==Description==
==Description==
The '''Eradicator''' is the most powerful ship ever in terms of sheer damage output and can easily tear though anything that dares oppose it. It also comes with extreme maneuverability and high damage resistance, both of which increase its threat level significantly. It shares some visual likeness with the [[Prototype X-2]] and is generally built in the style of an Alien ship, but with red and yellow coloring as opposed to the classic neon green.

==Behavior==
The '''Eradicator''' is not known to spawn naturally, so it is only a threat when purposely spawned by admins, or [[Rcouret]]. It likely behaves similarly to other Alien ships, targeting ships that approach it within a certain range or those that actively target it first. Once locked onto a target, it will either maintain a steady distance or chase after a warping target, attacking it until the target is destroyed or becomes untargetable (either through despawning or safe docking).
The Eradicator is the NPC counterpart to the [[Prototype X-2]]. It spawns in round 6 and 7 of the [[Kneall Stronghold]].

It never stops firing if it’s turrets have line of sight, since all turrets usually get recharged around 1 second of firing, meaning it is extremely hard to tank against.

If you see the eradicator looking at you, warp. It has decimating [[Spinals]] and is not worth tanking in even the most powerful [[ships]]. Try to warp out as fast as you can as when the eradicators target you, usually the rest of the [[aliens]] will do the same, and smaller [[aliens]] will often warp to you,so you'll need some extra health to try and tank the swarm. This is also very helpful for the rest of your fleet as the eradicators will still be looking at you even if you are out of range ensuring that the player fleet can get a lot of damage off without having to worry about the [[Eradicator]]. Note that they won't look at you permanently, instead they'll looks at you for around 4 seconds.
