Well, I've played as TEC many times, but the Akkan is the only ship they have that I don't get. It just doesn't ever seem to be anything I would ever use, yet some players swear by it. The following is what I note:
Hull/Shields: Average.. Nothing special here...
DPS: High for a colonizer, only slightly below the Kol.
Colonize: I do see the value in this. Sure, its not a huge cost reduction, but it is nice nonetheless.
Ion Bolt: Its a good interrupt and can potentially act as an interrupt or PJI, but aside from that I don't see how it could really be considered a cap killer.
Targeting Uplink: I see very little point in this ability unless in an asteroid field or when facing off massed SC.
Armistice: So you can retreat an otherwise worthless cap? This doesn't really do anything.. It just hits pause. You can argue that it gives you a bunch of time for reinforcements, but I don't really think that a minute is going to do all that much...
I don't know.. Whenever I try using this ship, it never really seems to be worth anything other than colonizing. Aside from that, I feel like I wasted a bunch of credits and resources. Any explanation as to why Ion Bolt is better than I'm making it out to be or how TU is worth anything would be appreciated..
