Do you guys know which tool changes the ship position the fastest? In case you need to dodge a Hwacha barrage or something.

Chute Vent, but Hydrogen is preferable.

Indreams:
Reviving the topic.

I've started using an interesting maneuver on a goldfish.
Typically, one rams with a kerosene or moonshine in order to keep your ship in arc.

I've been ramming with a goldfish to knock enemy pyramidions' and hwacha/blenderfishes' arcs. However, instead of ramming straight with kero/moonshine, I do a side ram; maneuvering to the broadsides, using the claw to twist the ship against the enemy, and effectively turning the enemy away from me.

I've also done straight rams with the claw instead of kero/moonshine to better maneuver my arcs. Of course, the ship turns like a hurricane on contact, but I can match whatever maneuver the enemy pilot attempts.

So... claw rams!

BlackenedPies:
Claw rams can be effective, but be very careful. If you get rammed with it on you'll spin around. So yes it works as long as you aren't counter rammed. You can also use claw to pinpoint where you'll hit them near the end of the ram.

Another great tactic is having your throttle in full reverse at the very end of the ram while burning. This bumps you less allowing you to keep gun arcs while they lose theirs. Moonshine is perfect for this. Unless you're ramming them into something, I would always recommend something like this to keep control while they lose theirs.

Dutch Vanya:
Not enough captains make use of chute vent. It can make for some very exciting and risky escapes.
