Speeder

Speeder

The speed queen of the bay, Speeder gets you where you want to go…or away from things you want to avoid. She excels at hit and run tactics and can get to the capture point before anyone else. What Speeder loses in defense, she makes up for in raw speed and maneuverability. Speeder and her specialist crew members Swift and Sinklair form a game changing tactical element for any battle.

Strategies

Speeders are great at using agility to employ strategies that no other ship can use. There are a number of these different strategies that can be used...

Supportive Role

A supportive Speeder doesn't focus on dealing damage - rather, it focuses on helping teammates deal damage. These Speeders can support their team by using its yellow item slots for a variety of purposes. They can equip speed-boosting items to enable them to distract enemy fire by darting back and forth at the front line. Or, they can equip debuffing items to slow down or stun enemies.

Supportive Speeders generally equip mid to long range weapons, and Turbos or Bandages to help them survive.

Unfortunately, however, supportive-class speeders are vulnerable to sneakerfire. (This means damage dealt from an enemy ship behind them.)

Aggressive Role

Aggressive Speeders use close-range weapons such as Carronades or Grenade Launchers to quickly approach and damage specific targets. Its yellow items are usually focused on helping themselves accomplish their goal - these would include speed-boosting items, as well as Tesla Bolt and Tesla Shield.

During combat, these Speeders employ hit-and-run tactics against vulnerable targets such as Fixers. Or, if a single enemy ship were to be separated or otherwise isolated from their team, the Speeder would quickly approach and eliminate them.

This isn't always effective though. Any ship far from a speeder can easily annihilate the Speeder itself without that player realizing.

Miner

Mines can be commonly found on Speeder loadouts. These Speeders focus solely on laying mines around enemy positions, denying access to certain areas or making maneuvering very difficult. They almost exclusively equip speed-boosting items in other slots.

Unfortunately, an unlucky Miner speeder can run into other mining speeders, meaning that ship can easily get blown up.
