* Roles: Front Row, Against Ships, and High Hit Rate
* Advantage: Energy Weapons, evasion engine upgrades
* Disadvantage: Front Row
* Game description: The integrated pulse cannon destroyer has high survivability with a complement of energy weapons. A large pulse turret is fitted at the bow of the ship with a large mechanical aiming system, enabling it to cause devastating damage to all types of targets. It is also equipped with a small anti-aircraft pulse cannon system.

The Taurus Pulse Cannon Destroyer is a front line damage dealing ship. The Taurus deals immense damage against most ships, at the cost of being a front line ship that is often times one of the first to be shot down. The Taurus has an additional damage and cooldown upgrade which can be found on its energy system. These extra upgrades allow the Taurus to reach damage numbers rivaling that of cruisers.

## Enhancement Strategy

WORK IN PROGRESS
Enhancement is an important part of the game, it is what gives "whale" players the fleets that are so very difficult to defeat. There are different schools of thought as to what enhancements to apply, and in what order because the exact makeup of the enemy fleet can determine how effective a particular set of enhancements can be.

* Full enhancement: 118 or 124 tech points (depending on which enhancements are selected)

And at the end of it all, is the **maxed blueprint**, which has a slightly altered appearance.

### From Tamrat

He also offers alternatives:

* Take the hit point increases after the evasion increases to improve longevity, especially if they are the primary front row tanks
* PvP against players who run frigate/destroyer fleets, take the second hit rate increase instead of one of the damage increases
* Fighting city fleets, high level pirates, or players who run mainly cruisers and above, deprioritize the frigate/destroyer hit rates
