Making rescues at surface outposts under attack is incredible, especially in VR. High pucker factor. FD has breathed much needed new life into this game.
Please don't forget to bring a field neutralizer like DtEA mentioned. I had my Orca shutdown trying to land taking me to the rebuy screen because the thargoid was fighting security forces.
You can just use a script and force-close ED at the press of a button instead of dying
@@csirke9822 lame
how to get one?
@@denniskondratiuk4859 Rescue ships I think
@istvanzoltan9822 bout the lamest way to avoid playing a game as intended. Go play a game with no risk like wow if that's what you're into. Also if you combat log like that you can get flagged by the community big time.
This is just the thing I was looking for. As a Signal Cartel member in EVE Online, I've been looking for something to do that wasn't quite to the level of the Fuel Rats, but gives me a feeling of accomplishing something good. Saving one Commander is outstanding, but saving dozens of civilians? That feels right. And I already have a Python! Thanks for the idea!
Another suggestion for the class 1 slot would be a SC assist module, especially if you're using an engineered prismatic shield instead of the standard one and can spare a few hp. Using the SC assist to speed up the last part of the approach to the station or rescue ship can save valuable minutes (or at least seconds).
Or speed it up yourself by using advanced techniques :D
@@ag_064 Sure. Could you educate me (and possibly others) about those techniques?
@@danielschuett well the one i know is be in 0:06 from the target and 75% throttle.
I dunno if it's faster than SC assist tho, but i believe it is.
And also there are things like fast approaches, where you jump in really fast
@@ag_064 The one I meant, is to go towards the destination at full speed, if sc assist is enabled, either stay just as much off center or at full throttle, so that the assist does not engage (it would slow you down), then at 7s to the target engage assist until you're about 4ls out, then dip off center or go full throttle for a moment until you're 4s to target, then re-engage assist. If it works, you'll travel the last seconds of your journey pretty fast.
@@danielschuett yeah kinda like i said too :D, but without the assist module
I've been doing passenger missions sense the war started and getting exquisite focus crystals pretty fast so if you need materials this is a grest way to get money while doing so and helping with the war.
I would probably fit a supercruise assist in the 1 slot. So I can alt-tab without face-planting into a star when I forget to change the throttle after jumping.
Can you fit a second monitor in slot 1? 😁
Love my Rescue-Thon! After ferrying a ton of refugees away from the active HIP systems over the last 2 weeks, I decided to build a Beluga to carry more people per run, but its not *nearly* as fun to fly and was not easy to escape Goid Interdictions until I got the Thrusters engineered up to L5 Dirty + Drag Drives. The 'Thon doesn't require as much engineering to have a nice, fast, versatile Rescue Ship.
I love it when the build I'm already using is the recommended one :D For very little extra weight and power draw, I slapped 3 of the new enhanced turreted AXMCs to pop scouts on the way in to a station. They get shredded by the turrets and I get some extra cash on top.
Can you help me? i'm newbie at the game and i also decided to put in the hardpoints 4 AX Multi-Cannons Turreted to smash some scouts in the process. All the AXMC are the enhanced version (the new one, i guess devs launched days ago)
But the multi cannons don't shoot in this mode, and i want it to shoot in this mode automatically. It only works when i change to "to target" (but this way i need to select a target manually and press the fire button).
- Yes, i have a fire group set. It is on my right mouse button.
- Yes, i'm in combat mode
- Yes, i had the target locked (even isn't needed)
- The scout (enemy) was in a red color
- I also tested with full pips on WEP
- Yes, the cannons is out
- Yes, i was pressing the secondary fire group button a lot of times and nothing happenned
- Yes, the AXMC modules are active and 100% working.
- Yes, i tested far away from the station
And finally, as i said, it only works on "to target" mode in panel number 4 of the ship in the turret mode option.Please help me, i want to use these weapons automatically while docking and leaving the stations that i'm helping to evacuate people.
Have to agree about passenger ships being poor at passenger missions. Also, this build isn’t really very beginner as it has guardian unlocks and some engineering. If you are just beginning, know that I did these missions in an non-engineered python and had no trouble. Just have a small shield and boost and run if hyperdicted. (Oh, and a small fuel scoop)
orca and dolphin are badass for passenger missions especially now with their fast thrusters getting away from thargoids.
@@alexandsimba that’s a really good point.
Another possibility for the Class 1 slots would be cargo racks; while they don't pay nearly as much, you can also pick up injured personnel which use cargo instead of cabins.
Sure, it's just 2 people each, but every station I've been to so far tends to have a few of those "lying around".
Yeah I actually run a split on cargo and passengers. I can take out passengers and escape pods and then return with supplies that the station needs. $$ both ways.
If you go to the right, small stations under attack, you can fill up entirely on cargo racks and still fill your ship each time.
Perfect, I was just wondering how to join the effort as a beginner without engineering!
Well engineer at least the thrusters for that " Get the hell away from me " boost speed . @ 2:10
There is a comment in here saying he didn't engineer anything and has done the missions ok.
@@2wheel_freedom Thanks for the sliver oh hope. Plenty of money from years of exploration, but back in the bubble and don't fancy the grind and missing all the fun. Can afford a few rebuys before I relent.
@@danielrafferty4108 when boosting away all pips to thursters and shields , pop a heat sink. you will have no weps anyways. Might want to add a tiny fuel scoop as that python is a gas guzzler.
@@2wheel_freedom A size 1 or 2 fuel tank helps if you don't want to fuel scoop along the way.
@@2wheel_freedom Thanks for the advice CMDR o7. Managed to do my first successful evac tonight thanks to this video and your comment. It was my second attempt sure. I was all butter fingers with the controls when I got hyperdicted and lost time trying to jump with my hardpoints still deployed, but the 24,000,000 credits more than made up for the 3,000,000 odd rebuy cost.
A warning to Ben Duncan if he reads this, I was playing in open and had a griefer try to interdict and gank me near the rescue megaship, if you're literally just beginning and don't want that grief on top of everything else you might want to try it in solo while you learn the ropes.
P.S
I don't know if it's just a coincedence but I followed the advice of another video of a CMDR running the same type of missions who said he dramatically reduced the chances of thargoid interdictions by firing heat sinks once travelling to to evac site. I avoided any interdiction attempts following suit.
Landing with some action afoot outside the station was still scary, but boosting and heat sinks work even if it was an extremely close call on the second attempt.
God Speed CMDR's o7.
I made about 2b in combat bonds killing goids and got bored and started building an evac ship last nite. Perfect timing for this vid!
That is the way to go for this game in general. I do everything bit and not just one thing for hours. If i have 3 hours to play i spend 1Hour fighting, 1 hour evac and the last hour pimping my ships a bit more by searching material or visit the engineers.
Some people just stick to one thing and wonder why they burn out doing the same thing over and over.😂👍
Get the Sirius heatsinks, if you can. They're lighter than the extra ammo modified regular heatsinks, and you get a total capacity of 5 heatsinks per launcher instead of 4. And every heatsink helps
Thanx for good advise!
A hint for the inexperienced: The Python build with the recommended 500m/s boost speed requieres access to Professor Palin. This requires some Thargoid material farming.
I´ll now try building this with an Orca, as this only requires access to Felicity Farseer.
For rescue, I usually use the Dolphin. Most of the time, I don't have to use a heat sink at all inside of a burning station. The Dolphin hull stays cooler than most other ships. Realize that there is less payload, you usually don't sit in the station very long before rescuing the survivors.
The extra 1 size slot put a flight assist in there and use the ludicrous speed maneuver to get to stations faster. Don’t waste the space with more armor. If you’re not running away and or you get caught, you’re screwed anyway.
Your python looks sick!
Thanks for all the great ED vids! I recently started doing these missions, except I’m more chicken. I do the evacuation missions from Thargoid Watch systems which doesn’t have stations under siege. I still get hyperdicted about 20-30% of the time. My Python people hauler can hold a lot of refugees. I engineered engines to l3 dirty drive tuning. I boost deep into the 400’s and seem to be able to easily outrun the Thargoids. Does dropping heat sinks reduce the chance of hyper diction? If I didn’t run, would they always attack or would they be peaceful if I didn’t target weapons?
Also: I always use docking computer! I love that Blue Danube waltz - every since I first heard on the 16-bit Amiga 500 computer version of Elite!
Is this a good federation rep grind method? could we get a guide for using this war to speed up rep grind? or is it just not worth it. i enjoyed the rep rescue missions from a few years back.
Up the giant ramp Betty!! SPEED IS KEY!!!
Ive retrofitted my Robigo beluga for humanitarian efforts. It was fun
I run a Cutter with lots of passenger and cargo space. I land on burning station, because along with passenger missions they have a lot of high paying cargo missions you can combine for max payout. It's usually ~30 and more mil per run for me.
Odyssey's new UI for cargo missions is total garbage tho and painful.
I'm currently going back and forth between a damaged Coriolis station and a Federation rescue ship in my Anaconda for reputation (though the money is nice too). Is it worth the investment to grab a Python if my main concern is ranking up?
My lazy ass would put Supercruise Assist in that slot 1. Using the supercruise trick really helps in these missions
Would be epic if after thargoid event we could unlock ships like we could build half human half thargoid ship
Rethinking if i need to change my orca for this during front line extraction if i cant get my Beluga engineered properly in time :) thnx for the tip but would prob exchange shield to more cargo instead ;) My stat counting right now indicates that youre getting better chance popping an heatsink before jumping in to system but its to early to say. How ever it now lays at 87.5% contra not using it at 50%
Is odyssey worth getting ? I just came back and what i was playing with my Anaconda and Type-10 Defender is now called Legacy Horizon ? I am downloading live Horizon i guess now ? Do I need to DL Odyssey to stay current, I have heard bad things about that DLC.
the cope cage on that python... i cant lol
If you want speed/heaps of boost and decent jump range for these... wouldn't the Krait Phantom be arguably a better option than the python?
Need more elite Dangerous content!!!!
All we need now is for the servers to be vaguely reliable when it comes to accessing the passenger mission board
This is the exact reason I gave up on these missions and went back to hauling in my Type-9 :(
I think the game is getting confused about the status of the station. I was using the same station again and again, and it didn't have outfitting (button greyed out). When the mission board WASN'T working at that same station, the outfitting button was ENABLED, although clicking it gave a 'transaction error, service not available'
Therefore, it looks a lot more like a bug than a server issue. It's probably because of the new system states, station states, and some flag which is being set incorrectly at times.
I just haven't figured out why yet.
Amazingly the Beluga is even better for these missions for the large stations. Massive fuel tank so no scoop needed and the highest passenger capacity in the game.
What is the comparison to using an Anaconda at stations with a L pad? Does the reward/hr go up? I was using an Anaconda build at Wakata before it came under attack. It still let me rescue passengers, and the only interdictions were from entering the system occasionally. However, I don't remember the payouts being that high even with an Anaconda and maxed passenger count. Apparently I have a faulty memory.
The payout for this isn't high at all. It's less than you get from winged combat, mining or trading.
@@Coecoo Yeah, that's what I was thinking initially. I thought I was only netting ~15 million in a conda. Trading with eddb loops is still more profitable if you're in it just for money. The engineering mats and rep seem worth it though.
@@dryerflyer it's faster to farm materials in robigo passenger tho.
The only benefit to this is having in your conscience that you helped the community goals
The problem with the big ships is that, aside from maybe a fully engineered Cutter, they are incapable of outrunning the Thargs. And, you can't use them of course to land on outposts.
@@StimkySkunko While your jump drive is charging you can turn and boost right past the interceptor, and by the time it's turned and started chasing you should be on your way to supercruise.
o7 cmdrs, does doing rescue mission increases your trade rank?
It seems all the ports i go to are abandoned and theres no one in the passenger lounge, i looked on the map and noticed that all the star systems with thargoids are abandoned. Is this still a viable way to make money?
I assume this is the new stuff happening in the Live server. I've only started getting back into just the Legacy version. And was also sad to see that a difference between having and not having Horizons, doesn't exist. I don't know if they decided to make that free or not, I haven't been in the elite scene for years.
Good job, great vid.
But I have been using a Type-7 with only the FSD engineered. Makes it a bit more hairy.
I know I know, young people don't like hairy. 🧐
👊🏽we from the 70s bro.
And i am from the fifties 😎 .
@@LoneRangerUK1 Almost the same 😁
how come your hangar is so bright? mine is so dark that any livery seems pointless, since i can barely see it..
I’m not seeing any stations to do this at. Is not a thing I can do now? Everything is abandoned
I choose materials all the way over everything else they are a pain in the butt to get without spending hours, especially the higher grades.
Question: Is the "Influence" mission reward completely worthless? I was hoping that reward would maximize effects on the Thargoid War progress-bar (as part of the BGS); but based on everyone else's reaction I'm guessing that it doesn't?
It means you gain more influence with the faction that gave the quest
@@lukeohland4298 - But wait, isn't that Reputation?
@@noelwade yah my bad I worded that wrong, i meant you are gaining influence for that faction in the system you are turning that quest into
Another concise and informative guide! You really do make this game playable and fun. FDev owes you an award 😊
Is this method better than Robigo? My python is parked out there for that run and don't wanna recall it unless it's gonna be worth it
That 6D power distributor looks scary. The boost interval is 10 seconds, thats cutting it fine. After 2 heatsinks its gonna be a boogey man trip.
Do you know that submitting to an interdiction gives you a fast fsd cooldown?
Beluga for the rescue! (in style)
Coool ! Thankyou : p
*******THIS IS ALSO THE BEST WAY TO GRIND FED RANK RIGHT NOW!**********
just go to fed-aligned stations only and take fed-aligned missions only. Choose rep reward for faster grind!
I got my Vette in just a week of on-and-off using this design.
Here's a stupid question. Can you use computer assist landing to automate landing or will you get chewed up doing so?
At rescue ships, yes, at damaged stations, no.
i managed two runs without incident, but now I'm getting pulled from hyperspace and get annihiilated, EVERY TIME!!! What am I doing wrong??
Question, does "mirrored armor" that helps with thermal damage. Also help with heat management?
Nope. Just attacks from weapons.
so i went to cunningham port in hip 25679 and theres no passenger missions but the station is under attack, what gives?
same :(
Anaconda, 184 passenger seats, 50 LY range, speed 354 but unimportant, never gets hyperdicted on the way out, rarely on the way back but in that case just relog, the higher the distance from rescue ship the higher gets the payment, I make 22-35 mil per trip
Better to carry cargo on a Cutter, 10 minutes - 30+- million credits and 100% safe
@@Benchmarklab but you don’t save humanity in the process
I run refugees with my cutter. 160 pax per run. 350 boost outruns most goids and 8A prismatic make the rest irrelevant while I wait for my FSD to cool.
you mean war related hauling or just anywhere? I´m currently trying to do my part ya know 😉
@@Benchmarklab That's what I was thinking. I keep seeing these videos on making "big money" and I keep being amazed at how poorly they pay. I hop into the game, load up 728 tons of silver, jump ~19.73 (one hop), get paid 12-16k per ton depending on exactly where the market is that day. An easy 12-14 million per trip for just a few minutes work. And there is always a 25-40 million per trip route somewhere nearby if I feel like making a few hops to get to it. All these get-rich-quick videos make no sense to me.
I do get the role-playing aspect of it. But, let's face it, there's zero chance of losing this war. So I can't get too into it with that knowledge in the back of my head. Kind of like Powerplay. I know that no matter what I do to support my faction the other factions aren't going to be destroyed. And no matter how little I do, my faction isn't going to be destroyed. So it's hard to take it seriously.
Everyone is going to be Fleet Carrier wealthy soonest.
2023 update: YoU CaN NoW OwN MuLtiPle CaRrieRs !
i have 20 million and recently engineered my first item at farseer. i dont see me getting that "basic" python in the farseeable (pi) future. any noob ship guides?
Is the rescuepod scooping in big Stations still ongoing? like the burning stations befor?
I hope so. I did loads of evacuation missions on burning stations some months ago and scooping up escape pods or personal effects was great fun in the burning, falling debris. I tried it with collector limpets too - it was much quicker but a lot less fun, and felt like a waste of a module slot.
glaive and scythe : 🗿put the humans in the bag kid
Is the Guardian fsd booster necessary ?
is this faster the rb so missions rn ?
Great. Now I just need a "how to get the credits for a python quick" guide.
Biology exploration. Seriously good money fast, and it feels "scienc-ey!" (hah)
Am I doing something wrong ? I put in Class 6 Economy passenger cabins and Class 5,4 etc, when I went to the mission board it told me i need 'CARGO' space, so i put in cargo compartments and now i can take injured passengers ? what gives ? So here's what I've discovered ; no need to go to the stations being attacked by thargoids, find the ones with the white flame over them on the map use cargo containers and you get the same missions without the threat of being busted up by thargoids, the payments are the same.
But they also pay less
@@DowntoEarthAstronomy Hi Mate, you are no doubt right but you didn't comment on the fact that I couldn't use passenger cabins, I had to use cargo, even at Cartmill Gateway, have you got an explanation for that, is it a glitch or are my files screwed up :) o7 Love your content bro.
Is there any new way to make a lot money with a carrier?
For those that want less danger go to Thargoid Alert systems. Less likely for interdiction. I suppose the payout is less, but I haven't checked. o7
Yes, three ships for different purposes. 1) Beluga Alert Pax ship, 2) Python Combat Pax missions, 3) Cutter Combat Cargo.
Console players don't really get to participate but we have to deal with the outcomes. So it's up to PC players to save the bubble.
What can i do, if i am space rich all ready?
Spend it on a carrier, then fly across the galaxy for fun, i probably already spend 5 bil on trit
Be an exempliary human and just help 😈
Do these missions and watch re-buy bankrupt you. 😜
Enable several fleet carriers for people you know, it'll soon rinse it
Boost to rank as well??? If so; thank you!
Can u use apex to enter the system?
Sweet, now I can put my Krait mk2 to good use and evacuate alot of survivors and still make enough credits to upgrade it. I'll probably keep my weaponry on just incase, cause you never know when you might be forced to blast you're way out
Why blast your way out if you could get out faster without the weight of bulky weapons.
- sincerely a fellow Krait pilot who striped his weapons
Works like a charm until that annoying Mission/Passenger load screen failure happens and all your missions time out. Losing you 2-3 hours, lots of money and rep/inf all round
Not anymore. Enter the Scythe. Bring some AX MC's and an ECMS.
Lahua system 73.82 Ly to Ross 112. The new main goal where the surrounding squads concentrate their efforts. o7
So what I've always wondered is why don't they install AX weapons on the stations?
The station weapons system became non functional. AX wouldnt make a difference.
@@Mimeniia They should've listened to Admiral Adama about networked systems... smh
Why the hell do rescue missions have minimum cabin class requirements?
oh that bug is back? I thought they fixed that years ago
Everythings is make money in this game, it's just how fast n efficient, u make it.
Python is the only ship I own. Python is the only ship I need.
I know it's not related to this video in particular, but does anyone know if I can buy the game on Steam and use my previous account from Epic?
You should be able to. Your account with Frontier is separate from your Epic and Steam accounts.
This still any good?
the build in the link has no shield
My bad. Fixed it, thanks.

you could but you loose a size 6 slot and 32 cabin spaces
Not enough money for me to re-install it
Is this available to do on console?
No. I dont believe you have the thargoid invasion on console
Yeahhh, I converted my explorer Anaconda the "Neutron Surfer" to Transport an assload of ppl at once... I get to the rescue ship to find out they don't have a large landing pad... like why!?!?.. so now I'm biological scanning 🤷🏼♂️
As I prepare my anti anti-xeno ship to defend the ammonia bee hive aka maelstrom✊️
The rescue ship should have a large landing pad. Probably a player hogging it if you weren't in solo. Otherwise log out and back in to try again.
Yes they do..One per ship..Sometimes you just gotta wait!
I'm over here in Robigo grinding some cash while I wait my 4 weeks for Prismatic Shields to unlock, might as well help humanity with this Python, eh? The thing that worries me the most about this is learning the technique of getting away from the Thargoids once interdicted. I think I get it based on this video, but I'm still hesitant. Can anyone recommend a more thorough description of how to avoid these things once interdicted? o7
Run.
No, seriously. Just try to power your way out. Boost, heatsinks and if you have an SLF, send it to attack the sour flowers while you escape.
Every second counts while getting the FSD back in order to jump.
You'll probably get mass locked by those fuckers so make sure you have a ship that can make around 450 m/s or more to get away easily.
Heatsink and boost is the way. A little side to side dodging can also help them miss shots sometimes if you are also really cold. If your shields are already down, silent running can help in a true emergency but it is a gamble. You can try to go silent and boost and dodge while waiting for FSD charge as a last ditch effort. Silent running also allows you to overheat yourself easily and get rid of corrosive in seconds, so be sure to practice silent running in a safe space before you get in a situation where you really need it.
If they're pursuing and you can't outrun them to escape the masslock, turn 180 degrees, fly at them, skim by and keep boosting. That should give you enough breathing space to enter supercruise.
@@Sighman Super tip
Liked vid but stopped anyway when you declared we need a python. Don't have that kind of money yet LOL
❤woow
I hate how passenger dedicated ships suck at passengering. my beluga is docked for about 4 years now
Thanks for deleting my post Dave....one more try
...orbis.../l9dk
Didn't delete it. TH-cam just held it for review and has only now had time to review comments ;-)
PSOUT here. I'm the guy that donated 60 Billion cr to FCOC. If you're makeing a money making video hit me up in game or dm to chat. I'm dabbling on donating another 60B this year but am probably too late. ;)
Yay - People smuggling!
So this method is not good for me... I never learned how to dock and never will... I use docking assistant on every ship... the controls are too much for my brain to dock and land
Have you learnt to dock yet? get yourself up to Robigo chum, you will be doing manual docking shieldless in no time and earning the big bux. Thats what Ill be doing soon to get back into Elite, relearn myself some docking there.
Made over 1 billion killing Thargoids
just find it gets really boring after a few hours.
Is this Odyssey or Horizons?
same question
Well, both now that Horizons also got the 4.0 treatment. Not in Legacy Horizons though.
i do be helping. on the Ps5.. soooooooooo ..... not realy doing anything special .....
I want to make money helping the Thargoids. I feel discriminated by Fdev. They should have allowed the community to decide the outcome. Many of us welcome our new overlords.
I'd say they are great fun after a few beers. The stories they'd tell you. 'And we anahilated that species'. 'Ah good one, tell us another'
REBUY twice. This doesn't work, for me at least.
Anti-Thargoid play is for Engineering players and PvP players. I am a simple PvE, and 2 rebuys and I am out.
WELL HOW DO WE GET THE ENGINEERED ITEMS IF YOU ARE A BEGINNER?
Tried this in my stupid Beluga and just failed constantly. Thargoids just blast you to pieces while you try to get to the mail slot. One tip you need to accept the mission to fight the Thargoids (in comms) in order to unlock access to the passenger missions inside the station or it keeps timing out. Also tried it in my Python, but just don't survive long enough to find the mail slot. This has cost me more in rebuy than I made doing combat or rescues. Not having fun with Thargoids. 😒
Adjust your approach to the station when in supercruise (the station's orientation can be seen on your dashboard), that way you can drop out of 'cruise directly in front of the slot.You can then boost to the station or fire heatsinks to approach cold.
Damn, that's probably why my mission board kept timing out the other night, forgot to accept even though I wasn't fighting. 🍻
Yeah lining up the cube like station is a must when coming in, the M stations not so much. Just hit that 6 second mark, and flick your engines to 75%. You'll have tons of time to line that sucker up.
Then just gun it as soon as you come out of supercruise. Don't slow down too fast or your thrusters won't be able to prevent you from skidding. Any where in the blue section of the throttle indicator will let you turn without skidding about.
If you do have to slow down quick, do it in a straight line until your speed is within that blue throttle area, then adjust heading.
I spent many a time bouncing off the sides of the station, getting jammed in the grill etc. Also if you do get jammed in the grill and you're stuck, drop your landing gear or lift it up. It seems to get you unstuck 9/10 times.
@@Dunbar0740 Thanks, I knew about that trick with SC 😁. I guess I just lack the skill to avoid the Thargoids while trying to thread the mail slot. Probably to much use of Auto-dock 😜
