Flak + Charge Laser + Pike Beam isn't the greatest set of offense, just gotta hope it's enough. Sector 8: Sadly never found hacking, really wanted to use a multiple-beam setup on the flagship. Good call on the drone system, next store did have a defense drone. Finally found a store (had to look everywhere in the sector - this is one highly underrated aspect of 'never found weapons so RNG killed me' complaints - did you plan your path to look at every beacon to find the stores?) and bought cloaking, and also went with drone control even though it's just a system repair drone, could actually use that with no engi crew. Sector 6 Rebel over Mantis: Got enough offense, but could really use some defensive systems, took another 8-damage hull pounding from a ship with double missiles until it ran out. Sector 5 Pirate over Mantis Homeworlds, still not all that confident against Mantis boarders. Then boom, a FLAK, and we're set on weapons forever. Realized I should have kept one of the ion blasts instead of selling it, just as one projectile on one power to get through one shield layer, that use of an ion is fine. Sector 4 Slug Nebula or Abandoned are both bad choices, but I think I'm worse off against Slug high shields, can probably handle Lanius okay. At least a slaver gave a mantis next and a nebula event gave a human, so good for crew now. Even with that, took a fucking pounding on this fight, the bomb and missile hit me over and over, my first charge volley ALL MISSED, it also broke my engines so I couldn't run took fucking SEVENTEEN HULL DAMAGE before the ship ran out of missiles and bombs. Interesting choices I love the Halberd but really the right way to do this is the 4-shot charge laser, I already have a good beam, I need shield punchers. Sector 3 Pirate over Abandoned: Can barely deal with 2-shield ships, the two ion guns with max weapon skill can barely go fast enough to stack ion damage, but not happy about it of course. Got an evasion trainer, and a very nice one, with that chain laser speeding up to do it faster, also weapon and shield skill to boot. Sector 2 picked Nebula over Mantis, not sharp at dealing with boarders yet. Store trying hard to tempt me into more ions, but no we shall not bite on that, put the scrap into shields layer 2 instead. HA HA FUCK YOU shield hacking event YOU HAVE NO POWER HERE. Also you can fire the ions as soon as they charge, the ion will last just long enough for the pike to also hit, or if the ions miss then you also get a second shot shortly after the pike charges.

I learned how to use this ship quickly: like Engi A, the best target for the ion guns is WEAPONS, one ion hit takes a lot of time to recover.

Sector 1: Ooh nice free crew on the first fight, you go to piloting to put zoltan power on a real system of course. DO NOT be tempted by ion garbage, swap that out for bursts as soon as you can. Oh yeah, it's the one with the weak shields system, and two ion blasts with a pike beam. I don't even remember what this ship does, it's just a void of memory compared to the godly Zoltan A and terrible Zoltan C.
