Usage

Craft Combos


Defender Spam [DPS][Mid-End Game] Defender8

The Defender Spam combo is one of the most common combos players use. One of the reasons being the high DPS output of the Defender Craft being able to lockdown rooms. Locking down a room means making a room unrepairable because of the continuous damage being done to the room. The best rooms to target with this combo are the Anti Craft Laser and Shield Generator.


Lockdown Paired With Fire [DPS][Mid-End Game] Defender8 + Firehawk8

Lockdown Paired With Fire is another combo players use. With the added Firehawk Craft, locking down a room will be much easier. The Fire Damage from the Firehawk Craft will cause area denial on the room. The Fire will continuously damage the room and crew, preventing a full repair of the room for an extra 1-2 seconds. The most ideal launch pattern for this combo would be 1-2x Firehawk Craft and 3-4x Defender Craft.


Lockdown Paired With EMP [DPS/Support][Mid-End Game] Defender8 + Corsair8

Similarly, pairing Defenders with Corsair Craft improves lockdown ability. With a high enough level Corsair Craft, target rooms can be adequately stunned.
