    Judging by your stats I can suppose that you have completed some gates, thus making you have some x2 and sab ammo. Therefore, by using those you can solo cubes even without boosters(would be advised to use the LF-4s that you possess and equip them on your aegis; would make the soloing process a bit faster and reduce the ammo consumption).
    By having boosters and seprom the process would become a lot faster and easier, that giving you more uridium in a shorter amount of time. Good luck.

    I have UFE upgrades and weapons and all designs and I wouldnt cube with any less than x2's or x3's and sabs. Its not just being able to kill a cube, but are you healthy enough to withstand an attack from an enemy and survive after the cube is gone? I guess these days though no one cares about getting killed as long as the cube dies....what has this game come too????

    I successfully solo'd a cube with x1, HP and shield almost full when I killed the cube.

    Care to explain how hp/shields were almost full ?

    Unless you had Nano points from the GG and/or ship with rep. ability, Ring formation which you might have switched to Drill or some another formation with dmg bonus, I dont see how is that even possible with x1. Unless of course you have been using the Aegis and been repairing while at the cube.

    Looking forward to your explanation !

    Cooldown Boosters and the diamond formation is glitched right now, my shields stay full when fighting npcs, doesn't work on players... weird, everybody on my server getting the same glitch, good for me ;)

    When I use Aegis - I buy x-2 boosters for cooldown.
    + x-2 boosters for:
    - shield
    - damage
    - shield
    - honour
