The Conqueror Borg Solo Armadas introduce a new high-difficulty challenge designed for advanced players. These armadas feature new mechanics, ship requirements, and powerful buffs.

This guide explains how they work and how to prepare.

What Are Maverick Loop Solo Armadas?

Conqueror Borg Solo Armadas are new Borg-aligned Solo Armadas that serve as the primary combat challenge of the Maverick loop.

They:

  • Come in Common, Uncommon, and Rare rarities

  • Include 13 levels of difficulty

  • Are designed for Ops 55–80 players

  • Require strategic fleet composition and research progression

What Is Required to Participate?

To successfully engage these Solo Armadas, players must

  1. Have the Warp Dive Building built (gain the key by finishing the Warp Dive Mission given in the Gift Section at Ops Level 55+)

  2. Bring Three Ship Types

You must deploy:

  • 1 Interceptor

  • 1 Explorer

  • 1 Battleship

All three ship types are mandatory.

If all three ship types are not detected, the armada activates a powerful fail-safe (see “New Tech” below).

  1. Max Relevant Research Nodes

  • The new Maverick research nodes must be maxed at your target Ops level

  • These nodes act as counters to the new armada mechanic

  1. Progress in The Warp Dive Bar Building

The Warp Dive Bar building provides additional buffs against the new Conqueror Solo Armadas.

This loop is designed around strengthening and using multiple FKR ship types.

What Faction Are These Armadas?

The Maverick Loop Solo Armadas belong to the Conqueror Borg hostile Faction.

They introduce new combat behaviors and status effects.

What Are the Armada Buffs?

Depending on rarity, these armadas may have:

  • Adapt, Overcome Blast – Destroys all Player ships unless the attacking player includes one of each ship type (Explorer, Interceptor, and Battleship) and The Warp Dive Bar has been constructed. Enhanced burst damage.

  • Isolytic Damage – Increased Isolytic Damage output (All Conqueror Borg Solo Armadas).

  • Apex Barrier – Defensive protection layer (Uncommon and Rare Conqueror Borg Solo Armadas).

  • Critical Damage – Increased Critical Hit Damage (Rare Conqueror Borg Solo Armadas only).

As difficulty increases, buffs stack and become more punishing.

What Difficulty Levels Are Available?

There are 13 levels total, divided by rarity.

G5 – Common Armadas

Ops Levels 55 to 60: Adapt, Overcome + Isolytic Damage

G6 – Uncommon Armadas

Ops Levels 62 to 69: Adapt, Overcome + Isolytic Damage + Apex Barrier

G7 – Rare Armadas

Ops Levels 72 to 80: Adapt, Overcome + Isolytic Damage + Apex Barrier + Critical Hit Damage

Maverick Research

There are two types of nodes: 

Main nodes, unlocked with Maverick Periphery Intel which can be found in the Maverick Faction store, and 3 special nodes unlocked with Maverick Exclusive Periphery Intel which is only available through Offers. 

Those 3 special nodes (Glory of the Mavericks, Patrons of the Mavericks and Deeds of the Mavericks) affect the output and efficiency of the Maverick Faction Tasks. Pay special attention to the 3 “VS Conqueror Borg SA” nodes, which significantly improve combat performance against the formidable Conqueror Solo Armadas. 

Players can also access mainline value such as G5+ FKR power and G7 Cost Efficiencies.
