Sector 5
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 236](faster-than-light-236-small.webp)
There is only one beacon I can jump to so I go there.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 237](faster-than-light-237-small.webp)
It's an automated ship which will warn the fleet if it can power up its FTL drive.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 238](faster-than-light-238-small.webp)
I aim for the piloting system
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 239](faster-than-light-239-small.webp)
but my shields get hit so I try to repair them as quickly as possible.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 240](faster-than-light-240-small.webp)
My door system is hit and on fire, I sent 3 into the shields to finish it quickly
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 241](faster-than-light-241-small.webp)
But they get hit again. Meanwhile I aimed for the piloting system, but my weapons get hit before I was able to shoot.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 242](faster-than-light-242-small.webp)
My shields are still damaged and the fire in the door system is out of control, I had to send the guy in the medbay and I use the boarding crew to help out on the ship.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 243](faster-than-light-243-small.webp)
Realizing I can't win this fight
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 244](faster-than-light-244-small.webp)
I escape, this can be useful because you sometimes encounter enemies which you are not able to beat.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 245](faster-than-light-245-small.webp)
I pick the blue option
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 246](faster-than-light-246-small.webp)
and can avoid a fight.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 247](faster-than-light-247-small.webp)
I now work on the ship to repair everything.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 248](faster-than-light-248-small.webp)
After repairing the door system and healing everyone
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 249](faster-than-light-249-small.webp)
I jump to the store.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 250](faster-than-light-250-small.webp)
I buy a scrap recovery arm and continue my journey.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 251](faster-than-light-251-small.webp)
The next beacon reveals a fight.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 252](faster-than-light-252-small.webp)
He will not be able to pierce my shields, but the anti-personnal drone will make the boarding process difficult. On top of that are the upgraded doors, meaning my boarding crew could get trapped inside.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 253](faster-than-light-253-small.webp)
I attack the drone control first, but it seems like it can take a few hits without being fully disabled.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 254](faster-than-light-254-small.webp)
I fire at the piloting system and the human inside takes a lot of damage, especially with the fire.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 255](faster-than-light-255-small.webp)
The repair drone helps him, so I focus the doors next.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 256](faster-than-light-256-small.webp)
Unfortunately, they are charging their FTL drive and I make the mistake
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 257](faster-than-light-257-small.webp)
of trying to board them nonetheless.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 258](faster-than-light-258-small.webp)
I can call them back in time due to the teleporter lvl 2, but
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 259](faster-than-light-259-small.webp)
the ship gets away.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 260](faster-than-light-260-small.webp)
And so I make my way to the next beacon.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 261](faster-than-light-261-small.webp)
I hire them to delay the rebels so I can explore 2 more beacons. 14 scrap is a pretty low cost.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 262](faster-than-light-262-small.webp)
What I did now is fighting them instead of venting them off completely to increase the fighting level of my crew members.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 263](faster-than-light-263-small.webp)
I finish them off in the medbay
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 264](faster-than-light-264-small.webp)
and send them back again to their stations.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 265](faster-than-light-265-small.webp)
The next beacon has an automated scout.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 266](faster-than-light-266-small.webp)
I shoot at his weapons
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 267](faster-than-light-267-small.webp)
but I miss every shot.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 268](faster-than-light-268-small.webp)
I hit them at the 2nd time and can disabled both of his weapons, meaning that the drone can't pierce through my shield.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 269](faster-than-light-269-small.webp)
I keep on shooting at their weapons and then switch to the piloting system because it evades a lot of my shots.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 270](faster-than-light-270-small.webp)
After having dealt with his weapons and piloting system, I go for the shields because getting through them is difficult.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 271](faster-than-light-271-small.webp)
I defeat him after a while.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 272](faster-than-light-272-small.webp)
The next beacon has another scout.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 273](faster-than-light-273-small.webp)
It has no shields, but an Ion weapon and a Burst Laser III, meaning it will shoot 5 lasers at me.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 274](faster-than-light-274-small.webp)
I am able to destroy its weapons in time before it can shoot me with the Burst Laser III.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 275](faster-than-light-275-small.webp)
Keeping its weapons disabled should be easy, especially with no shields to break through.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 276](faster-than-light-276-small.webp)
Next beacon. They offer me to sell my drone parts for scrap
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 277](faster-than-light-277-small.webp)
so I sell 3.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 278](faster-than-light-278-small.webp)
I don't risk it because the last time I fought against an automated scout with 2 shields didn't work out so well.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 279](faster-than-light-279-small.webp)
The next beacon has an asteroid field, but 2 shields are pretty decent against one.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 280](faster-than-light-280-small.webp)
His weapons are very strong, 2 Burst Laser II and a beam weapon, meaning he shoots 6 lasers followed up by a beam.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 281](faster-than-light-281-small.webp)
I autofire the piloting system with the Ion Stunner because it will disable one shield, it doesn't matter where I hit. I then attack the weapons with my Burst Laser II.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 282](faster-than-light-282-small.webp)
I am able to damage its weapons, but I take a lot of damage on my weapons and piloting system.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 283](faster-than-light-283-small.webp)
I get hit a second time, but it's only the medbay.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 284](faster-than-light-284-small.webp)
I could've used my doors to remove the oxygen from the medbay, resulting in putting out the fire quickly, but I sent my crew in instead. This is a mistake on my part, but works too.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 285](faster-than-light-285-small.webp)
After finally being able to disabling both of its lasers,
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 286](faster-than-light-286-small.webp)
I can destroy him without taking further damage.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 287](faster-than-light-287-small.webp)
I jump to the next location and aid the civilian ship.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 288](faster-than-light-288-small.webp)
The auto-scout has no shields, but a cloaking system, a missile launcher and a hull laser. The laser won't be a big of a deal, but the missiles will do a lot of damage.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 289](faster-than-light-289-small.webp)
After disabling the missile launcher,
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 290](faster-than-light-290-small.webp)
I try to destroy the cloaking system.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 291](faster-than-light-291-small.webp)
It cloaks in time and avoids my bullets.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 292](faster-than-light-292-small.webp)
I shoot at the weapons again after the cloak was over to ensure that the missiles stay disabled.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 293](faster-than-light-293-small.webp)
After the 3rd cloak I'm finally able to finish him off.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 294](faster-than-light-294-small.webp)
I was a bit too slow and ended up fighting against an Elite Fighter of the rebels.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 295](faster-than-light-295-small.webp)
They board my ship so I suffocate them. Meanwhile I focus on their weapons to minimize the damage I will take since he has a lot of weapons.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 296](faster-than-light-296-small.webp)
They teleport their boarding crew back because it was low on health while I keep shooting at their weapons.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 297](faster-than-light-297-small.webp)
I keep firing on their weapons, but my oxygen system got hit.
![Faster Than Light Walkthrough - Faster Than-Light 298](faster-than-light-298-small.webp)
My FTL drive is finally charged so I go to the next sector.
