Titans - time to be destroyed - stretch to Monday am after the Thursday tick

[Mrc_NorthEast]

Hi Fdev,

So that more people can participate, please add HP to the Titans once 'compromised', so that they last until Monday am, following the Thursday tick. Seems like the Titans right now are done by early Saturday am or just after. Alot more people, who have M-F day jobs, could participate by making attack runs over the weekend, if that were available.

I believe you know how many people make attack runs. You probably know the avg approx damage from everyone involved in taking a Titan down. Please add HP, while leaving the 2 million bonds required for the extras, and the $$$ payouts, just add more HP to each heart of the Titans, so that it doesn't 'overheat/get blown up' until Monday am.

Thanks

I have a M-F day job and can easily invest the 30 minutes it takes to get in, get 2 mil, get out, quit game after work.

It's a bit harder if you travel for work. My circumstances mean I'm nowhere near a gaming machine for extended periods throughout the week. I'll normally keep an eye on the forums and grind against the higher resistance earlier in the week if I feel I won't be available Thu-Sat. This was one of my concerns about the recent changes to Titans being in a binary indestructible/vulnerable state based on the Thursday tick. I'll likely try a few attack runs later today to see how feasible 2M now is.

With the change in 18.06 to make Titan vulnerability just an on/off switch at or below 3 controls, rather than working on some sort of gradual curve, it may be that they've already done something like this, since there hasn't been a Titan killed since. I expect we'll find out in a couple of weeks.

A quick 2M run on a Sunday will give you a chance of the decals at least, if it is destroyed by (the next) Saturday.
Also another quick (1/2 hour to 1 hour) run on either Tues or Wed will give you another week (up to the next Mon or Tues) in which if it gets destroyed you will still get you Decals.

I would urge anyone to try this, as I am pretty sure FD like as many people as possible see it destroyed (on a Sat) or the meltdown (on a Sun).
Anyway, more people will see it (the destruction and/or meltdown) on these particular days, rather than e.g. 3am UST on a Wednesday.

If you want to do it the quickest, just get to the Titan and do runs with EAXMR's until you die for rebuy and redeploy at last port/FC, until you get the 2M.
Also, don't waste any time repairing in the asteroid field after taking damage, just go in again and again until death - much quicker.
Otherwise you spend half the time of each run, exiting the Titan space and then jumping back just to repair/rearm.

Thank you Fdev, if you made any changes for Indra. $$$ is good. Time to kill is good, as we are on heart 4 on Sunday am, here in the US. Not sure if you made changes or if Holiday weekend in the US, or northern hemisphere summer has people out touching grass, but I like it
