@@eliteengineerdaz yep, did not try yet the moded gauss but plasmas work only on distro 7 and krait is way toooo slow in turns. Get shards either on challenger or on FAS, 3 are enough.
With 'leading' you have the circle that you have to place over the target and with 'trailing' you just use the dots. I personally struggled with 'leading' when I first used these modified Shard Cannons and found that I was far more accurate with 'trailing'. It's personal preference at the end of the day.
You make your life unnecessarily difficult. Do away with the scanner, it is of no use. The "puff" indicates the shield of the Interceptor down. Get 3 sirius heatsinks instead, keep the neutralizer. Install a size 5 weapon stabilizer and 3 size 2 plus 2 size 1 modified shards and one size 1 beam turret, long range thermal vent, all on one fire button. You can finish the Thargoid together with heart 3, no need for the rest. Just make sure the shards reload before killing heart 3, then kill the heart and another 2 shots will finish the Cyclops. You don't need FA off in this ship, you are right. And if you feel like it, kill it all the way, just stay in, ignore the lightning and caustic missile attack. Fire happily away and put a heatsink in from time to time. It's very quick. (Actually you can insta-gank a Cyclops with regular Ammo, but that requires everything to fit perfectly and not some NPCs triggering panic shields, one shard not reloading in time, forgetting 4 weapons pips, heatsink at the wrong time, etc. After heart 2 is easy, after heart 3 every skill level can do it.)
First, thanks for taking the time to watch my video. 😎 When I built this ship, it was before the weapon stabiliser was released. Even in this configuration, it was still effortless to kill a lone Cyclops. When I fly for myself I always drop the Xeno Scanner for an additional Heatsink. For my channel, I try to build my ships to help people of all skill levels, I have even mentioned in my other AX builds, to drop the scanner when you grow in confidence. 👍

Wow that was fun to watch! Really good strategy and tactics. I like the blue exterior and interior as well. You make it look easy...
The VR POV is so good
Looks like the good ol' Boom and Zoom tactic works here as well, proven since 1940
@@kalui96 'Boom and Zoom' 🤣👍
Thanks for the tips, im not good at F/A off either. i will try your way. 👍
Just be careful when defending a planetary base, keep an eye on the ground! 😅👍
Nicely done! I always go for turret beams so I can concentrate on getting a good orbit but you made it work your way too 👍🏽 keep up the good work CMDR
Much appreciated, thank you 😎👍
Nicely done!
I have been using pre-engineered plasmas, but think I will try the shards 🤔
o7
I've tried both and I'm definitely leaning towards the Shards 😎👍

There is no link to he build or i'm wrong
Link at the end of the video 👍
Nicely done cmdr! Will you be doing one with the new stabilisers? If you are cant wait! o7
Another thing do you flight stick? if you do you can orbit easier because you can control the your left / right movement ...
Hotas 😎
whats the idea behind setting targeting to trailing, i see people do it but dunno why?
With 'leading' you have the circle that you have to place over the target and with 'trailing' you just use the dots. I personally struggled with 'leading' when I first used these modified Shard Cannons and found that I was far more accurate with 'trailing'. It's personal preference at the end of the day.
With the trailing reticle, you have a micro-gimbal indicator that you don't have on the leading sight with fixed weapons.
What’s the full name of the shard cannons you used? Also how are they engineered? Ty!
Everything is explained in this ship's build video and more details in the description. Enjoy 😎

Subbed 👍🏽
Cheers Commander, subbed you awhile back 😅👍
Ohhh your using size 2 modded shards those are great...
can you build one for anaconda or curvet?!
I've already made videos for both. Check out my video list. 👍
