It would be interesting to share what combinations of equipment people used in the game. Did you just go with the newest items with the highest stats? Or was there a special effect that you relied on? Also post any strategic combinations you had.
I'll start. There was one effect in particular that I used a lot: "Subversion: 12% chance to repair n HP when your ship takes damage." With this I quickly realised that I could heal a lot of health if I purposely got hit by all the low damage attacks. I used this item even when it was outdated in terms of stats (77 total vs 150+ on my other items). This strategy also complements those counter-attack items.
However, later in the game there are less enemies that have low damage attacks.
Wow, I didn't think there were any items that had a percentage effect. How rare were those?
Also, I found out that the "subversion" effect can still heal HP when the ship gets hit while having an odin/ion shield. That means no damage is taken because of the shield, but there is still a 12% chance of healing HP from every hit. Quite overpowered.
Alliance Pulsar V3 When hit, the ship has 60% chance to counter attack with photon chains for 937 damage. Damage 256 Life 259 Armor 274 Total 789 Raphael Spark V2 Auto fires EMP chains that stun and deal 308 damage. Damage 177 Life 166 Armor 115 Total 458
Brutus Gear MK-X 5 Repairs 50% HP when the time spent stationary is 5 seconds. Damage 87 Life 120 Armor 98 Total 305
Reaper Spark VX 5 Auto Fires electro chains that deal 175% of the ships damage. Damage 226 Life 346 Armor 280 Total 852
Total Ship Stats Damage 746 Life 891 Armor 767 Total 2404
Still looking for item that has 50% heal, my best healing item is normal item KAMI SCREEN lv 5 subversion type with 1209 HP and rare item KAMI SERVO lv 5 repair type with 1160 HP. Would love to have any secret item of this type.
I have Evira and Anvindr ships, both I got from normal play except life cheat. I never buy credits for ships or items.

I used anvindr when fight bosses, and replace KAMI SCREEN VX either with Damage item or recovery item.
