Imperial Tie Fighter Ship

Assuming canon is being sourced here, TIE Fighters lack shields and therefore lack protection. First Order TIEs though have shield generators and thus have protection.

correct, only the FO Tie has protection

yeah, I'm in a similar boat. I've been farming TIE pilot with the hope of improving his ship but it's just terrible. No defense and pretty weak offense.

They do have a much higher dodge rate than other ships. And whenever I fight one, it seems like it dodged about 80% of the attacks.

Must be the Luminara of ships, Dodges like crazy when the AI plays it, dodges zero when you do.

It does wonders under Tarkin with Vader and FOTP alongside it.

One of my favorite ships. It's super fast, hits hard, dodges really well

Thanks everyone for the response. It was very helpful
