Plundernauts (Guides, Tips and Tricks)

Goggwell · June 25, 2014

Hello everyone! Today I will be talking to you about Plundernauts. Here are some guidelines to help you play the game and possibly get the best, because I LOVE this game!

WHAT IS PLUNDERNAUTS?

Plundernauts is a brand-new game that recently came out, made by Backflip Studios, creator of Ninjump.

This game focuses on strategies involving starship battles and there are plenty of rewards after each battle.

A tutorial will be available from the beginning until after you have completed the first boss battle, which should be invigorating!

WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH MONEY?

Well, with money (gold or anti-matter), you could spend it on items, upgrades or starships.

There is also the option of using anti-matter to fast-forward item deliveries and refill your battle booster (the bar that allows you to battle when travelling to other planets)!

WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE MONEY?

Then you could use the Forge to craft better weapons and other items to help you along the way.

The best part about this is that you could use the rewards that drop from battles in the Forge to create upgraded gear.

WHAT IS THE FORGE?

The Forge is a place that unlocks after much of the tutorial has been completed. It allows you to create better gear at a much cheaper price then having to purchase the actual weapon.

And if you are looking for a rare weapon, the Forge allows you to craft one really fast whilst the Shop may or may not have rare weapons.

ARE THERE DIFFERENT RARITIES?

Yes, there are different rarities. Allow me to list them for you:

1. COMMON - These are the most basic items you could find. Normally found in battle drops and the cheapest at the store. Use these items for forging. Especially weapons.

2. UNCOMMON - Found in the early boss battles or at shops. Can be crafted, but it is not that hard to do. Usable at Level 2.

3. RARE - What you should be aiming for as a weapon. Found in shops and can be crafted. Usable at Level 3.

4. EPIC - Very good items. This kind of gear is rarely seen in shops, and could be dropped. Crafting could also claim this sort of rarity. Usable at Level 4.

5. LEGENDARY - The pinnacle of rarities, this stuff cannot be found in shops, and can be dropped by the final boss of a system. It can be crafted, but you must know a lot about crafting. Usable at Level 5.

WHAT ARE SOME DIFFERENT RECIPES FOR FORGING?

I have discovered a few of my own recipes for getting a really good weapon, after much experimentation.

FOR GETTING AN UNCOMMON WEAPON: Forge together 3 of the same weapon (same weapon type and same standard of weapon). Use common weapons to achieve this.

FOR GETTING A RARE WEAPON: Forge together 1 weapon of Standard quality, 1 weapon of Salvaged quality, and 1 weapon of Upgraded quality. Must be same weapon type and common.

FOR GETTING AN EPIC WEAPON: Use the same strategy above (works in some cases), or forge together 3 Rare weapons of the same weapon type.

FOR GETTING A LEGENDARY WEAPON: This is still in BETA, but I managed to get a legendary Laser with this formula. Forge together 2 standard, common weapons of the same weapon type with 1 upgraded, common weapon of the same weapon type.

There are also recipes for getting a better Starship, and recipes for creating a weapon without having one in the first place.

FOR GETTING AN UPGRADED STARSHIP: Forge together your starship of choice, 1 Starship Plan and 1 Big Spare Part.

FOR GETTING A WEAPON: Forge together a Targeting Module, 1 Poltergas and 1 Spare Part.

WHAT ARE SOME RECOMMENDED STARSHIPS AND WEAPONS?

I would keep the starship gained from the tutorial if you do not have money, but otherwise, get the starship that has turrets equipped to one side, both if better, because it will dish out a lot of damage on one side.

My favorite weapon is the torpedo, but excellent substitutes include the cannon, missile launcher and laser turret. Get a few torpedoes in your starship because they do a lot of damage.

ANY OTHER ADVICE?

Just keep playing and have a great time!
