Goldfish 1.3.3

<< < (5/12) > >>

Mizhir Starsurge:
Given that it took me a while to get my "Kill Goldfish" achievement done, it can be concluded that the Goldfish is underrepresented, atleast outside novice matches. Since it is one of the 3 ships that are available in novice matches, but still not so common in other matches, it must mean that many people disregards it.

I hate sitting on a Goldfish side gun with another ship almost in arc while their armor is down, their guns or engines are disabled... and the Hwatcha is starting a reload.

There's a reason why they called it goldfish.

To swim they tilt their heads to one side and the other... One side and the other... One gun side and the other...

Queso:
Since it seems the game has moved heavily towards comboing guns well since early in it's life when the goldfish was designed, I wouldn't be against giving the side guns a tiny bit of a forward tilt. Enough so that you can get a light heavy combo with some weapons, but not enough that you don't have to still swim the ship, and certainly not enough to trifecta.

Nidh:
I find that despite the Goldfish's decent turning speed, using all three weapons is impractical. I try to only use the right-most sidegun along with the main to maintain a bi-fecta. Switching between all three guns takes too much time and throws off any position-related advantages in my experience. Best to find two guns that overlap in arc and just use those (Heavy Carronade + Artemis, and Hwacha + Light Carronade work well) As to the reason why I use the right-most gun, it's the easiest to access for the hull-engineer. For the left-most gun I usually take a support or an "in case of ambush" weapon.

I would not go there at all. It would become an unhealthy trend that would also go by Squid.

Come on guys, think about this.  With the use of all 3 guns, you are basically a heavy disabler. Much more so than the Squid
I even hold a mine on my goldfish just to give an extra pressure. Not only that, the goldfish is a good rammer. Not as good as pyra but it can still ramm a ship situationaly.
