Re: How do I Destroy a Ares Phobos Class Destroyer?

Domina powers aren't a 1 - shot thing. They recharge over time, which is what makes them so OP. That said, limiting Domina powers in this way would be a very effective way to balance them. A lot of them are good enough that they'd be more than worth the effort required to unlock them even if they c...

Re: How do I Destroy a Ares Phobos Class Destroyer?

Taikon-200 is military and level 10, you cannot order it from Trading Post. (If it were possible, I might, it is the best shield in the game.) Domina powers are overpowered (and maybe unfair to the powerless NPCs), but it is certainly not cheating, if you do not care about conducts. That said, Phob...

Re: How do I Destroy a Ares Phobos Class Destroyer?

Taikon 200 isn't essential, and definitely isn't rare enough to waste a trading post on. Any late game shield is solid enough to protect you as long as you stay moving, change direction constantly, and avoid taking a direct hit from the Phobos's main gun. If you have enough credits(and, if you star...

Re: How do I Destroy a Ares Phobos Class Destroyer?

Fighting a Phobos at close range with a forward-firing weapon is possible, but difficult. With a maneuverable ship like the Wolfen, it's possible to dodge its main gun shots. With a bit of experience, it's also possible to anticipate when its turrets are about to be ready and back away. With a bit ...

Re: How do I Destroy a Ares Phobos Class Destroyer?

There are three legitimate ways(that I know of), and then an exploit. For the legit ways, they are as follows: 1. Get a high DPS weapon with WMD(you've already got that - thermo cannon +fast), and get close enough to hit the Phobos. Keep moving and rapidly changing direction to prevent the two turr...

How do I Destroy a Ares Phobos Class Destroyer?

As the title suggests I have run into one and well I die, fast. Yet I suspect that there is great stuff aboard and would like to get my hands on it as I need Rin fast to get a lovely omnidirectional Thermo cannon... anyway! Some important facts - I am playing offline (don't have the spare data) At t...

Re: What armour and weapons do I need...?

Ventari Colony is hard enemies, they have well balanced armor, powerful TeV9 blaster, and annoying ion disruptor. Try to avoid them if you found one, they can quickly kill you or at least deal heavy damage with a chance damaging devices. But if you want to kill them, Thermonuclear weapon is best to...

Re: What armour and weapons do I need...?

If you're talking about the Ventari(those large brown ships), they're definitely an interesting faction. They have well armed destroyers and settlements, but also spawn destroyers that wander around the system and attack any friendlies that they see - you'll often find quite a few dead ones near Ri...

Re: What armour and weapons do I need...?

That is great thanks... I am playing offline so not sure I can get a some of those things like the Diamond Field Crystals but I will try the armour and I think I will get the shield generator that I had before. It was fast, once upgraded and had lazier, thermo, partical, iorn and well a little bit o...

What armour and weapons do I need...?

So I have just entered had entered (now lost game) the Jiang Star system and I know from past attempts to get through to the last system that from here on in there are some really well armed baddies that kill me again and again and again. Sigh. They seem to have mostly thermo and green weapons as we...
