Hi, i'm rank 232, at what point do these NPCs become "easy" as-in 5-6 Shots to kill ?

I do about 200-500 damage to the assassins, at my rank they have 2K def and 4.5K hull, my attack is 3x it's defence but regardless, 15 shots unto death. Should i use drannik saboteurs on these? i only use sabs on fab plants and queens. I also realized that damage caps for scaled NPCs depend on your rank, so at what rank and how much attack do i need for them to die in < 6 shots

Analyzers are easier, about 11 shots? i always skip them but they are significantly more powerful than Sha'din Shockfighters and RSL Tech collectors. My attack is 4x its defence. There defence, HP and attack remains constant despite your rank, so when does this become a < 6 shot kill?

( i have no intention to do the RSL mission : i did it once but i realized it long... very very long , brute force hacking what did i expect? )

.

HAHAHAHAHA

I prefer 0 shots in the anals myself....

oops fixed, thought it sounded vaguely obscene

Assassins are amoung my most love npc's

Finish the mission to get rid of analyzers, no need to have them in your BT

analyzers don't grow in strength, I can kill them in 6 (minimum) shots unbuffed, plus they are a great source of research. Just stick with them and get stronger.

assassins technically can be killed in 6 shots starting at rank 400, it is really bloody hard to get enough attack to kill them in min shots. I am about 5k short for my rank. But they do become easier as you will grow stronger faster than them.

Its better the anaizers , the RP mods dropped of the mission after it's done will get u much more RP then killing them things will.

unless for some reason you don't do the first 9 completions (no reason not to) you get more than 8 hrs from each kill.
