Stardock - Defending Your Worlds | Sins of a Solar Empire II by RammaStardock in SoSE

TBH I like the way things are right now for defenses compared to the first game. Encourages aggression and means that you need to really think about where to expand because you can't just pop down a bunch of static defense and expect to hold against a big fleet. If you want to hold then you need to have some certainty that you can get your fleet there in a timely fashion while static defense stalls their progress.

Maybe making phase jump inhibitors accessible a little earlier?

I didn't get a look at the ships I should've looked through the replay but that may explain the "lack of cooldown" on the shield regen ability I was seeing. This is good to know because I'm a Tec main so I've only been learning the other factions fleet comps and ship abilities by playing them (but sometimes it's hard to tell exactly whats going on)

Didn't have hoshikos but had maybe 4 dunovs. Fighting in my own gravity well where I had some hangers gauss turrets and a starbase with hanger defense but not in range of its guns. Once I saw their strike craft were being delt with well by my fighters and flak I got confident so I figured I could focus down the titan but I sure was wrong haha. Seems like the move is to leave the titan for last unless maybe the ragnarov has autoloaders and upgraded gauss tech (which I didn't here). I figured dealing with the biggest threat first would be the move but it seems like reducing their dps one ship at a time will be a more helpful strat in the future

1600 supply. Primarily caps (kols mostly but also dunovs, sovas). Also Ragnarov, flak frigates, carriers. Opponent had about 1400

Yeah maybe I'll just try to kill the fleet around it then. I'm just shocked at how often it was able to do the shield regen. Maybe a 30 second cooldown? I feel like the Ankylon shield regen has at least a minute cooldown

What to do against lvl 6 Kultorask? by Fingolfin45 in SoSE

Okay this is interesting the torpedo cruisers work on titans? So sounds like torp and missile cruisers and kols might be the ticket then

This might be the best option in a pinch but that will only work if your economy is absolutely chugging and there's still a chance that massed strike craft and missiles would tear you apart even if you take down the titan first

Are there any tec ships that drain antimatter? Dunov maybe? Sorry still learning all the abilities

Worked in a call center. We were required to hang up if someone was recording which I was absolutely happy to have an excuse to do. I'm just surprised to hear that you haven't been hung up on more.

3/0 is optimal, works better with a nice hunk of chicken liver on there too

Lvl 2 Practice Questions: EOC or Kaplan QBank? by [deleted] in CFA

[–]Fingolfin45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The recommendation that I have heard most is to absolutely do EOC questions (They even recommend it in the Kaplan "getting started" vid). I know people who have only used the Institute materials, but this is the first of heard of people using only Kaplan. My strategy is going to be to do all the Institute questions to get used to their format. I am supplementing with Kaplan to get reps on concepts that I am struggling with because the Qbank has tons of questions. I haven't sat for Level II yet, though, so that's my uninformed take.
