Just a little rant...
I have been chasing this feking thing over, well, its gotta be near 300KM now, firing every laser, and every torp at it that I have (I even used the 6 drones in my bay... yep, im that desperate)... and for Some god forsaken reason, its managing to tank it.
Now im not sure if the idea with this was to make some sort of invinci-tanked NPC thingy, but its beginning to **** me off now. If anyone knows how to get rid of one of these fekers quickly (and not in a Raven...) can u PLEASE tell me...
Ps. Im using a tachyon beam laser, 3 mega beams, a mega pulse, Paradise Cuise and Bane Torps. (Lasers have multi's in em)

The mammoth is weak to kinetic damage. It has 60% em, 80% thermal and 70% explosive resist on the shield and only 50% Kinetic. So the best option would be to use Juggernaut torpedoes to kill it.

7 x 425mm Railguns II fitted in Megathron with Thorium as ammo, and you at optimal range (70 km). Use the last High slot for a small defender missiles launcher if you fear missiles. And the Mammoth is dead in less than 2 minutes.
Of course, depending on your skills.

6 Mega Pulse + 2 Sieges + 6 Drones = Dead Mammoth.
Make sure to use the most damaging ammo though.

I killed the Mordus Mammoth in my raven with 6 Siege launchers with juggs and only had 1 damage mod in my lows.

Edited by: Jim Steele on 21/04/2005 14:04:28 As you are using an apoc and dont get to chose damage type ammo, may i reccomend you use your shortest range, highest damage guns.. i.e. megapulse with m/f at ~12k and jugg torps.
If that fails just use a noob lvl4 mission ship aka "raven"

I use my Tempest fitted with 6x800mm (EMP) and 2xCruise Missiles (Paradise) launcher. And no problem. I reload the guns before engaging and one time during the engagement and he is dead.
Did it with my Raven too. 6 Siege loaded with Mjolnir, chasing him... Try to stay at 30km max with a Raven. Closer is better.

he prolly was there, but at the next grid where you dragged him to 500 km away, should have bm'd where you were last.

How about going back to the station, putting all damage mods in the low slots, and 7 tachs, 1 rocket launcher with defenders in the high slots ? You shouldn't have any problem taking out all his torps with the defenders, and with that setup, he might be dead by the time the first torps reach you anyway.

Now I remember when I lost out on 800 fusion thrusters when their price was 90-100k pu when I ran out of juggernaughts and I failed to break his tank :(
However, last night I went in with drones and 2 mjolnir 2 jug 1 bane 1 inferno torp set up and pretty much swamped him, I even had the cheek to reload halfway through.
So to me I think the mammoth is getting easier.

The Mammoth was insane, I got one of those my very first L4 mission.
I was in a Tempest, 4 1400s and four torpedo launchers. I'd wear down his shields almost to armour, and then have to reload. By the time the reload was done his shields were back to full. And the jerk was running away!
Man, was I EVER getting frustrated!
Eventually I ran back to base, and loaded up with a cargo bay packed full of Titanium Sabot and Juggernauts. Warped in and let go.
He was JUST breaking my shields when I finally managed to wear through his armour. But, at least the howitzers kept his shields down so that the torpedoes could do the rest.
He finally popped. 150km away from the nice grouping of cans I had, too. He did it just to spite me, I'm sure of it.

I usually just torpedo my way through this mission until I arrive to the Mammoth. Rather than waste torpedoes and time on him, I just warp back to the station and get my back up Armaggedon with megapulses and MFs, plus lots of heavy drones. I warp back in, this time, less than 15km from the mission point and engage the Mammoth. He's usually down pretty soon. The Mammoth fires Jugs, so I have two kinetic hardeners to shrug off the damage. _______________________________________________ "Is it me or the bad guys just getting totally pathetic?"---Clover, Totally Spies, "Hope is wasted on the Hopeless."---Mandy, The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy.
