#For extermination lvl 5, should I build a Hellburner, level up my Shell, or neither?

I'm trying to beat Extermination level 5, but I'm struggling with the 'use mothership' part of the Extermination challenge. I've heard Hellburner and Shell charge the mothership meter quickly, but I don't have Hellburner, and my Dread Shell is only level 1 mk1.

Current hangar: Nucleon/Quarker Hades, Jaw Mars in hangar 1, and Jaw Typhon with the Ghost skill in hangar 2. My titan is Minos (lvl 100) with 2x Cinder and Evora with maxed anticontrol/onslaught/repair-amp modules, and my second titan is Cinder/Gargantua Luchador. Should I go the Shell or Hellburner route to charge the mothership meter quickly, or should I do something else?

Note I don't have any of the good meta bots like Lynx, Nether, Imugi, Ophion, or the meta titan Rook.

hellburner only if you have it high level

#

shell is too late to upgrade unless you wanna spend gold

#

Gargantua is the better weapon for ur titan so I would use the Luchador

What level is your cinder gargantua luchador? I was able to do the first stage with that,

#

I beat first half with jaw mars into that same luchador titan build, and then on second stage I was able to solo the enemies with my emg fenrir, but I think that titan doesn’t matter second half cuz idk if you can even charge it up in time

#

If you take out the zenit and tempest bots on first half you are able to chill in your titan and the gargantua weapon charges your mothership in seconds, I reccomend a damage type ship but use whatever your charge speed % is higher leveled in if not

#

You will need some pretty tanky or high damage bots for second half, and make sure to take out the blight decay type bots first as they can do crazy damage and will mess you up

Try using the jaw typhon and luchador first half, and hades+ mars second half

#

Try it with the lvl 1 gargantua, but you may need to level it

#

Fill the hangers with bots tho,

#

Retry first half until you know what you can beat it with, then put everything else good on second half,

#

I was able to tank the second half enemies with fenrir, but my fenrir take over 2 mil damage to kill, so it may be better to use the hades and play chicken with it by only showing yourself when shield is active

#

Another thing to note is they can’t see stealth, and they do have a max range,

#

Also, lasers do more damage,

#

And for second half kinetic weapons do a lot less damage
