I wasn't intending at the outset for any kind of variant play. I read about this tactic over on Reddit, went to try it out, and won five consecutive runs on Hard with a mix of Stealth ships.Īnyway, on to the run. With this tactic, the Stealth ships become immensely more survivable in the early game. But if the drone were pointed at something inconsequential like sensors or doors, the right move would be to let that shot hit and save the cloak for when it will also dodge an enemy weapon along with the drone. Here, my cloaking and weapons are both in the line of fire, so NOW is the right time to cloak. A drone always shoots at the exact center of its target room, so usually there are only a very few possibilities. Pause at the right moment and look at the drone's alignment to figure out its target. Watch the enemy drone and cloak only when it is about to shoot something important. This can be true, but actually quite rarely, not nearly as much as folks say. An early enemy drone can cut you to pieces before you ever get to fire your weapons or escape from the fight, in such a way that there's nothing possible to do to save yourself. The plight of the shieldless Stealth ships is often cited as the biggest random-number-based swing in FTL. Stealth A is the ship of the day, and I'll say a few words on that before getting into the shieldless run itself. Here's a report of a shieldless win on Hard difficulty in FTL.
