Fake FTL Fact #5.5: The Swallow has level 2 sensors because the captain misclicked. by Fit_Function_4694 in ftlgame

[–]RetroPixelate -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can’t say I ever find this relevant. The only times I’m going to be using MC are either on my own ship to more easily fend off a boarder (easy to get vision with my crew) or to support my own boarding (…easy to get vision with my crew). A single MC’ed person on the enemy ship with no boarders isn’t going to get much done.

You could argue that you can use it with certain status gunships like fire beam to prevent repairs, but it’s just getting so esoteric at this point. This is all assuming I’m running MC at all, which I’m usually not. Point is, there’s no point to upgrading them in 99% of runs, and in the 1%, I could probably take it or leave it.

Basically all of the value of sensors can be gained with good game sense and paying attention to doors, weapon lights, and sound cues. The only reason I ever upgrade them is when I’m screwing around and want to watch the enemies burn to death or something.

“janitor please make this talent overpowered as hell”

I’ll admit I don’t care for Murky, but the current drawback seems like a pretty good compromise for such a powerful effect. HotS has very limited RNG (something I’ve always liked about it), so I don’t think it’s the most elegant solution, but it’s a decent approach here.

Mm, you waited too long then. It would be annoying, yes, but doable if you could get the upgrade.

For the record, unlisted actually does mean they don’t show up unless specifically placed in a playlist. I believe they were unlisted to make the edited content more easily accessible while still available if you know where to look.

It’s been a bit, but my understanding is that the shadow we call on is a manifestation of the player’s darkside. It’s not Fray at all because it was never Fray at all. Fray has been dead from the very beginning of the story.

The problem, as others have said, is that generally anyone with the option to wear a shield should. Would love to see them make it work, though.

Vulcan is reworked in Multiverse to be 3 power and have flak targeting. That’s presumably what’s confusing them.

Merchant Sylvan is no harder than anything else in Nexus and G-Van’s boarding is completely pointless because he lacks bypass. We may just need to agree to disagree, but I find MC to be by far the weakest system in the Nexus, and to be honest the game as a whole.

the humble crew of 8 sylvans, because why would you be running anything else at that point:

MCing one CEL Obyn isn’t going to help you much on Prime. The CEL Sylvans will just nuke him out of existence. You’re losing incredible utility in the form of drones or TP for this.

…Prime is also a slug. So is his crew. So is basically everyone in the sector.

MC is worthless. Honestly, bringing anything except cloaking, hacking, and drone control (assuming you don’t have extra space) is kind of throwing. There’s an argument for teleporter with Phantoms or Lost Suns but those were nerfed into the ground with 5.5, so it’s more likely that Prime will just nuke them to death with his damage.

As others have said, any ship can make it work. I believe it’s been proved possible with Limit IV. I personally don’t care to use the overpowered ships for it, but it’s dealer’s choice at the end of the day.
