MobanditoI dropped into a weapons fire threat lvl 2 thinking that it would be kinda easy but to my surprise it was too Anacondas so i had to scat. thin i found an other lvl 2 drop in and it was 4 ships 1 was a Fed gunn ship. whats up with thatso what consist as a Lvl threat hate to see a 3 or 4 a six must suck.
If it's threat level 1 you normally only find 1 ship and prolly lower skilled.
I've had a threat level 2 with a three anaconda wing in it and nobody else, but since I was in a clipper and they were already foaming at the mouth I decided to take my leave. I didn't check all of their pilot ratings but 1 of them was competent. if all three were at that level I'd not survive 1v3, lmao!
Generally speaking, if it's 2v1 you can still have a good survivability as long as their rating is on the low to mid range, because they don't have much for tactical skill and you can outmaneuver them.
Last night there was a novice, it interdicted me and wanted the cargo, but I was empty so I submitted and we both scanned each other. Then he turns to leave and I follow him till I'm like 2 or 3 hundred meters from him target his power core and start firing....
His ship exploded and I didn't do any dmg to his core but he never once turned to avoid my line of fire and just let me tear up his stern. I imagine if his engines were targeted they'd prolly have been destroyed.
That's why their skill rating makes a difference.
There was another one I recall submitting to, without knowing it was a 2 man wing, at least one of them was Novice and they were both in small ships, but I had cargo and was unshielded. I just didn't want to run the risk of losing my mission haulage. so after submitting I bugged out. But while I was accelerating away they did hit me with their beams but my hull didn't seem to take any damage...
"I prolly could have turned around and wasted them" is what I was thinking at that point, but the cargo was more precious than their bounties.
