So, I finally beat FTL tonight (albeit on Normal). As long as you're near a store or a repair shop, the first phase of the Rebel Flagship is probably the worst. But phase two seems like it could be a real bitch if you don't have much of a crew. This run in particular was all the proof anyone needs that luck is a huge part of this game. IMO, you really NEED at least one Rock dude, one Engi, two Mantis, and the Cloaking Device to really feel like you have a shot (at least, with the Kestrel, which is what I did it on). Cloaking is the best thing in the game, even if sometimes you'll feel like the computer knows when you're going to use it and just manages to fire JUST as it wears off. The big luck part for me came in getting a second burst cannon 2, which then meant I was firing like, 8-10 shots at a time, and combined with my fire beam (which starts fires in sections but doesn't pierce shields) it was a great 1-2 punch.
Just a fantastic game though. Huge sense of accomplishment, even on Easy. I honestly don't know how Normal is even doable.Comment
