4 destroyers cant kill a single Xenon K.

[Thargoid]

As the topic title says. 3 behemots 1 phoenix cant kill it. It goes through them all one by one and survives. They all got main battery guns. A combination of flaks and beam turrets.

Nonsense.

I am planning to turn all the turrets to plasma. But even then. Shouldnt 4 destroyers able to kill a single K?

[Thargoid]

And by `can kill` you mean it not always happen? You mean that I have to reload the game at least 10 times before I figure out how?

To be honest I am losing my will to live after each death. I would rather go play something else. 3 minute wait for each reload is too much.

[Thargoid]

Okay that looks interesting. And what are the turrets equpped with? Doesnt look like flak or beam weapons. Is that plasma?

[Thargoid]

Okay lets try. I am not sure I can save my unbuilt station before I rearm my behemoth with L plasma. Or can I? The K is right on top of my station once I reload the game. I got maybe 1 or 2 minutes before it gets through it.

[Thargoid]

The L turrets I think are beam turrets. Do I have a chance? Or should I forgot about the station alltogether?

Target the K and use home/end keys to cycle the surface elements. Line up the main guns and strip the K's turrets as fast as possible. Make liberal use of the pause key to stop time and pick your targets.

I got only half way through its shields. And it killed my behemoth. it spared the station though. Reloading again now. I will use another behemot that might have better weapons.

[Thargoid]

Yes I will try to strip its weapons first. And it looks like the behemoth weapons outrange the weapons that K have. So I will use backwards movement to gain more time.

In your case + 1L plasma turrent wont make any difference. Your only chance is manually drive your destroyer and deal with K.

Btw, 1 Behemoth + 3 Rattlesnakes dont have problems with Xenon K. Used them as gate keepers for a long time. They lost to a Xenon I though.
I'm pretty sure nothing will change if you'll use Odysseus instead. All M Flak + L plasma ofc.

[Thargoid]

Nope. It killed me still. Could only take half of its shields and got dead. I used my cruise engines to get behind it. It turned to face me. It gave me maybe 15 seconds more shooting time at most. I spent entire ammunition of frontal weapons on it and it managed to take out only half of it shields. Judging by how slow it is to take down its hull I do not think my ship can survive even with plasma frontal weapons on it.

In short, I have no intention of dyying 10 times for this game.

Uninstalled.

Thanks all for help.

[Thargoid]

The home page up down keys on notebook only changed the targeted ship. Not surface elements. Besides it always tries to face me with its front. So practically I cant get to its engines to begin with. Flying closer with Cerberus is suicide anyway. I can survive by staying on top of it. But I cant target engines from there. And if I move to side to take out the engine, K kills my Cerberus as well.

[Thargoid]

Is there any difficulity level change possible in this game from settings? Maybe my difficulity level makes enemy ships too strong for behemoth attack?

[Thargoid]

Managed to take out one of graviton turrets.

[Thargoid]

Clicked the wrong key and game screen went to resize. Now wait 100000 hours for it to finish.

[Thargoid]

It killed an AI controlled behemoth of mine.

[Thargoid]

Managed to kill it. After frontal graviton turrets were gone it was pretty much helpless.

My mistake was trying to enlist other destroyers to engage in coordinated attack on it at once with me. The K took them out. Before I started shooting at it. I am reloading now to face with it alone. I will keep other destroyers away since they are pretty much useless against K.
