59 DP vs 2 Remnant ordos (606 DP)

It's recommended that you speed up the video whenever you want to, or just watch it all at 2x speed. When playing it's intense, but watching it is naturally way easier. For some reason no carriers spawned, so I had no opportunities for easy prey.

I see the exploit still exists. The enemies always turn the shield towards the highest threat target. And the only thing with higher threat than the mines is a reaper torpedo. I did try to get the dev to fix this somehow but no luck.

[@scorbiot]

It isn't really an exploit and it can't really be fixed without making the AI stupid in other ways. When Alex saw a video of my escapades with Doom, he made the AI ignore mines for longer, but this meant Tessaracts would moonwalk into mines.

[@archangel8172]

@@scorbiot You can't ignore mines. Here are two ways to deal with them. Either you move out of range or if you have to go through it you point the shield at it and go through it. Otherwise if you are still in range when it is about to detonate you point the shield at it.
Overall the current strategy the AI employs is absolutely stupid. And also it only works that way with ships with Omni-shields. Because ships with fixed shields actually work well.

[@scorbiot]

Ships with frontal shields don't really have a choice how to deal with mines. Apex is difficult, but not impossible to deal with.

[@archangel8172]

@@scorbiot Apex has drones and you can spawn mines right on top of them to immediately detonate the mine and damage the ship in the process. Doom rly excels against carriers but that is besides the point.
You said frontal ships dont have a choice. But they do. You either move out of range or you go through it even if you have a frontal shield you have to make that decision.
And that decision has to be made based on some factors like:
Are you retreating? Is the mine in your path? Can you turn to face the shield to it without being destroyed? If no, then move out of range of the mine that is closest to explode.
Or if you in a neutral stance:
Are you in range of the mine? Can you move out of range in time?
A lot of conditions have to be properly made to make the AI properly react to mines.

Whats the name of that mine lanucher weapon you just used? I have been trying to look for them forever

Proximity Charge Launcher

not sure if you confuse the special ability of the doom with a mountable weapon

Too bad that doesn't work anymore since Monitors can no longer have Safety Overrides.

[@scorbiot]

It's not that bad, since Monitors ultimately turned out to be unnecessary.

[@MrKoroven]

Amazing video! Great piloting! Have you attempted to scale the doom / monitor fleet up to get some other officers on the field?

[@scorbiot]

This was an entry in a challenge to defeat Remnants with the smallest fleet possible.

[@archangel8172]

Ye, the challenge was for him to destroy the entire fleet almost alone. What he could upgrade on is his own skills. He could have used Elite combat endurance to get more Hull
