Based on that, wouldn't a good strategy be to simply turtle the big guy, let him keep refilling health, and then milking for spawn to kill? I never found the cruiser, just the eng's and they dropped things. But the bps were blue that i saw. Maybe i dedicate some time to the cruiser tomorrow.Whatever said:the only mantis that drop stuff (never got anything from other mantis) are healers that land when u bring down HP of rougue methanoid that comes out of bigger ones which come from methanoid cruiser.
It wont do - we tried it already. Once they spawn healers they dont spawn more of them when their HP is replenished (if you're to let them heal). So no, there is no endless grinding of bps once you're done with them, that's it - cruiser will spawn again in 4 hrs from the moment it's killed. Going against the cruiser solo is pure suicide. So far from what I could test with other people is that engis are best ships to do this event. You can use protect while you engage the cruiser and it will shield you from aggro blast that cruiser has as a weapon. So squad of engis will tear thru methanoids and ensure you're pretty much covered from pirates.spikefin said:Based on that, wouldn't a good strategy be to simply turtle the big guy, let him keep refilling health, and then milking for spawn to kill?

so not much pvp is going on, we have one rule. Dont shoot other clans stuff
So whats the fun in that? Podding people that are all trying to do the same thing sounds more like pilots who don't know how to PvP 1 on 1..they have to have all there clan back them up because there afraid to get podded for acting foolishly.Primeus said:Yeah big fun lol Flying in a group of 15 ppl and just shoot every red that shoots the meths lol it was allot of fun
oh you should have seen it, they broke the agreement, and shot all us off, then we came make and killed them like 5 times in a row, then they gave up and didnt come back for the next 3 bosses lolWhatever said:well that is solaria, this is Askone - the best realm.134679hun said:On solaria server we made an agreement to not shoot at eachother during the bosses ( us and our enemy clan)
