The large system cores are obtainable from the larger Korath drones, and also their Worldships. (Including Hai and Wanderer ones).Īll the Korath factions have these, but they're the easiest to get from the Exiles. They serve the purpose of shielding, batteries, and, as a bonus, hull repair, in comparable or less space than equivalent shielding systems. They also have one more thing that's useful: system cores.

These are the best cooling systems in the game, hands down. This has made them very efficient at one thing (and one thing only). They care little for niceties such as not having their ships reach temperatures exceeding several thousand heat units. They are particularly fond of pushing people around with their turreted weaponry, which otherwise isn't very useful. These are the least deadly of the warlike Korath, and each of their raiders is roughly equivalent to, though probably stronger than, a human heavy warship. The exiles live to the right of the Syndicate and above the Ember Waste. If you have a strong enough fleet, you might be able to farm them. They also have an Unfettered faction which fights the normal Hai in one of their top-most systems. It is by far the strongest warship you'll get for some time. These, however, drain battery charge, a potentially more devastating tactic.įinally, we have the Shield Beetle, coming in at They have Ion Cannons, which are kind of like plasma cannons in the sense that they have a disabling effect on the target. Their shield regenerators are much smaller and much more powerful than human ones. Most of their stuff is just human stuff, but slightly smaller, more efficient, and cooler looking. They are found across the wormhole* in the Ultima Thule system, far North, to the right and down of Betelguese. The Hai are the first aliens that are willing to sell you their technology, that you can access without a jump drive. *cough* and also making sure they don't become too advanced *cough* The Quarg are also found in various other regions of the galaxy, protecting those species/groups that are (relatively) peaceful. *Excluding the Pug Arfectas' Gridefire turrets, but there are only 9 of those in existance, so. The batteries are ridiculously space efficient, necessary for the skylance's insane energy usage (that goes hand in hand with their insane DPS). The skylance is the most powerful (obtainable) weapon in the game.* (Yeah, we'll get the sprites for them eventually.) I have attached pictures of both of those. The Quarg are very advanced, and have super-effiecient technology, most notably their skylances and batteries. You want a Jump Drive so you can mess with the aliens and benefit from their technology. The Quarg are the chosen species of the Drak, the ultra-mysterious species that likely controls the galaxy's borders, keeping all the different species nice and segregated, so that they don't go to war with each other, or mess with each other's development. You'll find that one of the most advanced species in the galaxy is right at your doorstep.
