    Faster Than Light | Ok so maybe I’m a little evil sometimes


    Ok so maybe I’m a little evil sometimes

    In my 300 hours of playing this game, I have never been offered a better deal

    Due to Covid19, the Federation imposed social distancing rules on all ships. Norbert will have to do this all alone. Wish him luck.

    What are some FTL loopholes you wish you didn't know?

    Posted: 04 May 2020 11:02 PM PDT

    Things that you know are there but shouldn't be and are kind of a grind to execute, and you've promised yourself not to use them, but then you just had an unlucky run and you're barely limping to the next Beacon, and it's just this one time, you swear...

    • Sven maneuver: with the Pre-Igniter, get a volley from weapons you can't power by powering them, pausing, and depowering them
    • Sven charge maneuver: with the Pre-Iginiter, get a full charge from charge weapons by powering them fully, pausing, then depowering them
    • Defensive leveling: with an enemy who can't damage you, just sit there and take fire until you fully level shields, engines, and piloting
    • Offensive leveling: with an enemy who can't damage you, and a weapon that can't damage them, just sit there and fire until you fully level weapons

    What else?

    Not bad, not bad...

    How does an enemy ship hit me if I'm cloaked?

    Posted: 05 May 2020 01:51 AM PDT

    I'm trying the stealth B and a few times today I've ended up getting hit (in the weapons room...) by a missile while cloaked.

    I thought the cloak let you avoid all hits completely. If I've not even fired the glaive, how can I have disturbed my cloak? This is early enough on that I've only assigned a single energy bar to engines but two to the cloak, if that makes any difference.

    I beat the flagship for the first time ever today! (On easy, 'cause I'm a filthy casual) :)

    My learning curve for stealth cruiser

    Posted: 04 May 2020 09:45 AM PDT

    I have never seen so many blue options in a single encounter

    The best crew a Slug B could ask for

    How often do you buy teleporter on ships that don't start with one?

    Posted: 04 May 2020 08:33 PM PDT

    I usually go Cloaking-Hacking-Mind Control on gunships, but I'm wondering if maybe teleporter is better than mind control. I'm thinking particularly about Hard, where it doesn't trivialize the flagship so much.

    I guess my main question would be what stuff do you need to have before you consider buying a teleporter. Particularly, what's the minimum you need for it to be worth buying, like is having 2 mantis crew good enough or do you also need a decent missile weapon to support it, etc.

    OMG. Idk if it’s really that impressive or not but I did it. After over a week of taking a crack at it, taking about 8 swings at the flagship and probably about 20 good long runs, I have finally cleared hard mode. So happy.

    I'm trying to beat normal, which ship should I use/tips for ships I like?

    Posted: 04 May 2020 12:33 PM PDT

    I've got most of the ships from easy play-throughs (missing mantis C, rock C, and both crystals), and I've now started normal runs. I keep dying, especially once three shields come out. Now I've seen lots of tips already, so I'm asking for what ship would y'all recommend? I also have a list of my favourite ships, if you have any tips for them, please send them

    Ships I like and have played a decent amount with:
    - Any Federation cruiser
    • Fed A and B I build defensively, have a hard time with getting a defence drone though
    • Fed C is nice because of extra scrap from boarding and an easy time breaking shields
    - Engi B
    • I know people hate it, but I like the heavy laser and the blue options the drones give you
    - Slug A
    • rewards from boarding without risking crew, is nice
    - Zoltan C
    • On paper, really nice, but I struggle with knowing what to upgrade/buy and what to leave alone

    Ships I like but haven't played a lot of:
    - Kestrel B
    • Lots of firepower, have won on easy with it
    - Lanius B
    • Great boarders
    - Zoltan B
    • Nice weapons, and the pike is easily replaced with a fire beam
    - Slug C
    • Hacking and mind control, plus chain lasers sounds like a good combo

    Ships I can't stand (tips for these would still be nice):
    - Rock A
    • Over-reliant on missles, crew is painfully slow
    - Rock B
    • Rapid drop off in firepower, painfully slow crew, can't deal with fire quickly
    - Stealth C
    • No shields and no cloak is a bad combo, other than that I like it
    - Slug B
    • Boarding ship, but healing sucks
    - Engi A
    • I can't seem to get going with it, either my defence sucks or my offence sucks
    - Mantis B
    • Only two mantises as crew
