Shard cannon has been nerfed.

[Judgement Nut]

I heard you could destroy a Thargoid Cyclops in 10 shots with a shard cannon, but I tried it and it turns out Frontier nerfed it. This is getting annoying.

Corvette can’t have 4 large anything, 3 max

Same with the cutter.

yeah....sorry. brain fart. I only fly those ships 2.8% of the time.

Yeah, it's really odd, but the fact that Anaconda gets 3 Large is what gives it the highest DPS in the game, so it's kind of its unique feature, and yes, that does mean it beats the Corvette in Firepower.

Anaconda is OP for a multipurpuse ship to beat a warship that require very high rank in sheer firepower..

On paper it might, but I don't have much faith in the weapon convergence of that ship. It's probably granted the most theoretical DPS because most of the guns are supposed to be turrets.

Impressive and no need to target hearts or expose them using other weapons.

Yeah, in theory you can kill any Interceptor without striking hearts, if you can outDPS the regen.

Which is why So many Hydras died when the Gnosis thing happened, ton of really angry, high tier AX ships hopped out and gaussed the living ♥♥♥♥ out of them.

[Witcher]

Yeah, I managed to test 2 large plasma chargers on 3 Scouts before I left Gnosis, and found can pretty much take each out with 2-3 hits.

So can I siimilarly kill any interceptor/cyclop using the plasma chargers without a xeno scanner or target the hearts?

[Hobo Misanthropus]

Naw, need Shard Cannons to shred down a Cyclops without Hearts, and premium ammo then (Though Two Ships can do it with regular ammo)

[Witcher]

How do you get premium ammo when neither guardian nor AX weapons can be engineered?

Synthesis. The recipe is expensive, and uses thargoid vittles and guardian scraps.

[Witcher]

Found it here too - http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Synthesis. So these premium synthesis for human weapons apply to guardian ones too?

Also one would think now that we have encountered so many Thargoids and variants, the xeno scanner should no longer be required :/

Btw, are any Thargoid attacks explosive in nature as opposed to heat or kinetic?

[Hobo Misanthropus]

Thargoid attacks are Corrosive. (Or Absolute, the math is still relatively unclear)

This is why Hull and Shield values are key, disregard resistances.

No, that link doesn't include guardian weapons.

It isn't necessary. It's useful for targeting hearts, but as they are big glowing things the scanner isn't strictly necessary.

Key exception: Hydra, as the hearts are very, very small.

I wouldn't go after hydras at this stage.

OK thanks and can beam lasers or PAs expose the hearts (to make them glow)?

How many smaller hearts do they have?
