My intent was to make a place for optimizing non-endgame builds because grinding sucks, and it sucks more if you don't know how to do it efficiently. The only people (that I know of) who are already working on this are the Vanilla PvP community, so I figured it would be simple to play by their rules. Evidently, this is more complicated than I anticipated.


OP is updated, accordingly.


Without further ado, I've started researching existing VPvP builds. So far, I've found science/torpedo ships whose builds revolve around exotic damage, and self-healing. Here is another high-aux build, this time using a drain instead of a grav well.

This Mirror Patrol Escort uses a Dual Beam Bank instead of a torpedo, and is BOFFed accordingly.

A beam boat! Though, honestly I wonder if it would perform better with fewer beams, because because by the time its 8th beam fires, its weapons power should be down to 30 or 40 (20-40% loss in damage), depending on recharge math. This beam boat seems more viable, with two EPtWs to maintain its weapons power level.

And finally, a healer.

All of the linked builds were made with PvP exclusively in mind, so each build, with the exception of the Torpedo Spread ability and maybe Gravity Well, is focused on managing one target at a time. For the record, "Beam: Overload" sucks.

The Mirror Universe ships can be purchased from the exchange.
