The OG planet killer

The garumba. One of my all time favorite ships in the game. It's javelin makes the phaser lance look like a joke, not only is it more accurate, but it's on a ship that can line up without a jump console and it looks sick as hell. Since fvk queues never pop I finally moth balled her, but with cross faction queues coming I dusted it off, and started retro fitting her with all new toys. I haven't had this much fun in a long time. Any one else fly is sexy beast got any tips or tricks they wanna share?

    I'm having a total brainfart on the name of the guy that I last saw flying one...he was pretty evil in it, but that was forever and ever ago.

    Ah...Lady Fek'Ihr@I don't remember. Getting there...

    The Guramba (minus Seige mode) is the exact same as a Fleet Escort. This is the reason I even initially bought it. (I really dislike most KDF console/Boff layouts) I don't even bother with Seige Mode now as i'm running MK XII AP's, but will use it again when I get some XII Disruptors. Landing the final blow with the javellin never gets old. Just remember that it handles like an assault Cruiser while in Seige.

    It's nice to be able to fit the leech and theta, but having to make a choice, IF you want either, get the leech and train six ranks of FloC. I absolutely love my Guramba. While not sharing my build, I'll offer to give pointers. Drop by Karrat sometime and look for Lady Fek'Ihr, I'm around usually primetime for East Coast U.S.

    Think they'd just Fleet Patrol it (since it's basically the old Fleet --> Patrol)...or perhaps work it as the 5x Tac Console boat?

    gecko actually mentioned a fleet gurumba the other day on priority 1. to come out 'soon' after season 9. constellation finally too. i don't know why it takes so long to release a ship that needs no new art, its not like the gurumba would even have a fleet material.

    I would love a fleet garumba, and I honestly wouldn't mind if they made the javelin a console to even it out, of course...if you want to give me a 10th console for free I wont complain haha. I flew a garumba exclusively when I FIRST started pvping, lady was one of my first teachers. I saw a garumba flying around kerrat tearing s*** up but I didn't catch the name. I'm thinking the trick is to live up to the SIEGE part of siege destroyer and get super tanky and use as much +turn as I can get to vape (and I mean VAPE) people every 2 minutes or so.

    I think 4xeng 2xsci 4xtac would make sense. but by all means...give me another tac console haha :) I wont turn it down.....

    Nothing sexier than a Garumba with Aegis shield.
