[QUOTE="Admin, post: 60550, member: 1"] [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/starfield-players-are-already-creating-all-the-famous-sci-fi-ships-youd-expect']Starfield players have already built ships based on famous craft from across science fiction[/URL], but this player did something else entirely — and may have created the most overpowered ship possible. Redditor [URL='https://www.reddit.com/r/Starfield/comments/16blfdf/i_made_a_stupid_dumb_starship_build_and_its/'][U]Solace_of_the_Thorns[/U][/URL] worked out enemy ships target your ship’s midpoint, which is calculated by taking the distance the farthest two point on the X, Y, and Z axis intersect. Solace_of_the_Thorns wondered, what would happen if the AI shot at a ship without a midpoint? The answer is the “Fat L”, or the "L-Wing". The L-Wing is “effectively immune” to frontal damage, Solace_of_the_Thorns said, because the ship’s midpoint is above and to the left of the ship. That is to say, the L-Wing has an offset midpoint not within the ship, but in… SPACE. Now, it is possible for the AI to hit the L-Wing if they miss, which is an odd thing to say. Stray shots can hit you, but any on-target shot will miss. “This means that as you get closer to the enemy, they actually miss you more, which makes you monstrously good in a dogfight,” Solace_of_the_Thorns explained. The main part of the ship is piled high with HABS, Starfield’s habitat modules, and on the side is a long, thin arm that makes it look like an L. It will not win any spaceship beauty contests anytime soon, but if I want to emerge unscathed from a dogfight with high-level enemy pirates, this is one L that’s really a W.
