assimilators have 2, select torps or staying away. and the staying away doesnt work because they can just drop more assimilators (like mines), staying away from mines usually doesnt work either but they have many other counters.
Tractor Beam Repulsars push them out of drain range. Possibly out of radiation damage.
You could also just ignore them, since the radiation damage probably doesn't even outpace shield regeneration.
Of course, if you're using mines, heavy torpedoes, or FAW....well, I guess you're SOL.
Quantums, photons, transphasics, plasmas, chronitons will all destroy acetone assimilators. Using Torp Spread, you don't even have to pay attention to do it.
What is the problem?

High yield torpedo can take them out. Tractor beam repulsars can push them out of radiation range.
Sorry they ruin your tricobalt mine + dispersal pattern: beta spam strategy.
Everything has a counter, adapt or move the battle elsewhere.
right because everytome you move you hit into another aa because 1 guy can put out 2. that means in a 5 man team you have a total of 10 out. how do you sugest moving around the map? should be you cant put out another 1 till the one you have out got blown up

Do you really come across a 5 man team with everyone equipping Aceton Assimilators? Aceton Assimilators (if it comes from the same player) does not stack the drain (don't know if multiple players can stack the drain, but I doubt it). The only thing that does stack is the radiation damage it emits, which is very low damage and can be ignored (unless you hit it with an energy weapon). If you're hitting them with energy weapons, then a) why are you targeting them with energy weapons?, or b) that's your fault for using FAW or CSV.
As for moving around the map, I don't sit still when I fight. I'm not within an Assimilator's range for long.
If it's really that much of a problem, TBR will easily push them out of drain range.
If your entire strategy to win revolves around mines, then that's your problem to figure out a counter.
