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


It's been a long time since I went out that way... Might do it once I get back to the bubble from Rackham's Peak tomorrow

Aleksander MajjamSo 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.

I know one cheap CMDR that may use financial support


It is not me!

You were about a month late, there were several of us en route as part of an expedition!

Episparh the BluntNot 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.

Yeah, I'm still somewhat undecided there. Overcharged makes the weapon more sustainable in a PvE context, but in PvP (or ganking ) only DPS matters. There's also rapid fire which pushes DPS up to 278 but burns through all the ammo in a minute. I'm tempted to waste some materials just to see what that looks like.

Even for PVP I'd recommend the Overcharged over Doubleshot. If you compare the damage per shot you can see that overcharged does 66% more damage. So twice the hits is not that big a difference. Then you get twice the ammo with OC... The math is clear unless you're willing to reload mid fight which I'm betting you don't.

Add this 'Oops all Frag Cannons' build to the Saka Museum, next to the Deciat Type 9 for size contrast

Industrial economy systems with a faction in expansion. Once allied with said faction, they'll give out 50 million credit mining missions. Take ones for Bauxite, Bertrandite, Coltan, Cryolite, Gallite, Goslarite, Indite, Lepidolite, Pyrophyllite, Rutile, and Uraninite. All of those can easily be bought elsewhere, requiring no mining at all!

It’s easier if you do Road to Riches Explorer rank up. Use this to guide you https://edtools.cc/expl.php?a=about

Now that the Imperial community goal is over, when does the 30% imperial ship discount begin?

Burstar or something

I would go even further and say "Do not go frags only for PvP on anything with less shield potential than Mamba/FDL" . Her build is fine if she plans to gank newbies around Pilots' Federation district. I once tried frags in 1 vs 1 vulture fight. PAs are definitely better but needless to say that bi-weave was king in the engagement. None lost more than 50% before we ran out of ammo.

I agree, hence the 'oops all frags' joke It can work if she's willing to burn engineering mats for rearms though... All I see with a build like that is something designed to be annoying

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but why my screenshots being removed from gallery?
