Hacked teleporter

[Tristin]

Just experienced on rebel flagship battle where I mind controlled enemy ship pilot, and it teleported to my ship, while being mind controlled. I was confused what's going on, and to realized my Teleporter was hacked... LOL.

Yeah, I had same happened to me awhile ago.
I was also confused for a moment and amused for minute or two.

MC + Teleport is actually an interesting strategy. Just MC an enemy (like said pilot), then teleport the dude to your ship where he can then be pounded into dust by the crew when the MC wears off. It works well if you don't have a boarding team.

During the fight with the flagship, be sure to do this in the first or second phase. The third phase flagship is equipped with a teleporter so this could be used to counter the MC + Teleport strategy.

That is bad advice.

If I have teleporter I am teleporting to RF beam room and destroying it provided I cant kill it in one volley.
And if I have MC phase 3 is not a problem even if I have only 6 Engi crew.

I never said it was good advice, just that it was an interesting strategy. There are far more efficient ways to dispatch the flagship, of course. The MC + Teleport strategy is just different and actually does work.

I did a Lanius ship run with a crew of just Lanius and no air using this strategy and it was hilarious to watch the flagship crew suffocate one-by-one on MY ship. I didn't even have to go fight them that time.

is RF flagship? why would you destroy beam room first? i thought missile room was generally the top priority

Because I play on hard and have teleporter in this scenario.
