Description
This ship belongs to the premium technology
Premium ships bring their pilots more credits and experience. Moreover, they do not require repair, have 2 more cargo slots for Open World than standard ships and also the maximum level of experience when buying! And, finally, you can install all the “unique and for the premium ships of the same role” weapons, modules and modifiers (maximum 2).
Engineering ships are designed for construction of auxiliary facilities on the battlefield, as well as for repair of allied ships. Engineers serve as a reliable rear guard for their team.
Phoenix is another marvel of pirate engineers. Initially it used to be a Styx, though proving it seems to be rather impossible. The first ships began attacking Imperial convoys in 4611. The heavily-armed frigate was capable of fighting against transport escorts with ease, while simultaneously carrying out field repairs for allied forces. According to the Sargas Fund, more than a hundred convoys were destroyed with the help of the Phoenix frigates.
Despite all positive qualities of the ship, the Legion forces have easily managed to capture a few prototypes for further research. As it turned out later, Phoenix was equipped with non-standard engines and an improved power supply system, operating on the verge of overloading at all times. The ship’s hull also received additional armor. Among other things, the ship has many combat modules of federal origin. Separately, it is worth noting the ship’s extended bridge, which was the reason why many collectors bought the frigate.
The ship’s blueprints, created based on the results of the research, were transferred to the UMC. Despite its high cost, many mercenaries gladly purchase Phoenix to take part in heavy combat. However, the leadership of the Center does not recommend flying this frigate in Imperial space, as these machines used to lead the largest pirate raids, and are associated with pirate leaders. This fact gives the Imperial forces the right to destroy the ship at the slightest suspicion of any illegal activity.
In 4622 the ship was significantly enhanced and the already issued Phoenix are now being modernized. The new auto-repair system is rumored to be able to get the ship back in service even when the hull is severely damaged, as long as vital on-board equipment remains operational.
Unique ship equipment
Weapon
- Rapid-fire weapon with high critical damage.
Active modules
- A temporary shield for the host ship or its allies. This shield can absorb significant incoming damage during the next 5 seconds. If not destroyed, upon powering down it temporarily increases critical hit chance.
- Has a small generator, that constantly restores the shield. Upon activation, links the host's ship to the selected ally. Because of this link, shield levels of both ships are equalized. The module allows to quickly restore and strengthen an ally's shields or cover yourself with your team's help.
