Also, guys: If your FTL graphics are pixelated/messy, find the game's settings.ini file and add 'swapTexture=1' there. Said file should be in [steam directory]/steamapps/common/ftl

This should fix a lot of graphical problems C:

@jaxy15: High evasion and thick shields help a lot. Also, weapons that can pierce 4-layer of shields. I always knock away shields, and then weapons, and then it is easy.

EDIT: OMG OMG OMG! SOMEONE IS MODDING IN STAR TREK INTERFACES/STARSHIPS INTO FTL YESSSSS
LINK!

Tip for those trying to fight against Flagship whilst feeling underpowered:

Turn off autofire, pause button is your friend. Pause every second if you need to - it will save you many tears of frustration because you mis-timed or looked away to check your ship at wrong moment.

Just tore half my face off because my razors are blunt as fuck.
Feels OHGODTHEPAIN.

 :P
Razors? Are you crazy!? I use an electric trimmer.

This. Buy yourself an electric trimmer and save yourself from pain (and possibly expensive shaving cream).

Okay, so. With each phase, Rebel Flagship got easier :D

First one was pain in ass because of cloak and ion weapon. Also my weapons didn't want to hit the damn ship. But I managed, and used only 2 bombs to set fire to the shields room. Rest was coordination between the lasers and halberd beam. After this, I went to repair myself - the station was 3 jumps away but I had the luxury of time.

Second one was, I think, the easier. Whilst Rocks were busy with the boarding drones, my firebombs ravaged the Flagship's drone and shields room. And then, a repeat of first phase.

I've restocked and repaired myself at nearby station to full health.

Third phase was even easier than the drone phase. The flagship scored hits only because I didn't disabled the missile room soon enough. Same tactic as above.

And here you have the winner ship :) As you can see, Rocks were busy with repairing doors (proved to be unnecessary, really), whilst rest of the crew took it rather easy on themselves.

WOOHOO! My second victory on Normal in this game, sweet :D

This ship now prepares to jump to Last Stand area. No teleporter got, BUT!

Hopefully shields and high evasion will allow me to pound the flagship into submission, whilst strategically knowing out systems and planting fire bombs on board.

Okay, RNG just gave me fire bomb from random salvage event and 60 70 scrap?

I'M WORRIED.

I'M GENUINELY WORRIED.

* Haspen is too worried to proceed to next sector Dx

The amount of gifts that RNG throws at me is making me nervous. Clearly it is planning to wipe me out with some automated scout. Also: Haven't seen a single Ion weapon in the whole run. None from events, none in any shop I've encountered but oh well, can't be greedy.

Since previous post, I got second Rock member, as well as engi, and human. Also found a Heavy Laser Mk1 from random event.

Have a look on the ship, am I doing it right?:

Augments are Long Range Scanners, Weapon Pre-Igniter and Zoltan Supershield (obviously).

PS: Actually, the more you plan&pause the game, the less useful the autofire becomes.

My second run on Zoltan Cruiser A. Decided to save up some scrap for shop shenaningans later.

After few almost-died-if-not-lucky-evade encounters, I warp into Rock homeworlds.

Not only I got a Burst Laser Mk2 from a store there, but on the very next beacon, I've saved a station from fire (rock guys ftw) and what I get as reward?

Weapon Pre-Igniter. So now at jumping, I have Halberd Beam and Burst Laser Mk2 loaded up.

Awwwww yeeeeeea! RNG must have decided that killing me ten times in a row in early sectors is enough for a while :P

That doesn't count, he got all nice stuff on the first sectors :P

I rarely get anything useful for Stealth Cruiser.

The game really does seem to hate stealth ships :/  I managed to make it to the final boss, but I had barely enough scrap to spend on shields and had no chance to get decent weapons.

You got to Boss with a Stealth Cruiser?

WHAT KIND OF DEMON YOU ARE D:!

I never got with Stealth Cruiser past Sector 2. It's either asteroids, or beams, or missile weapons, or drones.

Whilst the station, prior to destruction, looked like a piece of componenets and scrap for taking, that the rest of debris weren't. The crew managed to salvage very little of the useful parts.

"FTL engine at standby." The computer said after some time.

+4 Components
+1 Drone parts
