	The Hunter is a relatively weak vessel, with [[AX Multi-cannon\|enhanced AX Multi-cannons]] being sufficient to take one down. However, the Hunter will immediately start with its shield up, and will regenerate it rapidly when using lightning~~. It is quite weak to the Thargoid Seed Mines found in the vicinity of the Titan and one to two detonations within range can kill an unshielded Hunter with ease~~. The Scythe variant is even weaker and does not use shields.		The Hunter is a relatively weak vessel, with [[AX Multi-cannon\|enhanced AX Multi-cannons]] being sufficient to take one down.

	If a Scythe brings down a ship's shields, it will periodically send out Breach Drones to jettison any passengers onboard. Breach Drones can be destroyed using Point Defence Turrets or Electronic Countermeasures, but these need energy from the ship's Systems (SYS) capacitor, which may be drained from recharging shields. Deactivating the Shield Generator will free up the SYS capacitor for utilities.

A fast ship is recommended for this tactic in order to dodge taking damage as well.

	Multi-cannons are recommended over [[AX Missile Rack\|AX Missiles]] due to the Hunter's immense speed making acquiring missile lock extremely difficult.
