ReRETRIBUTION

Showing off Solo Retribution potential. I even made a pretty terrible mistake early on where I got my ASS BLASTED, yet I still won in the end.
Obviously if you want the battle to end faster just deploy more things lol.

Orion device is the most hilarious booster I've ever seen. Pretty much the rocket jumping of Starsector.

Haha, chainguns and devastators go brrrr This might be the new ultimate drive-by ship. Looks fun as heck

[@giperka]

loved it. peak piloting. query: how did you not shit yourself at some points related to being 98% fluxxed and having your shield up? there's like 2 times where i certainly would shit *myself* and disable shields but you didn't, you, my man, have balls of steel

[@TheSweetSpirit]

I'm just accustomed to feeling out how much incoming damage is headed to my shields, and also the pause button gives me a lot of confidence to drop my shields when needed. The pause button helps a lot, as well as just keeping an eye on enemy weapons.

[@ptolemaicfoxxo3032]

I love the retribution, turns point defense into point offence with how fast it is lol Edit: I once 1v1ed and beat an onslaught by ramming it in the face and flipping it just enough to be able to get behind it and delete it as a fellow devastator retribution fan

[@epser5842]

i hate the single LMG you have there

[@xzardas541]

Its an offense to the god.

[@jackthomson6648]

LMAO this ship is basically a capital-sized shotgun and I'm all about it

[@dennylukman1801]

If invictus Ludd's brick, then Retribution is Ludd's shieldbreaker. The hammer-class torpedo is called Ludd's hammer, and might as well call Prometheus Mk2 Ludd's Postal Service.

[@Voitan]

This is literally the space battleship Orion the Pentagon & NASA thought of building during the Cold War. Does it have Casaba "Howitzers" and a bajillion nuclear missiles?

[@Xsomono]

This ship looks like its a fukin BLAST to play xD I haven't tried the new patch yet but having seen it on KZbin I can't think of a single Starsector ship that is more memeable than this fucking treasure, not even IED go as hard as fart blaster. Can't wait to get my hands on it.

[@TheSweetSpirit]

Just wait until you see [REDACTED] then!

[@cunnysseur5739]

@@TheSweetSpiritIt’s honestly a shame that the [REDACTED] isn’t all that good with neural interface. Apparently it was optimized with the other [REDACTED] in mind, so I think there’s an issue with too little OP + the fact it doesn’t even have an omni shield.

[@TK-nn8jd]

@@cunnysseur5739 It's a glass cannon that melts when a heavy cruiser looks at it sideways (thus slipping around its 90 degree front shield), but it's not fun to be piloting a Hammerhead the first time you meet one of them high tech fart blasting its way right at your face.

[@rottenmeat5934]

All you need is cap. Vents are for people who aren’t firing fast enough.

[@AGenericFool]

Ok thats OP as fuck lol

[@burgylegrand3781]

Bro unironically listens to Mario Party-esque music 💀 Impressive build tho

[@TheSweetSpirit]

I regret it to this day

[@cooldud7071]

those small missile mounts looking very unloved

[@TheSweetSpirit]

I actually have a build that uses the missile mounts, but it sort of requires you to either abandon System Expertise or abandon fleet skills to get both Sysex and Missile Expertise. Without MsEx, I feel like it may be not worth devoting your resources to the missile slots. Idk, sabots are still really good lol.

[@cooldud7071]

@@TheSweetSpirit You could just spend 12 dp on single sabots in case you ever get in a pinch. I just like to have everything filled in.

[@ewanlee6337]

Its funny how messed the vent effect looks when you just boosted. So the build is too focus on shields and flux and just chuck on short range guns. The retribution is fun as hell but it’s unfortunate it needs to be built more like high tech ship than a low tech one.

[@TheSweetSpirit]

Yeah, the retribution follows a high tech gameplay style to a tee. It doesn’t really have the armor or range to armor tank, but its shields are salvageable. You can build for midrange instead of short range though. The build for that is Ballistic Rangefinder, Light Dual Autocannons and your choice of other weapons, though get 2 flaks

[@ewanlee6337]

@@TheSweetSpirit I hadn’t considered duel auto cannons. Do you find the medium range build to work well?

[@TheSweetSpirit]

@@ewanlee6337 I think it does, it even works for the AI. I have another video on my channel showcasing the LDAC Retribution build, but piloted by AI instead of me, who is piloting an enforcer (very, very badly)

[@hotdog9262]

@@TheSweetSpirit have you tried it with hangars, defensive targeting array and wasps. needs elite point defense

[@777CHEKIST777]

@@TheSweetSpirit A volley of Orion Driver and Hell Cannon turns Retribution from a melee fighter into a sniper. Literally, Hell Cannon projectiles fly a quarter of the entire battlefield, from one strategic point to another (like from a jamming point to a command point) at insane speeds.
