Cubikon farming?

12/10/2015 13:59 alteran_orion#1
Hello, I'm looking for the best way to farm cubis with x1/x2+sep.
10 drones+10 havocs; 23 lf4(several lvl 7-9), aegis elite. I have diamond and heart formations but I think that I should get either drill or ring. Which one is better?

Also, any strats/configs for killing the cube? I used to sab/x2 it before, but that was way back.

Diamond, 1x CDR booster and x1 is all you need.
2x Slow configs, 500k shield each. Kamikaze is a good thing to have as it'll provide up to 400 URI bonus.

You can use ring if you want to waste ammo

@Pesho

How do I get 500k shield with shields in ship only? I have like 1 lvl3 bo2. Also, is kamikaze viable when I'm not premium?

I have all b02s level 1, do 6 in drones rest in ship, that will be enough, kami is useless without premium, paying 350 uri per rep isnt worth it.

I remember doing cubies with my FE account, you just need someone from your clan to get aegis and heal you, did it with goliath both configs on tank mod

as you can deduce, getting someone to heal you is the hardest part, once you find it's easy to do cubies, remember doing 20 in 1 night =)

what is CDR booster?

Thanks a lot, guys.

@brouhaha

I gues it is best to find a helper, but it's impossible for solo players. Thank you, though. :)

i use ring instead of diamond, in my opinion is better...i don't even have to switch configs as i kill the cubikon..i mostly use sab+x2 but i could even kill with only x2..if you have aegis, it's even better. but with aegis you can use diamond too

it is possible if you have some good ingame friends, also while defending a clan station in x-6 you may find someone who doesn't want to waste his seproms ;)

@cavaalb

Will I be able to farm with ring +x1?

@brouhaha

You're right, but bottom line is, this requires socializing in-game, which I just don't do. :)

Here we're trying to avoid wasting x2 and Sab

You can always start with ring. Just remember how much exactly your shield is with diamond. Attack the cubi with Ring formation and when your shields drop to 500k change formation to Diamond. :)

Thank you, Pesho, I'll make sure to try out the suggested strategies.
