And you say jumping away is ineffective... before suggesting the Defence Drone Mk.I. That thing will block a missile with its face.
Also, I found that Defence Drones ironically cannot protect Drone Control on the Mantis B. They really just cannot shoot the drone down before it impacts with the room.


fair enough, but I personally prefer to play with the kestrel/red tail, osprey/nisos or the Carnelian.
I also like to play with the Ark Royale, which is the most OP mod you will probably ever use (aside from the big bang cruiser). I used superluminal to change the boarding drones to the boss variant, patched in CE, and wreked the boss. oh, and I also replaced the 2 man teleporter with a 4 man one.
Good Hunting!
