In Rogue Drones Harassment mission, there are 2 Supreme Drones at the last step : impossible to kill them with my apoc.
I've fitted 2 thermic hard + 1 kinetic hard + 1 med armor T2 + 1 large armor, and they do too much damages.
In another way , i cannot do enough damage with 2 siege (bane torps) and megapulse I.
Anybody has an idea to kill both of them ?

Lock both, go after the closest one and orbit him at sub-10km. He won't be able to hit you atall, and you can tank the other one.
Mega Pulse + Multifrequency + Torps + Drones. Takes about 2 minutes to kill one.

Dunno about apoc, but against one in my mega:
2x siege launchers with EM torp, 8 heavy drones: get within 45km, send in drones, whilst firing torps, then get out of his range or move fast enough for his tracking to fail. fit 2x kin 2x therm hardeners and whatever else u need to keep ur ship full of cap/armour.

I think this is your problem - loose the medium and put on another large - pref accomodation if you can. Id prob loose one of the hardners and replace with a cap relay unless your mids are stacked with cap rechargers. I find fitting a 100mn II Afterburner good for this mission as you can catch the supreme drones up and keep in multifrequency range. Once your in within 15km or so they go down quite easy.

this mission is so easy in an apoc
use 8 megapulse
4 cap rechargers in mids
2 large reps, 2 thermal, 1 kinetic hardener, 2 cap relays
of course 2 accoms are reccomended
I can tank them both and shoot forever :/
just fly directly at whichever one is closest, launch drones and melt it in seconds
by the time the 2nd one gets remotely close the first will be dead

I've tried to get closer and it's way better ;-)
With ultraviolet lenses and bane torp, i've killed the closest one before coming at 20km range.
It's just a little bit hard to tank with a med armor T2 + large carapace : i think it will be easier with a second carapace ;-) (not rich enough to buy large acco ).
Than u all for ur help.

raven 2thermal 1 kinetic xlcl5
13x 6 torps at first
reload
13x 6 torps at second
laugh
in some missions there r also 2 sentries
send torps on sentries
13x 6 torps at one
reload
13x 6 torps at second
laugh
with cap and shield skills at lvl5 no need to get close, use nos, drones or extra guns
second strategy - they have attack range 65km i think so keep outside and send all the torps u have i launchers and i should be enough to kill it {good for mission with 3 of them at once)
sp same with apoc - fit for 70km range and maximum damage and you should be safe - no shame in refitting ship before getting into last stage, better than loosing ship :)

4 cap rechargers, 2 large armor repairs, 2 thermal hardeners, 2 kinetic hardeners, 1 cap relay, 6 guns, 2 Siege launchers and I use inferno torps.
You can easily tank both of them long enough to get in a close orbit of one of them to avoid his damage.
I swear I don't know why people even worry about the supreme drones I have never had a problem with them, well actually I had one problem once, I was using a raven and I stopped firing torps thinking i had enough headed his way, but i didn't

Those drones have 75% resistence on all damage types according eve-i. Doesn't matter which damage type you chose, just go for maximal DPS without weakening your tank past the breaking point. What tips the damage high enough for me a 6 x heavy drones and 1 damage mod.
Tracking on those big boys won't be a problem. whenever they show up, consider going back to dock and switching out your mega pulses for a higher damage weapon.

oh it does matter what damage type you use...
it matters ALOT
even though they are listed with 75% resistance across the board the bane torps do the greatest damage.
speculating its got something to do with "base armor damage" listed for each ammo type...

Yep, i can confirm that. Initially i was usuing infernos (basically 'cos i ran off 100,000 of 'em by mistake) and hits where 219 armour damage per torp. Thanks to Ravenal's post i tried out banes and am getting 289 per torp
Thanks for the info Ravenal.

aye a couple of supreme drone parasites arnt all that bad, but in a level 5 complex there was a room with 4 or 5 or them, and some other supreme drone, a supreme drone worker i think - he was nasty :)
anyways!
Yes! get in close and they cant touch you. go for as much damage as you can (they really do thank well) explosive is best. Or try for the ranged approach -but i dont know if gun boats can do enough damage when out of their range ~65kms. (the SDWorker still hit my raven quite well at 75kms btw)
Bite me....for i taste good :)
