It's a common question as to what the good ship designs are, and here's my copy/paste answer: Focused Arc Emitter / Carrier / Marauder / Whirlwind. It also gives you a reason to build a science nexus when Focused Arc Emitters still takes 61 months and Improved Battleship Hulls takes 64 months after you have 3 tech worlds and 5 tech habitats. Also, since they all have a cool down of approximately 8 ticks, average. 6. 84 Avg. Spiritualist FE fleets have even crazier 1/4 and up to 1/5 hull ratios.

Spinal Mount: Arc Emitter Carrier Core: Missile/Missile/PD/PD/H/H Artillery Stern: Kinetic Arty is still beating neutron cruisers, even a fleet of them worth 10k more than the BBs Edit: and these are the BB fleets I'm throwing together after taking your advice about the shield hardeners, the carriers still winning. It can be a good option when going pure energy, as it will punish shield-heavy opponents that Neutron Launchers struggle with. Starcomet. So even a complete newbie can beat the auto-designer just by using those OP weapons everywhere they can (which are: Tachyon Lance, Giga Cannon, Focused Arc Emitter, Neutron Launcher, Kinetic Artillery, Advanced Strike Craft, and Devastator Torpedoes. I use battleships with neutrons on them. Two Focused Arc-Emitters, six strike craft slots, and four shield capacitors mean there aren’t many things that will worry an empire in control of a Juggernaut. Use Carrier computer. Even corvette swarms will faulter against them, as the battleships have such a range advantage that the arc emitters bring down such a large portion of the swarm. You either go with 4 Neutron Launchers or 4 Cloud Lightning. Arc Emitters are only good against the Contingency. Implementation could be a few different ways:There seems to be a slight issue in regards to the balancing of the Contingency crisis all in all. The Focused Arc Emitter is indeed a very powerful weapon. Focused Arc Emitter only is already a viable Battleship design, and it basically is not penalized at all by your change from the sounds of things, as Focused Arc Emitters do not require coordination. It's very effective at stunning groups of Creatures biting the hull from inside of the sub, which makes them stop damaging the. research_technology tech_arc_emitter_2. And 5x T5 large shields and 1 T5 armor. --------------. Helican Jul 19, 2016 @ 9:11am. Frankly after countless hours on Stellaris I don't have problems anymore figuring out which composition works better against enemies fleet; stellaris' meta isn't so complex. In 3.
