Not completely fair either - I exploit shield drop behavior and fire off center (AI always deploys shields exactly from facing to your ship). Then again, I could potentially build up hard flux up to 100% same way.
3xTL, 2xLongbow, ITU, Advanced Optics, Hardened Shields, full vents and rest into caps. That is to maximize chance vs Paragon by dropping everything unnecessary, of course more reasonable build would at least include Tac Lasers/ LRPD.
Then stick exactly outside of Needlers range while using Longbows to build up hard flux (engage -> fire sabots from your shield's edge -> regroup). At about 10-20% hard flux Paragon drops shield -> quickly go in and fire at it's edge. Retreat to vent and repeat whole process about 4 times.
This tactic would fail against a better Paragon build though. Just 2 HVDs would be enough. Or all 4 TLs, especially if combined with Advanced Optics and extra Tac Lasers.
