Cytoscramblers my dude. Short range + Inertial impact engineering puts them at 72 dps against shields :D ....almost nothing against hull unless you also run corrosive shell on another weapon. Basically laser shotguns.

I'll list them in order: 1 - One Must Fall Theme Song 2 - Mortal Kombat Movie Theme 3 - Street Fighter 2 - Guile's Theme 4 - Crusader: No Remorse - Level 1 5 - Probotector - Level 1 Music (forget the name) 6 - Unreal - Organic 7 - Precurors Remix of the Star Control 2 battle theme 8 - Crusader: No Remorse - Title Theme 9 - Machinae Supremacy - Gradius Theme

Correct. This is because it has an armour piercing value of 1. The lowest armour hardness of any ship is 28 (ironically, that's the Eagles). The damage formula multiplies the damage dealt by the difference between armour piercing and armour hardness. In this case, cyto damage dealt * 0.03 = 2.16 dps before resistances, ew. BUT if you use corrosive shell experimental on something like an enforcer or frag (ew), rather than lowering the armour hardness of the target, it RAISES the armour piercing of the attacker by 20 so now, the cyto has a piercing of 21. 21 / 28 = 0.75. So instead of the cyto damage (72 dps) being multiplied by 0.03, it now gets multiplied by 0.75. That brings the cytos HULL dps to 54 dps, before resistances. Pretty damn respectable for a small hardpoint. Sorry it got a bit mathy!! TL;DR: Yes it's crap against hull unless you also use corrosive shell and then it's bloody good.

Hi! I'm so glad you like my content! You absolutely CAN use a HOTAS to fly FA off. HOSAS would definitely be the best choice but you can work with what you have. The secret to flying FA off is to ..... just do it and do it for EVERYTHING. You will fail a lot BUT keep at it. After a few weeks it will eventually just click and you will work out how to make it work using the control scheme you have. Then it's just a matter of practice. Eventually, flying FA ON will feel gross and disgusting. In terms of a zero engineering Eagle build, I'll put one together for you to aim for: edsy.org/s/vh6cLZi This is a good starting point but I DO recommend unlocking some engineers soon cause an unengineered Eagle is pretty weak. You can replace the frag with a burst laser if that's more your style. Don't freak out if your shield drops, it'll come back quickly.

That IS going to happen. 😁

"You wouldn't have parked on MY building!"

It is maneuvering.....have you not played elite for long? The person flying the eagle is matching the Conda's speed and trajectory, making it look as if the Conda is sitting still.

That's what the * and description is for. :D

@@silverstyles5646 he said it, he said the thing!

It looks like he stays still because he pilots too well. Look at the ship speed that 100m/s++ movement speed all the time. And he means the 9-cannon shot for reactor to breakdown and go boom boom. The only problem I wanna ask is. It might be better if he used penetration railgun for that.

@@mayshiratoshi6390 Thanks for the explaination, I knew someone would get it! Superpen rails WOULD work too but cannons actually have a higher breach chance AND higher breach damage however you have to NOT hit OTHER modules when using cannons. A superpen rail just goes through every module (with diminishing returns). I just prefer cannons thematically :D :D

@@silverstyles5646 Understandable :D but when I do this with my eagle I prefer sitting at 6 while kill both thruster and reactor at the same time.

Cytoscramblers. REALLY high damage against shields, really LOW damage against hull (unless you use corrosive shell alongside it). It's a powerplay weapon. Obtained by pledging to Archon Delaine for a month and getting the merits etc. Not sure how the new upcoming powerplay will make it available however.

@@silverstyles5646 owh i dont even know there are other weapon than those weapon they sell in the station,

@@Localnimation Yeah each of the powers have their own one. Some are better than others but the good ones are: Pacifiers, prismatic shields, enforcers, cytoscramblers, maybe the containment missile.

@@silverstyles5646 ok thx for the information

72 dps XD. Against shields its pretty much on par with an overcharged huge beam laser. Against hull well.... you have to run corrosive shell on something or it's useless.

@@silverstyles5646 (different account but it's still me) oh ok thanks, I noticed indeed that it melted that shield, and for a sidewinder having that much firepower is an extreme flex

@@Kingbee642 Give 'em a try! They can be engineered in a bunch of different and interesting ways. EG: With phasing they're kinda intersting. With thermal shock, they'll heat up NPC's to the point where they'll barely fire at you. etc etc

@@silverstyles5646 yes, they surely are interesting, maybe I can modify my combat Conda to have these

Hugh really is the protagonist in this story.

I'm glad you like it! Yeah an Adder would probably do a little better ...but it's also easier to hit, even with gimbals. Sidey is so small. Ultimately, there's haters that are like, "hurr you wouldn't win against a player Corvette/Anaconda" etc etc. That may be true (depends on who's flying XD ) but it's STILL the starter ship vs 3 x "end game" ships. I do REALLY think Fdev needs to add some better NPC combat. For medium and above ships, most NPC combat is really trivial. They just need to make some NPCs or missions have better engineered NPCs to *really* hone the ol' skills. (Wing assassination missions don't count)

It's cause I dropped from behind the station. The long tail of the Orbis station doesn't count, it's just the distance to the centre of the station that it looks for. In fact, you can fly to the end of an Orbis like this, be RIGHT next to it and you won't be mass locked. XD

@@silverstyles5646 ahh gotcha, i typically try to aim for the mailslot side of stations while in supercruise

Cannon is probably my favourite weapon. For this build to work, you need corrosive shell to get the cytos to damage hull so, if someone didn't have enforcer, they CAN use a small frag with corrosive but small frag is so trash, it's almost only good for applying corrosive. :D

@@silverstyles5646 Correct and I agree, cannon may not be the most efficient weapon but it's my favorite. It's also underrated probably because of all the nerfs

@@jl3114 Cannons are awesome! They're like Kmart PA's. They're actually SUPER efficient if you use them what they're designed for: Blowing up modules. They'll pop a powerplant in a few shots and then blow up the ship after a few more. High yield shell got a nerf which is a little rough but I get why. Not to mention dispersal field experimental means you can afford point defense on a PvE Eagle since NPC's will SPAM missiles once the weak shield is down. Nothing wrecks an Eagle run faster than multiple missiles. It's small frags that are worthless lol.

@@silverstyles5646 Well hit me up if you ever want to take on some wing missions for materials, I don't really like grinding for them in the buggie so I do CZ and HAZRES missions

Man that woulda taken ages! Good on you for doing it the fun way though.

Why are you so salty? Are you Hugh Jarse?

Thank you! :) I've got a lot better since this video.

1 - Cytoscramblers. Small hardpoint powerplay weapon obtained by pledging to Archon Delaine for a while. Designed to obliterate shields. Does basically nothing to hull (without corrosive shell on something). 2 - FA off, two joysticks and lots of practice! :D
