## Combat and Strategy

In general, sheenites feature a variety of strange movement items - with many dumbfire weapons to match.

For Primary Weapons, sheenites feature a variety of "Chevron"-based weaponry, all of which deal solid Laser Damage and apply Blinded to targets. Chevron weapons are typically spammy, but trivial to avoid due to their lower speed. Players should take care to avoid being flanked and spammed by multiple sheenites, or use items like Projectile Repulse Field or Hard Light Barrier to block the dumbfire spam.

For Secondary Weapons, sheenites have a variety of weaponry with unique movement patterns:

* Sheenite Returner and variants are higher-damage dumbfire weapons that slow down and reverse direction over time, possibly catching ships on their return.
* Sheenite Hexagon and variants move in an incremental angle-locked pattern, creating a tough-to-navigate web of projectiles.
* Sheenite Scaler Beam is a unique Beam that has a long reach, and fires more quickly the closer the target is to the user. Players should take care to not get too close to prevent high DPS and to prevent a buildup of Slow Down that the scaler beam applies.

For Utilities, sheenites primarily feature dogfighting-based movement items:

* Sheenite Jump Forward and other variants allow sheenites to make short, quick teleports to approach targets and avoid incoming projectiles.
* Sheenite Quick Turn variants allow sheenites to quickly aim spam at enemies, preventing said enemies from flanking them easily.

For Proximity Weapons, sheenites are able to create a ring of chevrons via the Sheenite Orbital Chevron Ring - players should take care to avoid CQC while the ring is activated, or suffer high damage and have long durations of blinded applied to them.

For Large Weapons, sheenite mega saucers have access to array variants of the returner and hexagon - allowing them to spontaneously create spam in a large area around them. Players should be wary of these arrays and expect mega saucers to deploy them when in close proximity.

For Augmentations, sheenites are able to use a variety of augs that apply Drift in order to move strangely and avoid incoming projectiles. They also have access to the Sheenite Locking Booster, which is capable of extending their Locking angle temporarily, as well as help them see through the Nebulae of Sheenland. Sheenite mega saucers have access to the Sheenite Chevron Turret, which allows them to generate even more spam towards enemies at close range.

In general, sheenites are highly vulnerable to long-range guided weapons, such as Stinger Torpedoes, as well as build that can block a lot of damage, such as those with Barriers. Sheenite mega saucers, being massive targets, are quite easy to barrage from afar with players' weapons of choice - and their above-average mass makes them quite vulnerable to Radiation Damage.

## Notes

* More info about the respective NPR in general can be found on the Sheenites page and the Sheenites category page.
* It can be difficult to discern the direction of a sheenite saucer due to their radial symmetry. One such method of determining direction is by viewing their ship arrow on the Radar.
