Summary0013374: List of ship(s) that prevent (steady) progress
DescriptionI'll post a list of ships that are seriously stopping play. Keeping it easy at Normal/Normal. Will update if I find any more tonight.
List:
- Burlust Longship and Boarine model X. Might be wrong because I've loaded a 0.806 game into 0.807, but they appear to have at least 85% damage reduction against most weapons.

EDIT: Cinth pointed out that they are weak to AP weapons. In this view:
- Please label player weapons in the Black Market menu and in battle with their types somewhere obvious.
- Consider listing the damage of all weapons types, or include descriptions of the weapon types that will actually work against a vessel. I think players tend to look for information that will help them win, rather than help them not lose. These are not obvious for the heavily armoured ship-types.

TagsNo tags attached.

Burlust Longship - It's weak to AP (piercing)

And to answer the edit ;)

You can find type in the battle tooltip (hover over during combat). That information could be made available at the Black Market.

I noticed the same thing and I respect the suggestion of Cinht but... if you start with the Acutian ship you have no weapon that can make more then 15% of its damage to Burlust Longship. Acutian ship has ballistic, energy and gravity weapons.
At game start it's a grind to destroy Longship...

I think this should be resolved now (particularly .853), but if not let me know!
