I would like to get some feedback from other pilots using Sirius vrs Draconis tech.
My results of testing on a Draconis sniper:

Buff: Sirius ZP Astral Attack Buff vs Draconis Dynamizer Attack Charge
No difference. In fact - it appeared that the Sirius Attack buff often showed less damage when used with the orbital strike.

AB: ZP Singularity vs Draconis Drifter
Indentical : same length of time - same cool down – same distance - same speed.

Armor: Hilarious - the difference is 1 or 2 health microbars. (There are 67 microbars of health)

Conclusion: Not worth the time or money spent for tech so far.. Opportuntity for improvement - great.

I would want to introduce 2 new factors:

* Price
* Time to get

The price of sirius tech is lower then the draconis rares, they are maybe much easier to get too.

true, but I don't think rares are easier then normal tech.

You can get rares yourself if you got patience but in sirius, you can't even kill 1 pirate there ( the ones that drops bp's) solo, you always need someone else or beter, a sq, in order to get bp's.
As you know, pilots also got a life beside PG so it's quite hard to find some pilots to shoot things...

Pssst GUYS!

Stick to the question please. ;)

Before you know it there's post after post that people have to wade through to get any answers. I just want to know if anyone has done any testing Drac vs Sirius and what the results are.

We tested ZP Roaster Blaster > Rubbish > all pilots I know re-installed DDB
We tested Ancient Draconis Attack turret > Rubbish , no difference with Draconis
I tested ZP Nova Rockets > Rubbish > do marginal more damage BUT miss more EVEN with aimcomputer
I tested HAL 8000 Attack Droid > Rubbish, no difference noticable > I took it off

The Armour > on normal ships (methanoid) improvement

The Ancient Armour on a Parsec marginal improvement, and not worth the amazing 675000 Cryo.
Worse thing > The normal storm is just as strong with methanoid as a Parsec with Ancient.
It's a huge rip off. Do not buy it.

tested few on storm but as this was before the last update i have no idea if they changed it.
nevertheless some results.

-sirius col vs drac gold col on quarc too bout 10+ seconds longer= sirius bp not better than drac gold
-aim computer (just tested with drac blue rockets) got mazing result of 4x missing rockets one after the other on gazica low lvls= sirius aim comp stinks imo ( unless the other also misses have not reinstalled to test )


only worthwhile blue bp so far imo are sirius blue mines if u dont have the golds since the golds are a hassle to get ( took me 4 days to even get 1 part bp; sirius was 5/5 ,drac 16/16 as i know )

Answer:
- Ancient armor is much stronger now, since i tested it in pvp, it does make a difference.

- The bps, the useful ones are blaster, rocket, sb, repair droid, and ofc mines, it's cus of the damage... so each ring got there own blue prints... first is Oololyte, 2nd Dolomyte, for each next ring the items get better and on last you find either ancient bps or something else... Buff has never been useful so draconis nor sirius 1 is good, the aim pc, ofc it's lame gosh everyone knows that, that aim pc ain't gold, none rare aim pc ain't better then rare!
The rep turret's should be slightly better maybe by 1% or 2%...
The Afterburner won't make any draconis ships faster! No higher system abs will make you faster then the rare afterburner the same system as the ship!

- Bp drop rate is ridiculous, gosh around 2-3 ppl, yes 2-3 ppl to take down 1 boss in first ring, you need 6 parts! there is 2-3 ppl! that is 18 parts! you won't get a bp for each kill! Bp booster won't effect the sq! Didn't i see somewhere ppl saying 1 unit might drop more then 1 bp? This is a lie! Gosh! yes maybe with bp booster? but do PG(dev )expect everyone to get 1?

Conclusion:
- Yes the first ring bps ain't that strong, but the feather you get the stronger the items get!
- Ancient/ Parsec(Ancient armor) ships? You make me laugh! the armor should be around 500-1000% stronger then the draconis ships, what will happen if we get to ancient, what!? If for each ring the npc get's stronger, then the sirius/ parsec ships will be destroyed! This is a serious joke!
- Drop rate is lame! they have decreased the drop chance since they thought by making the npc weaker the drop rate should be less! Do you want this game to die PG(dev)?
- I really don't want to see bps higher then 100k cryonite, ccoutns for ancient/ rares!
- Since the system ain't finished yet, do they need to listen carefully and I know they do not listen to the most important parts either PG(dev) should know it to.

P.S: This update ain't as good as I did hope for!

These topics about testing tech, ship etc should be post at the Board:

Library of the Colonists

Not here on Feedback, nor on General Discussions.

I will move this, and other similar topics there.

the sirius tek is not worth it, bairly stronger then drac tek, yet i loose 20% cryo on hive and gazica and 15% in sirius, its not good, i got these to grind not suck all the cryo out of grinding...

You loose the 15% on Sirius cause you got installed Ancient Armor what is a Sirius Higher tech, and thats same reason your penalty is higher on lower systems. I believe penalty remains same as before with Meta armor.

if you mean when your ship get's destroyed, the system is level not what ship you got...

in case of parsec it should affect access to a sytems missions and also cryo penalty cause armour defines the parsec planetary system definition and ancient armour is sirius tech as i know, so tht assumption has logic.

No it is not wrong, as I told, I know Sirius Pilots in Parsec class ships, with NO Sirius tech installed, and loosing 15% even at Sirius on lvl 1 and 2 belts.
Only Sirius installed, Ancient armor.

Of course you will have penalty with any Sirius Tech installed, no matter if you have Meta armor, your tech is still cause of penalty in cry loss on lower systems.

Will do same effect, Parsec with Ancient armor without any Sirius items,
or Parsec in Meta armor, with Sirius tech. It doesn't matter, one or other will create penalty on lower systems.
It's exactly same thing if you go with Antares ship to Vega, or Gemini to Antares.
