Quickly explaining why progress on Titan Indra has been so much slower (at least compared to Titan Hadad)

If the DCOH database has enough data, it would be interesting to see the curve of total Indra heart percantage over time.

As I write DCOH is predicting 10 mins. I think people were just a bit busy with US Independence day and critically important real-life elections in UK and France.

I think the things you mentioned are a major factor, but also they did just adjust the resistances by making it a flat totally vulnerable or totally resistant state. I don't think it's much of a stretch to think that they also adjusted what those resistances mean, and I personally think they did make totally vulnerable a bit more resistant than it was. Everything you mentioned is still relevant, but I also think when they made the resistance change they did intentionally make it take more rounds on the core to kill a heart - and I think they overcorrected from what they probably intended. Still, you're not wrong. I've gotten my 400 Arx from all five of the first hearts, and having done this on four previous titans... it is getting pretty repetitive and stale. While the glaives that spawn make it a bit more challenging, that's also resulted in folks avoiding winging up for it and just preferring to run solo, thinking that more people in an instance spawns more enemies - which seems to have some merit. The result is a solo, repetitive experience with small rewards beyond the initial 2mil skin/kit. After the recent changes to the Arx store... 400 Arx per heart just isn't going to be that much of a draw anymore. Ultimately, I agree with you and the data backs you up, but I also think they tweaked the resistance.

Do you have any data to back that thought though? The bonds reward is exactly the same as Titan Hadad when it was completely vulnerable. And the war progression (heart progression) per-damage-done appears to be the same too…
@enrogae
@enrogae Ай бұрын
@@Astyrrean Admittedly, I do not - it's just a feeling after hundreds of rounds against the titan. I concur that the bond rewards are exactly the same as Hadad, but I don't have a solid way to measure war progression per-damage-done and I haven't seen any solid conclusive data presented for that either (but am open to it). I'm also curious how DCOH calculates player focus vs a titan, since they aren't in the journal files reported to EDDN as kills the way destroying a scout or interceptor are. As I said, however, the data we do have backs you up - all I really have is a gut feeling.

@@mikewaterfield3599 Titan vent/core runs depends more on cold stealth than the ability to fight Thargoids. Granted, guardian shard cannons will be much more effective at killing Thargoids in Titan space but that defeats the purpose unless all you want to do is fight Thargoids in Titan space ;)

Elite Dangerous has seen a massive drop in players over the summer so thats also why. I dont mind though, its my first titan fight and between the bugs and the oddities, i am still having a decent enough time. The sudden spike in the amount of npc in solo inside the titan instance made it impossible to progress for a while following the patch though, but it seems to have been hotfixed so its back to enjoying the bombing runs and the 200 arx rewards each time a heart goes down. Frontier need to drastically change something though as player count keept dropping each month

I didn't have issues with FPS at all even in instances with ~13 other players. Then I had one instance with 5 others and they all had unique laser beam colors, and were all firing a much more visual explosive weapons. My fps would drop to sub-10 while shooting at the core with that instance

I've never bothered with thargoid material farming. I'm disappointed about the fact that mat farming was still needed to apply the improvement to modules. FDEV made such a big deal about this, and it ended up being more grind than it's worth. If they didn't want to give the engineering modification away completely free, then at most have a community goal to make the engineering mods available for a price without farming.

I want to agree but honestly I'm really only seeing three components as being annoying. -data cores from banshees -weapon parts -hardened shell fragment thingy Honestly these three components made me real angry but it's not really a big deal it just forces you to go play around the Titan and spire sights.

Ya, the fun is starting to wear off. I hope the remaining three Titans bug off (heh) after this, since it doesn't make sense for the Thargoids to stick around when Humanity has soundly defeated a majority of their hive ships.

Is there a quick way (or site) to find ground bases currently being under attack, without flying there, just to see it's odyssey only base or allerady empty with no bugs ( i'm still on horizon) I'm lousy pilot but had few medusas on these bases with my mod shard chally (1heart, dock repair, repeat🤣) And it's great material farming.

It seems like if you want to do that type of combat you need to do it right at the beginning of the server reset. I noticed that on day one there was alert systems everywhere but the problem is literally only 1% of commanders can fight thyroids and open space so the latter 99% are like you and use that method on the surface site which defeats the thyroid invasion instantly. So look for the yellow dot systems when you select thyroid war and the system map but only look immediately after a reset.
