  1. Most importantly, getting #StunLock timing right allows to bypass the "caustic missile" (for hearts 2 and 4) and "shutdown field" (heart 3) special attacks.

    The tactic requires pilots to move away ~700m when / after the second heart goes down, and either stay below 15% heat or use silent running for the remainder of the fight.

    Getting the timing just right is key and takes practice. It's worth it I think, as it makes engagements much more exciting.

  6. Why bother with a Cyclops? Thanks to improved weapons, they are now insta-kills for larger ships.

    It's great for practice in inexpensive ships, goes easy on your in-game credits. And lessons learned transfer to large ships and more powerful thargoids.

    Here's a full run (shaky VR) demonstrating stun-lock. It's quite messy, clearly needs more practice - the second heart needs to go before shield comes up. Heat sinks / silent running keep the stun-lock going.

  11. So de-dusted my Diamondback Scout and went out to practice, with quite a few Rapid Unscheduled Disassemblies.
    The 2% hull situation at the beginning of this thread marks the first time I finished a Cyclops using stun lock.
    The next run went better, with a comforting 62% hull left.

  16. Before the war, #Thargoid Interceptor space ships were battled in long-running encounters, by dancing around them in circles, slowly sniping at their hearts one by one, avoiding their deadly weapons, and breaking formations everyy now and then to deal with scathing swarms of drones they'd emit. These engaging one-on-one fights would take even experienced pilots 15 minutes and more.

    But the new gear allowed for new tactics.

    Yeah, this is me, with just 2% hull left.

    You wonder how I ended up in this situation?

  26. I'm sorry, but this is like a finger trap for my brain. Do the "home of sexuals" want the 😻? Does she think they do? What is the defining characteristic of a "home of sexual"? Ma'am, please explain. Rebeca. Please.

    I know this is supposed to just be a little funny haha from @bot but my brain will not let it go. I'm losing it over here.
