Any clue on odds for defense drone to kill hacking drone?

Postby Levgre » Wed Apr 16, 2014 4:53 pm

In 2 different battles I had the defense drone go 1 of 3, missed 1st time 1st battle, 2nd time 2nd battle.

But then against flagship stage 2, the flagship's drone shot down 8 hacking drones in a row, until I ran out of drones.

Want to get a better idea what the % is, to know if hacking can end up pretty useless vs stage 2 (unless you can distract with other projectiles). I'm pretty sure I had got the hacking drone through before in stage 2.

I don't know any numbers, but I've always played as if the enemies shoot down 100% of my missiles and "shoot 'em" style drones.

I also play as if my drones will shoot down everything as well, and get very mad at them when they fail. Which they do often. Very, very often.
