  • Its about time we dealt with that Pirate boss thats been causing trouble around here! After all, with 4 ships now, it should be a walk in the park right?
    Avorion is a procedural co-op space sandbox where players can build their own space ships out of dynamically scalable blocks. Fight epic space battles, explore, mine, trade, wage wars and build your own empire to save your galaxy from being torn apart by an unknown enemy.

    Turret mounts aren't the strongest of blocks, and you do have them just stuck to the hull of the ship, this is why they pop off so easily and you temporarily lose the weapon attached to them. If you put some armor blocks around them to eat the incoming fire that would otherwise hit them, that'll help them survive encounters quite a bit more.

    • @katdoral5277
      @katdoral5277 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Usually what I'll do, is when I'm building the ship, I'll place turret block then build the armor around them. Takes a little planning,, but I find having them flush and surounded by armor instead of on top of armor really makes a big difference.

    I'm not sure if the alliance revealed the quadrant or territory before but I know you can purchase faction maps from the equipment dock that do. I had to laugh when you checked the stock at the equipment dock but didn't notice all the maps they had under the utilities tab.. 🙄😂
    Also, you can jump into any of your ships you give orders too and check their cargo it doesn't affect the autopilot or cancel the order unless you press backspace. You can also give orders to your own ship as long as it has a captain, so affectively automate you whole fleet while you go off and make a cuppa.. just hold shift and select the autopilot tab top right of screen for the ship you're currently in.
    And..!! sorry I keep adding stuff lol you can avoid chaining travel commands by selecting the travel icon as usual but then LMB on the final destination and choosing how fast you want that ship to travel, you will be given an ETA for each ship.

    Next time you set all your ships to go mining have them go mining individually and turn on safe mode it negates all chances of being attacked but slightly reduces the amount of material

    One tip for research stations - whenever I come across an equipment depot I look at what subsytems they have for sale. It takes at least 3 common to get an uncommon, 3 uncommon to get a rare etc. so I look at what subsystems they have that are cheap to simply use as fodder for the research station.

    • @ZahrimHancroft
      @ZahrimHancroft 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There is a 20% chance per item used to do the research. I do 3 on the commons that way if I get a common back no big deal, for the higher lvls, I go with all 5 to get the 100% chance.

    @ThomasJDellas 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    One of my favorite tactics when I played this game was to put as many and as powerful salvaging lasers as I could on my ships and use them as my offensive weapons. Yes, they are really short range but once you get shields you can go into knife-fighting mode and absolutely tear up your opponent. It also gives you a higher component yield and reduces the chance of losing things because of distance. At higher levels you can also get lasers with with halfway decent range so head-butting becomes less problematic.

  • @CuriousMind477
    @CuriousMind477 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Being able to build your own escort ships is one of the biggest things I wish they would add to Empyrion. I am unsure if the engine would be able to do it, but I love being able to build my own little flotilla of gunships to escort my big boat around, or just being able to build ships and send them off to do my bidding. Really helps you feel like you are building your empire.
    One thing I might suggest are scouting missions. They do not take that long and can really be a nice way to clear the map when you enter a new area. I think they might also impact the effectiveness of mining and trading missions, I think.
    So in case you couldn't tell I love your fleet Spanj!!!

    • @falconelsu9798
      @falconelsu9798 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Scout mission absolute do improve mining missions done in that area later (unless you manually scout it all, but the mission is faster). It would definitely have been worth it to do a scouting mission before sending the miners on their 7 hour mining mission.

    That xsotan module the equipment merchant was carrying also drops when you kill Boss Swoks; I hunt him many times over to get one of them for each of my ships.
    I do not use turret bases because I believe they are just targets and you keep losing the use of weapons.

    @Spanj when moving your ships, you don't have to manually input all the warps, just click the end location and the game will do the rest for you, even use wormholes and warp gates. Unless you want to avoid specific areas, but that's not really necessary as the chances of them dying are slim to none.

    If your ship needs say 10 crew to fly it, if you instead give them 30 they will go twice as fast, and that is true for another thing that isn't the guns or miners.

  • @kithran
    @kithran 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The mechanics of research are as follows: put in between 3 and 5 items in. Have to be within one rareity of each other (but really you want them all the same). You will either get something of the same rarity or something of the next rarity up. If you put in 5 items of the same rarity you will always get something of the next rarity up and putting in 4 gives a higher chance than 3 of increasing rarity. If you do the maths and aren't after boosting a specific subsystem then you want to be going for attempts with 3 as each failure still leaves you with an item of the starting rarity that can be used in another attempt. Each research station also has a tech level (only applies to turrets) and combining lower tech level turrets can increase the tech level of turrets to a maximium depending on the location of the lab, closer to the centre the higher the tech level.

    Spanj, you really need to learn how to fly backwards during combat. Helps string them out a bit so you don't get swamped.
    Alliance just means you can now buy the full map.
    One of the things I don't do is research the Anti-matter guns until I have 5 of them. Better chance to get another Anti-mater based gun. Good type to have while you are in the titanium regions.

    I hope you don't mind me saying Spanjoman, but I think you've got the Katla class and the Flank/Mobius classessesses the wrong way around - I think your Katla class Frigate is the perfect little escort for your mining ships, and your Flank class would make better mining ships because of the potential cargo hold size and the number of mining lasers they can fit on their hardpoints. ;)

    • @Spanj
      @Spanj  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      But the flank is made of armor, heavy as hell, its a proper little brawler or supposed to be anyway, the Katla's have been scaled up too remember so their cargos are pretty good now.
      Also, i am not sure how much cargo space really plays in the mining missions, I think it just calculates based on mining specific sub-systems but not sure
