the thing with the plasma lances is that the projectiles arn't the fastest out there- so with a long range weapon, a fast ship and a decent shield you can dodge and weave and fly circles around them.FAD wrote:I've used the Mammoth 100 many times and I also know that it doesn't hold up well to plasma damage and it takes forever to regen @ 2HP per...and that's stock.Desolator wrote: Yes, and I mean stock. That's a lot of HP and you're underestimating my favorite shield.
And since Wolfy claims have had the Mammoth 25 and using the Ferian Warship mod as well, you're looking at roughly 3-4 Warships guarding and patroling the hive, not to mention the hive has a plasma weapon as well...then there's all the miners. The Warship has the standard plasma torch and the plasma lance, which has even more firepower.
I'm not underestimating the Mammoth 100 at all, it's a fine shield but it could never hold up long enough to any massive bombardment from all those Ferians equipped with plasma. And the Mammoth 25????
