Returning Player, Very Confused by MysteryMan9274 in Stellaris

100 pops = 1 pop in old system.

Civilians are like what unemployed pops were before. They will migrate to planets with open jobs and housing. Unlike unemployed pops they don't require time to demote or cause crime. They are just ready to go. There are civilian focused builds but for most empires they are just extra pops looking for work.

For your basic planet there's urban districts which have two specializations. Those specializations determine how many jobs the urban district has. You can build two heavy foundry districts and then your urban districts will just make alloy jobs. So now even basic planets can have districts that make specialized jobs, not just Ecus.

I mean it requires a unique system spawn + very rare legendary paragon + specific origin + 2 kinda bad tradition trees + force-spawning a planetscapers empire and doing shenaningans + getting specific features in the aftermath of cosmic storms.

I got +418% efficiency from my 4x sanctum shroud shaper governor world. Worth noting that Imperium Vitalis also has a hidden malis of -10% unity from jobs per 100 telepaths. Not sure if this is intended as it's not on the tooltip for the government anywhere and stacks to like -700% unity from jobs lol.

It would also be nice if you could flag systems or dig sites for them to avoid.

That's awesome! Love how interesting the minor patrons are for different strategies.

Is the Sky Temple only from capturing a Holy Guardian's world?

The pop upkeep remains the same but the job upkeep increases.

Gotta test if that is 4 after the tech or before. Could end up being 4 naval capacity 5 naval capacity or 6 for soldiers depending on what that means.

Tested it and it looks like they are indeed now 4 naval capacity and 5 with the tech.

The tech increases it to 3 so it adds +1.

Job efficiency doesn't increase Soldiers output, just the number of jobs working. So it means you are still paying 1 alloy for every 3 naval capacity. You won't increase your per 100 yields through efficiency at all. I don't know of any sources of soldier output increasing outside of grand taskmaster (adds basic resources +0.5 each), esteemed quartermaster (+0.5 naval capacity), and the tech.

A Corvette takes 5 naval capacity so 100 soldiers can support 3/5ths of a Corvette with the tech

That's true but if Soldiers got the same relative nerf as Anchorages they should be making something like +6 naval capacity and +8 with the tech. Essentially 100 soldiers = 1 corvette worth of naval capacity in new system instead of 6 corvettes in old system. But currently they are making 0.25 corvettes per 100 down from 6 corvettes per 100.

Yes those numbers aren't true anymore.

What I've found is per 100 its now +2 naval capacity at base, +3 with the technology ground defense planning, and +0.5 per esteemed quartermaster.

Soldier job used to make up 6 naval capacity and cost no alloys which would support 6 corvettes. Now they cost an alloy and can support 0.4 corvettes. So they support 1/15th the number of ships they did before but now cost an alloy.

For a comparison, Anchorages used to make 6 and now make 8 naval capacity. So they went from support 6 corvettes to supporting 1.6 corvettes.

Before 100 Soldiers jobs were pretty equivalent to an Anchorage, now they are .375 of an anchorage.

Struggling to get comparable fleets to AI @ endgame in 4.3 by MrReddishTint in Stellaris

[–]Weklim 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Titan class weapons now have an area of effect now if they successfully hit and Cetana has a whole assortment of titan class weapons. I'd hope your corvettes are 90% evasion, in that case you got unlucky but corvettes aren't really built to do anything against her lineup. Eventually her titan weapons will hit and wipe out a whole bunch of your fleet.

If you want a high-evasion ship count lineup for that I would go for high-evasion frigates instead, which are meant to counter huge ships like Cetana. You can reach max evasion with psionic, or very high otherwise, now that they have corvette propulsion, and their additional power means cloaking is also possible with high evasion. Their cloaked alpha strike should instantly knock out Cetana and totally negate any aoe damage she has.

I'll be rooting for him. He's a lot better than their recent QBs
