What would it be?

1. Konqul Fixer
2. Aerleen Fixer
3. Lazuli Fixer

Konqul would do the most damage per hit, aerleen would take the least damage per hit, and I imagine lazuli would be able to take the most damage before needing to repair. It's obvious that konqul would do the most damage and take the least amount of energy to do a given amount of damage. But the other two races would take more damage before needing to repair and would use fewer shield restorers and repair nanos. My take on it is that increasing defense (or hull, basically longevity in battle) helps more fighting bases than increasing attack. I think lazuli fixer would be the best.

unless you are auto ranking off a base id go with konqul. energy costs gp whereas credits, ctp, and arti production can get you artis to make up for your ship blowing up quicker.

plus faster damage=base down quicker. hopefully before they can buff.

Lazuli > aerlen. The point of these two races is simply to stall how long you need to repair. the defense added from being aerlen may not even be significant enough to give you an additional 2 hits if your damage cap is high and you defense is low, if your defense is too high then you are not increasing the number of hits at all and it is completely void. Lazuli automatically increases the number by 1.5x.

As for konqul so what similar to aerlen but in the opposite sense. if your attack is half that of the bases defense and you increase to 6/10s you won't see a significant increase in damamge. you might save yourself 1-2 hits. If you have an attack close to the bases defense then the 20% increase would be much more pronounced and you would save several hits, but again if you attack is too high you won't see a difference because the additional attack is not providing enough of an increase.

I would say if you are close to the base defense in attack go konqul otherwise lazuli is the best.

i'd say Konqul Fixer cause of the attack and hull bonuses.

I agree with what little fluffy said, it's all got to do with damage caps.

That's not true, in fact it's effectiveness is weakened if you have low AP.
