To make my turrets big enough where they seemed to do viable damage they looked much too big for the ship they were on.Ĥ) Ship size/building - I have a creative mode and a single player world. I used to be able to load up a good size missile/missile battery and take out most of them in a single burst but it seems to take more and more to damage, question- what is a good weapon size or loadout for smaller enemies and what size are common turrets. In the past a set of ion-machine cannons and a few powerful dumb fire missiles was all you needed to take out anything pretty quickly.ģ)Turrets and small ships so my big ship can take a beating pretty easily from dozens of small fighters but i have a horrible time taking them out. Small ships seem more viable now but big ships have always been more fun, With shields and armor now to compete with are their still certain weapon types that are the default 'go-to'. Sometimes i even completely decimate an enemy(pirate) ship with it missing huge chunks and it still is operational, sometimes i get a lucky shot with a cannon and it seems to be dead with a good amount of it still intact. How do you disable enemy ships? Before i would have to do a certain amount of damage to the core to disable but now i see ships have shields, armor, structure stats as well. I tried searching for some of these answers but a lot of the information seemed very out of date or through simple testing seemed inaccurate so i figured reddit would be the best place for up to date information. I have several questions so i thought i would just put them all in one thread. Last i played was right at the rail update. I havent played it in a while and was inspired to do some ship building and see how the game has progressed. If a zerg cannot be made, join a guild and host a guild event where 20+ of you go into IC and trample every Sorc and NB in an unholy stampede of Sloading Screens, Poisonous Injections, Jesus Beams, Assaults of the Soul, and the GLORIOUS CLEANSING FIRE of Valkyn Skoria.Okay, first i quite enjoy starmade but have had some bad experiences in the past. For extra power, you can also use the Sload's Semblance set to stack unresistable DoT damage. Simply craft an Infused bow with an Oblivion Damage enchantment and spam away! Stack as many DoTs as you can to help ensure your damage is the last tick before the enemy croaks. If you are of the stamina variety, you can invest in the Sheer Venom armor set in ICP that will augment your Poison Injection spam attack with an additional DoT. Meteor is not advised as it takes a few seconds to land, allowing time for the target to get killed by something else before the Meteor lands. For extra burst, you can use Valkyn Skoria, as it will proc off of Jesus Beam (if Temp), Soul Assault, and your HA channeled ticks - all of which are DoTs. For sustain, use an Infused Lightning Staff HA with an Oblivion Damage Enchantment equipped. If you are of the magicka variety, equip Soul Assault and stack Max Magicka, crit chance, crit damage, and spell damage. If you don't have a class execute, then you'll struggle somewhat because everyone else will get the killing blow 99% of the time, but it is still very doable - even with a stamina setup. Executes proc at low health and burst quickly enough to land you the final blow. The '50-final-blow kills' achievement is largely doable if you sit in the back of a zerg and spam your class execute, such as Jesus Beam or Mage's Fury. Below I've listed the easiest ways you can help make this ridiculous grind more manageable: Another year of lag-ridden gameplay is upon Tamriel and once again some players will be frantically trying to procure 50 killing blows for the Star-Made Knight title.
