#Everspace ancient glyph full#

This combination essentially uses the 3 most broken Glyphs that are not named 'Ancient Weapon'. Needs testing, but it seems good in theory. It's an extremely consistent setup that does not rely on RNG, but it's slow af.

You're in full control of the risk you take.

Sensory Overload, Ancient Structures, Fuel Conservation Get the maximum distance with the fuel you have while being able to do multiple jumps in a row without fuel. You're not able to jump that often without using fuel, but with some extra fuel you should get to Sector 7 if the game gives you access to 1-2 temples.įull consistency. Sure, this combination requires you to kill enemies to maintain your hull, but it's unlikely that you will ever run out of fuel.įuel Conservation, Headstart, Ancient Structures Jump in, kill an enemy, collect it's fuel, jump out.

This setup relies on Nanobots to maintain your 'ammo' instead of Equalizer, but that risk is negated by consistency through skipping multiple sectors.Īncient Weapon, Equalizer, Fuel Conservation Sadly AW + Equalizer is completely absurd, leaving you with a choice to make.Īncient Weapon, Headstart, Ancient Structures I personally dislike Headstart as the first sector is only 4 systems (75 fuel) anyway and Ancient Structures can help you to skip more than that. It's your decision if you go for consistency first and RNG later (Headstart) or reduced RNG overall (Ancient Structures). The golden standard of Everspace speedrunning. So out of the 4060 combinations there are like maybe 10 that are fine for speedrunning.Īncient Weapon, Equalizer, Headstart OR Ancient Weapon, Equalizer, Ancient Structures Sensor Jamming: Banned on, as it's a Kickstarter Backer exclusive. You will rarely use secondary weapons and you don't have time to aim. Let me make it clear again: You will rarely fight enemies.īeeline: Tier 3. You don't boost & shoot that much.ĭamage Bonus: Tier 3. Meh on Gunship, useless on the other ships.Įnergy Bonus: Tier 3. Usually, you jump in, boost around, jump out. You won't collect many ressources in your run, and you certainly won't craft any weapons. Fine if you don't have Equalizer available yet.ĭevastator: Tier 3. Fine on Gunship, pretty useless on the other ships. Pretty strong with the Ancient Weapon and Leech or Equalizer, but you will rarely fight enemies. Pair it with Equalizer, jump until 3+ of your ship's systems are damaged, use that damage buff from SI to kill the ancients at the temples faster.ĭaredevil: Tier 2. It helps a lot with finding jump suppressors & Fuel faster, but is not as helpful on lower difficulties as Service Stations are more common there. On Easy you'd be better off using something else. It essentially cuts down on RNG to get consistently good times on Normal & Hard. You waste time every jump but save so much more time overall because you don't have to collect that much fuel. Jumping takes a bit longer but it adds consistency and is almost mandatory on non-AW runs on higher difficulties. Random allies spawning in? Who cares?įuel Conservation: Tier 1. You want as few jump suppressors as possible.Īncient Friends: Tier 3. You want to carefully select your route, this Glyph negates that. Awesome with the ARC-9000, but how often will you use that? You need all your HP for jumps without fuel. It's op with the Ancient Weapon, but you will rarely fight enemies during your run.īerserker: Tier 3. Negates the damage you might take from jumping without fuel. It allows you to skip 4 systems (Sector 1) and therefore saves 100 fuel, so it adds consistency to your run by saving like 2-3 minutes, but it's a wasted slot after Sector 2.Įqualizer: Tier 1. This Glyph removes a huge chunk of RNG from an already RNG-heavy game. Ancient Structures allow you to skip whole sectors, but it's still random if you stumble upon 0, 1, or even 2 ancient temples. This weapon is so broken it deserves it's own category.Īncient Structures: Tier 1. This guide aims at sorting the 28 devices you can select and the 4060 different combinations possible into tier 1 (strong), tier 2 (fine) or tier 3 (useless).Īncient Weapon: Tier 0. As you only have 3 slots but 11 Glyphs and 17 subroutines exist in the game, it may be hard to select which 3 to use for your speedrun.
