Yep, you are right about that. I mainly play my Taurus solo so I remove them completely but yeah if you want to make sure to have working turret then you can use ballistic weapons but you need to know that you will need to reload after a few ERT missions. Thank you for your thoughts and suggestions!
1 important thing go into power management. Turn of the tractor beam as you dont need it when fighting. Turn of life support. You will need to keep your helmet on or you will die. And turn off one cooler now you have enough power to max out engines guns and shields. Just remember to turn life support back on before you take your helmet off to drink.
@@HighmageDerin I believe only CIG knows answer to that question :). They should be use for cooling the components in our ships or something like that. I believe they will be more important later in development.
Worth noting that in 4.0, prices for size 5 Attritions is 270k for each gun. Many components that are purchasable in 3.23 are not available to be bought in 4.0.
Let's not forget that this is probably temporary thing in 4.0 to prevent component duplication. They will change that probably when 4.0 hits live(not preview) servers. So this will be viable again. Also, 3.24.3 is also still live.
Not a bad option too, I find easier to soft death(disable) ships with Atrittions then with laser canons...Atrittions are buffed a bit and are a good option again.
He my friend again a great video. I got a taurus so im gonne try this, hope we can play together soon my brother.... Seeya in the verse and again great video as always
Hello my friend and thank you! Hope you will enjoy your Taurus. It is a beast of a ship and hope you find Maze. It will bring you a lot of profit. Stay safe in the Verse!
4.0 Update: Since you cannot buy the recommended power plants from this video anymore (only available in contested zones now), an alternative I have found is the StarBurn power plant (about 103,000 aUEC). The cooler he mentions is also no longer available, for that idk any alternatives. o7
Great video. Subbed. Love these changes to the game. Just wondering, if you fired staggered would you get a ‘longer’ burn time from the weapons before it runs out?
Thank you very much for your sub, thoughts and comment. Yeah, I believe you could have a few seconds more in staggered fire mod but you still have 75 shots per weapon. I usually use staggered fire when enemy ship is very red and I want to make sure not to destroy the ship.
Yeah, but I think that damage stays the same since you still have same amount of shots per gun(75), I often use staggered fire when I want enemy ship disabled and not destroyed because I have better firing control. Tnx for the info and your thoughts tho...may the force be with you my friend!
Problem with that now in 4.0 is components availability, but you can sort it out alternatives or fight for the components listed in the consteted zones, for turret weapons, if you dont want to run without any, you can use ballistic cannons or gatling, they dont eat power from main guns pool. Taurus is a great ship.
Thank you for that info regarding components availability in 4.0. I believe this is just a temporary solution for component duplication. Still didn't make the time to test it. Hope tomorrow I will get into 4.0 and see the changes. Again, thank you for your thoughts, may the force be with you!
You don’t need to remove if they a still for they don’t use any energy, dos calculator count those torrents on that’s why the diference of power drain, dos calculator count that someone is on torrents shooting if not how will happens the dps by magic? Not activating those torrents or setting of is the same but you don’t need remove if you need later
What I like to do before landing is limiting my speed to almost minimum which makes ship easy to control while landing. Just make sure that you are always in SCM mode when landing.
@@LORDV4DERONP1LLS Ive been doing that too. the problem is the ridiculously short time ATC gives you to get into that assigned hanger before the doors snap shut in your face :( and its even worse when it always assigns you the bay on the opposite side of the station from you :(
Make sure that you have unlocked your ports if you are trying to mount your weapons with a tractor beam. I think it is right ALT+K for unlocking your ports.
@@LORDV4DERONP1LLS i put them into station inventory using cargo elevator and tried to put them on the normal way. but they never changed or no weapons end up on ship at all
Strange...try to relog and log on again after you put yoir weapons in your inventory. Sometimes you need to relog for scavenged weapons to actually register in your inventory.
@@LORDV4DERONP1LLS tried a few day in a row now. they show up in invetory fine just cannot get them to stick. i figured it might be something they changed to crack down on the insurance fraud people were doing to multiply weapons. guess mine must just be bugged
Insightful, thanks. But what about the recharge time in between the shooting phases? Has its duration got longer or shorter as a result of your changes?
@@LORDV4DERONP1LLS what about a different powerplant with less output but a faster power transfer time? Or have all the transfer times been changed to the same rate?
@EviLNox8 I believe all transfer times are the same in current patch. If u use powerplant with less output then you loose too much on your engines and you need to think about powerplant hp as well.
the only issue with the taurus is the loading elevator and instability when carrying a ground vehicle: Attritions are not stock. I am aware you said that but it is misleading.
Loading elevator works fine when controlled from the pilot seat, unless you mean slow elevator opening and closing when ship is heavily damaged? I agree on ground vehicles sometimes jumps around thoo. Thanks for your thoughts.
I strapped four AD5B Rotary cannons to my tauri, hits like a fucking freight train. I have however put my ARDOR repeaters (pyro repeaters) on the turret and they slap hard.
Video was created in 3.24.3 patch where all components were available for buying!!! How do you think I bought them?

You can also replace the turret weapons with ballistics, removes the power draw and still gives options for multicrew.
I was just about to ask that question. Thanks for answering!

Ive always wondered just what do coolers do for you anyways? I know you need them for the QT drive recharge but other then that why do you need them?

Good video, subscribed ✅
Thank you very much, may the force be with you in the Verse my friend!
I quite like omnisky cannons for that alpha damage, but I should check attritions again some time.
Not a bad option too, I find easier to soft death(disable) ships with Atrittions then with laser canons...Atrittions are buffed a bit and are a good option again.
Thanks for the luxor tip. I prefer Attritions
Thank you for commenting...stay safe in the Verse!

Connie Taurus probably the best overall ship in the game.
I agree on that!
Also. You can change to staggered shots for longer firing times.

not able to find luxcore, will replace with 2 starburns. but feel this wont be as good
I believe they will return all components back to shopes in 4.0.1. I assume you are playing 4.0?
@@LORDV4DERONP1LLS yaa thats correct. jank is at all time high but iv had the m ost fun ever
Ive noticed my Connie always flys like im always in decuppled mode. its a pain in the arss trying to line up with landing bays/pads now :(

That's what I'm wondering. Like damage per minute, not just damage output for 15 seconds.
Thank you for your comment...recharge time stays the same even with the maximum 75 shots per weapon...around 6 seconds.

You can get more power if you turn off 1 cooler since they are broken in the 4.0
Thanks for this info...will try this!
also in 4.0 you can't buy A components so best way is to get the attricians and turn off a fan and the tractor bean
Love this ship, I just fear it's going to get the Corsair treatment at some point.
I believe they will leave Taurus as it is because community reaction after a Corsair nerf!
Will it work with Andromeda ?
Yes, you can apply everything from this video to Andromeda too!
@@LORDV4DERONP1LLS Thank you very much !!!

Yeah, AD5B's are crazy good, used them a lot on my Corsair before nerf!
glad its getting nerf'd so it evens out with the corsair and redeemer. Misery loves company
Didn't see any info about Taurus getting a nerf!
haven't heard about tthis nerf would love to see the sauce!
@@herbv3449 I believe there will not be any nerfs for Taurus anytime soon.
Cant even buy components. At least check this crap before you create a vid on it.
Video was created in 3.24.3 patch where all components were available for buying!!! How do you think I bought them? They have temporarily removed component buying in 4.0 because exploits and this will probably be fixed in 4.0.1 patch.
