Steam made me break up the message. I hope I missed nothing.

I threw away all of your Subterfuge Systems, though, an chose Gorgon Mine Cores (More mine buffs = better, right?) and Fragility Field, for that extra bit of hurt. It's great for finishing off bosses.

The Stealth Scanner seemed too specialized for me, so I went with another Nano Bot. Hull recharge is still hella slow, though.

And, finally, instead of Gemini Warheads (No seeker salvos, remember?) I took Empowered Mine Cores (25% more damage! How could you miss that! >:D).

I swapped the Gravector Signal for Piercing Beacons and the Recyclable Beacons for Migrating Beacons. The latter is because I find myself fighting groups of enemies way more than fighting single bosses. With bosses, Recyclable Beacons are probably better, but you can just as easily attach new ones with the Gemini Laser.

Then I exchanged the Energy Regen Module with an Energy Max Module, because I often could not replenish my whole payload with one reload. The Energy Max Module fixes that. Energy Regen should still not be an issue, as long as you don't use your Gemini Laser as the Gatling Gun it isn't.

Instead of Corrosive Beacons I took Meding Perlite, Becaues Corrosive Beacons didn't really seem useful to me.

Blackthorns are awesome. This build is indeed completely OP, at least on runner difficulty. On The Pool... well, it *does* make things easier :D

I have tweaked it a bit, though.

I swapped the Chronodrive and the All Stop System with an Afterburner Efficiency and an Overthrust module, because a) I felt I don't have enough mobility, b) I don't use Time Leevee and c) well, I never really use the All Stop System, either.

Instead of the Shield Scrambler I use the Perilium Phase plating. With this build you barely leave enemies standing, anyway, so I'd rather focus on not taking damage.

Even though I use the Nova Macro, I considered going with Surge.

Because my trigger finger wants something to do and the whole build is very indirect at dealing damage and marking targets, I swapped the Gemini Seeker Salvo for a Gemini Laser. I felt this was one of my single biggest improvements with this ship.
