Teladi Enhanced Kea

Post by alt3rn1ty » Thu, 16. Dec 21, 21:06

In X3AP Tormented Teladi start, we got our hands on my favourite AP ship, the Enhanced Kea.

Can we still get our hands on one in FL?
I know we do not have the same game start which that unique ship was assigned to, so I am assuming that only normal Teladi Kea's will be available at some point .. But just wondering if it maybe is still in the game somewhere.

The spawning rules in FL have changed, so almost all ships can now be found flying around.

so you should be able to find one and steal it

The enhanced ones can be found escorting larger ships, I waited until all the other escorts went through a gate then hosed him with EBC fire, he bailed immediately! So fast none of the other Teladi ships turned hostile in fact :lol:

The Enhanced Kea is also sometimes found among Pirate squadrons. Much more worthwhile to whack Pirates for their ships.

I got one from the Yaki just the other day. Try roaming and hitting them in Savage Spur. Pay attention when the Salvagers come to collect spoils out of the South gate. Then do your best to make them bail. The respawn rate is decent in there, so you should have a nice time popping them and collecting dropped ordinance as you go.

I use the enhanced Kea to shuttle ecells to larger ships, best done by parking said ship as close to the SPP as possible. The enh. Kea may be capacious, but speedy it is not! :lol:

Speedy it is not still, but got I did to RE. Aamon is another they frequently fly. Given the game treats each wing as a different cell, might want to give it a go anyway, and worry about rep repair afterwards. Afterall, Yaki is still the pirates way. :D

My Yaki rep is 99% Wanted Man, my Pirate Rep is second mate so I can buy a Brigantine when I can afford it, my second complex has already made 20M credits so it's not going to be too long. I might build my third while I have the rep for their IBL forges, save me having to make them although I do have the plans :D

I got 4 red bars with them now. :lol:

Did you know Dukes likes it when you try to steal from them? I get a rep bump every time my diplomat fails to steal from them. I love it.

:D You lot are just a bunch of rowdy rebels :D
Only just discovered my 3rd sector in FL (still playing X4 too), so I have a way to go before deciding how to go throwing my self around.
The Kea for me when I played AP last was the perfect feel for dog fighting, but the extra space afforded me a few more weapons for Shimrods Smart Turrets to swap in / out at appropriate enemy ranges. Haven't tried it yet in FL but hoping to install the mod soon.

I plan to use Enhanced Kea as extra cargo space for my Hyperion when I get one. I did it in TC, in AP I had to make do with the Blastclaw Prototype :lol:

The Blastclaw Prototype's ability to carry 5 marines is why I choose it for my Kogarasu Maru's docking port. That gives me 17 marines for boarding.

That ship cannot use pods so you'd be boarding via spacewalk. The Acinonyx Prototype can use them, however. It won't be long before I can use my Sirokos for its intended use. While it certainly makes for a capable miner I have other ships for that.

A handful of my marines have finished training, I've almost got enough for boarding corvettes and TLs, which is going to be fun! :D

Once docked, I can transfer the marines up to Kogarasu, which can use pods. After I launch the 12 that are already on the M6.

Sounds like I need to claim that ship and use it to grab an Atmo Lifter before clearing out the Argon and Boron ships that turn up.

Sounds like you're on the Terran side of the plot, which means you won't get the Kogarasu until after the Argons and Borons show up.
