The Decimator is an AI Kneall boss ship. Template:Ship Infobox Template

Description

The Decimator is a large, powerful Alien ship that can be extremely dangerous if not handled carefully. This monstrosity of a Dreadnought has AA guns, making it well-equipped at destroying small and large targets alike. Though it deals immense damage towards both shield and hull, it is generally better at damaging hull, as most of its weapons are railguns, contains 8 Huge Torpedoes with a 200-second interval, and 8 Large Cannons.

Strategy

This ship's firepower leans more on hull damage, so use a shield-based ship such as the Judgement, or a tank such as the Prometheus.

There is a large weak spot behind the ship where little firepower (or no firepower against small ships) is at use. A powerful and agile capital ship such as the Leviathan can exploit this weakness to deal heavy damage to a Decimator, while a small ship such as the Aeaphiel can exploit this weakness without getting hit if the Decimator is undefended.

You may also try brute-forcing the kill, but in order to do that, you would need a ship with incredible firepower and health, such as a Supercapital.

Luring it to a starbase can work, but even maxed out starbases struggle to take down a Decimator, especially due to the 200 second interval Huge Torpedoes.

There is a humongous weakness in it's code, which is that it normally goes in your opposite direction while you attack it. this means that it blocks all of it's turrets except 2 small cannons in the back. ( In fact, the Obliterator can kill it without being hulled.)

It spawns every 120 minutes. (Spawns even in 1 player servers and VIP servers) - TESTED AND CONFIRMED 2/8/2022

Loot

The wreck of a Decimator contains 550 Alien Parts and 8 Plasma Batteries.
