In Part 6 of “The Idris Experience,” the host examines the vulnerabilities of the Idris ship by conducting bombing runs and torpedo tests, revealing that it can be significantly damaged when targeted at critical components. The crew discovers that despite the Idris’s formidable design, it is more susceptible to attacks on a planet and can be effectively rendered ineffective with well-placed strikes.
In Part 6 of “The Idris Experience,” the host explores the vulnerabilities of the Idris ship, likening its weaknesses to Achilles’ heel. While previous parts of the series highlighted the Idris’s formidable power, this segment focuses on identifying and testing its weaknesses in various scenarios. The video features gameplay where the crew engages in combat with the Idris, demonstrating how it can be effectively targeted and damaged despite its impressive capabilities.
The crew sets up a bombing run on the Idris, with one member providing a spectator’s view while others prepare to drop bombs. They discuss strategies for maximizing impact, including targeting specific components like the engine and power plant. As the bombs are dropped, they observe the effects on the ship, noting how one bomb can significantly damage the Idris, particularly when it strikes critical areas. The crew realizes that the ship is more vulnerable on a planet than in space, highlighting the importance of strategic positioning.
Throughout the testing, the crew experiences various outcomes from their bombing attempts, including some successful hits that disable the Idris’s engines and power systems. They assess the damage and the implications of their attacks, noting that the blast radius from the bombs can affect crew members inside the ship. The video showcases the balance between the Idris’s strength and its vulnerabilities, with the team discussing how to exploit these weaknesses during combat.
The host also conducts a torpedo test, aiming to strike the Idris’s reactor. However, they encounter technical difficulties with the torpedo system, leading to a manual delivery method for testing the ship’s defenses. Ultimately, they discover that a single torpedo can cripple the Idris, demonstrating its susceptibility to targeted attacks. Despite the ship’s advanced design, the crew finds that it can be rendered ineffective with well-placed strikes.
In the concluding segments, the team inspects the damage to the Idris, particularly in the engine room and reactor areas. They determine that while some components may appear intact, the ship is effectively disabled. The crew reflects on the ease with which the Idris can be boarded and stolen, citing instances of mutiny among NPCs on the bridge. Overall, the video emphasizes the importance of understanding the Idris’s weaknesses to effectively counter its strengths in gameplay.
