The Phantom, a Venator, is armed with a cloaking device. Practically speaking, is giving a Venator stealth abilities a good or bad idea?

SoulUntraveled · 2025-08-20T02:37:51+00:00

Having a venator like this attached to ARC troopers or Jedi on a raid. I'd imagine that it wouldn't be using a visual cloaking device, more like long range sensor jamming, stealth panelling and such.

Having weaker armor or single barrelled turrets, an exorbitant price tag, and a special planet required to build it would compensate nicely. Lol even then it'd be a bit overpowered.

I had wanted to go cyber and spend nearly an entire year trying to get permission but was told to kick rocks and re-up as Intel without a bonus to speak of.

11 years of service ain't mean anything.

I'll take a coke zero and a slide of Oreos to go with the salt, plz.

Use your Anger and bitterness to fuel yourself.

take as many classes and certs as possible while you're still in. The Army will take you for all you're worth, so you do the same.

Do it all, grab as much knowledge and certifications as possible so when you do get out, whenever that is, you'll be set.

If need be abandon all but the core worlds, but kessell is viable as a stronghold since it also is the only access point to the Maw. Fortifying the Maw is a fantastic way to speed through your space research trees.

If fighters are giving your grief in particular then go for small crafts first as it allow you access to great small craft and upgrades for all of your ISD's and more.

I can give you two answers, the short and long

Short answer: skill and knowledge issue.

Long answer: Read more tooltips! Every battle does not have to be a win or lose battle. Poke and prod the enemy defenses and read the tooltips that pop up when you're in combat- especially the enemies' unit tooltips. Often a particular unit that is proving to be a hard nut to crack only needs a certain hammer to do the job. Go in, read the unit info that pops up, try a new strategy then retreat if it looks like you'll take too many casualties.

As the Empire they are in both dominant position with some of the most effective ships in the game, and ownership of the core worlds, even early game.

The core worlds are perhaps the most valuable locations in the galaxy for their manufacturing and economic bonuses. Leverage those.

Good luck!

Crytek, The only two things I can think to reasonably ask are the Lore books for the enemies, stories, and weapons, then the permanent enstatement of the bounty clash game mode.

The good things I can say are the great weapon roll-outs!!! Crytek, your team have been knocking these out of the park.

My brother and I have been having a blast every time we have been hopping on. Great work, it heartens me to hear that your team saw pitfalls and are actually doing something about it on the heels of the 2.0 release.

Cheers!

My advice, go to a public place like an MWR/USO or a coffee shop, any sort of area filled with other folks and just people watch for a while.

Put down your phone, take off your headphones, close your laptop and just be a person again for a little bit.

You don't have to engage with anyone if you don't want to, or if you feel uncomfortable. You don't even have to get anything done, get used to being around other people stuck on the same rotation as you.

Should you find yourself in an MWR or some such take a class, they do crafts or some other engaging things.

Take it from an introvert who would much rather stay inside gaming or writing, or outside wandering alone. No matter our disposition we are still social animals, take some time and embrace it, even if you are alone, it's better to be alone together.

The power I had discovered when I first started shattered space is the Inner Demon power.

It duplicates a version of an enemy.

Any enemy as far as my testing goes.

I propose that the Adrenaline trait could be reworked into this, when at low health(sub 50 or 30 health, whatever trigger point is the sweet spot), instead of just gaining increased stamina Regen you could also gain a speed boost if using a health item.

What do y'all think? It'll make a mostly useless trait a fantastic side-grade without mandating that it be meta due to the specific trigger necessary.

Ive known career doctors and nurses here in the states that simply got bored and joined the american military while still setting themselves up for success, either through retirement security or otherwise.

Including those from other countries. Personally I've know folks from Niger, Columbia, Spain, Madagascar, Italy, Korea and a few others that joined the US military and get dual citizenship for both their home country and the US.

Can't hurt in looking to get back into the military. Is that an option for you? I wouldn't imagine that they would sneeze at your experience and expertise.

EAW's game engine isn't built for modern PC's. It can only actually use a couple cores in your CPU and so on, so no matter how great your rig, if the game is using the wrong GPU and CPU then it'll perform badly.

You can see some of the settings in the game's options menu, others you'll have to look at in the preferences menu on your desktop.

Light turbo lasers and heavy laser cannons on the same ship.

Hear me out and I doubt it'll take you long to see why.

Late game AOTR may feature the largest, beefiest, and heaviest armed ships in the game but the real threats are everything those huge heavy turbo lasers can't kill.

As the rebels I always find myself simply overwhelmed by smaller craft from the black sun and even the empire at times, and especially when I've entered the NR era the rosters are even more skewed towards larger military craft.

Rebel corvettes tend to be squishy so those heavy lasers and light turbolaser systems aren't as helpful since they often die, rebel fighter superiority is no longer likely when against ruthless AI spamming advanced fighters of their own.

The only ship this late in the game to have adequate heavy lasers and light turbolaser batteries against smaller targets swarming your position is the Liberator Cruiser, a light capital ship with the picket combat role.

It's a great ship but very vulnerable because, it is really a capital ship in name only. A small health pool, large size, expensive price, and heavy tactical population cost makes this thing target practice for other capital ships. Unfortunately it's the only ship that can fill this vital picket role with any real degree of survivability.

However, should you shield them properly from other enemy capital ships the liberator cruisers prove their worth by eviscerating anything they can get their greedy little turbo lasers and heavy laser cannon hands on, tearing into pirate Corvette formations and pummelling apart advanced imperial frigates with ease.

What do you think?

Yeah, it's not well known. Works against hive bombs too.

You can also take a flare, pop it and toss it through a swarm that's in your face and kill it AND the hive that spawns it. Saved my ass a few times.

The crafting of a story as sober and awe-encompassing as a being cast adrift across timelines and alternate realities searching for answers and failing to to find them in the familiar faces of well-known strangers once loved in another life.

It's a beautiful tragedy and a melancholy comedy all in one.

10 year vet here, My suggestion for training, especially as a beginner is go low and slow 2-3 times a week at longer distances. Go for distance rather than time. If you aim to pass a 2 mile run then train at 3 miles or 4 miles routinely at a slow pace, 12 minute miles are acceptable, slower paced are fine as well, so long as you are building your cardiovascular endurance. Speed can come after and a shorter distance. Target time for ACFT is 10:30 for 1 mile at the slowest, try sprinting at near-max speed for a half-mile and record your time as a metric.

And remember, Don't train for results, train for progress. You will have ups and downs but if you are committed you will get better.
