-VIPER- Yes, it's a 5A [SCO] and can get about 40 LY range with a Booster.


What's her exact range without the booster 5A SCO Long Range GR5/Mass manager? Do you know by any chance what's her agility index? Thanks

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes it's Long Range GR5/Mass manager. W/o a booster is 31 LY. Agility has not been released, but will out turn a FDL easily. AXI I think has some numbers on their website you can take a look at. They are theoretical but probably close. {alot of your range will depend on loadout. A Milspec hull will drop it significantly.

OK, so it is the very small gain, I doubt she could afford booster she has so little optional slots. But with 5 axmc plus 1 vent I think she could take a hydra down though maybe not at space AX zone but by surface port. Thank you

Shg56Did anybody buy Stellar variant of PMKII? Is its 5A FSD upgradable to the long range as it is shown in Ricardos youtube video? Thanks

I fly the standard version, and this is what I get out of her after engineering:



It will of course depends on how you equip her, you can go for weight saving measures like I do since I do bounty hunting from my CV, I don't need a fuel scoop and can gain weight with the FSD as well.

I'm still experimenting, I didn't push engineering of the Power Distributor further because it's just trading Boost and firing the lasers looks stable enough but I'd do with a 7$ like the Krait Phantom.

Does anyone knows where to find Tritium?

Inara keep sending me to false tracks.

It should be available in many stations. Did you try to buy it from fleet carriers (their offer can be pretty volatile) or regular stations (in that case send me a link to your search, please, so I can verify the incoming data)?

Buying it or mining it? There is plenty to be had at stations, usually around 50K per ton. As for mining, I just scan icy rings until I find a hotspot.

Also, if searching to buy, pay attention to when the price/supply was last updated. I have found that anything with a high supply or low price that is older than 3 days is usually not worth the trip.

Hey Guys,

Empire Corsairs and Gender Flag, i looked in the Systemmap for this Faction, flew to an outpost, tried to get my bounties there (ship interface and onfoot in that station, i didnt find a bar to get my bounties, looked in the Monitor, there is an point with "contacts", i can choose contact to get my bounties, but the list is empty... flew to the planet where i fought yesterday, visited the station where i fought, searched sitting in my ship for the contact, same problem, bounties werent listed, left my ship, monitor, no contact window

someone can help me to get the bounties please?

Your best bet would probably be go to a starport that has Frontline Solutions. You can talk to the NPC there and redeem your combat bonds. Alternately, some starports and stations have Combat Bond contacts you can access from your ship (Starport Services>Contacts>Combat Bond Contact).

Bounty Vouchers can be turned in at the Administrative Contact. (Starport Services>Contacts>Local Administrative Contact)

I am not sure how those contacts would translate in Deutsch.

Thanks!

I've been looking for a station selling Tritium for ages yesterday, I finally got a couple of cargos today at Euthymenes Ring | XI HESATES.

I suppose it was one of those bugs after server servicing...

I only mine if I'm stock somewhere with my Carrier, and you're right, best check for freshly updated info...

My Python MK 2 AX nanite bulid, 2500 hull and fully engineered SCO FSD / no booster, is doing about 25.5 lys.

With their latest update they added the model to EDSY.

I just ran my blue-print for PMKII on EDSY. It does not need 6A monster power-plant. It would do fine with 5A Armoured/Thermal with all deployed at 92.5% and if cargo hatch is off since there is no cargo it drops to 89.9%. It is a bit slower than MKII but it overboosts it 567. Raw damage went up to 171.5 from 124.0 (4X3C eaxmc + 2X2D GR5 long range beams with vent). Her hull at 4,715 is 1/3 weaker than MKII but it should be enough by the surface port. Her jump score is 30 LY the same as MKII. These are very promising numbers. Thanks for the EDSY tip.

How the heck did you get a hull integrity of 4,715 on a PyMkII? The highest I can get in EDSY is 4,027, if I pack all the slots with G5 HD+DP HRPs.

Could you post a link to your EDSY build?

Hope the link works


It does. Nice build! You even got the Azimuth MCs working. I am running the enhanced ones only for I wanted to build a hybrid ship with bi-weaves and at the same time stay <20% heat for Maelstrom runs. This Baby sure is asking for compromises...

I took her to a AX combat zone yesterday and defeated a Basilisk. No issues there. Will try some Titan bombing next. This is why I did an AX build. Hadad is way out and SCO is where the Pee 2 really shines for me (plus the higher speed compared to its ancestor).
