Community Event / Creation Tutorial: How to use a Kill Warrant Scanner properly!

+++

For those who get tossed into normal space after an interdiction, or otherwise meet an immediately hostile opponent, there is also a trick to using the KWS at a more opportune time.

Make the first pass, guns blazing (after the initial passive scan is complete, of course and the opponent shows as Wanted). Then turn quickly and get on his 6, switch to the KWS and scan him. The scan takes 10 seconds, but the player needs to make sure that's not 10 seconds of him shooting at you. Once the KWS is complete, switch back to the main guns and take him out. This works best in a maneuverable ship, of course.
 
yeah, or you could get KWS to secondary fire and all your guns to primary. That's what I do with my full laser setup so I can shoot and scan ;)
