AX T10 Defender vs Cyclop - 9 AX Multi-cannons

Elite: Dangerous
Bringing The Defender to what it was designed for - fighting Thargoid interceptors.

[@muricanman5802]

@@MrHedgehog69 the biggest problem ive seen is that it is outclassed in just about every stat field by the other ships in its class. Honestly the best build i can think of is either a missle based or a rail based build. You wont be able to out turn anything and you wont be able to outrun anything so if you have a merger just boost in the opposing direction of the enemy and FA off before firing on the enemy as they get closer.

[@Misfit_1-5]

@@stratiosastero6880 A lot of people do/have done it in Krait MK II, it's the best ship for beginners in AX combat. After that, it's recommended to learn to use the Alliance Chieftain without shields. As for the Mamba, I'm a bit lazy to search for an answer, but I'd be willing to bet it has been done more than once. Also the Belluga, has been done as well. There's even a speedrun record for a Medusa kill in a Belluga in 3 minutes 15 seconds (here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWfdhoZ9mKmlbqc )

It's more or less a damage indicator, although, as somebody pointed out, your shield strength and hull integrity and all that stuff are separate numbers and his over all percentage didn't move much but he was actually hit really hard during this fight. He did have hull breaches and overheating issues but the ships also have lots of self-repair functions and he could very well have been repairing the damage as quick as he was receiving it. It was kind of an oversimplification. I do play the game but I'm terrible at surviving in combat and would never be able to fight a thargoid and win like he did.

[@davidslaughter8806]

@@JS-rv3et he was using a LOT of weaponry at once and the high damage weapons tend to build up a lot of heat very fast and the ships can dump their heat and if you have a high-end heat sink you can actually get the cockpit to freeze over like that pretty easily.

For anyone new to Elite Dangerous, unfortunately the epic tunes featured in this video are not in-game (although the in-game OST & sound design are amazing), the tracks used in this video are: 0:15 - 1:59 Final Boss by Santiago Chaparro 2:00 - 6:01 Deorc Decuple by FormantX (not sure but MatveichX may have mixed it up a bit) All in all, epic video, great sound editing/timing, and most dramatic Cyclops kill I've ever witnessed!
