or cloak to avoid the drones, bomb the medbay until it's destroyed, then warp in 2(or 4 if you use crystal b) mantis/rockmen/crystal crew members and have them kill everyone but one guy
Will the AI shut off oxygen so you can't have crew destroy it from the inside?

no

But has anyone had their game just close on them? ._.


Oh God, my first time breaking the flagship down a stage. Although I'm so royally forgeted up and can't get any repairs, I doubt I will actually beat the starfish flagship.

After dying a good 80 times, you'll get it, it took me about that long.

just aim for those damn rocket launchers...

I have 2 Ion Beams and a Heavy Ion, as well as a Pike Beam. What I did was focus all my ion beams on the triple rockets, which would have me either taking down the shields or disabling the rockets. I found autofire was bullstuffing me for the pike beam, always firing when the shields were up, so I manually used it whenever their shields were down.

They should add some augmentation where if an autofiring weapon can't do stuff at the moment, it delays the autofire until it can... Although then it'd be too easy mode, huh?

Edit: I also have a Anti-Bio beam in storage, but without my ion beams I can't take down the shields to use it. I know it'd be amazing against those starfishs in the weapons, but I'm not well armed enough to go without the ion beams.

FTL updated to v1.02.5. Details here (v1.02-v1.02.5 are mainly what is new): http://ftlwiki.com/wiki/Versions#v1.02.5 --- http://www.ftlgame.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2707

One major thing I'll mention is they added Beacon Pathes to the Options Menu. When Enabled, it will show all the locations you can jump from that beacon, which is useful as forget for determining the correct path, instead of going this way and discovering it JUST doesn't reach the exit, and having to go around the Rebel fleet to escape.

Just got the Zoltan cruiser randomly, I'm not even trying to get ships and so far I have the Red-Tail, the Engi and the Zoltan cruiser! This is so much fun. :D

I must discuss with you over Steam how to get the Red Tail - The achievements confuse me.

BUMP because this game deserves it.


I successfully got full shields and several high-level laser weapons and pretty much creamed every ship I came up against, including all three iterations of the Flagship.

I got to the fifth sector on my first playtrough, I do good?

beat the boss 2 times in a row with generic kestrel layout with 13 and 15 hull

why are people always so close

i've got all the ships, and I must say, the crystal cruisers are good
