Silverdrake220but it seems to be the norm any ship just seems to be able to take any ship I have apart in no short order  where I have to pound and most any thing to kill it. Any  suggestions  or help would be  so Welcome.



To be honest, an Asp should not stand a chance against a Federal Gunship. You need to be quick at deciding whether to run or fight and getting info on the target is the first priority. If you're being interdicted, select the interdicting ship before you voluntarily drop. If it's a sidewinder, blow it a away. If it's an Anaconda, run for your life.


And if it's a Wing of 8 Sideweiners, you're truly screwed.

I need to work on what class is, what as far as what to take on and what to run from. it just seems like if I am on my own its always a tough tough fight. i

I've been playing for a year and some now, and still to this day, I find that manytimes when an NPC that has interdicted me, its a brutal fight.

Couldn't you just get out of your ship and smash theirs apart like the hulk?

Hi,

Forgive me if this is in the wrong spot.

I have in my possession and "Unknown Artefact" and I don't know what to do with it. Any suggestions?

Get rid of it! It can only be use to cause trouble, and ultimately helps the Thargoids.

Well as it turns out, I decided to tinker with it a bit. I dropped out of supercruise and jettisoned it. When I did this, another ship (NPC) dropped in and Took it (no scooping) the "unkown Artefact" was gone. Poof! I assume the Npc Pilot took it with him when he Jumped. This pilot was "Clean" so I did not want to attack him. I am sad to not have the Artefact in my possesion, but happy to because it did some damage to my modules. I just wish i could have played with it a bit longer.

It's not a toy! Those things are dangerous! And Yes. It will damage your ship, it damages everything it touches. Like I said, the Thargoids sent it to scan and transmit data... And you brought it ON BOARD? Nuts!

It seems like hauling the clearly-more-powerful-than-you-are unknown artifact is exactly the boneheaded move needed to launch an Elite-themed horror story.

Hulk skills are not top knotch but I would at least like to put up a bit of a fight, at least stay alive long enough to get the hell out of Dodge
