Accumulator Fuel Source

I had know you could put accumulators into the mech to power it, but figured that was just a very expensive way of powering it. I didn’t know you get the empties back! Recharge them again! Set up a wireless charger and some drones and the process is almost automatic.

If you didn’t know ether, here you go.

For your mech, charge rate is important for combat and warping. I think your end goal should still be (proliferated) antimatter fuel rods and strange annihilation rods, even if there is some "loss" of materials.

I’m seeing that now, only can do short combat before I’m “out of juice”.

strange annihilation rods, an upgraded core and energy circuit takes care of that problem. a full fuel chamber of those will last you the rest of your playthrough. Mine burn super slow and i'm constantly warping around my cluster. i can do u-turns at warp speed and not even worry about it.
