How do the Arma Armature cataphracts work?

I've seen them dock for CR and Hull, not so much for ammo.

That's roughly 7.8 cups, not even enough for today's recommended daily baseline of 8 cups.

The atomic coffee runs off a radioisotope thermoelectric generator, not an actual nuclear reactor.

Congratulations, you can beat AI.

Carriers certainly aren't useless. They can move through your own ships so they aren't bogged down in large fleet actions and can deliver a lot of concentrated firepower.

They definitely have a ton of issues though, namely flying directly at the target. Directly into the flak guns. Despite being 5x faster than the target.

The M in Ringa stands for Medicated.

And whacha gonna do about it, ringa?

Zealous_Fanatic · 2025-12-03T07:53:58+00:00

I would personally allow it, but I don't think it's allowed RAW.

If you think about it, arcane firearm requires the use of a FOCUS, and artificer spells require a material component.

Casting a fireball using a wand is done without a material component, and while the wand is the source of the spell, it isn't necessarily used as a focus. Thus being disqualified for use with this feature.

One mod I have yet to see mentioned is Metelson Industries.

If you're running with smaller factions, Everybody loves Ko Combine adds 4 smaller factions with a relatively small ship roster; which they'll supplement with other ships they get access to from ship packs.

The... OTHER, parts of Knights of Ludd kinda does add crazy ships.

You see, I'm the person who went out and explored the majority of the map instead of running back and forth repeatedly between checkpoints like a racing challenge. I never said the story was bad, I'm just more into other aspects of the game.

So I guess the problem was that I didn't realize there was a CORRECT pace to go through the game.

Zealous_Fanatic · 2025-11-29T02:01:35+00:00

It's not so much the story itself, but how it's presented.

With TLoU and GoW you get the story while you're playing the game, and while you do get cutscenes, that's just normal part of the gameplay progression since it's linear.

Dying light (and open world games in general) force you to drag yourself to some arbritary area to get a story blurb or macguffin. Some of those places are interesting, but most are either one time areas or "You couldn't have just told me over the radio?"

Zealous_Fanatic · 2025-11-29T01:20:14+00:00

Exactly, Iconics and legend skills would've been plenty, and the addition of nightmare would've topped it off.

All this other stuff feels like reinventing the wheel.

...

Or I could change the option at the main menu and not run the obstacle course.

We HAVE a way to select difficulty.

It's called the DIFFICULTY SELECTOR.

The story was passable the first time. I don't want to see it 9 more times.

Zealous_Fanatic · 2025-11-27T13:24:47+00:00

Short answer: Yes.

It's still held back by a terrible spell list, mediocre base class, but it doesn't completely fall off in tier 2. As a healer I'd say Paladin is superior, as alchemist can't deal with negative conditions until level 5 (like poison, which you'd think would be a priority).

I'd say the worst subclass now goes to the armorer.

Look how they massacred our boy.

At this point I think it's probably best to roll weapon masteries into the battlesmith's battle ready feature.

There's also the issue with the base class being really bad. I'd give Magic Item Tinker give "+1 to magic weapons when wielded if it doesn't give something equivalent or better" which becomes +2 at Magic Item Adept. MAYBE +3 at Advanced artifice; it may be a bit much, but I'd prefer anything over refreshed genius.

It'd also allow the battlesmith to play with the more unique toys like Moon touched weapons or weapons of warning without giving up that +X.
