This guide details the most effective Stratagems to unlock early as well as the best loadouts.
Explanation
1. Sous le “Ship Module” tab scroll down to the “Hanger” section and unlock “Liquid-Ventilated Cockpit” as soon as you can. This will reduce all Eagle stratagem cooldown time by 50%.
- This will allow you to basically spam Eagle Airstrikes constantly. This is the best all-rounder stratagem because of it’s 2 uses per cooldown and it’s overall quick cooldown.
2. Prochain, unlock either the Fusil sans recul ou Canon automatique as these are great against blindé cibles.
- Alternativement, Utilisez le Expendable Anti-Tank launcher, toutefois, you only get two shots pour un 70 second cooldown, so I just recommend using Recoilless Rifle and stay behind your teammates. It’s really easy.
3. Pour terminer, for turrets, la Sentinelle de mortier is extremely effective for long range engagements in defensive scenarios.
4. For the last stratagem, you can use whatever you want but I recommend going for more Eagle-based stratagems ou orbital-based stratagems or any defensive stratagems like the Relais générateur de bouclier or you can save up for the mini nuke (Bombe Aigle 500KG @ level 15).
Best Stratagem Unlocks
Fusil sans recul ou Canon automatique
- Fusil sans recul: A reloadable rocket launcher. Useful against armored aliens. (Unlocks at level 5).
Conseil: Shoot once at leg of a charger then use your primary weapon to shoot the exposed part of a Charger.
- Canon automatique: A fully-automatic cannon. Useful against armored targets. (Unlocks at level 10).
Conseil: Ça prend 5 shots to take out a Charger when shooting the head.
Noter: The Recoilless Rifle takes a while to reload solo. You can alternatively use the Expendable Anti-Tank Rifle (se débloque au niveau 3) ou la Canon automatique (se débloque au niveau 10)
- Frappe aérienne d'aigle
A group of bombs set off in a row, not specifically targeting enemies. (Unlocks at level 2).
Conseil: The Eagle Airstrike is a low cooldown and effective all-rounder stratagem. - Sentinelle de mortier
A turret that shoots shells, great for long-range battles. (Unlocks at level 8).
Conseil: Very good against the Automaton faction. Place it on top of tall rocks or any terrain with height so that enemies don’t destroy it. - Eagle 110M Rocket Pods or use Frappe de précision orbitale (unlocked at start of game)
A small cluster of bombs that target the largest enemy closest to the beacon. (Unlocks at level 10).
Other Useful Stratagems
- Frappe EMS orbitale – Useful for crowd control because it slows enemies. (Unlocks at level 5).
- Lance-grenades – Useful against Terminids to clear their hives.
A grenade launcher, powerful against low-levelled enemies. (Unlocks at level 5). - Sentinelle de fusée – Useful against heavily armored targets.
Automated turret that is powerful against armored enemies. (Unlocks at level 15).
Best Loadouts
ARMURE
- Against Terminids?
N'importe quel light armor as light armor provides increased sprint speed. Using light armor will allow you to kite/run away from the swarms. Light armor provides increased speed et pluie d'endurance at the coût of reduced armor rating. - Against Automatons?
N'importe quel heavy armor. Heavy armor provides increased armor rating at the coût of reduced vitesse et pluie d'endurance.
ARMES
- Primaire: Briseur (fusil à pompe)
This is probably the best weapon in the game at the moment.
A fully-automatic shotgun with a high rate of fire, excellent for controlling crowds. Requires frequent reloading. - Secondaire: Redeemer (pistolet)
A fully-automatic pistol with an extremely high rate of fire, allowing for efficient crowd control. - Grenade: User preference.
STRATAGEMS
- Early Game Set up (Under level 10):
Fusil sans recul, Frappe aérienne d'aigle, Frappe de précision orbitale (unlocks at start of game), Sentinelle de mortier. - “Fin de partie” Set up (Above level 15+):
Autocannon/Recoilless Rifle, Frappe aérienne d'aigle, Sentinelle de fusée, Bombe Aigle 500KG.
This is the best all rounder set up that I have found. If you want team based stratagems (par exemple., Relais générateur de bouclier) just replace the Eagle 500KG Bomb with whatever you want.
