​@eliminatorvr1350 That does make me wonder. During the Fallen Empire invasions, Cetana sends fleets into systems she doesn't control, and that players can at least theoretically access. Could a sufficiently trigger-happy empire stall her in phase 1 by teaming up with the Fallen Empire and making sure they aren't wiped out? The Titan probably stays within her borders, so winning in phase 1 is out of the question, but I don't think her win condition progresses either.

I am once again asking for a x200 crisis run.

Something that isn't mentioned in this video is that there is actually an alternative way to defeat Cetana. If you have access to the Shroud, you can commune with the Animator of Clay entity, which was what originally allowed Zarqlan to defeat and seal her away. Pay its price (27182 Zro, a planet or your current ruler) and it will disable Cetana's colossus for a year. You now get a new situation where you must bring a transport ship to her and keep it there for a month. If you succeed the crisis will immediately end, as you have now reprogrammed Cetana to realize the error of her plan and will give you control of her colossus instead of the relic you otherwise get for defeating her.

If you really didn’t want to attempt a 200x crisis you shouldn’t have mentioned it, cause now I want to see it

Spoilers if you haven't watched the whole video: Cetana is basically what I thought the Witness from Destiny lore was going to be. An ancient being who witnessed so much pain and loss that it decided life or consciousness was the greatest mistake and sought to eliminate it, creating an empty universe devoid of it. Unfortunate that Bungie went with "Douchy alien with a superiority complex". As if that trope hasn't been beaten to death already. Nice to see an ancient threat who isn't comically evil.

I think a similar design to what we'd use to take out the Unbidden would be good. I've been testing mega cannon battleships with kenetic artillery and whirlwind missiles to counter excessive shields and been fairly successful. Only change seems to be the need for Torpedo support as well for this crisis

Cruisersncan carry torpedoes so you could have cruisers with mixed disruptor and torpedos.

Oh boy this one will be fun once my mod playset is updated. *Cough* *Cough* Gigastructual engineering: Nicola Dyson beam/QSO *Cough* *Cough* or ACOT.

The custom Colossus reminds me of the Loyal Vasari Titan from Sins of a solar empire rebellion

I'm fairly certain that the Contingency was not in 1.0 and came with Synthetic Dawn... regardless! A new crisis is very welcome indeed.

Interestingly enough, I ended up getting the fleet power overflow glitch where her skull was replaced with a 1. I wonder what her actual power is at 1x strength and Grand Admiral. She survived for a pretty impressive amount of time against my ~5M fleet when I engaged her in her home system, despite the fact that I was mainly using fallen empire escorts with loads of torpedos.

I have a build suggestion for a video that might surprise you, Shattered ring worlds and trade habitats are a thing of the past as a new super OP trait got added to the game without anyone noticing. I am talking about the OVERTUNED trait COMMERCIAL GENIUS. It provides +25% TV from jobs (probably the best modifier possible for Trade empires) at just 1 trait point and -10 leader lifespan By itself its mediocre at best BUT it can be stacked with the other TV from jobs traits ( both thrifty and trading algorithms) AND you can double it s effects with the Damn the consequences edict for +100%TV from jobs which is overall 33% more TV compared to last patch. To make this even better you could use the merchant guilds council position buuuuut theres a better option. With the cosmogenesis crisis path you can acces fallen empire buildings that provide MERCHANTS just like in the good old days . As a bonus you can use elevated synapses and augumented intelligence ( with the edict ofc) for +60% research which can dramatically boost tech from OP crisis computer

Fun fact, depending on how you beat her her end form and text changes

Hey you can get some unique events if you have the relic ‘head of zarqlan’. Cetana has some history with him.

Thanks a lot for the video. And what about the option where the player needs to "hack her" according to the instructions received from the cover from the Animator of clay (Glory to the Synthethic Gods), and not kill her? After all, in this version (the hacking process takes place during the battle and costs a lot of resources, but), if everything works out, she will survive, become kind and, in gratitude for the fact that you "opened her eyes", she will give you a titan of power 390к

She clapped me super hard! I took all her outposts and when it was time to take her out I just couldnt with this battleships design even with almost all buffs (didnt have the X weapon damage from ascension). She has an insane power fleet for the difficulty I was on (admiral 5x). She spawned late with crazy fleets, some 2M fleets, a bunch (I mean a bunch) of 800k fleets, her main ship itself had 8M fleet power with probably another 8-10x 400k fleets on her capital. 3600 nav cap of this battleships got easily wiped on her capital and well can't rebuild 400k alloys when you're on a timer. I think in my game her total fleet power was probably around 30M considering the respawns (I think all 400k fleets are late waves/respawns) ie: she had around 4-5M smaller fleets on her border, I attacked the other side of her empire. first a 2M fleet showed up, then 2x 800k fleets and finally another 2x 750k fleets. The 4M I could see didnt move at all those were all extra ships. Later on her capital I found the 8M ship and 8-10 400k fleets which well I could defeat if I could wait 100 plus months to reinforce all my fleets for over 400k alloys then the time ran out. it was fun

So wait, what happens if you side with her? You just lose in the end?

In my first play with this crisis the fallen empires defeated her then eventually all the fallen empires had her fog and were wiped one by one. Is this suppose to happen?

Anyway just wondering if my game is bugged there are other issues I’ve noticed.

Yey

the mod "Gigastructural Engineering & More" seems like it would be able to crack this crisis wide open thanks to their system-targeting hyperweapons and absolutely bonkers-strong Attack Moons, Planetcraft, and the absolute beast of a ship that is the Stellar Systemcraft. Additionally, the "New Ship Classes (Season 3)" mod adds in the Flagship, which is basically a supercharged Titan that you can only have one of at a time, as well as a whole bunch of, well, new ship classes that are less powerful. And, of course, there's the "Ancient Cache of Technologies" mod that supercharges your technology level. Mind you, GE&M and ACoT add in their own crises to deal with that were coded with these things in mind (and even for the thing in the other if they see the other mod installed!), so there's that...
