Believe me, it's certainly possible.
