Martyrdom+strength of the fallen combo?

February 21, 2013 6:28:23 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

This probably wont work unless used in addition to existing fleet composed of various non scout unites. that being said, wouldnt be awesome to suicide 100 scouts into an enemy cap ship or titan, or even just an enemy factory and a the SAME TIME...wait for it...waiit for it. BUFF YOUR ERADICA AT THE SAME TIME!!!!???

  1. the stack is limited to 5 times.... 5 scouts will do...
  2. There is a far more deadly thing out  there.... Revenge from beyond.

Martyrdom is completely useless...first, the autocast only fires when the scout has lost half it's health, which means you will have to manually martyr each scout...

Additionally, there is a stacking limit of one, which means that any scout suicides done in too short of a time period will actually cancel each other out...

Yeah, you'd be better of Wailing a nearby planet to kill all your scouts at once, then lets your super buffed Eradica kill any caps or titans.

If you waste wail on scouts, you cannot be helped anymore.

 

Again... there is a 5 times stacking limit.

I think he tried to say use wail on the gravity well where the enemy fleet is, while you have your titan and 5 scouts there, to decimate enemy and get the 5 times stacking bonus at the same time.

This. I was just saying that's really the only way to kill them instantly, given you can't get them to all use martyrdom at once. And since wail would have killed the rest of the enemy fleet, you're Eradica will just be finishing off the caps and/or titan.
