Torpedoes on fighters will rip NPCs apart. All you have to do is engine kill, turn around, wait a few seconds, then joust 'em. Firing your torp from a bit of a distance and, as you pass them and they start to turn,t he torp blasts 'em to pieces. Took me through the SP campaign.

I can't say I've had many problems with npcs either, at least fighters. In my Armored Transport, they're nothing, and they seem to die fairly well when I'm in an Eagle or Collector, too.
Though they do seem much harder when you're in a low level type ship compared to the vanilla version.

I think both the NPCs regen. and cruise disrupting abilities should either be tweaked (so they don't spam them) or be removed all together. Maybe you can leave the regen. ability on higher level NPCs (as long as they don't spam them!) so then the newer players don't get destroyed by level 3 Liberty Rogues).
Either that or decrease the number of NPCs that are spawned because, as Tenacity said, I HATE fighting off a swarm of NPCs whenever I jump to another system (for example jumping from Omicron Gamma to Theta, you usually get something like 6 BH NPCs attacking you, and if you stay and fight them another 6 show up, and if you try to run you will get CDed 8 times over even if you hold down the counter measure button).

Apologies, my LF and VHF cannot seem to mount them.

' Wrote:My order pilot, in a talon VHF with 6 nomad guns, has an extremely difficult time even taking down one bounty hunter NPC's shields due to their regen and my low energy capacity. It's pretty much out of the question to fight the 6+ NPC nomads or bounty hunters that usually spawn around toledo.
It does need fixing. I hate having to fight off swarms of NPC's every time I jump, especially when there's players to deal with as well.
' Wrote:One word: Supernova.YES!
' Wrote:Yea, good luck hitting a fighter with a supernova. NPC's tend to not joust.Thos BHG NPCs do. I kill tons of them with my Supernova when I'm on as Cdr. Hobbes.
