* Despite the high alpha, the long reload time means ships with enough health can quickly charge their warp and escape if you have no support. The reload also makes it so if your turrets miss, the enemy has a relatively long time to attack before attempting to dodge the next volley. Skilled players can estimate when your turrets will fire and warp a short distance, or move into your blindspot. | * Despite the high alpha, the long reload time means ships with enough health can quickly charge their warp and escape if you have no support.

*While the ship is capable of sieging with a great efficiency, it is sometimes (in some cases, significantly) worse at sieging than several other more specialized [[:Category:Siege Ship|siege ships]]; such as the [[Avalon]], [[Hyperion]], [[Kraken]], [[Antares]], and [[Frostpocalypse]]. These ships - while ''(mostly)'' lower in class - outperform the '''Astraeus''' at sieging because of the low damage output. | *While the ship is capable of sieging with a great efficiency, it is sometimes (in some cases, significantly) worse at sieging than several other more specialized [[:Category:Siege Ship|siege ships]]; such as the [[Avalon]], [[Hyperion]], [[Kraken]], [[Antares]], and [[Frostpocalypse]].
