Horizons Corvette build...it kind of bore's me.........what should I look at changing?

Oh come on, that's being dramatic.

My iCutter has some beams on (wait, a loadout that ISN'T full MCs?!) and doesn't actually need to go back to restock.

Not even a "restocks rarely"...with bi-weave shield I can effectively stay indefinitely. Multiple NPCs don't really gang up on you often and if they do you can lose them by boosting through a group of allies. That is if I don't have SCBs and choose to tank them all anyway.

CZs really, really need to kick it up a notch.

Reread my post StiTch,
we're talking about breaking Ceasefire, so ALL of the faction ships are ganging up on you, not just 4 or 5.
And no, even a Cutter (and then with Bi-Weave?) can not stay there indefinitely!

I don't have a maxed out Vette (engineeres wise) but in normal CZ play, where, don't know the reason but it doesn't matter either, I always get aggro from 5++ ships at the latest 5min in, but I extremly seldom lose even half of a ring, and than even more seldom I have to use one SCB.
Yes, CZ is easy-peasy in Vette or Cutter, but not so in medium or smaller ships (besides I've never seen so much aggro against me in smaller ships!).
Let's see in 2.3 after the shield changes, how the new CZs (but I don't think npc AI should get nerfed, only the rail shooters should be less) works out...
But in Ceasefire.... that's were the fun really starts.

Now check that, make a vid of you staying 10++min there, then I will believe you.
I've got 9 ships down, d8veh 13, without loosing armor. Beat that.

I find even in ceasefire they don't all go for me. In fact to an extent it's easier because they don't make a concerted effort for some reason...they apparently gang on up on me even less...

But yeah, it wasn't a question. I am not dreaming this up lol. My iCutter only goes back if I don't want to burn mats synthing MC ammo, because I kill faster enough with the MCs underneath that it's worth restocking, or because I've got into a PvP fight that hurt me.

May well be a different story after the shield booster nerf, but bi-weaves with multiple resistance boosters on a cutter makes you impenetrable over a long period of time.
