The Skaal is one
of the deadliest predators that roam the southern wastes of
Kharak, and was the greatest threat to the safety of
caravans until it was deliberately hunted to the edge of
extinction. The male of the species, the Skaal Tel, is a
vicious clawed hunter with heavy scales and poison sacs that
can blind or kill an unwary opponent at a distance. Though
it masses nearly ten times that of an average humanoid, it
is still able to keep up with a warrior at full run. The
Skaal Tel hunts for its mate and cubs during the breeding
cycle and is capable of dragging its kill back to the den
from over a hundred kloms away.
This predator
is a fitting namesake for one of the deadliest vessels ever
built for the Taiidani fleet. The Skaal Tel is so massive it
mounts two parallel ion cannons and backs this up with four
heavy rail guns on two modified turrets. Second only to
Heavy Cruisers in terms of raw firepower, the Skaal Tel
Destroyer can direct a devastating amount of destructive
energy in its forward arc, and two Destroyers operating in
concert can vaporize an enemy frigate in a matter of
seconds. Yet, despite its size and armor, it can maneuver
almost as well as the much smaller frigates.
To
successfully engage a Skaal Tel, you must learn from the
warriors who hunted its namesake on ancient Kharak. Attack
in a group, from all sides, and use your fastest and most
maneuverable assets to draw the beast's attention while you
concentrate your attacks on its flanks.
