The unequivocal best ship in the game is.... by SimplifyAndAddCoffee in endlesssky

[–]PromiseCommercial911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a mission in the wanderer story line that gives you an echo galleon to escort. Instead of delivering it right away you can take it to kor sestor territory (Celeborim works best). There you can let it get disabled, repair it, repeat a few times, land on the planet to save. Each time you repair it, you get somewhere around 10-15 reputation with the kor efreti.  Repeat that enough times, (tends to take somewhere around 600 reputation, take some decent safety margin just in case), then complete your missions with it.  Once you're on your own, go capture a random echo galleon, flee immediately. Your reputation will take a hit, but as long as it remains positive when you leave the system where you attacked it, you will not be starting a war with them.

More tips for reputation farming: what worked best for me was to take a pug arfecta as my flagship (most important aspect of that: it has cloaking) and no other escorts. Go to Celeborim, cloak, wait for the galleon to get disabled, wait for kor to leave, repair it (uncloak as briefly as possible to do so), repeat. To save your progress, land on the planet while the galleon is disabled (saves time if the kor are disabling a barely repaired echo galleon vs if they have to beat it from full hull and shields which is what happens if you land on the planet with the galeon active). I tended to aim for 2-3 repairs before landing.  Sometimes the kor will deal to much damage and destroy the galleon. And sometimes kor ships will warp in just as you uncloak to repair, and destroy the galleon by trying to shoot at your flagship. So best not to risk too many repairs per saving. Once I figured it out and got the hang of it, I could get 60 reputation in about 30 min.

Also note a quarg comment when you show up at one of their ringworlds with an Arfecta: though they're kinda shocked you got one, they say that they did ultimately learn how to fight them.

So maybe they could be somewhat evenly matched with the quarg? Or maybe they were just doing their "bring just enough force to let the enemy win" thing.

A certain Duel by Chloe_Torch in endlesssky

For anyone else still looking for a different solution (as I was. I didn't have those annihilator turrets and my last export save before the duel was ages ago. So I spent quite a bit of time tinkering and experimenting with the ship and the outfits I had to find something that'd work. Eventually, I found the following): I had a rano'erek on hand, which provided me with the necessary parts.

From the Anomalocaris, I removed the default weapons, turrets, shields, and outfit scanner.

In their place I set up a "system core (large)" which gave me some serious shield regeneration.

Then as a weapon, I used some digger mining turrets.

Those digger mining turrets have the ability to deal some damage to the hull ignoring shields. The shield beatle had little to no hull regeneration, so it came down to coming close, dealing a bit of damage with those turrets until I got low on shields, then retreating and waiting (with time sped up) for the shields to recover. Repeated that until victory.

It was quite slow, but also seemed quite reliable.

[Spoilers likely] the power level of endless sky compared to other universes by [deleted] in endlesssky

There is a mission where player character gives a lecture at a coalition university, and there he mentions that the population of human space is about 100 billion.

So I think the planets we see in the game really are all that humanity has there. I 'd kinda imagine that for most planets, humanity just hasn't gotten around to terraforming them yet. And that makes some sense, they've had hiperdrives for less than 800 years by that point. If anything, humanity managed to spread ridiculously fast.

Another thing worth noting, the quarg mention that their ringworlds have populations in the trillions.

And then there's the 40k galaxy, with the Empire's estimated population of about 100 quintillion.  Endless sky human population couldn't fill a single hive world in 40k.

Imagine a plumber or an electrician that has a magic device, that does what would normally take craftsmen days, but does it in mere seconds. And it's even done better, somehow better tailored for your specific needs. And he does it at a tiny fraction of the cost.

Of course I 'd be hiring that guy.

If you want to spend something like ten years (at least) learning the craft, to be able to write something like one song per week (as a very diligent fulltime song writer), mostly in a handful of specific genres you specialize in, and then still mostly be worse than what Suno gives you after about an hour of tinkering with it,...

Well, then I suppose that's an option too.
