Title. Adding this one here, despite Xin being already aware (see: #pss2-general-💬 message) as Rabblefin and Matrice are whining that they are losing to the strategy I, Tush'Korr, and others are presently using ... so, for the record, let it be stated this is also a known bug, and that, to date, nothing has been done about it despite, CEO quote from January 27, "oh i missed the dead crew boosting rooms that's a easy fix adding that to the list too"
#Dead crew continue to provide room bonuses

i feel like this will either be a silent patch- where u wake up seeing that u were defeated by someone, cause ur engines dropped evasion
or it will be among the other bugs that dont get solved until a very long time..like after level 13 is released
What absolutely blows my mind is that this 'easy fix' currently has taken nearly a full month
No wonder any difficult issues still remain present lmao, oh my
if u attack this guy's ship, 99% evasion and dead crew..im scared to go against it anymore.
i think his weakness is like as i mentioned earlier.. a gunner ship with heavy gunners crew on lasers
There are several strategies to deal with a build like mine. Full-on laser gunship is one that works well (like Tetra and Pivo). Droid board also works (like the Taiwanese dude.) Boarding the O2 section also can work (like Tzi). It’s a strong build, but it is not invincible.
have u seen kevinZ's ship?
i dont think anyone has lasers that hit has hard as his
Nope. Haven’t seen his. But I promise you, Tetra’s and Pivo’s and Tush’s lasers hit plenty hard. Tzi’s aren’t a joke either but not at the same level as those 3
he has like 5 horses all with blue/purple tier gunner gear and most crew are 3 stacked in laser rooms
Similar to those 3
they have gunner horses too?
Some I think? Not all crew
But yeah rushing all laser rooms is a strong P2W strategy
It is not unbeatable - and I will beat it - but it takes something very specific to beat
doesnt it like melt ur shield really fast?
and they will laser ur engines through ur evasion
I was so close with Tetra in the BotD. Had I not screwed up power AI I would have won
This is the main issue
You need to destroy or depower their lasers before they can do meaningful engine damage. If you do, you win.
That’s the particular DPS race in this kind of battle
As once their lasers are down, if you still have 100% evasion, you’re guaranteed to win
so u would need to board better then but if they run lasers and they use the anti-o2 strategy
then it becomes very hard for u to break it down
That’s what Tush is doing
And he does it very very well
I have a plan for him too, but it’s a more complicated plan
cause u cant board reactors or lasers and his dead crew leave the reactors super powerful
lasers*
*live crew can’t board
Anyway look at Tush’s build sometime - he dropped trophies massively and is hiding his real build strength - but he has a juggernaut
Possibly best use of split O2 layout I have seen in game
Many design choices that are incredibly smart
Including splitting lasers in O2 / non-O2 sections
He and Tzi are the two folks I know I can’t reliably crack right now
not as scary looking from a peak
Pivo and Tetra I will crack next time when I don’t screw up
Oh don’t let the whaling amount fool you
You’ll see if/when you face him
this should scare you
Except it doesn’t as I know exactly how to win
Against that layout
but those horses tho
Doesn’t matter
probably already wpn% trained and such

@restive spear can’t put in another ticket, so calling your attention to this thread which I opened a while back
Xin acknowledged it on Jan 27 (#pss2-general-💬 message) … At this point, if it’s still in-game, is it a bug or a feature?
Let me raise this one with the team again
it get worse ( after droids repair room, bonus reappear)
it should be fixed in next client update.
