You have some of the best videos of Everspace 2 out there. Thank you for your work and informative approach. A lot better than just watching ships flying around blowing stuff up.
Hi from Japan :) I already did give-up for survival in high level rift. (I cant see a goal "500%" cuz too far (lol)) But now, your good advice would be my hope !! I'll try again the rift and get Legendaries later ;) Thank you for great guid :) ありがとう！
Good guide overall. A minor suggestion for better dps: since you already got the Penumbra included, better replace the autocannon with an Umbra to get the massive buff from the set bonus. It applies to your coil gun too
My build is very similar to yours, I can easily clear 1000 lunacy rifts with it. A tip: You can go for the crit synergy, where you take all of the Crit related perks and max out on the ship's precision stat. The biggest game-changer here is to use the Exploitation perk + Web Missiles with an affixed chance of a free cast on crit. That way you are basically gaining + a 50% crit chance on every enemy you focus on. And that goes a long way, with exploding enemies on crit, reducing ult on crit, and area of damage on a crit. You don't even have to fire your web missiles ever, with the gunship's fire rate they are automatically fired constantly, and you are not losing ammo for them when that happens. Try that, it works really well!
Oh, and what I forgot to add here is that if you go for Union Eclipse set - Umbra + Penumbra (+30% dmg for 5 sec after a weapon swap) you don't care about the weapon energy capacity. You never want to fire a gun longer than 5 sec anyway. And a third weapon option for me is a Powerful Autocannon with +10% dmg for each second its fired affix.
I love my striker for lunacy500. So fast timetokill. The hardest thing is mindset, gotta abandon all self preservation thoughts and go into a murder spree mindset. Umbra+Penumbra+thermogun. High focus on firepower+percision+utility. Omni manus+visions of decay legendarys. Auto crit fire corrosion missiles(with target lock reduction)+ rockets. Recharge booster + shield that only recharges while boosting. Devices: emp(shield surge), missile defense(sustence, synergy with omni manus), teleport(scurry), corrosion injector (mercy kill, synergy with vision of decay) Perks: exit strategy (damage mitigation while moving), play it safe(synergy with corrosion and emp), crit happens(on crit damage), unyielding assault(repair armor on ult use), exploitation(50%crit on slowed enemies. Synergy with ship passive), symphony of destruction(kill with crit go boom) Critical ship passsive: target is slowed and repair armor on ult. Make sure you have at least 20% crit from percision. This jumps to 70% for whatever you target. Primary weapon is the thermo gun, preferably rapid. (Btw, you get one guaranteed at renown 5). The purpose is rapid crits to trigger crit happens and Symphony and corrosion missiles. Reason for umbra+Penumbra is damages boost. Always be boosting. Fly into enemy group, pop ULT and emp, target big boi and unleash hell. Corrosion inejctor, thermo gun, missile defense system, corrosion missiles are all going off. Lots of explosions. Everything dies. Between emo shield surge, ult armor rebuild, play it safe perk (triggered by emp and corrosion injector), and exit strategy perk you are fairly robust too. You will find yourself losing shield and armor alot, but that means it's time to dive in and fire off ult and emp again! Your ult will repair 100% armor. If you don't fully commit to being a flying angry death machine... You will die.
@Wholesome Gamer I transitioned from a bomber cause I found it too passive. The Striker is an offensive power house functioning off the idea of "you can't hurt me if your dead". I run superior hsa's on nightmare with it too. And your welcome. I got to lunacy300 without legendaries, then I got the armor. Now I can comfortably farm 500s. I have yet to get the damn sensor that boosts corrosion injector but I know once I do that that'll be another huge power jump. The big trick is timing. Recharge boosters run out fast so put an eco on it for sure. And the speedward shield is awesome here. Timing your brief pauses with no boost is key, cause soon as you aren't boosting, you loose that 25% damage mitigation. Oh, also make sure your shield has the emp on depletion. Very handy and life saving. And pick your targets. Those overseers are to be avoided. They are simply too tanky. But they are slow. The thermo doesn't do the best in terms of kinetic damage but coupled with a good corrosion missile, it's made up for wonderfully. Well that and the corrosion injector (yes they stack and go off simultaneously). Try to avoid rifts with enemies getting speed boosts and the +5% increase. Mines aren't ideal either,but the area damage is fine and the slow hull regen is fine(you out dps it easily). I typically ping pong between groups. Teleport and engage, kill one or two, then teleport to another group and go around like that.
Danke fürs Feedback :-) - Das dürfte eine Mischung aus den T4 Basisstats sein + ein paar Attributsbonis vom Booster glaube ich. Die Ausrüstung hat ja zufällige Bonis und manchmal ist bei den Boostern sowas wie +speed oder +handling dabei. Wenn mich jetzt nicht alles täuscht, ist schon ne Weile her. Wenn der DLC Montag rauskommt werde ich mich auch erstmal wieder "einfliegen müssen" :-D
hey bro i am new to ur channel and since u like space stuff and games with build varieties i suggest u strongly check deep rock galactic its fun coop game with fun classes and builds
Hey, thank you for the suggestion...I did try it a few times, but it really didn´t click for me. I´m a solo-player, even in co-op games and I couldn´t get into it. Which is a shame, because I know how popular it is and how well received. I might have to give it another try. And welcome to the channel 😀
Instead of complaining get your s**t in order and to play. It isn't his fault that you don't like the game or can't play. He is giving out advice for free...
Dank deinen Guide hab ich gestern mein erstes 500er rift geschafft :) war zwar etwas zäh aber ging doch besser als erwartet :)
Glückwunsch! Ja, easy sind die trotzdem nicht, aber der fliegende Ziegelstein kommt ganz gut zurecht :-)

Thank you a lot for such a supportive feedback! Really keeps me going 🙂

But now, your good advice would be my hope !! I'll try again the rift and get Legendaries later ;)
Thank you for great guid :) ありがとう！
Danke für den Guide, habe eben endlich die Zeit gefunden den Build nachzubauen und er funktioniert super!
Super gerne, danke für das Feedback! 😀
Great, thanks to this build I managed to level 500, it's not exactly the same but it works very well, Thanks!!!
This build rocks! I just got my gunship, too :D
Good guide overall. A minor suggestion for better dps: since you already got the Penumbra included, better replace the autocannon with an Umbra to get the massive buff from the set bonus. It applies to your coil gun too
Yeah, the set bonus would be nice, but I didn´t had one for the video. Thank you for pointing it out 🙂
Thanks for the great video.

Sounds really good, I will try that - thank you for sharing 🙂
are you using the same legenadaries as in the vid or different ones?
@@vincewills7475 the same ones. Shield and the plating. I found out thats the most consistent setup for high lunacy rifts.
ES2 content! 🙌
I like the gunship too… still enjoying the game slowly around lvl 22. Rifts are in my near future!
Slow and steady wins the game 🙃

Umbra+Penumbra+thermogun.

Thank you for the detailed write up! I love the Striker visually and will certainly try this!

Striker is my favorite ship. However, I struggle at lunacy 200. I will definitely try your build
Did you increase the autoaim setting to it's maximum? Or do you leave it on the standard 50pc setting?
I never touched that setting (on PC)
Erstmal danke für den Build, macht echt Laune. Aber wie kommst du mit einem Gunship zu einer Wendigkeit von 200 und zu einer Geschwindigkeit von 96?

The Gaus cannon needs a buff.
the Bloodstar Renegade plating has the highest armor rating in the game. Not the Omni Manus
that said, the starforged version can be a pain to get
Thanks for pointing that out...I did not stumble across that one so far obviously 🙂
This is all too complex and mind-boggling and your accent doesn't help. I wish that I hadn't sunk money into ES2
