CCD-62 “Cicada” Drone Mk2
The CCD-62 "Cicada" Drone Mk2, or Cicada Mk2, is a new-and-improved version of the Cicada from Zone 1. As before, this ship quickly scales up its attacks via use of the powerdrive buff, although it now attacks much more frequently while doing so. The Cicada Mk2 is always the first encounter of Zone 2.

Evasion
Tips and Tricks
It’s often better to take early hits from the Cicada Mk2 when its attacks have not yet had the chance to outpace your shielding in order to focus on early damage or other setup strategies. Later in the fight, evasion tends to be a more effective strategy.
