Which new Guardian Fighter is the best one to have

[Redgoat77]

Now I know they all add a little something special to the fight but I only have one Blueprint so I would like to know which ship I should build first?

[<Caeris↝]

There´s no best one. Everyone has his specials.


Some people recommend Trident & Lance.

Trident got the problem with overheating, but got absolute weapon type and Lance is good for npcs (crew members), because of "aimbot".
Javelin is only good (said the community) against Thargoids (best for swarms).
Javelin & Lance got thermal weapon type.


People are still testing which fighter in which situation is the best and how i said. Some recommend these and other those.

Lance - Hands down the Best Anti-Thargoid fighter. It can attack for high-spike damage at a safe range, and score devestating heart shots on Interceptors.

Trident - The Best "All Rounder" it can do a little bit of everything. Unlike the Plasma Repeater Taipan, the Trident's plasma is TRUE ABSOLUTE DAMAGE which makes it particularly deadly in PVP if not dealt with quickly.

Javelin - My personal Favorite, this is the best Big-Ship killer, functioning as a sort of Dive Bomber, with DPS unmatched by anything except large frag cannons, a skilled pilot can absolutely annihilate enemy ships by pulling close-in strafes, however the ship is not suited to attack Small and nimble vessels. The Javelin is also exceptional at dropping shields from range, as the shards have a 1.4KM Damage falloff (And a 1.4km max range) so pelting shields is always in its wheelhouse.
