Some find the Bayamon with 4apsgs the best.....that is if you use psgs.

either the Bayamon (4 weapon mounts with bPACs / IonDs / aPSGs)
or the Mako (only 2 mounts, IonDs / gPAC[not sure if gamma])

In my opinion, the bayamon is THE best ship to capture anything from m5's over TS to M3s (spare Khaak M3s).
But you need to capture the the bayamon to start with Best M4 for ship capturing (4)

Id agree with that... a Bayamon with BPac`s could take down all but the biggest ships.... and the Mako is the best that you can buy for the job as far as im concerned (and yes the Mako is GPac Compatable)

I personally use a Barracuda with 2 BHEPT(quick, painless, gets caps at around 70% in under twenty seconds)
But before that I used the Mako with 1 ID and 1 AIRE.

Personally, I can't stand the Mako. It rolls like Jimmy Hoffa in a cement coffin. Best M4 for ship capturing (9) Best M4 for ship capturing (10)

I just prefer to roll and turn in a dogfight rather than use a strafe drive.

Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

X4 is a journey, not a destination. Have fun on your travels.

THe Bayamon is ridiculously good if PSGs/IDs are being used... Capturing, and/or death and destruction come naturally. I did a Xenon Invasion mission in one and took down a Xenon K with it. I found that quite amusing. Also captured a fair few ships with it as well. Moved onto bigger ships now though... the 10 MW of shielding means I have to jink around too much... my co*ckpit kept getting redecorated.

But still... four IDs can take the shields on a Destroyer so fast it's not even funny - especially on such a little ship.

Bayamon is a great ship. Mount 2 Ions, 2 alpha PSGs and 2 low power lasers and you have a fantastic capping machine. Add more Ions or PSGs for something a little more leathal!
