problem is, basickly rank 400 = dammage cap 1000 vs 250.000 to 300.000 hull

here the Darmos drone, but basickly the same with all the bralkir ships both the LM version and the 2 you can summon with the Vortov


300.000 hull vs a 1000 dammage pr hit cap = 300 cliks to kill (and 250 clicks for the bralkir)
300 clicks = 1.500 energy pr kill for Darmos drones and 250 clicks = 1.250 energy pr kill for the Bralkir

I have no problem with the energy required to kill these ships, but please 250 / 300 clicks pr kill is just a bit pointless
(and for the legion missions you have to find and kill 30 of them = 30 * 300 = 9.000 clicks)


my sugestion is simply this
increase the ranks of these NPC's to rank 2000 = a 5.000 dammage pr hit cap
and at the same time increase the energy cost to attack them to 25 energy pr attack




that way, you would still have to spendt 1.250 / 1.500 energy to kill them if you can hit the cap
but the number of clicks you would need to do would be reduced to 50 / 60 clicks for the kill

Easier said than done. There's a lot of trickle down effects involved. The least off which is the recoding to allow for a 5x attack AGAINST you at the same time.

I know Darth Flagitious

ofcourse, you should also have your own dammage cap multiplyed by 5 when you do a 25 energy attack
not trying to avoid taking dammage, just to reduce the numbers of clicks you need to do to kill them

the alternative would be a power attack option, where you with 1 click and fire off 5 or 10 attacks for 25 to 50 energy
that would be a simple loop, where you wouldnt need to modify stats
