haha they are tracking too so you can't get away from them which is why I lost so many times.Wolfy wrote:Barbaries & Dwarg masters. Especially dwarg masters.
I paid good money for this carbide carapace, and it isn't ion effect immune! >.<
EMP stacks too, making it extra annoying. Especially since tons of those Dwarg projectiles tend to hit you all at once.
Ah yes, and salvagers.
Enemies you love to hate.

My least favorite enemy, by far, is the Sapiens Plague-class gunship. They may be easy to take down, but they have a nasty habit of sneaking up on me, and it only takes one hit from their waste cannon and I have to abort whatever I was doing and run screaming and crying to the nearest commonwealth station for decon.
The Sung defence walls used to be my least favorite, until I found their one weakness; there is a small gap in between each segment, big enough to accomidate a particle beam or missile. All it takes is a long range weapon and some lining up, and the explosion of the fortress will probably wipe them out.
I can't stand the Ventari, for obvious reasons.
I used to massively fear the Huari, with their deadly death-ships of death, until I realised that they weren't enemies at all...
I would list EI2000 freighters here, but they aren't enemies. The back-stabbing little traitors have "accidentally" killed their escort (i.e. me) more times than Phoboses have killed me deliberately.
I also HATE Corsairs. They are simply proof that space pirates are noobs.

Around the Charon system, the Corsairs also have Drake-class missile ships for friends. >.>Ttech wrote:Drako Slyith wrote:Personally, I love the corsairs. It drives my ship kill count through the roof.
Around Charon they have rather good loot too if you don't nuke them.
Which, BTW have *loads* of NAMI missiles on board if you can destroy them!

Looting stuff, when something just starts shooting at me. WTF shields down this fast??? I kill the damned bugger, then i try to make a jump with the Transpace Jumpdrive... WTF???????????????? Permanent damage to your stuff WTF???
1.Ventari. DIE, you sons of nomads!
2.Those DAMN salvager nomads. For stealing MY loot!!! THEEEY MUUUST PAAAAY!!!!!!!
3.Sung slavers, of course.
4.Phobos-class dreadnought, for obvious reasons...
5.Ranx Gunships.
6.Iocrym Sentinels. For destroying those innocent stations. And for their "Carbon Aerogel" armor.
7.Kobol Gunships.
8.Corsairs.
9.The Sapiens, and their almighty "purity". I would rather say "impurity".

BTW, is there any mod around that makes nomads easy to shoot?
Because there isn't any kind of mod like that on Xelerus.

My top most hated enemy? hm...
Gotta be Xenophobe worldships. by far. all those ion lancers...
even if you're level 10, they are still a massive threat.

If Transcendence was made in 3D, I would die of Happiness.

What, no one mentioned those damned Charon frigates?! I absolutely HATE those because in vanilla you can't kill more than two to complete the rest of the escorting missions. They are the ones that usually kept me away from perfect score .
Looks like you hate everyone, dude!Harbringer wrote:I just HATEHATEHATEHATEHATEHATE the Ventari, for obvious reasons.

I have to say that I don't think the Ventauri permanently damage your stuff in 1.05. It just "ionize" it, and after a few minutes it is fixed.

It's still the Ventari! Though I managed to kick their lily @$$s I still hate them especially when their fort is next to Kobol or Ares Forts. They're soooo grrrr!

If you happen to find one in the same system as a Black Market Shipyard, then you can farm the ventauri, and make a TON of money. i.e. I got 900000 in one system in roughly 20 minutes (real-life time)
