The First Ship You Flew In When You Came Out Of Novicehood
BdrLineAzn:
My first ship I flew was back during release where we had no novice games. It was the pre-nerfed Flakfish with flamethrowers on the side. Thing was deadly back then where one stack of fire disabled guns and the flak can strip armor and still kill.
Red-Xiii:
My first love was Mobula. Good old Merc, art, banshees. It ended up being easy to start flying, difficult to master dodging effectively. But really what it did was give me the confidence I needed to try flying other ships. For that, the mobula will always be my favorite ship.
Letus:
Technically, the first ship I flew on was a Junker to learn the different ammo types on in practice mode all by my lonely self...I learned what Lesmok and Heavy did (and back then, heavy was a good clip...oh and 1 stack fires bumped you off your gun, so heatsink was a need for gunners.)
My first crewed ship I ever played on was a Hwatcha Spire (and this is before you could get 4 guns pointed at anyone.)
I was a gunner...I don't know who the person piloting was but they said something like "woah....you're pretty good, 'cause I was able to hit from a distance 'cause I used heavy clip (it worked for spread on gatling gun, so why not hwatcha?)
The first pilot I remember was NateDawg and his Squid.
The Mann:
First ship I ever decided to use was a Pyra.
It had a Mine launcher on 1 and a Flamer on 2.
I decided to name it Nautilus Mk 1 - (Nautilus was the name of my Pyra before I renamed it recently to Hippie Van)
The ship was mainly useless... Well, to the crew that is. Pyra's used to kill ships virtually instantly when rammed.
We rarely hit another ship with the mines... We normally hit ourselves... 8)
On a different note, the flamers used to be poorly optimized so the crew of the enemies used to be frozen when rammed into...
Good times :'(
Skymonger:
The first ship I ever flew was the brawl spire.
Despite coming out of novice, I didn't fly a ship until I was a level 25 engineer and a level 12 gunner.
Since then, I "picked" up some things from flying with good captains, ship builds, flight tricks, friendly banter.
Now I fly a variety of things. Though I will never fly a mobula or junker.
