AX Combat #2
26 May 2021Da9mrd
After a few more rounds in the AX Conflict Zone I still don't get how to deal with these swarms.On the last sortie I did notice a couple of commanders using Anaconda's, so on my return to the station for a well deserved rest I called for my Corvette, on it's arrival I stripped the Krait and updated the Corvette for AX combat, left the class 3 Beam and the rest were a mix or Guardian and AX weapons, increased the hull protection and set off to test it out.
First impressions were good, I can take a lot more hits before the shields drop, hull appears to be stronger but taking a little more time to destroy the scouts, they wont stop moving. Interceptors are still outside my skill capability, though the Anaconda's I'd seen were doing this, presume I'm going to need a lot more practice, these swarms were being a pain, tried to keep clear and am getting better at avoiding them now but inevitably they will get me to a point where I have to call it a day and
On the whole I think for my first couple of days in AX combat I didn't do to bad, didn't see the rebuy screen, which is always good and I think I have found a role for my Krait, I will retire my Corvette from AX combat and re-role it back to Heavily Armed Trader/NPC Combat.
