As you explore different systems and planets in Starfield, you’re going to come across spaceships and crews that aren’t happy to see you. So unhappy, in fact, that they’ll begin blasting lasers into your ship on sight. Now, you can do what any normal space flight enthusiast would do and light them up with all of your weapons until they’re in 12 pieces, but it’s both simple and inefficient. Instead, there’s a way to bring down their systems and cripple their ability to combat you. Here’s how to target a ship’s engines in Starfield.
How to Destroy the Engines of an Enemy Ship in Starfield
There are a few ways you can go about taking down an enemy ship’s engines in Starfield. The easiest way is to simply take down a ship’s shields and focus fire on its engines. This will work in some cases but can be inefficient and quite inconsistent. Trying to fire at the engines of a moving target is, naturally, a massive challenge.
