Threat 5 non human signal source

I take it all of you experiencing these attacks are voluntarily going into the threat 5 USS. Is anyone getting Hyperdicted / Interdicted and then attacked?
 
I saw on in close system, a none human signal. I dropped out, and their it was....... it turned on me made an angry noise.... and came after me.

My asp can boost to 400, I couldn't low wake out as I was mass locked by the thargoid.

I kept boosting and got away

Mine was, I dropped in.... I wasn't interdicted

Yes mine was. I dropped in

Planet 6 - ammonia world - Federal cap ship and strike group under attack - Thargoids on scene

I went fa of and boosted round the wrecks to keep out of aggro range- think it was aware of me - not sure - got this crappy screenshot of him "looting" the feds before it warped out.

Ok, don't know about shooting them , but I can outun "Tharglets" - last USS I was in I delibarately went in close while he was "looting" the fed ship - he launched a swarm and defn aggroed on me, I did a very fast FA off about turn and boosted and jinked like a maniac , he want back to what he was doing - the "Tharglets" stayed in a swarm about him till he warped away.
 
In the Python's current config I'm hitting 440 and was easily outsripping them - shields holding well. Can't get a decent target lock but FA off confuses the "swarm", pretty sure with fixed and dumbfires I might be able to take one out.

Avoided combat, thargoid scoops escaped pods, then leaves.
 
Handed in a pile of stuff at new search and rescue agent at the Oracle - nice to feel those escape pods are being looked after now :)
 
It got mad at me when I launched a research limpet at it, managed to survive in asp explorer until limpet finished then Thargoid unleashed all hell and rebuy screen.
Ouchy
 
Don't have founders and haven't found research limpets, Annie is nearly ready to get out there now

Bringing 3x double tap c3 fixed frags to see if I can flak some tharglets.

Though I was hoping for a friendly solution, fingers crossed we get that down the line. Maybe the hyperdiction ones can be friendly who knows
 
Im sorry to say but thats it? How could they kill a Farragut Battle Cruiser with that damage output? Im very dissappointed!

I scooped up the escape pod that it was scanning.

It was NOT best pleased. Escaped (along with my wingman - my Dad) with 60% Hull.
 
Found a Threat Level 5 in HIP 16378 - just wreckage of ships in eerie green mist. Not sign of Thargoids. Did find damaged escape pod and prototype tech.
 
Pleased that pack hounds are locking not just on main ship - but on Tharglets - tried triple class 3 plasma's on the mothership - no major damage that I could see - think I'll concentrate on speed and taking out the Tharglets (I want to scoop one of those dammit !).
As you can see from Beni's post above they can do hull damage through shields - some variant of phasing sequence no doubt, so be wary.
