Gilly's Flight School Combat Gauntlet Rotation

Community-sourced · verified for 4.10.0 · 4 sources · medium confidence

Chain higher-tier Combat Gauntlet mercenary missions around Yela using heavy combat ships equipped with Size 5 laser cannons. By rotating between Scenarios 7, 6, and 5, pilots can complete rapid wave-based combat encounters without needing ballistic restocks, capitalizing on armor deflection mechanics against enemy gunships.

Steps

  1. Fit a heavy combat vessel such as a Constellation Mk V Centaurus or Corsair with Size 5 laser cannons (such as M7A cannons) to punch through heavy armor without ammo depletion.
  2. Progress through the initial Gilly's Flight School Combat Gauntlet mercenary contracts (Scenarios 1 through 4) to unlock higher tiers.
  3. Accept Combat Gauntlet - Scenario #7 from the Mercenary tab and quantum travel to the assigned asteroid location.
  4. Engage the enemy Hammerhead and escort fighters, using sustained fire on the rear engines and structural weak points.
  5. Upon completion, immediately accept Scenario #6 and Scenario #5 to maintain continuous combat uptime.
  6. Cycle back to Scenario #7 once its cooldown expires, or insert Scenario #4 if higher tiers are delayed in repopulating.

Risks

  • Collisions with asteroid debris during combat maneuvering.
  • Weapon capacitor drain leaving the ship temporarily vulnerable to focus fire.
  • Potential armor penetration or turret disablement if shields drop under concentrated fire.
