CCD-62 “Cicada” Drone Mk3
The CCD-19 "Cicada" Drone Mk3, or Cicada Mk3, is the final iteration of the CCD-19 “Cicada” Drone from Zone 1. In addition to its usual use of the Powerdrive buff, the ship now attacks from two cannons every turn while alternately activating heavy temporary shielding and powering itself up. The Cicada Mk 3 is always the first encounter of Zone 3.
Strategy
Attacks
The Cicada Mk3 will always attack in the order listed below, repeating once it completes each action. Note that the attack values below do not account for any of the Cicada’s additional powerdrive beyond the one it starts with, so they will steadily increase throughout the battle.
| Image | Details |
|---|---|
| Temp shield 3 from left wing, attack 2 from left cannon, attack 2 from right cannon | |
| Attack 2 from left cannon, attack 2 from right cannon, buff (Powerdrive 1) from left wing |
Evasion
Tips and Tricks
The Cicada has no way of recharging its actual shield, meaning that shooting on turns when its temp shield is down will always result in damage that sticks around.
The Cicada is very predictable, as it fires from the same two cannons without fail every turn.
