If you manage to stay behind a Huntress, you can easily beat it with just normal turrets.
My Core Destroyer had a Light Mortar, an Inferno cannon and 6 zoner turrets. Seemed to work well, but I didn't get into many fights.

DON'T USE MISSILE TURRETS

i've heard that they dont shoot behind them before but i tried one in sp and it did, is it just that it can't shoot many turrets backwards?
also thanks for the tip i'll give that loadout a go
EDit: why no missile turrets??

Missile turrets are generally only good against fighters. You'll get more damage vs. caps if you use guns instead of missiles.

and they're not very good against fighters, pretty easy to dodge

The only reason why I'd put missile turrets on is to screw up opposing cap's aim reticle.
But that only truly works if you got cerbs for the rest of the mounts.
Personally, I would not use that setup, cause it only benefits against equally as strong capital ships.

how does it screw up their aim reticule? does it go white and target the missile like the destroyable asteroids in asteroid fields? thats the only trhing i can think of

If you fire missiles at someone in a Capital Ship using guns. Their guns target the missiles automatically for some reason.

thanks for the info... is this unavoidable? what if you were subtargeting somthing on the ship and they fired missiles, would it still switcht automatically to target the missiles?
