Tips And Tricks

• You don’t aim well? Then it is strongly recommended that you stick to weapons that feature high firing rates like the Pioneer’s Light Void Charges. Do not worry about the up-front damage since the damage-per-second is in essence the same for all weapons.
• Although the Gamma bonus is substantial, it is wise to get resource leads early in the game. 
• Be careful while using Point Defence since it costs energy and there is a cooldown period. 
• Once you have reached level nine, the maximum in-game level, go capturing the mines to delay the enemies’ progress. 
• Pay attention to the crew’s notifications since they will tell when your armour is broken
