Amazing that people don't know this. But thanks for getting it out there. EM Damage good, Auto Turrets bad when it comes to boarding ships. I'm flying an off the shelf Narwal, simply switched out the Auto Turrets for EM weapons, boarding anything is not an issue. I won't even touch ship builder until I can save my creations, especially as I'm just about ready for NG+

@jeffreyong1159 8 месяцев назад

There is one more tip you missed out, after taking over a ship, you can auto pilot the ship you have taken over back to port without you needing to fly back to port, just switch home ship to your boarded ship, and then redock to your original ship and switch home ships back to your original ship, the stolen ship will then self pilot back to port.

@kelikeely9101 8 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for this comment. I had taken over a ship but the engines were dead and I was trying to figure out how to get it home. This actually worked!!! 🎉😊

Plus it will auto loot everything in the ship, and move the cargo for you

@Benneification 8 месяцев назад

How to do this exactly? As far as I know i need to be in the ship I've taken over to make it my home ship via menu. But as soon as I do this, my original ship instantly undocks and autopilots to to port without any option to reboard it and make it my homeship again...

@jeffreyong1159 8 месяцев назад

@@Benneification There are 3 ways, 1st is when they undock, quickly retarget your original ship and redock with it, board, sit in the captains chair and set the home ship back 2nd undock and target your original ship 1st before changing the captured ship to your home ship thenafter you change the home ship, you can easily redock to your original ship. 3rd undock with your original ship and redock with it before changing home ships. For some reason after you do that, when you switch home ships, they do not undock after that. Then you can just board back your original ship and set the home ship back Hope that helps

@PC64292 8 месяцев назад

Also doing this allows you to overfill a ships hold so you can carry all your resources in the cargo hold without having to leave them laying all over the ship.

A Coachman with Hornets Nest is perfect for clearing ships as the crew tend to be in groups of 2 or 3. Jus tkeep a reasonable distance to avoid roasting yourself, but it's especially effective when clearing out the cockpit as in most cases there will be 3 people in there on the larger ships.

Thank you for this guide. It has everything I needed to find out. Great job, 04AM! I've watched a number of videos about how to bord ships, and they have all said to take out the shields first and then the engines, and after doing that you should be able to board. But I have never been able to board. It doesn't matter how high or low my difficulty setting is, it always ends with either my ship being blown to pieces, or the ship I wanted to board being blown up. Now I understand what the problem is, more than anything else I've done wrong: Use EM weapons. I never did that, but now I'm going to. 😊

@bradbradford8576 4 месяца назад

Quick tip, not sure if everyone knows it but it took me a bit to notice... when you're routing power quickly and trying to max out a weapon or shields for example, just hold the button down and it'll fill all the way, or as far as it can with what power is available. Works the same to completely empty it

@freakgib 8 месяцев назад

If you want to steal the ship easily and quickly, then do this: when you are docked and have eliminated everyone, sit in the captain's chair. Then go to the menu and make that ship your home ship, also register it-this is cheaper in space than when you do it at a vendor. Once you have done that, exit the menu and DON'T undock, but BOARD your old ship. Then go to your old ship's captain chair, go to the menu, and make it your home ship again. You're done! You've stolen a ship. Now you can undock and fly, and find other ships.

@SimmerCK 8 месяцев назад

Can you take energy away from turret weapons to prevent them from firing?

@JemearlSmith 8 месяцев назад

Yes you can, but the timing can be tricky. I keep my turret weapons highlighted on the power track for my ship, and when I knock the ship's shields down I hold the down arrow (or down D pad) and after a second all of the power drains from my turret weapons. Not many folks know you can de-power something quickly by just holding the arrow/D-pad down for a full second instead of taking the power away one bar at a time. @@SimmerCK

@pyromethious 7 месяцев назад

@@JemearlSmith , yeah, that's a new one for me for sure. I was dying too fast in fights and raced to get turrets. Now THEY are dying too fast and I often don't get to board either because my turrets softened everyone up too much or my manual weapons (missiles / guns) do too much damage in one volley. I think I may just see if there's a turret that is more of a suppressor (leave everything around me disabled) and adjust my manual weapons so that I can better disable / destroy depending on which I fire.

@patrickfarrell7963 9 месяцев назад

I find using vanguard particle beam as the primary weapon and then using a power swap for when their shields are out for maximum power for the EM guns. I make sure that it takes 12 units of power worth of particle guns (6 in total) and 12 units of power for the EM guns (4 in total "barring no skills in ship upgrades"). I don't even use the targeting and once the shields are gone it's free range to rapidly disable and swiftly dock. Earlier levels I found myself having to eject the contraband into space until I discovered I can store it at a bass until I learned how to have shielded cargo. Anyway, there's a lot of fun ways to do it however disabling without using EM is what the targeted systems are for.

To take a ship, have only 1 remaining ship, shoot out engines with targeting skill, 500m board. Kill everyone, sit in pilot seat, go to menu and bottom left for ship options, make hom ship, register it. You should either be able to redock with your original ship, or just jump to the Den. At the den modify the ship, add a porthole or something, everything will be put into the hold, sell it at the trade authority. Then go elsewhere and sell the ship if you don't want to keep it.

@JohnVanderbeck 9 месяцев назад

You don't NEED target locking as I discovered in my first play through when the story mission wanted me to disable a ships engines and I didn't have target locking skill, but if you don't have it you need to DESELECT The target or else your shots will always go to center of mass. With the target deselected they go where the circle is and you can manually target anything you want.

@04AMofficial 9 месяцев назад

The problem is, on higher difficulties the ships will blow up before the engines or other parts you want to take down first, so target lock is quite essential. Especially if you want to make it a safe board - to disable weapons as well

It’s also broken Sarah’s and Sam’s missions as you cannot do what they tell you to do as no enemies spawn… but the weird thing is you can board the Starborn ships… except they are crap.

It literally takes 1/10th of the time and effort of disabling all systems. Plus when you steal it, all the weapons and grav drive are jacked up! I guess if your doing a super serious, realistic run then it would probably make sense to disable the weapons first, I guess. Ship jacking is one of my favorite things in this game, brilliant move by the devs imo.

Try Hard and Very Hard. You'll have a much harder time capturing ships ^^ thats why taking out weapons is recommended before you fly in that 500m boarding range as you might get blasted to pieces when you do. This is for a safe guarantee boarding strategy to secure what you want, not to take unneccessary risks to die or blow up the enemy craft to lose your shots

@vaporjoes 8 месяцев назад

Yeah unless your bugged (along with 30% of the users) where basically you can board and there is NOTHING on board. No mobs, no contraband. Cant get in ships that are landed either. They need ot fix this crap.

The Registration fee is bullsh-t. It makes ship stealing worthless, so you have to loot the ship first to make any real profit from selling it.

You don't have to disable their weapons. Disabling the engines is enough to be able to dock

@04AMofficial 8 месяцев назад

True, but try doing that on certain ships, they kill you before that happens so THEN its recommended to first take out their guns, then the engine safely

@raveporn 9 месяцев назад

You don't explain how to target engines vs shields, etc., or how you toggled between them, which is why I clicked on the video in the first place, all you do is say it can be done and then you do it without explanation of HOW TO do it???

I keep blowing the ship

@arthurdavis9341 9 месяцев назад

gotta go into targeting mode ASAP when you get locked. If you do too much damage before that, they're cooked. Go straight for the engines or shield and then dock. If you start with any other system and THEN do the shield/engines, you're gonna do too much damage and destroy the ship.

You don't desscribe how to mount the suppressor weapons you bought. Useless to me without that info.

@04AMofficial 9 месяцев назад

Bruh, just attach them to your spaceship? XD

@williamreidboyd2944 9 месяцев назад

@@04AMofficial Well I couldn't finsd a way to do that. But I sorted it. I went to a Ship Technician and chose Upgrade. This brings up a menu with your current weapons at W0, W1, and W2. Selecting one of these brings up a list of weapons available and happily the Spark Suppressor was one of them. Very easily done. This was at Jasmine Durano at the Key mentioned by you. Don't know if every Ship Technician offers it. I imagine they will. I need to level up to get the Targeting skill you mentioned and then I'll have a go at the rest of your video. Excellent video. Thanks so much.
