How the 2 attack ARC-170 can score 7 hits with 1 primary weapon attack.

By pickirk01, in X-Wing

I'm pretty new to this so I could be way out here in left field, But... Garven Dreis has an EPT slot?

Sorry, I'm just confused and looking for someone with more experience then I to clear this up for me.

Usually, no. But there is a fancy little, seldom used droid which gives the pilot an EPT.

Wish it saw more play, but at 1 point for an upgrade slot you should already have and the cost of losing another, it isn't seen or discussed much.

Eh, for obscene single target damage I still don't think it's possible to beat Rexler killing a decimator in one attack activation.

(Cluster Missiles with Opportunist, first attack for four hits removes all shields, second attack does 3 hits drawing major explosion> major explosion> direct hit, direct hit direct hit, spends focus to flip the two major explosions drawing two more direct hits, decimator dead. Theoretically possible but vanishingly unlikely)

Quickdraw killing a decimator in a single turn comes close though, but you need perfect positioning to get all four shots on the same target.

But at that point your begging for perfect draws from the crit deck as well as perfect hits which is far less likely then just being in the right place, which has a bigger area to be able to hit forward and backwards from than I thought. I mean heck with absolute perfect situation and perfect card draw quickdraw can kill nearly 2 decimators in a single round

Yeah, and in this Ace-heavy meta, one of them just needs to live through the first round of firing to pull it off. ;)

Ahhh, R2-D6... that's my fault I did that thing when you read something 9 times and your brains sees what you think is says, not what it actually says. D'Oh! I though it had R2-D2 on the X-wing. I'm an idiot, thanks for the clarity! I'm excited to try this when the ARC's come out.
