Re: Help
You have to kill all crew except one guy in laser (second from the left) in phase one.
Phase 1:
- TP 2 best fighters to rocket room to kill it asap (max dmg counts so trained Human will be better than plain Rockman)
- cloak to dodge first salvo of rockets
- there will be no second salvo, your away team should take out rocket room by now
- proceed to do same with ion and beam
- you can now power shields down to 3 bubbles, boss can't touch you now
- take as much time you need, watch out to not deal too much dmg to the hull
- kill all crew at the main deck (that's difficult as they will heal). Use bombs at their medbay to shut it down and kill the ones being healed.
To survive drone surge in next phase, cloak lvl2-3 and/or shields lvl4 and good engines will help greatly.
You will need skilled shields operator, too. Grind shield xp as early as possible by the on-off trick.
- before jumping switch all missiles and crystals to other weapons (they'll have def drones)
- tp one team to the rocket room
- tp as much ppl as you can to the drone room (anyone except Engis. There's no longer any opposition on board)
- depower weapons and max out shields and engines when you see the surge warning
- use cloak to dodge the surge (wait to the last moment, after drones appear) and/or the missiles, whatever comes first
- don't fire lasers/ions under cloak (unless you have stealth weapons aug)
- bomb their shields and/or move the drone room team to shields (after they've finished the drone room - that means their attack drones get disabled)
- kill the boss as fast as you can (because you can't stop drone surge )
In my plays, shields lvl 8 and evade 45% means that surge usually does 0-5 dmg, what is easily survivable. Unless they'll catch you right after ion or laser took your shields down to 1 - that's insta-death. So I tend to save cloak, and only start cloaking when my shields are dangerously low. That's a lot of pausing there. (be warned that cloaking too late, with 0 shields does nothing, the beam drones will still hit)
Surge itself or lasers itself are both not dangerous. It's when they happen together they kill you.
