[ERIS]: Downtime Edition: Tricks

>You eventually decide to take Nyx as your last patron. She seems like she could be useful enough, and hey you did manage to unlock her last round.

>With your patron choices done you move on to start your game. You made sure to turn off the randomizer this time, it’s usually only entertaining for tutorial runs. After that it just becomes a hassle and gets glitchy as the game continues

>First choice, as always, is what ship and ai to use. Unfortunately the Vasikos will be unavailable as it’s just for tutorials.

SpoilerShow

The [Large Bird] fortuna item will proc even if you choose a ship AI here. If you choose a ship AI here you will simply receive either the minerva or athena unit as an additional AI for the crew.

Also they will not take up space on the crew unless you specifically make them crew members, so keep that in mind as we get to crew creation.
