Ship Balancing Feedback
This is a great game to succeed the X-Wing vs Tie fighter era. The feel of flying the ships and the sounds are great. I’ve been playing the dogfights quite a bit, and am often the top player in the g...
I've been maining the fighters on both sides for the most part and, if you're feeling squishy as an X-wing, you're probably not managing shield enough. Try the overloaded shield and overcharge shields before getting to combat. Also don't forget about orienting your shields correctly. You can keep putting excess shield in the direction you want as it goes down. For example, at base 100% front /100% back shield, orienting the shield to the front will put that shield at 200% and the back at 0% and prioritize recharging the front shield. Once front shield is at max, it will put power into the other orientation until you're at 200%/200%. In combat, you can top one side off constantly from the other, effectively giving you 400% shield from one direction. Whenever you're not actively in combat you should usually put them back to neutral and recharge.
