addedStar Traders and captains, another update has sailed into port. We've continued with the addition of new Contact types, increasing the variety of gear in Salvage and added a new high level defensive ship component. We've also been working to keep with report bugs and fix typos.
addedTo celebrate that final march to Update #400, we're going to get on a binge of new outfits here - so stay tuned for that.
addedNew Contact: Antiquities HunterBe sure you're ready when you consider working for the new Antiquities Hunter. This dangerous schemer will be sure to send you salvaging at dangerous sites across the galaxy, will sell you Rumors, offers Scavenger recruits and offers a pathway to the Black Market if their Traits align with it.
changedNew Salvage GearBoth the XK Cyclone Ammo and Tarbark Wireset come with nice Initiative bonuses (+1 and +2) as well as other Defensive Bonuses. The XK Cyclone Ammo presents a unique advantage to both ranged Accuracy as well as Defensive dice. Happy hunting, Salvagers!
addedNew Ship ComponentThe top of the line Duranium Coating IV comes with best-in-class Armor and Shield and matches the other Duranium Coating's reduction of ship damage during orbital operations. In addition, the DC IV adds Void and Radiation Resistance and Craft Defense - so for a captain looking to combine the orbital operations capabilities with more combat oriented ship, the added cost of DC IV will be worth a look.
