An end-to-end guide to fighting Thargoid Titans (plus unengineered starter build) kzfaq.infoPNLAyWakBW0?feature=share

Thanks! Just saw your own version… FYI you never want to run efficient on a thermal vent beam - cooling from TV effect relies on thermal load of the weapon the experimental is on, and efficient severely gimps the weapon for its primarily utility purpose… LongRange on TV beams pretty much always :).

@@Astyrrean well we know that now ….. ;)

Oh I’m positive you can do more than 50 if you further optimize things. Drop the beams for a medium Sirius MR and you might get to 60-65 even. But then you’d be spamming sinks like crazy. I wanted to show what this specific build could do in a real run. But if you can hit more than 50 with this very build, would love to see it! :)

@@Astyrrean I don't have access to the Python Mk II and I am not giving up my beam in that crowded space anytime soon. So far my single hit record on Haddad isn't half your take but I am practicing! Thank you for the footage, it def gives one perspective

@@Astyrrean Ok, so I have gone solo to Haddad twice now and in my Krait Mk II with pitiful FA off flying skill my PB is %20 damage to the core. Plenty of room for improvement!! LOL

Yes. The core remains exposed much longer.

Here’s the next-best-thing … An end-to-end guide to fighting Thargoid Titans (plus unengineered starter build) kzfaq.infoPNLAyWakBW0?feature=share

Nothing special really. It’s just no additional bonds are registered above 100% damage. It effectively caps the damage that can be done in a cycle.

War will continue well past August. Possibly well into next year. We’ve done 3/8 Titans, and we’ve done by far the easiest ones.

It is correct indeed. Core has 10,000hp,

@@Astyrrean Thank you.

Phasing is not total, and personally I found shields help with incidental bumping or the occasional caustic mine you maybe did not notice. Plus repair limpits don’t do any good if your cargo rack malfunctions and you lose your limpits.

We tried both hull tank and shield tank for the PMk2 - extensively. The internals of the PMk2 are just too poor for it to work well as a hull tank. Shields negate module damage entirely, and enough hull damage that you’ll be able to use all your ammo well before your hull even reaches 50% - unless something major goes wrong. Shields also aren’t “ammo limited” like limpets, and furthermore don’t lose said ammo when getting hit. Last but not least, shields allow you to use concordant sequence in a wing, which is broken OP! All in all, shields remain suboptimal for AX, and, given the choice, you should definitely go hull-tank. It’s just that on the PMk2 really doesn’t do well as a hull tank, and does particularly well as a shield tank!

Almost all modern bombers do anymore is launch missiles.

What are you talking about, even modern bombs are guided and got computers installed XD The times of purely ballistic bombs that are dropped/ejected have long since passed.

Technically that would make it an A or “attack” designation at least using the fleets nomenclature.

It’s 50% of the thermal core integrity. I think you might be thinking of Titans with much lower damage resistance (credit bonds scale off of that - the lower the damage resistance, the higher the bonds per each 1% of core damage). Hadad is presently at “extremely high” (the second-highest after “maximum”.)

@@Astyrrean Exactly. You left brained people and spread-sheetedness amaze us right brainers. Integration of different concepts and disparate processes is likely a myth.
