Stellar Array (The Stars Above)

“

"You can access the Stellar Array from here. We can equip passive abilities here, staying mindful of the max cost, as well as changing the damage type of Aspected Weapons."

— Asphodene

The Stellar Array is a power given to you by the Starfarers. Once you choose your Starfarer, you can access the Stellar Array by ⚷ Open / Activate the Spatial Disk, then clicking the Stellar Array Icon.

In the Stellar Array, you may equip special abilities gained after beating certain bosses, or you may change the damage type your Aspected Weapon does.

You can equip as many abilities as you want, from any tier, and in any combination you want, so long as you have unlocked them and the total point value is under 5. This value can be increased by 1 point by equipping the Attire of the Faerie Voyager. It is also increased by 1 if playing with Calamity after the Devourer of Gods has been defeated.

The player can also change the damage that their held Aspected weapon will deal but the damage will be decreased by 10% if the damage type is changed.

Abilities

At the moment, there are 24 abilities to choose from, split between three tiers. Each tier has a different cost for equipping, with Tier 1 costing 1 point, Tier 2 costing 2 points, and Tier 3 costing 3 points.

There are 12 Tier 1 abilities, 8 Tier 2 abilities and 4 Tier 3 abilities.
