Arvonian Fighter

Argonian Fighter

 

As the Arvonians consider computers sacred, they are opposed to using drones or computer guided torpedoes. Thus, they have built their military fleet around the Arvonian Fighter, an extremely agile craft with very high speed. They have only limited range, so they are usually encountered as part of the complement of an Arvonian Carrier. Although they are individually weak, in groups they are extremely dangerous.  

 

When compared to a TSN or Ximni fighter, the Arvonian fighter is massive, and slow to turn. Their twin beams cover a much wider arc, and do much more damage at high difficulty, but fire much less often. They will outrun a TSN or Ximni fighter at full boost at difficulty 7 or higher, and will quickly catch up with a fighter that is not boosting. At high difficulty, Arvonian fighters can be a threat even to a squadron of player fighters, as they will gang up on a target and destroy it before the other players can strike. It may help to use dogfighting tactics, use boost to get behind the fighters and stay behind them, or launch missiles from out of range to try and split them up. The Carrier can also draw fire by taunting, as long as Comms sends the taunt before the fighters get in range.

(Between versions 2.0 and 2.2 of Artemis, Beam damage for the Arvonian Fighter was 1-5, with damage capped at difficulty 5. Max DPS was therefore 1.66 at all difficulties from 5 to 11. From Artemis 1.65 to 1.7, they did only half that damage. Prior to version 1.65, the Arvonians did not have carriers, and were called Argonians. The current level of damage is from Artemis 2.3)
