Description

---

Micro-rocket pod turrets are found in the Stellar Tether, guarding the second-station interior from intruders.

Appearance

---

Several sleek black turrets are arrayed before you across the walkway, the roof of the installation, and even some hover-plats floating around the walkway’s side, tethered to the station. Any chance of stealth on this mission is long gone, now, as volleys of micro-rockets lock into barrels, ready to blast you to smithereens.

Interactions

---

Rocket pods are instantly hostile towards the Captain Steele and will engage in combat upon encounter. However, it is possible to avoid a direct encounter by sneaking past them (if Steele is a smuggler) or hacking and disabling them using the codex (if Steele is a tech specialist and passes a randomized intelligence check: 25 or higher intelligence will instantly pass, below 5 intelligence will instantly fail).

Combat

---

Rocket turrets fight as a mob using ranged thermal attacks. Having an attack that can hit multiple targets is useful. They are fitted with premium shields.

Combat actions include:

• Rocket - One HEAVY physical attack (kinetic and burning damage), but has a low to-hit chance.
• Shields Up - Re-charges 50% of shields once they drop. Only once per encounter.

Resistances:

• 40% weakness to electric attacks
• 100% immunity to lust attacks

In the Stellar Tether mission, losing in combat from the rocket pods will result in death (Bad End).
