아보리온 – Turret Crafting Guide and Tips

소개

If you’ve played Avorion for awhile, there’s one or two turrets that just make you want to go “우와, I’d really like more than just one of those.” 운 좋게, there is a way to do just that, provided that you’ve done a bit of exploration of the faction space and have a fair amount of credits to boot.

Most turrets within the game can be crafted from blueprints at a Turret Factory which most factions have a least one floating around their region of space. Many of them also come with Turret Factory Supplier stations where you can buy many turret parts to go through with the crafting.

메모, I do say that 최대 turrets can be crafted. A number of special turrets called “Red Text” 항목 can not be blueprinted, such as the EXPLOD-3Y AOE True Bolter. These turrets often have unique traits (often visual) that can’t be reproduced by the Turret Factories, but they can be dismantled into parts or fed to the research AI (그것에 대해서는 나중에 더 자세히).

그러나 지금은, lets start into the basics of turret crafting.

Basic Turret Crafting

• Turret Factories have a tech level related on the distance to the core. Closer to the core = higher tech level.
• Turret Factories can build blueprints that are <= its own tech level.
• Each factory has their own set of blueprints that it can build, and you can build your own blueprints.
• Building a turret costs both credits and parts
• Parts are goods that can be bought, salvaged, or procured
• Cost in credits to build the blueprint is based on relations with the owning faction and the rarity of the blueprint

Assuming that you’ve found (or built) your first turret factory, dock to it and access the factory menu by clicking on the “Build Turrets” 옵션. This should bring up a menu similar to the one shown above.

The Title bar shows you the tech level of the factory. The factory is only able to build blueprints that have a techlevel *at* or *below* the tech indicated here. 만약에, for example I had a Tech 37 blueprint in my inventory, I would not be able to build it at this factory since it is only Tech 36. Should you find yourself in a similar situation (blueprint tech exceeds factory tech) your only recourse is to travel closer to the core.

You can select either “Factory Blueprints” 또는 “Inventory Blueprints” from a dropdown box on the upper left of the menu, right below the selected blueprint icon. Factory Blueprints are blueprints that are randomly generated and are all the same tech level as the Factory’s level (이하). Inventory blueprints are blueprints that you’ve picked up (or crafted) along your travels.

The inventory grid is similar to the other inventory grids, and has options to sort by tech, dps, dps/slot, 등. in addition to the custom filter. This grid shows either the Factory Blueprints or the blueprints from your inventory depending on what you selected in the dropdown box mentioned earlier.

Selecting a blueprint will then show a parts list, the cost to make it, and a popout menu that shows you the stats of the turret to be built.

Turret parts are goodsthat can be bought at the Turret Factory, Turret Factory Supplier, other stations, or salvaged at a scrapyard by sacrificing other turrets. You can also get them from a Procure operation by captain. Merchant captains are the preferred types to procure parts, because they can quickly get parts often at a reduced cost than other captains. The parts list shows you the name of the part, the required amount of that part to build the turret, and the amount of that part that your ship currently has in cargo. A red number on the “너” column indicates that you don’t have enough parts.

마지막으로, turrets have a Manufacturing Cost that is calculated based on the rarity of the blueprint and the relations you have with the owning faction (better relations = less cost). The monetary value in the turret popout is the base price of the turret should you sell (or theoretically buy) the turret elsewhere.

Once you have sufficient parts and credits to cover the manufacturing cost of the turret, 당신은 짓다 button to craft a single turret. The parts are removed from your ship’s cargo and the funds are removed from your respective account.

Advanced Turret Crafting

• Factory Blueprints can have their stats buffed by increasing the parts cost.
• Inventory blueprints can not be buffed.
• Turrets can be converted into inventory blueprints.
• Parts cost of blueprints are the baseline, even if they were buffed by the same factory.
• Merchant captains can procure parts easily and quickly, often at reduced costs.
• Smuggler captains can also procure parts, but they will be marked as stolen and will not be accepted by the factory.
• Parts can be salvaged by turrets and are the same types of parts used to make the turret.
• 2.1 – Turrets obtained from research are often not as useful as buffed factory blueprints

Now that you have the basics of turret crafting under control, this section goes into how you can start optimizing those mechanics to get the best turret.

Assuming that you are looking for a stronger turret, you can craft turrets that are stronger than your average loot drop at factories. This is done by increasing the parts cost of Factory blueprints to the maximum and seeing their effect on the turret stats popout.

If you’re trying to shop for turrets better than what you currently have, you can compare turrets in your inventory (mouseover the turret and press E) to the factory blueprints. The comparison popout will show you the difference in the baseline stats of the factory blueprint, but you can finagle the menus a bit so you can see the buffed stats popout at the same time as the comparison popout like so:

1. 열기 Turret Factory – Build Turrets menu as outlined in the Basic Turret Crafting section.
2. Open the inventory menu and start the comparison popout by pressing E over a desired turret you have in inventory.
3. Close the inventory menu, select the blueprint of the turret you wish to compare, and buff the stats of the blueprint as desired.
4. Press E over any blueprint in the Turret Factory – Build Turrets menu to show the stats of the inventory turret.
5. 마지막으로, drag the comparison popout over so you can see the stats of the turret stats popout

Note that blueprints that you have in your inventory can not be buffed .

If you already have a kickass turret and want more of them, you can do so in the second sub-menus of the Turret Factory’s Build Turrets menu, as shown in the opening image. This will consume a turret within your inventory and give you back a blueprint, at the cost of some credits. The conversion cost seems to be loosely related to the type of turret as well as its rarity.

Blueprints crafted from turrets have the interesting quirk in that their parts cost is baseline. You can exploit this quirk to get turrets offered by factories at a cheaper parts cost by building one of the Factory Blueprint turrets at max buffed stats then converting the result into a blueprint. The manufacturing cost is still the same, 하지만.

On the subject of parts, you can procure parts quickly by using captains to look for them instead of trying to salvage parts from similar turrets (예, scrap laser turrets to get laser turret parts) by sending the captain out on a Procure mission. It is recommended to use a Merchant captain when doing so, because they can get often find better deals on parts and thus reduced cost. Smuggler captains, although able to procure parts that are unavailable, are not as useful because stolen goods won’t be accepted by the factory.

**그리고 마지막으로, rather than trying your luck at various turret factories, you can try researching them. Researching turrets behaves similarly to researching subsystems in that you can’t combine “특징” of different types of turrets, but you can increase the rarity and dps to a degree.

The type of turret produced by research (Chaingun, railgun, cannon, lightning gun, 등.) is randomly selected between the reagent/input turrets. 따라서, to ensure that you only get a chaingun turret out from research, make sure that all of your input turrets are also chainguns.

The material tier and number of slots the turret takes up seems to be also randomly selected from the input turrets, favoring the higher tier and heavier slot counts. It is easier to go up a material tier or slot count than it is to go down.

Special traits, ~와 같은 “Plasma” 또는 “전기 같은” and buffs such as “+5% 손상” are also randomly applied to the product turret according to its type. Neither appears to be selected from the input turrets.

Tech level is almost always increasing after each research attempt.

“Failed” attempts produce the average stats of all input turrets (dps, dmg, 범위, 등.) and average material tier and tech.

“성공” attempts don’t appear to significantly buff the baseline stats of turrets, aside from the fact that they are *usually* better than their input turrets.

따라서, It is recommended to shop for turret blueprints at turret factories since the research in 2.1 doesn’t let you selectively mutate turrets into something stronger than what can be buffed at a turret factory.
