Starsector - Spindle vs Massive 4 Super-Mess Fleets 

@Silent_Society - Thank you for the kind words~ In terms of your suggestion that is likely something that won't happen in these types of videos - at least not **right** now that is. **HOWEVER** - I *am* in the process of creating a more playthrough style series - which would do exactly what you suggested~ So I hope that you will enjoy that when I start uploading it :) *But*, I will consider doing this for a future saves, which might happen soon in all honesty anyways, as while Spindle is fun - I prefer being able to be super aggressive which the Gown is not very good at being in light of it's lack of speed haha~

Also, mess are just really fun to kill, they generally remain kinda hardISH to kill, even when you have super OP stuff, they get really spammy :)

@echoeversky - While I appreciate you trying to give me tips, the Silken Banshee is **very** fragile. Having it guard either Gown would make it liable to go into the frontline far more often (and thus, I would have to babysit it significantly more often). That aside, Guard orders tends to never work out well for me when I want them to. I've lost many of a ship by using guard orders, only for those ships to end up on the other side of the map with no support and being surrounded by enemy ships.

@Zygorg - If you are talking about the white text named "Silver Prevailing" or "Teal Ancient" Those are Epta AI Cores, which I believe "talk" via Combat Chatter Mod. If you aren't then it's just Combat Chatter that does that on it's own.

@thx10050 - Uhm...So here's the thing...If you had watched the final Minute of the video I show the loadouts for all 3 ships used. I even hover over most of the custom hullmods for a brief moment so you could pause and see what they do *exactly* 😅 I don't do this anymore, instead I post screenshots of ship loadouts in my discord in a special channel there. If you are asking *specifically* only about the weapons, there's only 3 L-Slot energy weapons in Sclartech's arsenal. I'm assuming you are talking about the rapid-fire weapon that shoots those blueish balls - I think those are called Seam Ion Pulsars? Disruptors? I can't quite remember the name. But Scalartech only has 3 L-Slot Energy weapons in their Arsenal and it's *probably* not the Stitch Beamlance or the Ruffle Beam Repeater you are talking about so there's only 1 other option.

@louisgaston2591 - I did tell you to look closely at the previous Spindle video, as if you looked at the kill feed you could see the Epta A.I Talking 😆Couldn't really hide that haha~ But yeah, I noticed a very distinct lack of "Oh no, I overloaded" moments that used to happened where overloading against Mess typically meant death because of the death beams they had. But hey...I'm not gonna complain, it made the fight more do-able because if my 2nd Gown had died at any point other than the very end (last 4ish minutes I'd wager) I would've had a very bad time. The only reason I had not taken any real damage myself was because the 2nd gown was there to tank and pull aggo so I could pull back to vent. So needless to say, if it had died early or mid-way through the fight - it would've been a much different video haha~ Though like I point out in the description, I do plan on editing and posting my failed run with just 2 Gowns - though I think it might've been against a slightly weaker Super-Mess fleet (I believe 3 fleets, with 2 Radiants). It was an interesting run, but it's 12 minutes long and this video was already pushing 20m. Not to mention I feel like most people will click off after the main fight is over. So now it will just be a little bonus for my discord server members 😅 But in terms of Pure/Corrupted/Guerilla Exotic Chips, I just haven't been very lucky. Sometimes at the start of the game I'll look at the Exotica Market and they'll be selling a Pure or Guerilla chip, but those things are expensive - especially early game as iirc they cost 250k. for just a basic Exotic chip, I believe the variants can be up-to 500k if I'm not mistaken? It has been a long time since I last saw one in the market so I could be wrong. But do not worry, I am well aware of how much better a Pure or Guerilla chip is compared to a basic variant~ It's just that I haven't gotten one that would actually be useful for the Gown. Iirc I believe I have a few Corrupted/Pure Exotic chips for phasefield drive, and some other less-than-useful exotics. If you are talking about the new format for scripting dialogue, than I do appreciate your kind words~ I was dying inside a little while scripting it ;-; but if people enjoy it, then I suppose I don't mind it too much~ As for LOST_SECTOR, I've had this mod the entire time I've made videos, if I'm not mistaken if you go back all the to my 1st Legios Infernalis video I believe it might be in the description under my mods list. I'm not sure it adds any bosses, but it does add the Enigma Fleets, there might be *a* special fleet that has a special Enigma ship in it though but I don't *quite* remember haha~ It's been a while since I really interacted with the mod aside from the occasional time an Enigma Fleet decides it wants to throw itself against my fleet in hyperspace haha~

@hidefreek6905 - Yeah you can~ but the main body of this Gown is already a monster with how many S-Mods it has. If I added S-Mods to the wings it would probably be overkill at that point haha~. I don't think I could anyways unless I grinded ship XP for a loooooong time. Think I would need well over 1 mill ship XP or more to get another S-Mod on *one* of the modules, and then probably double that for 1 more on the other module. I might be wrong but I don't think Progress S-Mods behaves too much differently with multi-module ships.

@@AstralSpace_ I think the wings modules have the same S-mod slot as the base module. And if you use progress S-mods to unlock the maximum threshold, The wings modules also get these benefits as well. (But still needs xp to install the mod)

@twls153 - Indeed so~ Gowns are Super-capitals for a reason :) (Not as big as good ol' Solvernia though haha~)

@epcfal - It is the Silken Banshee from the Howling Banshee bounty, it is indeed a ship added by ScarlarTech (As mentioned, it's a Bar Bounty mission) if you beat the bounty, you should be able to salvage it for your own fleet. I am unsure what the prereqs. it has for unlocking - but the fleet it comes with isn't super difficult so I wouldn't imagine it to be super high requirements in terms of FP and Level. Hopefully that helps :)

@@AstralSpace_ Nice. Are there any more neutrino ships? Oh and does it have it's signature armor?

@@epcfal - I'm not really super sure what you mean 😅. It's been a super long time since I did this video and since I last played with/looked at ScarlarTech ships in general so I really don't remember much ;-; Sorry I can't really answer your question 🫠

@overdramaticpan - Yes, Mess are from HMI - but these ones in particular are in a special unmarked warning beacon system to the far north west of the sector. They tend to use mainly infected Remanent ships over the typical ships you see in normal mess fleets. However, as you may notice - they don't have the same systems as normal drone ships (like the fact that the Mess-Infected Radiants have Burn-Drives instead of the phase skimmers or w/e they are called). They are quite a bit more deadly than normal mess fleets, well if you don't have really strong ships - that is. Shoot actually, even with really strong ships you can't really turn your brain off during the fight otherwise you get swarmed and die haha~ I forget what the system was called, and I don't know if the name is always the same (probably is), but it shouldn't be too hard to find if you look around where I pointed. It'll be pretty obvious when you find it, as I mentioned before it has no danger level assigned to it.

@@AstralSpace_ alright! Thanks.

@cemoguz2786 - I don't understand what this means. But I agree.

Because I can, and because I personally find it fun. I apologize that you didn't enjoy it, chuck that up to differing views on what fun is I suppose.😅 Also do tell how you think I mis-handled this fleet...I genuinely have no clue what you are on about haha.

@TheRastil - Completely and totally balanced - as all mods should be :)
