Lookjng, particularily at the Cutlass Blue compared to the Zeus MR.

I know the nerf bat hasn't hit the Zeus yet. I also know the MR isn't flyable yet.

I'm more looking for first impressions on the Zeus compared to the Cutlas Blue, in particular speed and agility.

I know the Zeus has a crew of 3 vs. 2. I know the Zeus has both a QED and an EMP.

If the Zeus can't keep up, though, the EMP and QED are pretty useless.

I know, get both, but it seems pretty redundant, like having both an Avenger Stalker and a Hawk.

Based on my experience with the Zeus ES *so far,* it fits the general CIG progress where it's a much NICER ship (being newer) and perhaps a slightly more capable ship too, but you'll NEVER get that Drake 'bang-for-your-buck' that you do on the Cutlass. . . Not sure if that helps or not.

I've long since given up on trying to get a ship based on what it CAN do in the future. Current stats don't seem to matter since CIG wields the buff/nerf bat quite liberally. Super Hornet, Ares Inferno/Ion, Corsair, etc, etc.

Imma getting them ships for the looks these days. I also got the Zeus cause it has a toilet. I don't wanna have to fling open the door on a Cutlass while in Quantum so I can empty out the bucket!

Like the freelancer the cutlass is old and very out of date.

That being said I just melted my Zeus CL as I prefer my Connie Taurus
