Anyone else disappointed with the Millennium Fauxlcon?

[sydphonia]

It looks good, has nice maneuverability stats, sadly doesn't hover. It's a bit boring, honestly. I can't help feeling like there's not really a reason to own this ship, and I find myself wishing it really maxed out on something to make it unique. The circular shape makes me think it *should* be maneuverability (but I'll have to max out the ship modules to see what I can get). As such I can't find a reason to switch my main ride from the Starborn Runner (and a Sentinel was my main for year before that).

It's just for show tbh.. Shame though, cause they put way too much effort into how it looks for it to just be tossed to the side. I've compared it to many of my ships and I don't think I had a single ship that didn't outclass it in some stat or simply better superchardge layout.
And that's with all the best in slot modules in a variety of configurations. Missed opportunity really.

Later in the game, when I get bored, I will bring it into my game to flit around space a bit. It is something different to do for a while. I think it is kinda ugly actually but then we all have our own tastes. The size and fact that it can't hover are show stoppers for most of the planet activity.

I call it "The Space Bagel", and as already mentioned, It's far too big, and I had a lot of difficulty finding landing spots a lot of times.
I switched back to a Sentinel Ship on Rucand, originally something like "Hunter something" that renames itself to "Crimson-ßψ"

It's not just an explorer though. Both its damage bonus and it's maneuverability bonus are higher than what any explorer will ever have. Quite a bit higher in the case of its damage bonus.

Its stats are a hybrid of Fighter and Explorer, taking the best of each. Similar to how the Iron Vulture is a hybrid of Hauler and Fighter.

Has anyone shown a screenshot of how fast it can go with the Polo bobblehead and starship trail boost? I haven't bothered to try it out yet.

Yeah I quickly returned to my sentinel ship θ-Flameborn, it's literally a tiny rectangle with no wings that could navigate and land in a cave if it wanted to lol!

It's a pain to land, which is a deal breaker.

I wish you could scrap it for parts and mix those parts with other ships like the Iron Vulture. There was a scrap for parts option but it never gave parts.

We need more rare / special parts that can be used for ship customization.

The Millenium Wombat? kind of like it in a surplus store kind of way.

Mine is currently eye candy with maxed out upgrades sitting in my freighter alongside my Utopia Speeder, Starborn Runner, and Iron Vulture, while I ride around in my Golden Vector.

Haha yeah someone linked you the video, I think you're in for a pleasant surprise with this one. I was blown away myself when I finally found out.

[ArgentumRattus]

it can't hover like a sentinel ship and landing is a pita so I don't like it and will probably never use it on my main save. I do however really like the blue sentinel ship I got during this expedition...ah i should have taken a screen shot of the glyphs to go get it on my main save, stupid me :(

[Funpire]

I won't use anything that can't hover. Personally, I love my custom iron vulture. I edited the stats to match the reward iron vulture.
