↖ Introduction to the universe of illuminate threats
Super earth’s high command is on turmoil with the resurgence of illuminate's illuminating new threats. with the arrival of mother ships, it is a race against time to counter strategize. With that being a goal, i want to analyze the capabilities off Stingray, Fleshmobs and Crescent Overseers while figuring out the best recommended armory for swift counteraction.
↖ Stingray: The Aerial Menace

The Stingray is an airborne plasma strafing vehicle like our own Eagle One. Still, with all of its intimidating features, the Stingray has weaknesses that can be taken advantage of. Anti-tank weapons should be avoided due to limited firepower and the medium Stingray armor penetrating value. Instead, it is better to use the Wasp, outclassing the Stingray by three to four shots track elimination. Also, weapons of medium and heavy armor penetration can focus fire on the Stingray's engine during the strafing maneuvers with good effect.
↖ Fleshmobs: The Robust Ground Force

Flesh mob units are very difficult to eliminate after sustaining damages, presenting challenge after challenge. These units appear unarmored, however, high DPS is needed to break through them. Work by the heavy machine gun is efficient and can be amplified when directed towards the legs, a known weak point. Of three quarter-full magazine, the Flesh Mob can be fully disabled with premium fire autocannon with flack rounds, explosive weaponry. The erupter and scorcher are weaker against it, but still useful.
↖ Crescent Overseer: The Armored Artillery

Like all overseers, crescent overseers share health characteristics with they pose a threat at a ranged distance. They are equipped with light torso armor and medium armor on their heads. They can be dealt with precision headshot weapons such as the dead eyee, senator, and autocannon. Targeting the legs with the stallwart is also a valid strategy.
↖ Conclusion: Strategic Recommendations
This is the Chalenge Blue emerging the new Illuminate foes closing towards the The Doomsday clock, it needs new strategies. For me, the Wasp, with supplies, will altertail resist. Heavy Machine guns with scorcher incendiary and autocannon can serve the type of large enemies where I call myself their specialist destroyer. While fighting focus on fire pressure output controlled armoring supplied panne. Focus during restock.
