    So i fancy using my free ship token for a warbird, at least it'll go nicely with my Rommie toon and now my fed main can use them too!

    I've narrowed it down to the T6 Hathos Warbird or the T6 Ar'kif Tactical Carrier; both are essentially the same ship stats-wise but with one having pilot spec and the other intel. Also one has a single hanger and one has an experimental weapon.

    So which is the better option? I know a hanger can potentially be useful but honestly I just don't trust pet AI to work half the time and at least an experimental weapon is easier to manipulate and get working in my favour.

    I'm hoping someone with experience of Rommie ships can chime in.

    Hangers vs Experimental Weapon? I doubt that any one Experimental Weapon can come anything close to the DPS and utility of a good hanger.

    The Experimental Protomatter-Laced Sheller can do that it does in general over 24K and I think the highest number I ever got was something like 35K with it.

    This is my quandary!

    Usually a hanger can give out a fairly hefty DPS boost BUT the AI used by hanger pets is so shonkey in this gameas to make them useless in many battles.
    I mean i run a JHDC with elite attack ship pets and it can be brutal, but more often than not they just completely ignore commands and don't actually help much at all.

    An experimental weapon on the other hand can be upgraded to max easily enough and can be used as and when needed. And like Bridger said, some of them are seriously potent weapons.
