Stats / Weaknesses:

• Weakness: Thermal
• Resistances: Kinetic, Explosive

Phases:

1. Phase 1: Aggression: Thorne opens with rapid-fire kinetic attacks and moderate shield regeneration. Focus on chipping away at his shields while dodging his primary volleys.
2. Phase 2: Overload: Thorne begins charging his thermal cannon. This is your window to deal significant damage to his health pool. Use your thermal weapons and stay mobile to avoid the charged blast.
3. Phase 3: Desperation: Thorne's attacks become more erratic, with a mix of kinetic barrages and area-of-effect thermal bursts. Prioritize evasion and use any available crowd-control abilities to interrupt his attacks.

• Equip your strongest thermal weapons to counter Thorne's weakness.
• Maintain a safe distance when he begins charging his thermal cannon.
• Utilize cover whenever possible to mitigate incoming damage.
• Consider bringing support ships or abilities that can debuff Thorne's defenses or disrupt his attack patterns.
• Be patient; this is a war of attrition. Focus on survival and consistent damage output over risky, high-damage bursts.
