(edit: atm i dropped solo and in 2 man sq total 68 ship bps, 20 drone bps(FINALLY),6 scout patterns,7sniper patterns, 1 halo RF (cq bp)= 3 full days of playing)

>its actually painfull doing events always in vega because of annoying chat,lag,and limited tech
ENJOY (if ya can cause its tedious going for the drone bps)
-dont worry about getting the ship its just something for colectors its not so good all other ships are better + since ship bps drop 5 to 1 drone bp ratio (edit: in end it seems to b more like 3,5:1) u probably get it for free from drone hunters in the endphase if ya ask nicely

-event starts on lyris its the special mision(return of the gamma - bambas)1st part is to kill some larger pumpkin heads(3x3waves if ya solo it)til 75% mission is done then it continues to kalabesh where u kill some smaller pumpkin heads (4x3waves if ya solo)
-most used ship by all is the rare vega storm which also seems to b best for the job(i tried the other ships too like shock but found it not so eficient and practical) but the event is quite EASY (i find tht good) and its my opinion can b done in any vega ship ofc with armours its easier and a better equipped ship will just cut down the time in which u do the mission.

1st PART(lyris) bambas (these may randomly drop rare patterns got sniper and scout so far;edit :just got a CQ bp -halo RF too) have fast shields very long AB and agrobombs (occasionaly) fly to marked area shoot each 1x and DONT follow them as u will just scare them further from ur location and make ur job killing them harder.u can guide where they run to by shooting from the oposite side ud want them to run too.its best u choose they run into a dead end.WAIT for their AB to run out and proceed killing 1 by 1.
with storm use aim computer shoot 1x(or more if not vega blaster)= lower the shield and then rocket (after a while u learn the rithm in which they use the shields as to not waste the larger rocket damage on the shields)and finish killing each.
if ur equipment is low u wont b able kill all 3 before aim computer runs out = their AB will refresh..then just b patient and repeat.

2ndPART(kalabesh)bambas have blasters,fast shields and rockets attack a crashed ship defended by a guy Adam Korvus(in a ship looks like the one u get from reward bps) theres again 3 waves of enemy;sometimes bambas and adam korvus annoyingly are under the crashed ship ,u can use ur targets list.
again u can pull away and shoot 1 at a time usually the hp of adam korvus is oversufficient(they are easy to kite).
at end wreckage containers appear to shoot for bps;sometimes the wreckage appears annoyingly under the crashed ship so u need aim well or tab through targets maybe (randomly either ship bp or drone bp ..drop ratio is very bad for the drone bp..its like 5 ship bps for 1 drone bp)

if i missed something knock urselves out and add...

-i had a try with a shockship on lyris, and stunned the bamba just before it would fire it´s aggrobomb. -beside the lag, it worked out fine:)

on a sidenote:
someone asked in vega (noob chat): "whats the best ship to use for the event?"
i asked back: "did ya see all those rare storms in orbit? i wonder why?!"

if u read carefully i tried shock too but its not optimal...u have 1 stun and theres 3 bambas + the stun is too short compared to its AB making it useless. also if ya have the right equipment u dont care about 1 lousy aggrobomb which is very rarely fired (at least when i killem)
ur best options are doing max damage fast and maneuvering them into walls if they run ..but with my tactic they dont run unless u dont follow instructions and go off and chase/approach them while they have AB activated and go off like ping pong balls.
after u tap them 1x with blaster if ya wait they AB away but tend to come bk to spawn location...making them finish their AB in a tighter group so u dont have fly long way after u kill 1 and wanna kill the next makes it possible to kill all 3 during 1 of their AB CD intervals.
feel free to test and find the right rithm for ur individual equipment.

They are like detonators, they blow up when below 25% hp. If you hadn't noticed they disappear after blowing up.

-i don´t doubt your tactics wraith, this thread is good:)
-i was just experimenting with the mission, and will try again with a storm.
-i got the drone, (witch are useful;) and i´m not especially interested in the ship.

-but there is more, as i can understand?

-ps, i always read carefully;)

i dint notice such for me.. for me all i can say random aggrobombs abd they dont dissapear but ill try keep an eye out ..i know for certain i lower them to almost no HP left and they shield and not explode like detos.

Hello

i was 1st to get this noob ship and i tell you that i made all Missions in SHOCK ship ..Speed Aquators kick ass whereas ur rockets has 12sec cooldown ..1stun kills 1 mob .. and 1 afterburner on follow kills the 2nd mob and by the time 2nd mob is dead stun is back up.

If you have Vega Venom Rockets ..u DONT HAVE SPLASH...only with Sirius Ancient Rockets you got splash.

The ship could have other skill than taunt but they wanted to make fun of us giving us Taunt on a 100k GOLD Storm. ( I pity those that thought its a parsec and bought it. )

Fastest ship i think its SHOCK ship ..but it all depends on weapons.

before i write stuff i try it out and i dont make things up...
(for example fyi i tried the event with a simple noob storm WITHOUT extra armours and just max BLUE VEGA BPs even if i have better ships...and worked just fine)
and ur data on shock ship usage to solo cant b very accurate.. i have said before their AB is waay longer than ur stun effect, also its waay longer than ur own AB.

in principle i couldnt care less which ship u use or feel confortable in but the amount of rare storms u see in orbit of lyris speak for themselves. feel free use even phoenix...(if u read very careful u will see i mentioned u can use other vega ship; and yes i even tried the 5 cryonite phoenix)
i just wrote the guide to HELP out, not for glory,to show off or to start silly arguments...
