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.

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.

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.

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