CSC Antarctica - **POSSIBLE SPOILERS**
Well, here I am in the Dantalion system and I found Antarctica. Tlaked to the captain - btw, I'm a captain too - and decided to let it go. Then, a fleet of Aquilas arrives. My doubt here is: should I let them blow it up or should I fight to save it?

fight them for a reward, but don't talk to decker if you want to keep your rank.Viper wrote:Well, here I am in the Dantalion system and I found Antarctica.

if you save it: the antarctica gives you a halo gem, very special that can more or less defeat the Iocrym(make sure you have an icx! it hurts you just as bad), but you get no armor loot.
if you destroy it: you can get the lamplighter from decker.(does anyone know if you have to had given the prototype to point juno?)
if you betray the antarcica: you get nothing.
if you let the aquilas destroy it: i don't know.

so.... idea is to grab an ion or high speed plasma weapon using titanium armor, dash in, grab any disintigrator shots on your shields, use the sphere then immediatly blow up the iocrym. then hide atop the wreck till any remaining shperes disapateBobby wrote:when used it will lower shields and and take armor down to 1 on any ship near, including yourself.

You can get two rewards
1. Gem of Sacrifice.
this gem brings your and any other nearby ship's shields down and reduces the hp of any armor to 1.
This is best used to defeat the Iocrym.
In order to get it you must save the Antarctica.
2. Lamplighter
This is the best weapon in the game. In order to get it you must be a fleet captain and have saved Point Juno.
Lamplighter is far better than the gem, but if you cant get decent weaponry until later, you'll have to get good equipment (VIII should work, IX will work, VII might work) and opt for saving the Antarctica.
Its makes me feel bad to destroy it when I realize that the Helios is possibly/probably right.
