Yeah but the Hellbore's projectile is so slow though, it misses most of the time on small targets.

But alright, I'll swap that and see how it goes.

What skills does the level 5 in the picture have btw? Elite PD changes loadout preferences a lot, and I want to know if you have impact mitigation / polarized armor / damage control combo or not.

Basically, your current loadout is more of a brick, while most people, including CapnHector here, favor heavy firepower instead. If you indeed want a brick, I'll try to come up with more specific suggestions.

Correct, it's one hell of a brick lol, can tank for days on end.

Here are the officer skills:

Again if they're not the correct choices, I'll just get another officer if I can, and dismiss this one I guess.

33
Oh man, that's indeed quite the change. I'll use it on one of them then! :D

Thank you.

Edit: So something like this?

I'm not going to pilot it so I left the Rocket Pods.

Alright guys thanks, I'll take those replies into consideration, gonna change things a bit and see how it goes.

My officer does have helmsmanship yeah. I'll retrain him into aggressive then.

Edit: But yeah I really like the HAG for some reason. Is it really this bad? What would you use? I use it as the "main" weapon on my Onslaught too. Quote on quote because the real main weapon is of course the TPC but you get the idea.

35
Well since I have 3 of them I can experiment so don't hesitate to post your stuff and I may try it.

Thanks for the reply!

Hey,

I'm using this loadout for my Dominator. I think it's the most generic you could possibly use, it's a slightly modified default variant one.

However, this loadout, even with an officer (steady)... Is just completely useless.

I always deploy at least one Onslaught during combat. I then set the Dominator to escort it. But this is what happens afterwards:

The Dominator keeps switching targets constantly, never getting any damage done, never, ever uses its Reapers, and eventually gets flanked, engines die, and it's a slow and painful death for it.

It used to work in previous versions, but something probably has changed since then. Because of this I don't deploy it anymore, my Apogee or Eagle are much better picks because at least they do something.

Not sure if it's the loadout or my orders or something else. :-\

Hey,

Another advice thread from me! Sorry for creating so many but since things changed a lot for some ships I'd rather ask here than make a mistake.

What do you think would be the best choices for built-in hullmods for this loadout?

Thanks! :)

PS: If you think I should change some stuff don't hesitate. That's my go-to loadout but it may not be optimal at all. It gets things done in combat but there's probably better.

Or through a dealer, like I got mine on this patch. :)

I already tried maxing out the ship size.

The only thing I have left now is the Military Base, but this will be for another colony, this one's full.

Your screenshots in the OP don't show priority turned on for anything. Just to be sure, you are clicking to turn it on, not just switching the displayed categories on and off? Could you give a screenshot with a bunch of hulls on priority and a preview of a typical heavy patrol?

You need to set up your standard patrol what weapons and ship will be in the patrol under the Doctrione blueprints you can mark and unmark what you like

I did that, but nothing changed.

I think I really need to upgrade the HQ but I have no room left.

42
Ah so I need to upgrade that? Well... That will be for another colony then.

I guess I'll have to do with disrupted shipments every now and then. No more room on this colony.

43
My colony is already at max size unfortunately.

44
Well now it says 0 d-mods.

So the quality is good, it's just that they're not using the ships I prioritized.

Not sure what to do here.

Edit: I remember in another run I had found a Paragon blueprint, and my fleets were using it. I had Paragons in my fleets so I know it's possible.

45
I just installed the Nanoforge. Now my ships have next to no d-mods, but still, even when prioritizing, I see no Onslaughts or Astrals. Just junk ships.
