Ask Specs Anything June 22, 2016

This weeks question comes from someone that does not want me to mention them, so I will not. They just got 3 million points in the raid, and they wanted to know what to take and how to have an easier time in the monthly events.

My advice was as follows:

Hey there,

First, you want to take the Rhino, Trident, and D4-M as you have none of the more up to date missiles. You also need to finish the campaign to get Phalanx 2. The campaign you want is Hunt the nemesis, and you can complete it with maulers and missiles that you have received in previous campaigns. Or you can get two of the rhinos I am going to give you here and do it with them.

Reasoning

The fleet has the technology you have now, and it will help you in the raid going forward. You will want to aim for Siege Battery to help with defensive capabilities for the DPS ships, and you will want to swap in a Frontline Countermeasure from the FM when you get there for your CM/Tank.

This fleet should do B set targets next raid for you for some damage. Upgrades to this fleet are harriers, blades, D53-D, and even the Switchblade is useful if you take the special on the Apollo side of the tree if you have nothing else.

Also, this fleet will help you do the Assault Map targets to get fragments for upgrading other Assault hulls through the foundry.

Future thoughts

When the hull store comes around you will want to try for a better tank of course. Prime choices are Punisher and the Apollo if you can get the points.

I hope this is helpful and thank you for the question.
