KASE. By far. Here's how it went:
(Aero = Aeronaut@aeronuat)
We come in and the two of us start attacking the tactical cube. It goes down in reasonable time and I blow up once, but that's normal. I fly back and forth between the two sides killing probes, while Aero is releasing the cubes to deal with them first. Then I notice that an npc ship he spawned (which I named USS Beamscort) is slowly beating down the generators on one side. It manages to kill a second one and now two cubes are out. They get pulled together and somehow Aero soloes them both (I'm still running back and forth for probes). USS Beamscort continues and eventually gets to the transformer, so I figure it'll be occupied for quite a while. Aero finishes off all four cubes and starts on a transformer.
I see an explosion on the right side. Turns out that Beamscort actually destroyed the whole thing. Of course, then it goes suicidal by attacking the gate. Aero destroys a second transformer, there's three probes coming from each side, then he destroys a third and fourth, and finally the right gate. We both go and destroy the spawn of spheres and blast away at the gate. I'm constantly shooting spawns, and Aero stopped to attack spheres when they came up. We blow the gate aaaaand...
Donatra. The actual mission seemed like a distant memory from long ago after that battle.
30 minutes of the two of us blasting away at her, I'm destroyed a lot and Aero is sometimes, we're basically wearing her down only on bleedthrough. At some points she mysteriously locks onto one of the other people in the match (who is sitting 30km away), but for the most part we're taking the hits. After a long and painful battle she blows up.
Yep. Here's our escort three pack. I will most likely be getting this if the stats are good.

Ahh, I remember that Khitomer Accord Space Elite. Donatra, would not stop chasing me. Next time I am using something with a cloak.

When there is a 2 man going on. USE a cloaking ship.

Death is OP, please nerf. I BLAME KURLAND FOR THIS!
And now I am being affected by the Cannot slot Boff bug! But "It's working as intended".
EDIT:
However it is on my Cloaking vessel so I am not that concerned bout it.

I like using my cloak! During that 2-man KASE run, there were times when I was (litterally) only 2km away from Donatra! (:eek:) The match was tedious to watch......especially the Donatra part. For a long time, she kept healing faster that Vop and Aero could attack. I am still flabbergasted that they ended up kicking her TRIBBLE successfully.

So there is going to be a 2 man ISE, so hurry up and get into the game so you can watch when it happens. It looks like the Doc and Voporak are going to be running the 2 man.

I watched it fully and provided the odd hull/shield heal ever now and then. Was funny to watch the Tac Cube fly to where I had cloaked after it had locked onto me. ISE, in my honest opinion, is the easiest Space STF due to the fact you cannot outright fail it like KASE and CSE. The only thing you can fail in ISE is the Optional. However, we did set some limits on the 2 man, and they were as follows:
If the Nanite Spheres healed the Transformer at all, it was a failure and we all leave.
if it got too long in it, we would write it off as a failure and leave.
Luckily those two never happened. as the Transformers were killed before the Nanites got to it.

It was a week or two ago I think, but one time the game put me into an ISE pug already long gone and nobody was left in the match and a transformer was swamped with spheres and there was the other side which had nothing done to it yet, here's what I did below.
I just let the nanite spheres gather without concern of time, all four of them till they were orbiting the transformer, then I nuked the two regular spheres since they were hostile but the nanites were not. Then I wore down all four of the nanite spheres till down to like 10% using my plasma torp bleed-through and fires and then blew them all fast as I could at same time with my torps and mines only B'rel. Once they were gone I believe I had like 30 secs or so before the spheres would respawn in the gate, more than enough for me alone to blow the transformer, repeated same strategy on other side.
I nearly won this all alone, I combined plasma mines and torps with carefully timed hull buffs when I had to expose myself to the tac cubes torps for that brief moment when enhanced cloak had to be lowered. I managed after a long time to get it down to 4%, but then I screwed up and got snared by a tractor beam -_-. But nonetheless a completely one man solo run of ISE is entirely possible as I proved there, not bad for a sci in a plasma torp and mines only B'rel hehe!

There's a quarry near me named the Vulcan Rock Quarry.
XD.
Not nearly as hard as KASE. It only took like 30 minutes, thankfully.

Wow, I posted a comment on that when it was at 10, now it's at 88, about 30 minutes later.
5 fore weapons. KDF gets nothing, of course. If we don't get a Ferasan Detrix Bird-of-Prey with 5 fore weapons within a month, RAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!!!!!!
Meh, it'll probably be nerfed.

Of course, those darned PvPers will find some way to nerf it......just when us pure STFers finally get a ship that helps us. :mad:
