The Crescendo is a recolor of the Hellkeeper boss available to players.

Description

The Crescendo is a pink, dreadnought version of the Hellkeeper featuring an almost identical loadout, with weaker turrets. It excels at shield breaking, and can be obtained only through a quest, which refers to it as "Hollow Vessel".

Interior

The interior is simple, being a purple brick box with a seat, and a sarcastic wall of text commenting on the lack of detail in the interior. The sentence "Welcome to box interior, Halloween special" is a joke referring to the first half of the line appearing in the Halkaryak's interior as well.

Advantages

High health.
Extremely high damage to shield.
Very fast for a dreadnought.
Surprisingly accurate turrets.
Turrets have above-average range.
Extremely high explosion radius, the same explosion radius as Deity.

Disadvantages

Despite being the only cannon turret, its Ultima is very weak.
Lopsided health pool, weighed towards shields.
Extremely large target: larger than some super capitals.
Turrets are mostly on the top.
Very expensive for a dreadnought.
It will be targeted as it is a limited ship.
All turrets are on top, which makes the ship have a big blind spot below.

Strategy

Only use this ship in fleets as it can be destroyed very easily when alone. If you are going to siege a base, make sure not to tank damage due to the loadout of Starbases being primarily shield-based.
When fighting another player, prioritize staying above them, where all of your turrets can fire. Retreat when low on shield.
Pair up with a Zillavik's hull-breaking capabilities to form an unstoppable duo.

Version History

Top Speed increased to 100 in version .74b14.

Trivia

Despite this being the same size as Hellkeeper, this ship is a dreadnought instead of a super capital.
The first person to lose this ship was silenthunter7777 to a Dissonance. However, the ship was bugged, leading to its death.
The ship appears to be a very loose reference to Interstella 5555, due to the max hull amount, and also that the name of the band in the film is "The Crescendolls". However, this is unconfirmed.

+The '''''Crescendo''''' is a pink, dreadnought version of the [[Hellkeeper]] featuring an almost identical loadout, with weaker turrets. It excels at shield breaking, and can be obtained only through a quest, which refers to it as "Hollow Vessel".
-==Interior==
+==Interior ==
-The interior is a grey box with a purple point light, and has a wall of texts simillar to the Halkariak. There is also a simple black seat in the middle.
+The interior is simple, being a purple brick box with a seat, and a sarcastic wall of text commenting on the lack of detail in the interior. The sentence "Welcome to box interior, Halloween special" is a joke referring to the first half of the line appearing in the [[Halkaryak]]'s interior as well.

-• Great turret / spinal firepower.
+*High health.
+*Extremely high damage to shield.
-• Has an insane overall speed for it's size, being at 100.
+*Very fast for a dreadnought.
+*Surprisingly accurate turrets.
-• Good shield health (9500)
+*Turrets have above-average range.
+* Extremely high explosion radius, the same explosion radius as [[Deity]].
-• High damage to shields.
+==Disadvantages ==
-==Disadvantages==
+* Despite being the only cannon turret, its Ultima is very weak.
-• Will be mass-targetted because of it being one of the most expensive ships in the halloween 2021 event.
+* Lopsided health pool, weighed towards shields.
+*Extremely large target: larger than some super capitals.
-• Turrets are kinda innacurate to smaller ships.
+*Turrets are mostly on the top.
+*Very expensive for a dreadnought.
-• Extremely hard to land spinals on small / medium-sized ships.
+*It will be targeted as it is a limited ship.
+*All turrets are on top, which makes the ship have a big blind spot below.
-• Only has 5555 hull health (unbalanced health), which means shield-breaking ships / starbases can more easily take down this ship.
+== Strategy==
+*Only use this ship in fleets as it can be destroyed very easily when alone. If you are going to siege a base, make sure not to tank damage due to the loadout of [[Starbase|Starbases]] being primarily shield-based.
-• Big weak spot below the ship, but the turn speed draws is back.
+*When fighting another player, prioritize staying above them, where all of your turrets can fire. Retreat when low on shield.
+*Pair up with a [[Zillavik]]'s hull-breaking capabilities to form an unstoppable duo.
-• This ship is BIG. Bigger than some super-capitals litteraly, wich means it's really easy for the enemies to hit you.
-==Strategy ==
-• Do not bring this at wars unless you are confident this is not going to die.
-• Do not go alone with this ship inside of a war.
-• Hit large targets with your turrets and spinals, since it is pain to hit small/medium ships with this thing.
-• If you're almost hulled, quickly warp back to your base.
-• Can pair up with hull-breaking ships to form an unstoppable army.
-• To land smaller targets with your spinals, make sure to aim more up than usual before shooting.
-• Use this ship mainly to ABSOLUTELY MELT ennemie's shields.
