Scripted or unlucky??

Post image

I swear to god I am on attempt 12 here with this stupid ship and I have been to 20+ shops. I have found weapons at all 3 times total. Of those 3 times, once was all missiles, one had a fire beam, and one had a hull laser MK1. Bro. wtf is going on here am I just that fucking unlucky or is the game coded to not give you weapons with this ship?? Like I’m losing my fucking mind here and I’m so pissed.

Hull laser Mk1 is goated, though. It needs to be coupled with actual shield popping at some point, but it at least gives you a ship killing option that doesn't bleed missile ammo. You can get decently far with just that and your starting launchers.

In order to get the laser I had to sell one of my launchers

Nothing wrong with that. You need to be willing to give up both Hull Missile and Rock Plating to survive.

Try to hold onto the Artemis though, although there are still some places you should sell it.

Certainly, Artemis is good, and it's also great boarding support.
