Heh, not my experience with ze cobra. I usually get 1 G5 and 1 G4 and once one of those is maxed you can get few relogs to get even one of the other. The limiting variation means also limited storage and more cross trade. IMO, you will need to collect x3 more just to compensate for the cross trade.

I may go to some MS just to check how many types of data you get from those.

Edit: Nah, I am maxed out on almost everything as I haven't done any major ship builds recently.

What's the score with SRVs these days? I was doing the Guardian blueprint runs and was under attack by a couple of sentinels when my phone rang and it was a call I needed to answer.

Without looking, I exited as I removed my VR headset - so forgetting and not seeing that I wouldn't be able to log out for 10 seconds due to 'danger' - and answered the call.

Several minutes later I returned to find myself back in the ship, SRV destroyed. At least I got the blueprint first!

I headed off to New Growth to get a new SRV, but when I got into outfitting I found that I already had one! It wasn't a dual hangar - I only had the one when I set out, so how is this possible? Do we now get them back after a certain amount of time? I did check that the SRV was gone when I re-entered the game, so it's not something I missed.

Restocking do restock your destroyed vehicles. No need to buy one. You probably hit refuel , repair , restock - I do that by habit as well.

Next time tell to sentinels you are going to afk. They will wait.

Or get a DBX with two point defence modules on the upper auxiliary points. That’ll sort out the pesky sentinels

Max speed you gave is with empty tank. The actual is 799 which is good enough for a chicken.

Oh, screening shells? Shield resist vs 100% kinetic weapons? You will do half your dps on shield.

Engineered builds typically have balanced shields.

But that won't matter much with that amount of damage output. That's exactly why you get handicapped with only a handbag of ammo.

Might as well have some fun with that troll.

Yes, balanced into 30-60% resist. You need to do some retarded shields to drop kinetic bellow 30.

Anyway, I will gladly put my Ward as a target dummy for you. Just let me know when you finish it ... Possibly, summer 2023 xD

And BTW, those are alpha damage weapons so sustained DPS is not very descriptive.

Not to mention that with double shot you still have less damage per ammo, hence overcharged will do more total damage per clip. Double shot doubles the burst damage because it uses twice more ammo before reload while overcharged gives flat % increase per ammo.

Is there anyone on their way to the Bubble Nebula or I'm the only one at the moment?

So seeing as I'm not touching this game again and sticking around because Arty is cool, and most of you are too, I have 21 billion between credits/assets I could give away. Can basically buy a commodity that's low and can sell high to transfer to a carrier if anyone is interested. Might take me some time to do, however.
