Ever since the alien race called the [[Thargoid]] became prosperous again in 3303, human civilization has been in desperate need of [[commander]]s to help repel it. The stakes of this type of battle are high, requiring special weapons and knowledge of special tactics to fight them. Despite the benefits, the battle with the Thargoids was an exciting experience for the surviving pilots.

=== Alternative way: Cold Orbitting ===
Cold orbiting is a technique used mainly with small and medium ships to avoid damage from the Interceptor’s main cannon. Cold Orbiting relies upon using heatsinks to stay cold while moving in an orbiting motion around the interceptor, a Thargoid cannot hit you with their main gun when: You are moving perpendicular to the Thargoid’s facing direction with sufficient speed and your ship’s effective heat is below 20% ([[Heatsink Launcher|Heatsinks]], [[Thermal Vent Beam]] or [[Silent Running]]). Cold orbiting can be used in different phases of the fight, while waiting for a shield to drop, cold orbiting can be maintained with a Thermal Vent Beam. During a Gauss attack run you will require constant heatsinks to avoid going above 20% heat.
 
==Destroying a Titan==
To destroy a Thargoid Titan, make sure to keep your ship cold to avoid various heat sources found in the Maelstroms. Open your [[Galaxy Map]] to locate a Thargoid Titan, you will see a red tornado icon on systems with Thargoid Maelstroms. Then plot a route to a system with Thargoid Maelstroms. Once arrived, as you proceed to the system, you will receive an [[Interdiction]] from Thargoids. The further you proceed, the more Interdiction you will receive.
 
Once you arrived at the Maelstrom, your team beacon will be disrupted by the Maelstrom and your FSD will fail as soon as you arrived in approximately 100 kilometers range. The destination marker will be disrupted, making the marker shows from place to place. You will receive caustic damage when you enter the Maelstrom, so the use of Caustic Sink Launcher is advised.
 
Set your throttle to maximum if essential and start your journey from the start to the centre of the Maelstroms. Make sure to use a Caustic Sink Launcher as you proceed and a Repair or Decontamination Limpet if your ship take enough damage. If your ship is above 20% heat, it is ill-advised to approach the Thargoid-like object named [[Thargoid Caustic Generator]], as it will explode when your ship being close to it. When you see a shutdown-like field, activate the Thargoid Pulse Neutraliser and - remember to deploy a Heatsink Launcher if you see your heat is raising.
 
If you see a giant Thargoid ship, it mean you has arrived. Find and target Titan's heat vent then use your Guardian Torpedo Pylon to attack it until it is exposed. When it is exposed, attack it until it is retracted again. Then fly to a nearby asteroid and hide your ship behind the asteroid, then wait until a blue wave is generated. When the wave is ended, get out of the asteroid, locate another heat vent and repeat the process until a 24 hours countdown in the info panel show.
 
When a countdown is show, it mean the Titan is in a meltdown system, in which Titan will not send any attack anymore. A large explosion will occurr each destroyed Titan, and will disrupt the FSD. An inbox message will be send to the terminator of the Titan.
