I use an cold orca at 18-19%, fast enough for most inter-/hyperdictions with ca 570 m/s with an large enh. AX multicannon, medium nanite torpedos, medium long range thermal vent beam, Size 5 Bi-Weave with enh low power and low draw engineering and about 2500 Hull, repair and reseach limpits etc. I do everything titan wise with it and I call it the diver. As soon as I get attacked, I dive back to the asteriod belt, repair and dive back in the action again. I love it.

Nice vid :D I have tried about 6 different ships in the Titan Maelstrom and have come to the same conclusion (FDL) for the vents and the core. Maneuverability really matters to get those vents done fast and the extra utility mounts on the FDL sealed the deal for me. I saw CMDR RosaTequila hit every vent 3 times in a row yesterday in a similar FDL build. I didn't try the ECM tbh.

Indeed, the FDL turned out to be a better Titan Bomber than that (now infamous) Mamba

My current build is a Krait Mk2 “Fighter Class”, and although I don’t particularly enjoy flying it, the ship however does hold its own, so I can’t say too many negatives. Fulcon Delacy delivered my AX ship and it’s performing it’s designed role, just wish it had the speed and handling of the FDL. Just waiting out for the Python mk2, and I can foresee a good few Titans remaining when Fulcon Delacy finally brings it to market. I think it will be my dream ship…
@DvdV13372 ай бұрын
It can bomb if you want it to. The medium hardpoints are more for rail guns than any AX weapon, its holding it back in that regard. Krait mk2 and python have more firepower, #1 bomber atm is Python mkII

It is perfectly blanced build FDL just needs one extra 2 slot to fit one more modulre reinfoprcement. But you compensate with ECM to avoid caustic damage.

I used a shieldless Chieftain at Taranis but switched out to shieldless Clipper. Its much faster and agile but less tankier. I threw in 3 upgraded caustic heatsinks for a total of 21 charges. Should have me covered for the next maelstrom.

Hi! Cool video commander! One thing I'd like to point out is that electronic countermeasures don't work on thargoid missiles according to the AX wiki. Not sure if that's outdated or not, but just something to point out. Really cool vid though!

I have been out in the black, but have been itching to try some TItan attacks, if not now... then when, right? I have been looking for Titan builds and haven't found much, so thanks for posting this. As a bubble build, the FDL seems plausible... just not quite sure which ship I will go with at this point, I don't really want to try out multiple builds to be honest, so again thanks for posting this.

I wonder if 6 Bi-weave shields are a good addition (no engeneering for max speed recovery). They have recovery rate for 35 s. Big shields recover much slower and take cargo space. No need for shield booster either as we want fastest recovery. In that way we have some protection against collisions (very important) and thargoid lazers.
