Excellent post BD. Good stuff. As you said, the scumbag you´re chasing stays your target after they decloak, as long as you don´t target another in the meantime. One addition. Use the heaviest primary possible. Tachyon cannon and Vulcan Battery are my favorites. Only takes a few hits with those to waste them. Basilisk´s shields regenerate quickly, so the more armor damage done the better when they reappear. Behold the Reign of Bruno the Questionable
Taking down Basilisks: what works for me

ive noticed something too, they seem to be marginally weaker at the back (it takes less direct blasts at the back than the front to try and get totally behind them.... also don´t under estimate ramming, tap the afterburners when they are cloaked and watch them becoe visible again. head ojn ramming works well if you can take the full on lasers, use a Wolverine and they sort of get scared themselves.

Ramming disables cloak?

Hey, if it does, then we´ve found an added benefit to using the 600kps bumpers. I think, and correct me please, that he meant waiting til the sucker decloaks and (((whoosh)))---{{{BAM}}}! No more bad guy! I do that one a lot. Behold the Reign of Bruno the Questionable

I just target them. Shoot them and when they are in front of me I launch a Screamer. It always works ---------------- Veni vidi vici
