After that, teleport into the drone control and proceed to destroy every other system (except the oxygen). At the very beginning, teleport your crew into the triple missile launcher and destroy it. If you've managed to kill the ship's crew in the first phase, this phase will be much easier. Note: destroying the ship's drone system will not prevent the drone swarm from occuring. This situation can be helped by a cloaking system and high evasion. However, the most damage occurs when the Flagship has a power surge, swarming you with Anti-Ship drones and Beam drones. It will also try to pester you with Boarding drones (about 5 in total), but having a Defence drone greatly helps with this, since it will shoot them down before they reach the ship. At the beginning of the battle, it will automatically deploy a Defence drone Mk.I, a Beam drone and a combat drone (all mk 1).

This is arguably the hardest phase of the three.Дuring this phase, the Flagship will mainly focus on using drones to do damage. Now that the ion weapon, cloaking, and the door control are gone, the ship redirects its power to the drones. It therefore loses its door control, cloaking, and the triple ion. It is recommended to leave only the laser gunner alive, since he won't be able to repair the systems, will remain on the ship during all phases, will keep the AI dormant and, if you have a good enough shield and evasion, will eventually stop being a threat.ДЄt the end of Phase 1, once you have done enough damage, the Flagship will jump away, leaving its left side behind. However, if you kill all the crew, an AI will take over - and damaged systems will be passively repaired. Since all three missiles are fired at once, it is difficult for Defence Drones to deal with all of them.Д«ecause the weapon rooms aren't connected to the rest of the ship, once you destroy the systems inside (and kill the crew member), they cannot be repaired.

The triple missile launcher is probably the most dangerous weapon the flagship has, so it is advised to have cloaking and/or high evasion. The Flagship's weapons are as follows: triple heavy ion, triple heavy laser, triple missile launcher, and a beam. Each weapon fires three times, except for the beam. The Flagship has every system installed and 4 powerful weapons. Encountered in Sector 8, the final sector.Weapons capable of getting through 4 layer shields.The Rebel Flagship is the final boss encountered in Sector 8. If you happen to confront this ship with the Stealth Ship, the best strategy is to get out of there as fast as possible. A curious loadout for the rigger consists of a small beam weapon and a beam drone, making it impossible for said Rigger to destroy a shielded ship. The rigger can use every drone in the game, except hull repair, and will use Mark.II drones later on in the game. Damaging a system will make the Rigger reroute power to a third drone, if it has one. It can have up to 3 drones online at the same time, allthough it will usually not have the power for a third.

The Rigger will always have a drone system. The rebel rigger is one of the most common enemies in FTL.
