4 straight times that thing has just buttraped me mercilessly. I beat the first incarnation without taking a single hit and yet this one just kills me in a second. I use double DEFII drones and yet i still end up with like 2 assault drones and 8 breaches in my deck simultaneously and then there's like a power surge and four thousand attack droids are on me and every single system is failing and I go from 100% oxygen to -50% in 20 seconds because of the aforementioned breaches. I try to fight the assault drones with my (maxed out) mantis dudes but HURR there's no air so I can't do anything I just don't get what tactic you're supposed to use with the boss. Even when I take out the drone control with my missiles I still get those random 5 or so drones attacking me. | ||

Which is absolutely ridiculous with extremely limited effect as far as I'm concerned. I prefer having 4 shields, 55% dodge and full weapons. I don't think I have used a single drone in my "serious" runs, ie. not playing a certain style and sticking to it. To get past phase 2 you basically have to fuck the boss up really quickly. Get his shields, then get his drone control thing. Repeatedly. Try to kill some crew in phase 1 so his repair effectiveness is lower. Try to kill more during phase 2. A big volley of lasers on a room with people repairing a module should do the trick. Also, don't forget cloak. It's a life saver. With 4 shields and 55% dodge, the power surge thing won't do anything pretty much, if you still get hit a lot, cloak and you'll be fine. | ||

With no shields i end up spending way too much on repairs tobe able to afford things. You can buy shields for 150 scraps at a store. I´ve gotten to phase 2 twice on normal but I didnt have any ion weapons, which makes phase 2 really hard. | ||

Like no matter what starting ship I use I eventually turn to a two mantis + teleporter combo. The only time this has backfired on me is when I relied on it so heavily I couldn't get past 4 shield + lvl 3 medbay the boss has. | ||

The stealth ship is really good because you can basically take zero damage for ages if you are careful, especially with the two absolutely amazing starter weapons (best in the game imho) In fact, i advocate no shields until near the end really, you should go for a weapon layout that can basically alpha strike everything Requires a bit of luck though. | ||

Whats more important is getting a bomb of some sort, it really doesn't matter what kind. Just something to nuke their shields with so your weapons can wreck everything else. I think you'll probably ditch the mini laser for a burst weapon later on since it's hard enough getting the enemy shields down Also only 3 weapon slots Even a burst laser 3 + bomb + dual laser should be good enough though. It is kinda tough dealing with 1 less slot, esp on the second stage A sys bomb makes things WAY easier | ||
