Light-HawkThat and they eliminate the need for heat sinks.
Maybe everywhere except AX, you still need heatsinks for attacking runs, but yeah, laser helps greatly to maintain the temperatures safe.

Seems the IN-GAME dialog for transfering leadership of a faction to another member pilot has changed or vanished all together. Anyone want to point me in the right direction for where the option may present?

- Answered my own question. It is hidden in the "LEAVE SQUADRON" action with the faction leader. There is no cancel or back option once you go in so if you want to peek at it you will want to close the client window to terminate the action.

Mac4Thanks for feedback, folks. Nothing the fuel rats couldn't fix, and all in a jiffy and painlessly, too! I was expecting a possible hours-long wait, but I guess they have these sleeper accounts parked in strategic places, so they can get to you really fast. Clever.

Yeah, I see re: my ship. The thinking there had been you'll want a functional ship once you arrive, right, to do more than just explore? So how do you handle that? Transfer everything over? (And wouldn't that take ages, at a small fortune?) Build a new ship there? But then you left half your engineers back where you came from.

So anyway hence the kind of all-round ship, with a few amendments. But I can see how maybe my thinking there was wrong.



Plus they are really fast. I was in the abyss and my rescue came from colonia and made it to me in less than 80 minutes.

Shg56o7 cmdrs,

Is any of you using PAs and Rails in the same fire group by any chance? Thanks

If you put one as (1) and the other as (2) then it's no problem.

If you mean the same button fires both then no because:
-The timings are different from when you pull the trigger to when they actually fire.
-Time to target is different because one is hit-scan (instant) and the other has a travel time.

That's the answer I was looking for. Thank you!

Palin less

I just discovered the possibility put shrelic into thargoid device again. Thargoid senzor doesnt fit there after that, maybe something else?

Hello everyone!

So, I'm a fairly new player (a little less than three months in) and I'm looking for a good medium sized-ship for combat. Which do you think is better: FDL or Mamba? I have a Python, but I've had some speed / turning issues with it. Also, I use my Python more for cargo and exploration runs.

I have used a Chieftain for combat and it's served me well...but it can have a tad of a 'glass jaw' and I've just about gone as far as I can with it.

Thoughts?

Strictly pickin from this two - FDL. Mamba have poor turning too, she is zoom-zoom-boom ship.

The usual recommendation after Chieftain is Krait Mk2 but it is very similar to python, just a bit faster.

Check this site Elite: Dangerous PvE Combat Wiki

It has a recommended ship progression with builds with or without engineering.

... Plus a ton of useful information on combat build strategies and tactics.

What's your question precisely? What planet are you on?

ps LV-something -- surely that's a nod to the Alien franchise?
