No such thing as a "good" IS Streak boat. You're always better off with MRMs.

Four Streak 6s or two MRM30s.... the choice should be easy.

FWIW, MRMs are hideously ineffective against small fast lights at about 300 meters. BUUUUT, most fast light weapons can't do much damage to you at that range.

Although you can't hurt the light significantly; they can't really hurt you either. Dumb lights will run up and get gackt.

I never feel frightened of Piranha's when I am in one of my IV4's.

That's because it can't get close lol. PIR especially because of its humanoid shape and face-timey weapons.

I wouldn't dive on an IV4 unless it had open components personally.

Sandblasting lights legs with 60+ tubes is more effective than you may realize.

I primarily play lights; I know what is and is not effective against them.
