i use this cool gadgets xandelevium blaster,laserbeam if the enemy get closer,engine overdrive for getting out of black holes or enemies,lbss stealth system so the enemies cant see me shield buble if my ship is heavily damaged feild hopper for getting out of black holes,HE proximity mine if an enemy is following me.
i dont care what they say that gatherer is not good for fighting but for me its good because i can kill like 200 ships a day if i play non stop.(i know gatherer is for mining because gatherer has 5000 mining capacity)
