Which Parsec ship to buy now?!?

[V1-Hyper]

FYI, I am simply translating an interesting post written in the German forum by V2-Hyper:

Because Draconis is due very soon and many people already know what's gonna happen with the AnIn-Über ships (that is, if things stay as they currently are on the PTR) That's why now is the time for this one question: Which AnIn-Über ship should I buy, assuming one of them ships is at the top of your wish list.

I have done some thinking and tried to come up with a sensible overview to compare and assess all 4 ships.

Because these vessels are not exactly cheap, a potential buyer should urgently answer this very personal question: „What do I need it for, or what do I wanna put it up against.“

Following assessments are based on my own experience and observations, and thus, are my personal assessments only.

Anin-12 Parsec - “The Killer”

PvP: ++
Storyline: ++
White miss: ++(+)
XP / Cry: +++

Note:
Offensive ship with greatest fire power and thus ideal for most effective farming and to level up.
Moderately useful when being under heavy attack due to neither high armor nor any other defensive gears.

(For white missions half a point is taken away despite fastest kill factor becasue armor is medium and no further defensive weapons.)

Anin-1 Dominator - “The Indestrucible”

PvP: ++(+)
Storyline: +(+)
White miss: ++
XP / Cry: +(+)

Note:
Defensive ship with greatest stamina when under attack.. When it's highest time for all others to run for their lives, the Dominator can still hang around a little longer… on the other hand relatively weak fire power.
Ideal for leading a squad and to direct attacks onto oneself.[/i]

(Half an extra point granted for XP/Cry because an area-covering weapon is on board (AggroBomb), Half an extra point granted for PvP because the more opponents in PvP the more the Scrambler benefits)

Anin-10 Terrorizer - “The Survivalist”

PvP: +++
Storyline: +(+)
White miss: +(+)
XP / Cry: +

Note:
Primarily defensive ship with weak fire power but plenty of means to stop or distract an enemy.
The ideal getaway ship… thanks to stun and aggro beacon, in precarious situations the Terrorizer always 'gets off with a slap on the wrist', no matter whether Mantis or in PvP.

(Half an extra point granted when alone up against Mantis becasue with beacon and dome any damage to the ship can be minimized, despite weak fire power.)

Anin 3 Constructor - “The Doc”

PvP: +(+)
Storyline: ++(+)
White miss: +
XP / Cry: +

Note:
Defensive ship with weakest armor and weakest fire power.
Unsuitable when all alone.
However, greatly gains attractivty within a group!
Furthermore, The Constructor is and has already been virtually essential in a couple of story missions, and thus, is indispensable for story missions and in squads.

(Half an extra point grantred in PvP and Story, becauae in a squad it becomes far more valuable)

Summary:

Depending to your needs, following ship is recommended:

PvP: Terrorizer, (Dominator)
Story: Constructor, (Parsec)
White missions: Parsec, (Dominator)
XP/Cry: Parsec

Terrorizer is also good in storymissions and will be better when the aggrobeacon update comes so, Dominator same.

Ty for translating V1

Btw Pbhuh maybe someone think bit other about my rating but I gave Terror and Domi not so good assessment cause in Story mostly u need either lot of firepower or u have to protect/escort any other ship.
Both of them got nothing! No Firepower and no repair skills.
That`s why I gave Terror and Domi worse rating!

Ok guys, we have compared all 4 Parsec classes respecting the armor today.

Therefore we used Thermoblaster again for correct comparing.

Constructor got 31% damage and we did set it to 100% cause it is the weakes armored ship.

Same should be for all other system ships.

Calculated to completly armor it means:

Anin 3 - Constructor: 100%

Anin X12 - Parsec: 105%

Anin 10 - Terrorizer: 115%

Anin 1 - Dominator: 185%
