    @montuplays There's actually 3 different Ytterite items you can get. The Preserved Corpse: Gives +40 Engineering research. The Kaleidoscope Fascinator: +10 Amenities. And the Royal Scepter: +20 Edict fund.
    You also get unique dialogues with the Letters of Marque Civic, you also can't imprison Ness.

    Small additional note, there is a chance that one of your recruited leaders is a black needle plant that you can find if you pick the "root out the saboteurs" option. And depending on your choices can end up a boon. Either by throwing them in jail, executing them, or offering lenience. All three options give you a boon.

    Boarding Cables are also broken AF currently. Things people have apparently been able to steal:
    Cetana's Collossus
    Enclaves
    The Dragon from the "Here be dragons" origin
    Infinity Machine
    Contingency ships
    So far nobody has managed to capture the End of the Cycle, Horizon Needle or Asteroids, who knows if you can or not.

    I always enjoyed the early game discovery rush with science ships and trying to stack as many Anomalies as possible. Archaeology was a nice expansion of that aspect of the game. Treasure hunting is the perfect way to add even more story detail and allow for outcomes that are more interesting and varied than just income/percentage buffs.

    *THIS ORIGIN APPEARS TO BE BROKEN......*
    I started this origin path as a Hive Mind, since my leaders are basically immortal anyways, and about 30 years into the game I vanquished a Devouring Swarm. I was assimilating their pops and moving everyone back to my system's planets. When I invaded their last world and the war ended, I suddenly became a Devouring Swarm. Later when I vanquished another hive mind empire, I suddenly changed into a Progenitor Hive upon finishing their last world. I was then able to release sectors as fully fledged vassals. Next, I finished off a clone empire and suddenly my pop assembly speed went through the roof, over 20 pop assembly a month. I was playing with no mods, plain vanilla plus DLCs. What tf happened here???

      @@tbotalpha8133 I still don't know exactly what happened here, but upon investigating the log files, I have managed to figure one thing out. Upon killing an empire, my empire was getting a progressive tick. This tick was only changing one variable associated with the empire's origin, the numerical identifier for hive minds (1 = normal hive, 2 = devouring swarm, 3 = progenitor, 4 = ???). When set to 4, the empire gains max level pop assembly for some reason. After testing, when set to 5 or higher, the empire appears to gain random benefits/attributes. My guess is there is a function somewhere that accounts for this empire identifier and applies modifiers based on its value.

    I am enjoying the treasure hunter origin but I hate the fact that is so limited with storage. The 9 active is fine but you should be able to swap treasures not be forced to sell to free up a slot. Also 4 slots for storage sucks imo. What's the point of all that flavor text if it auto sells when your over the limit. Plus the trait treaurehoarder is as it says. Why can't we hoard the treasure.

    @montuplays hey you missed the exceptionaly wonderous bit about this origin. the only condition that you cannot take this origin with is a "Geonocidal Empire", meaning gestalt leaders are immortal and can also benefit from the starting traits without messing with ascension paths and hoping you get lucky. meaning, the age of computational corsairs is now!

    Boarding cables are honestly simply insane. Imagine if you steal a COLOSSUS with that thing. Or something modded, like KAISER'S MOON.
    This auxiliary module is, perhaps, the most powerful one in the game by far. It's basically necrophage defensive army conversion BUT with actual fleets.

    You forgot to mention something and the TRUE power of this origin. You mentioned it, but didn't go into detail. The boarding cable Aux slots are the best aux slot in the game bar none. They can let you steal ANYTHING. From enclaves, to asteroids, to Centera's mothership! And it works on modded stuff too like a systemcraft, the kaiser moon, or the blokkat vester. ITs assumed this'll be fixed on the 14th, but for now, you can steal major crisis motherships with them!

    I played all the way through that origin, same way as in this video, but didn't get any sabotage situation. A few more pirates formed, with an event text with reference to the Black Needle, but those pirates were the normal weak ones. Lucky me I guess.

  • @Jonathan1002887
    @Jonathan1002887 20 часов назад

    Here's the nuances I've noticed playing this origin. I'd like to preface my experience by saying I played solo and played "less than honest" because I wanted to see the story the first go around.
    The first time I played I stayed in my home system. Playing with debug makes up for the expansion I missed out on. The first added system spawned two jumps away and the subsequent added systems added were directly linked to my home system.
    On my second play, an honest play, I went wide. First added system still spawned a couple jumps away but the rest spawned at "the edge" of my territory when the event was triggered.
    My third and most recent play I did so tall and with the intent to only use what was needed system wise. I forget the name of the new civic that allows you to get unity for new artifacts but I used that for acces to the artifact tradition tree right off. First system added system spawned a couple of jumps away (I believe this is hard coded at this point). I remained in my home system till the second system spawned, it linked to my home world and took ownership of the system. The third added system branched from the 2nd system and I again took ownership of it. The 3rd system did the same and had the same result.
    The only "correction" I have is if you took the coward's way out you are simply kicked from the final system. The pirates do their thing and leave so you'll still have access to the system, just none of the goodies.
