Just had the best run on Stealth A
Posted: Sat Dec 22, 2012 6:55 pm
Got shields in second sector, maxed out reactor in 5, got every system and subsystem maxed out (Except for engines and shields), and had a great selection of weapons to choose from, in addition to the Stealth weapons augment. I ended up using a Hull Beam, Hull Smasher Laser, and a Laser Mk 2. On the seventh sector, I found a shop with a pre-loader! I took only 4 hull damage on the boss, and ended up saving the federation, in addition to wiping out most ships in 2 volleys. Also, during the boss I got the Phase Ship achievement and unlocked Stealth B (Although it seems kinda bad). I had way too much scrap on my hands back then...
Best run I had ever, successwise, but the game seemed to count my second slug B run as best.

Not the easiest ship to succed with but it can pack quite a punch with it's minibeam in the earlier sectors. Good thing you found lot's of decent weapons for later.
It's main advantage is also it's disadvantage. If you can find a replacement weapon for the Glaive early on, wou'll have a much easier time. Watch out for your engines, they aren't nearly as fast as the ones on the Nesasio, and you'll probably need to upgrade them before you buy shields.
