Strengths:
Pack Mentality: Works brilliantly in groups of four or more, making quick work of her targets and decreasing the chances of getting brutally ripped apart as the Bolt’s packmates work in tandem to disrupt most missiles.
Pack Mentality: Because it [SIZE=10pt]relies[/SIZE] working in groups, the Bolt III alone is quite vulnerable and easily picked off by larger capital ships.
Starfighters: While she’s able to keep pace in some regard with Starfighters she cannot outmaneuver them, leaving her with quite the blind spot when trying to outrun them or chase them down.
Once more things had changed, and no longer would the Bolt bear the symbol of the First Order. Rather, it would bear a corporate one - most likely, Vanir. [SIZE=10pt]Fiolette[/SIZE] knew this, she knew it when she signed the contract with Alric Kuhn. Still, it meant that the Mark III Project was well underway. Utilizing Vanir Technology shipyards she shifted production of the Bolt III and eventually the Dagger III there as well.
Changes to the picket corvette were minimal, if at all. Gutted of fancy defenses this allowed the Primo Victorian Engineers to dress up her speed. It also meant she’d have to rely more on her pack to keep her going in the fight. Outside of [SIZE=10pt]this[/SIZE] there wasn’t a lot of change from one Bolt to the next, the idea was to strip her of any First Order gadgets and bring her back to basics.
Note: Please state the loadout of torpedoes the Bolt III carries (whether this is per squadron/pack or individual), when you use this in combat (PVP/PVE). You cannot change [SIZE=10pt]loadouts in the middle of combat, you must return to a designated resupply zone to swap [/SIZE]loadouts.
