About to Get Behemoth Biters

[20spike12]

What should I do to prep because i'm not sure one or 2 layers of laser turrets will cut it
I have maxed laser speed and dmg till I can launch rockets. So im just wondering what I should do for prep

2 rows of lasers with max dmg and dps will be fine. Unless you fiddled with the number of biters per wave, they will handle behemoths with minimal damage taken. I tend to use groups of 6 turrets around my big electric poles in the middle of my rails on the edges of my base. That's usually sufficient for expansion groups, and the occasional attack group (sometimes with losses). So a solid line 2-deep of laser turrets will be fine.

And if you want to add something to your defenses because you feel uneasy, flamethrower turrets will make that setup overkill.

Can confirm, flamethrower turrets turn the game into ez mode, any large group is decimated in seconds and stragglers are taken out by other turrets

flame is cheap and overkill !

This is an example of what flamethrowers can do.

and this is the blue print I created as my defense hard point. Ammo and oil are delivered to central storage areas along each wall. Oil is pumped to the flame throwers from that central storage area and ammo is delivered from that drop point by logistic bots.

When the sum of the ammo in the wired chests drop below 500 the gates in that section go up and lock all the biters and spitters into compartments that they can't escape from then a timer starts. 12 seconds after the ammo chests have 500 ammo again the gates drop leaving nothing but some flame and corpses.
