TheMightyHercules I support this way too much

Like you should

Good boy/girl

nah, go learn history, this vid will wait for you patiently, but you don't want to fail history test, do you?

But If you fail history... You are doomed to repeat it.

@@Lathland exactly, so he can learn it first hand when it happens again

He's screwed if he doesnt realize this

@@Someone-lg6di I'm pretty sure he knows. He dealt with the unbidden in the past more time than I could remember.

second it. Avorion might be a nice diversion until the FTD update hits.

Man I really miss avorion

Avorion also just got its full release and actually left early access. Got me quite excited.

lonurad Eventually we will have enough people to flood the comments!

@@rhino6630 I like your thinking. One day I will get to attempt 365 there is no way he can ignore

Whats avorian?

(i'm pretty sure he did read this comment already) so what's the point?_?

annoying him until he gives up?

What do you mean? What's happening?

@@endorsedvampire7581 There is a Multiplayer livestream over the weekend for federations, I found out about it through Aspec and i was hoping lathrix would be in it. After watching Laths most recent FtD video, im assuming he isnt as he will most likely be preparing for England

You mean the two systems that are to the north-west of the main bastion in this episode? They both have bastions and are near a gateaway like the first main bastion, so are easily defended by the fleet. Other entrances are not easily accessible yet and have no been any real issue outside of the east which I basically gave up on straight away in the video :P

@@Lathland God talked to me!!! Still, this is as fun as yellow dog in a room with speech bubble "this is fine" Waiting for big update!

First, thank you so much for the suggestion! I used to use disruptors/cloud lightning a lot for the unbidden, until I saw a few people run the numbers on kinetic weapons vs ignore shield weapons and since then have swapped over, In older series I've used them countless times vs unbidden and scourge! Also long explanation incoming, as I wanted to double check It all myself haha! So this is mostly for myself, fact checking! :D The issue with Disruptors is that they cannot be used in the large slots of battleships and such, this means they are very short range and make the craft using them vulnerable to being hit back, the main weakness of the Unbidden is that they are medium/short ranged and you can completely destroy them with 0 damage taken if you out range them. Even with cloud lightning which can be used in the L slot and also ignores shields It's still so short ranged you need WAY more damage for the same effect. Using the X weapon slot disruptor weapon (The arc emitter?) Is good however, but when stacked with kinetic weapons It seems more fitting to just stick to the kinetic cannon X weapon which is again longer ranged & helps to stack with the other kinetics, though honestly I think perhaps the Arc may be better, I've just never ran the numbers for the +50% shield damage and +25% hull damage the cannon gets! The other issue is sheer lack of damage, though the Unbidden are 2/3 shields and 1/3 hull, the damage of the disruptors are still so low that the kinetic equivalent still wins out. E.g. the Rank 3 (best) disruptor does 6.22 base dps in the M slot with a range of 50, whereas the Gauss cannon does base 16.30 dps but does 50% bonus damage vs shields and has a range of 75. So although the disruptors are essentially cutting the target's health by 2/3 as they ignore the shields, they are doing less than 1/3 of the damage and at a shorter range making them a bit worse for general use. All this and the Kinetic Artillery, the L slot kinetic get a +100% damage vs shields and +25% hull damage at the cost of -50% armour damage, and since the armour doesn't apply here they are seriously high DPS vs Unbidden, along with their range of 120 base!

@@Lathland Alright, Have they added Particle weapons or Hard-Light weapons?

Those two weapon types, becides the Kinetic weapons are known for not caring about shields or armour.

Then how do you expect to get anything done?

@@Bloodlyshiva i don't know but it would be funny to see him try

Kinda interesting 😅

Use a psionic species and get psi jump drives for max unbidden chance. Any jumpdrives help but psi drives helf 2x more. Or i should say LESS

@@snowdrop9810 Thank you! I have also never done a psionic ascension. That may be why.

@@Unknownsoldier740 my first playthrough unbidden came and spawned on top of my Capitol. It was a massacre for me

Yes you are
