The CytoMamba: Death from below.
Firstly sorry for the resolution change. I was doing other stuff on my monitor so didn't have the game full screen.
I've been toying with this idea for a while now. We all know Cytoscramblers are OP, but what happens when you stick a couple of finger-wigglers on the front of the Mamba? Turns out, you can have some very good fun.
Now, this ship is light. As light as I can make her without stripping off all the combatty stuff. The reason being she isn't the most agile ship in the game. So putting weight on her, like a bunch of 14 ton Heavy Duty A-Class Shield Boosters is, in my opinion, not the best idea in the world. Her armour is light, her shields are light, and she has to rely on her speed for the most part to avoid damage.
What she does have, however, is a massive amount of up-front damage to take out most if not all of a ship's shields before they even know they're being fired on. This ship is a sort of hit and run build. Although if you keep pips in engines... and for the love of coffee, PLEASE keep pips in engines if you value your sanity... then she's fairly manoeuvrable. Plus you have almost perma-boost to spin round ships and hit them while they can't hit you.
She can't take a pounding, though. So don't do what I did and turn her into a panic-guided missile. Or if you do, get ready to leg it after.
She has a cold power plant because the weapons all put out a fair bit of heat. They're all short range, even the Cytos, since the aim is to do as much damage right up the enemies thruster pipes as you can manage before high-tailing it away.
And speaking of the Cytos, they have Inertial Impact on them for two reasons: Firstly because they bump up the damage by an eye watering amount. And secondly because the increased jitter actually helps to bridge the distance between the two weapons, allowing you more hits on smaller targets. I know right, a time where jitter is useful, who'd have thought!
Why not stay at 1km range? Because you don't get a whole lot of time on target before your prey realises you're there, so you want as much damage output as possible in as short a time as possible. This configuration does that.
The Huge Multicannon is Incendiary, to give Thermal damage when you can't hit with the Cytos. The two large are both Corrosive. And no it's not because of my OCD about ammo capacity! Well not entirely, lol. They don't stack, but they don't always fire at the same time. So you can hit with one when the other is reloading, when they get out of sync, which happens more than you'd think. The reason I didn't do it the other way round, as I normally would, is because two class 3 incendiary MC put out just too much heat for even a cold plant to handle.
Lastly, you can drop the fuel scoop in favour of more shields. And if you have a carrier, that's probably a good idea. If you don't, she's gonna cost you in ship transfers, or you'll only be popping out to the local corner shop for your goodies. :)

The Plasmaconda: Chaff this!!

An engineered big ship designed to take out NPC engineered big ships relatively quickly. And since NPC pirates have to claim their mandatory Chaff Launchers and SCBs before they're allowed into the Cad Academy, this ship will make them largely useless.

This is a pretty unorthodox Cutter build.

      Anti Guardian stuff? If you're referring to the Shield Reinforcement, the reason for that is because the Type-10 has very low base shields.

Making it useful for ships with low base shields and lots of optional internal compartments. Although they're useful for really any ship you want to do combat with. They aren't just useful for AX operations. :)

Engineering is... okay, the premise is that you have a lot of different guys and gals who can do different things for your ship. But to get access to them you have to do a lot of different aspects of the game. Take it slowly. See what engineers you have, and what they can do for you.

    Very very satisfying to watch. I've slightly modified your build if you permit, here's my considerations on what i've modified and why - The weak point of the Type 10 is shielding so i've gone for a 8A Prismatic Shield "Reinforced - Fast Charge" instead of a 7A Prismatic "Thermal resistant - Low Draw" - Your build was very tight on power because of a tougher power plant , not allowing for power hungry (but better) modules, so i opted for a "monstered - thermal spread" power plant instead of a "armoured - thermal spread" , gaining some 10MW of power and allowing for 0A shield boosters - Since you've gone for a "SHIELD TANK" instead of a "HULL TANK" route , i need a 7A and 6A shield cell banks to compensate for a missing 8A SCB , still not on par but close enough to ensure almost two full shield recharges , still sacrificing the fighter hangar bay sadly - Reworked shield boosters engineering to have some more resistance against thermal attacks but almost double kinetic and explosive resistance compared to your build (still depends on what you plan to do, but in pirate hunting missions you'll need more kinetic and explosive resistance as far as i've experienced) yet the shield recharges in 15min compared to your 18,5min , so much more resistant yet it recharges faster - Power Distributor is now "Charge Enhanced - Super Conduits" instead of "Weapon Focused - Cluster Capacitors" to allow faster SYS recharge ; sustained weapon fire is also possible, slightly less with 3 pips (58s of fire compared to 74s) , equal with 4 pips compared to weapon focused PD - Heavy Duty Hull is optional, but 20% more hull for 2Ly less jump range and 3m/s less top speed seems reasonable for a "moving planet" of a ship - Weapon choice is pretty much personal taste , but short range gimballed multicannons make much sense, very nice choice here's my build s.orbis.zone/nojs o7 Commander !

    • @Kaethena
      @Kaethena 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Firstly thank you for sharing that build. I think if I was going to go with a build which didn't have an SLF (like if someone forced a gun to my head, lol) then I'd probably adopt some of those changes. Just a few things I want to comment on though: Firstly, the distributor. It absolutely does not need Charge Enhanced with Prismatic shields. The regen rate is so low on even a class 8 that the draw on the distributor is negligible. Doing the math (distro draw x regen rate), you're looking at a <1 MW/s draw on your SYS even for a class 8 Prismatic. So you can happily run 1 pip in SYS all day, even with a stock distributor, and never worry about it draining. If I were running a Bi-Weave, then yeah that would probably need the extra recharge but with Prismatics... it just doesn't. The ONLY reason to use CE would be the lower boost interval. But since that's on a set cooldown and you physically can't boost every 3 seconds because the game won't let you... again I don't think it's necessary. The idea behind weapon focused wasn't so much the stats in terms of recharge... it was to allow you to take pips out of weapons and put them elsewhere while keeping the effectiveness. Although with 9 multicannon, as you can see I needed to keep 3 pips there at least just because of the rate of fire. Even with weapon focused. Removing that... yeah I think it would provide too little benefit for too much cost. The powerplant and shield boosters: I quite like this. I normally work backwards in my builds. Put everything else in first and then work out what the powerplant needs to have to pay for it. I hate having hot powerplants, but that's just a personal thing. Even with the one I have, I got close to overheating a time or two. If you can manage it then yeah, with a Prismatic shield, having more up front strength isn't a bad thing. But again that's why the SLF is there. With a high ranked pilot, they can remove a lot of the aggro from your own ship, meaning you aren't under as much fire, meaning you don't need as many shields. But without a bay... I may well go for something like this. The armour: is more of a PvP setup. Not something I would normally do. I can see why you did it though. For what this ship was designed for, I would actually in hindsight go for sheer hull health to deal with phasing weapons, since the aim is to have your shields not go down. I would probably just go for military armour without any hull reinforcement. And the module reinforcement isn't necessary for PvE since phasing doesn't damage modules. The thing is though, you've made the ship 300 tons heavier. That's like 13% of her total mass. Which... aside from the speed and jump range, affects her agility. Which, without a fighter to cover for you, will be even more of an issue in terms of being able to fight effectively. Have you tested this build out in combat?

      @@Kaethena Still have to test a similiar build in combat (mostly due to materials farming). But please enlighten me on few things : if you fell the need to reinforce the Life Support , and the Power Plant too, why not feeling the need to protect the modules ?! This is a PvE build , so we basically suppose your shields won't go down and your combat activity is mainly focused on bounty hunting or pirate assassination missions where you have "cooldowns" , so a faster recharge shield is better. But still , i understand a smaller shield with more powerful shield cell banks, but 0E shield booster is absolutely hideous 😂. Also pointing out agility on a Type 10 is pure non-sense . On a FDL or Mamba, absolutely, but this ship is literally a doorholder with a spoiler , so loosing 3m/s but gaining much more defence is a better survival strategy. Load up a video where your build fights a 3 wing of elite NPC's , not master or expert one's ...

      @pgamingchannel4926 Well firstly the life support isn't reinforced. It's about the flimsiest you can put on a ship. D class and light weight. Because it's never likely to get used. As for the power plant, the only reason I go with Armoured isn't for the increased module health at all. It's because the mod gives you both an increase to power AND heat efficiency at the same time. As I said before, I don't like running hot power plants because they cause more problems than they solve, in my opinion. The one exception to that is on the Vulture, because the power plant is so undersized that it's practically a requirement to overcharge it no matter how you build the ship. For the vast majority of other cases, I prefer to go with a cooler plant so my weapons don't build up as much heat. I'm curious why you feel 0E shield boosters are "hideous". They work in your build because they're carrying proportionally more of the shield load. Replacing the ones in the build I posted gives you only 15% more shields for almost 20% increase in total power draw. For me that's too high a cost. But to each their own. :) I'm also not really talking about speed when I talk about agility. I'm talking about how sluggish the ship feels to fly. Inertia etc. However much nonsense you may think it is, it does make a difference in how the ship handles however big/small or fast/slow the ship is. Which is why I asked if you'd tested the build. If I were going to fight a wing of Elite NPCs, such as a Spec Ops wing in a Conflict Zone, I wouldn't use this build at all. That's not what it was designed for. I would change the loadout completely and probably the entire shield setup. This build was designed to giggle like a schoolgirl with a rain of hot lead. :) But hey, like I always say, if a build works for you, go with it and enjoy it. There's no one right way to build a ship, and no real point getting into arguments over it. :)

      It's what you make of it. I don't think you can say a game is the "Worst" for not being fun enough, when you consider most of the unfinished, unplayable crap that gets shovelled out and people get asked to pay through the nose for it. Elite Dangerous has been out for 10 years now. It's gone through a lot of changes. You make your own fun in the game. It's a giant sandbox. All the previous games were the same. It isn't geared for modern gamers, not really. People who need their hand held and a giant blazing path laid out for them, or equally rabid PvP psychopaths to try and kill. Although to their credit they've tried. You have to realise the whole premise of the game is based on something 40 years old at this point.

      I mean sure. She is conservative. But she's also capable of taking out engineered pirate ships 4 times her size without worrying about anything. Go in there with something more "fly by the seat of your pants" and see how long you last. Before jumping out again. Fun is relative. Actually check out my video where I do just that in an Asp Scout, lol.

    It's a good thing that was an NPC Corvette, I'd would be EXTREMELY SALTY If I had someone in a DBX blow me up to smithering. There's a reason after I had bought the anaconda I sold it and got me another krait mk2 instead. These big ships looks cool and hit hard but are not tailored to chase smaller targets. This the ship you use when someone else is using large ship. Or when taking a couple newbs to hunt in haz res.

    The worst thing in X3 Reunion is that you can't use the most powerful anti pirate destroyer in "generic" population areas. Ion Disruptor mixed with Artillery Cannon can extend the Ion's range like crazy but it lands on ships which are the closest without "discrimination".
