PVP is MUCH more fun now that they changed the spac combat, but escorrts are never seen anymnore due to nerf bat..they will likely tweak it but i am tactical ina star cruiser i now average 11 kills 0 yes ZERO deaths,or 1-2 sometimes, its made me enjoy pvping much more and now i do it often, you can now employ "strategy" vs quick button mash kills.
my loadout for pvp is as follows and FYI after 4 pvp matches in a row i ended with match 11 kills 0 deaths match 2 10 kills 1 death match 3 11 kills 0 deaths-again match 4 9 kills 2 deaths.
fore weapons -
dual anti proton beams,trans phasic torpedoes,anti proton turret,single tetryon beam
aft weapons
Tetryon beam array,plasma mines, chroniton mines, tri cobolt device
star cruiser flown by tactical- nomad class
skills supporting by me- ant proton,tetryon,mines
consoles-a +25 trans phasics,a +21 all beam weapons (tactical) a console that gives defense of +21% to all energy types across,eps flow regulater (i forget rate of it)
it takes a LOT to bring my shields down,. i had 5 on 1 vs me until my team caught up and i out lasted the enemy, i took TWO ships down before they had my hull around 21% before reenforcements arrived and i as healed by my eng team 2 and a fellow teamie, i use feedback pulse and hazard emitters as sci skills
our premade pvp team which never lost in 4 matches (trhis was yesterday we been doing it many times a day since patch) are ALL star cruisers team of 5
