AI Class Skills
From Starsonata Wiki
Class skills were added to AI ships in order to make the game more engaging. Once entered in game, this beef to AI power was widely regarded as a bad move. The opposition to this stated that, "Not only is leveling now much more difficult for lower level players (especially regarding the Goblins with gunner skills), but leveling itself is at risk. We can no longer kill AI en masse and quickly to level, we have to FIGHT for each level."
As of the first of February, this problem has not been resolved. Forum threads were created, such as Thread on AI Beef. It is yet to be seen whether this issue will remain unresolved nor is it known when a fix will be introduced.
