I need a big ship cuz I'm not the best at combat, I can take on a ship when it's alone but I can't fight 2 ships at the same time
I can't remember ever trying to pirate 2 ships at once. You go for single, slow, poorly fitted traders

I have not flown a federation ship cuz I'm poor as hell, that's another reason I went to the empire instead, not much is illegal there except drugs
Then your opinion about Federal ships are utterly irrelevant.
What's illegal is largely depends more on the minor faction who's controlling the system than on the superpower.

it can be a big ship....but only when he knows exactly what to do with it, and exquisite load-out
By the way, arguably one of the best combat ships is de FAS, a vulture on steroids...can do 525, agile enough good hull, placement.. etc...a pirate that wants to survive, will take the best ship for the task

NFC PhistoBig ships don't make you good at combat. Finding the right ship and load out for yourself plus finding a tight crew to run with will go further than anything else.
Thanks for the advice

If you're not good at combat, big ships just mean you die in a bigger more expensive coffin
Use the Cobra, or a Viper, or an Eagle, and learn combat in those first. Brush up your skills, equip a Kill Warrant Scanner and find a High Resource Site, and hunt wanted criminals in smaller ships. The creds will pile up, your skills will get better, and before you know it you'll be slaughtering everything.
Plus side of small ships is also being cheaper to repair/rebuy if you mess up, which given a small beginners credit balance, is a very helpful thing. Better to learn from your mistakes while the rebuy is in the thousands and not the millions.

Sethsepticeye1Because I'm curious I got an important question for all of you.
Empire?
Federation?
Alliance?
Or independent?
And say why your with them
My avatar says it all, we do what we want when we want, but we are a pack and answer the call when required.

....tried the Type-10..properly outfitted.....pfft...what a drag...even boosting straight or in a curve is not noticeable.....
I will outfit this ship as a pure Thargoid-hunter, as much as possible AX.....but that's about it....what a drag.....
Consider it a very slow moving rock...so if you outfitted make sure it's pure resilience..
Anyone who has already made up their mind about the Type-10?
