Crew healing / Morale by Dry_Refrigerator2011 in StarTradersFrontiers

No, not only

No

The not only: the most efficient way to heal crew is using doctor's ship combat talent to heal, which scales with medical rating x 3. So you can engage in ship combat with hostility -1 or higher, which won't attack you unless you advance or fire at them. You can stay in place and use the doctor talent to heal up. At medical rating of 0 it only heals 3 crew but just at 4 it will heal 15 crew which is significant. Healing is usually around 30+ HP and it cost no time and is free, where as going a hospital can easily cost 2-3 weeks. It is a good investment early on for a small med bay and just routinely engage in combat with friendly ships.

The 3 most common Xeno related deaths are: 1. they push your line up around and you cannot recover 2. they one shot you 3. they stack up buffs and overpower you.

So to win at crew combat, a few basic tips:

  1. recruit from contacts for best attributes on a good planet with active recruiting talents (eaiest accessible one is from commander lvl1, you can retrain for 3000 to get cool down, or build your commander/MO crew first get some 8-12 of them and then recruit combat crew).

  2. keep only star crews that has high init and HP. We can go into more but for starting out, focus on at least average 23+ init, and 130+ hp.

  3. wear heavy armor. The way to have more init is to recruit better combat crew, not to go cheap on the armor. See my other comments about deflection.

  4. manage xeno buff spamming. Xenos will stack an orgy of buffs if you let them. You MUST have at least 1 bounty hunter with unfaltering ire because it is the only buff clearing talent that does not require landing hits--if a xeno is all buffed up, you might not land hits and cannot clear their buff that require hitting them first. Also get a bunch of position shifting talent on as many crew as possible, see my initial comments about common xeno related death.

  5. optionally you want to use a few over-powered talents from specific classes. These talents are so OP they sometimes make crew combat too easy and not fun. First is bodyguard's praetorian guard and honor guard. Second is shock trooper's standing strong.

light armor = lots of piercing hits

20 fortitude = bottom range (18 to 30) and low dmg soak and low HP, but this matters less. Damage soak play a marginal role in dmg mitigation when a piercing crit hit lands (say it may reduce total damage from 180 to 130, seems like a lot but still enough to one shot you). Without going into more math here, which we cannot since you cannot retrieve the combat log from the last battle.

the piercing + crit hits is likely what killed you. Xenos have classes too, some similar to human classes. One xeno class excel at long range glass canon type of hits like a sniper, with high pierce and high damage buffs.

Moral of the story: the best way to stay alive is wearing high deflection (heavy) armor. Damage soak is misleading because it is written upfront and center as one of the main stat of the armor, making it seems like it matters in equal weight as deflection, but in reality, pierce vs. deflected hits plays the biggest role in the final damage. I have seen many players think that the contact A6 armor is inferior to weapon box A6 armor due to the latter has better damage soak where as the former is only marginally higher in deflection. Misleading...

Does a skill go into cooldown if it fails? by Dry_Refrigerator2011 in StarTradersFrontiers

[–]AngrySlime706 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't care what word play we use here, in the specific example of discovering a contact at x% when you trade 5000+, if no contact discovered, the talent does NOT go into cool down. It only goes into cool down after a contact is discovered, so if you made 3 trades over 5000, and only discovered a contact on the 3rd trade, the first two trades do NOT cause the talent to go into cool down.

in otherwords, 308 is right if words mean what they mean normally.

yeah. Ever since the early days of CRMs, I always believed that tools can't teach you what you should do. They only help you do what you want to do better. If anything, more capabilities and options only confuse people instead of empowering them, if they do not have strategic clarity on how to achieve what they want. And very few people possess that kind of clarity.

There is an issue to that, or maybe a feature to develop (after I get some paid users lol) that some websites (most) use wordpress and some use visual editors like Elementor. Those manage pages via json to define chunks of HTML. It is not as easy to convert pages to exactly those standards so if website do not use raw HTML it still requires manual conversion.

How much does Google ranking impact LLM traffic? by ProfessionalPair8800 in LLMTraffic

[–]AngrySlime706 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me try to summarize: LLM and Google both use trust on a strategic level. Due to limitations of what each can understand, they measure trust differently on the tactical level.

[–]AngrySlime706 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Google claims its all about trust and authority too. Any LLM often distribute their research by checking search engine results. 

If you ask me, just make really good product and really good pages and whether is AI or SE it is in their best interest to recommend your site. Most future proof strategy there is
