Thargoid Solo Kill Imperial Courier (with Rearm) Kiting

It feels like 4 hardpoints are just more than enough to do it with a few misses and 3 hardpoints are just not enough when getting a perfect run. If the hearts could be taken down before the thargoid goes back into its stable state then it would probably be possible. It will take a better shot than me.
Aye - if I got a perfect shot each time then the 4 would prob just do it - I think we might be getting a multicannon with AX style damage from the Aegis CG running just now - if that's mounted instead of the rockets (as I believe we can only have 4 experimental at a time - even if different types) it might be better ammo wise - be good if it went on class 1 slots as well for the smaller ships out there.
Yeah definitely. It's easy to solo it on the FAS with 4 hard points. That's in another one of my vids.
I have a feeling that with multis being added we can welcome the age of thargoid farming mere days after the God mode was switched off.
Fairly confident that all but the absolute worst pilots will find themselves having goid for breakfast, lunch and dinner when the mcannons drop.
I hope, probably in vain, that frontier will fix the reverski and leave some challenge in these thargoids or give us bigger deadlier versions.
Guys, flying backwards and shooting it without it manouvering wreaks of an unintended bug (or gameplay Frontier didn't forsee) - taking Thargoids out whilst flying backwards while it is following you like a total automaton just does not make sense at all - I expect them to take a look at this Monday morning and make changes.
If not, then the Thargoids are even more daft than some of the other AI ships in this game.
Killing them like this isn't normal - it just can't be.

I think in their effort to make their flying unique, they forgot some things. Obviously they didn't just copy and paste the current AI flying routine. I'm sure it'll get fixed. I was half joking the other day when I said an Eagle would be able to take one out like you used to be able to do to Anacondas. I guess it's not really a joke now lol.
I think this fight is "nearly" right - just needs tweaked to make Reverski not the go to tactic (though being able to dictate range should remain a valid tactic - just not quite so "cheezy" ) - that several wings can insta-gib one is actually spot on - if i'm in a large raid in WoW or similar, then single trash mobs get vaporized - hopefully we see more challenging "group" content developed as well.
I'm also hoping for a bit more variety in gear and choices - I don't want to choose between loading purely anti-thargoid or "normal" weapons - let me have hybrids that have weaknesses and strengths to consider.
Actually on that note anyone want to settle once and for all what if any damage ax do to "normal" targets ? - I've seen it claimed both as "none" and "twice" normal dumbfires - haven't shot anyone but a Thargoid lately myself so would be nice to know.
