Uhhh, yeah. Quite obscenely engineered. The stock Type 10 is like an in-game migraine. The build is in the description. :)

@@Kaethena Ah to bad. I don't wanna bother with engineering. Imo one needs one or more diagnoses to actually enjoy that. :p

I doubt I am either of those, lol. And this was quite a long time ago when the Thargoids were arguably at their weakest so I don't know how relevant this still is. But back then... yeah... I'd seen the Cyclopes taken down relatively fast with just the Shard Cannons on an Anaconda so I was like "What if you do that with a ship that has more hardpoints than a strip club at happy hour?" and pile on the missile racks. :D

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. And unlike Shield Boosters which increase shield health as a percentage, the Shield Reinforcement increases shield health by a flat amount. 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. :)

@@Kaethena Again the question GUARDIAN Shield reinforcement package are only used fighting Thargoids because it gives you protection against Caustic Damage. If you are not fighting Thargoids, Engineered Hull reinforcement packages HEAVY DUTY/DEEP PLATING will gives you more protection

@@bernardsaavedra675 No they aren't only used fighting against Thargoids, and no they don't provide protection against Caustic damage. You're thinking of the Guardian Hull Reinforcement, which absolutely does. These are SHIELD Reinforcement packages. Totally different thing. They're used to increase shield health. Nothing to do with the ship's hull whatsoever.

@@Kaethena Understood, you are right!, question, are they affected with the Thargoid Pulse attack like the Guardian modules are?

You're welcome. Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you.

The thing is, when you have a high ranked AI pilot... that SLF becomes a lethal weapon. One which punches above its weight. They become a mobile Class 4 hardpoint. Something you can't get on the Chief. As much as I like that ship... SLFs are vastly underused, and underrated. Something FDev understood when they made this ship.

Lol I am not a guy, and yeah... back when I did this... I didn't want my ship to melt from the corrosive damage so I just got the hell out of dodge. :D

Someone having a really bad day! LOL :D

I mean not when faced with a battleship worth of ordnance :D

The Type 10 one of my favourite ships in the game. Hands down. She isn't graceful. She's a sledgehammer with a spoiler. And I make no bones about that, lol. She has more damage potential than any of the other Large ships if you use her the way she wants to be used.

I did in the past. Then I swapped to an X56 Hotas. But I still have some things bound to the controller for ease of use.

@@Kaethena I see, I ask because I've been thinking of getting Elite and such for PC, I just recently got a rig (and it's almost paid off!) But the controls kind of dissuaded me once I saw them, but I've seen people without the mouse indicator such as you so I was wondering what was what :P

@@ArthurReinhaldri You can use a HOTAS, or a controller, or even a mouse and keyboard. The game works equally well on all of them. Elite (pre-odyssey) is on consoles, and developed with controllers in mind. All the keys/buttons can be mapped to a controller for the most part, if you don't want to invest in a HOTAS. I used one for the longest time with no issues.

At the time of making this, you couldn't use premium ammo for the advanced launchers. You could only swap between normal ammo and anti-xeno ammo. So I was using AX ammo with the launchers and premium ammo on the shard cannons.

Of course. It's an edit to the config files and the code you'll need is: <MatrixRed> 0.3, 0.05, 1.2 </MatrixRed> <MatrixGreen> -0.15, 2, -0.5 </MatrixGreen> <MatrixBlue> 1, -1.3, 0.7 </MatrixBlue>

thank you so much!!!!!!!@@Kaethena

Don't say goodbye. Think of other things do to. I hate the thought of any ship being consigned to oblivion by someone in FDev's design department. I think every ship has its place, you just have to think outside the box.

Thank you very much. Dogfighting is a skill lost in a big part of the game. It's nice to get back to that sometimes and hone those skills to keep you sharp. :)

Yeah it came close. I had several Incendiary leadspitters, which adds a lot of heat buildup, even on MC's.

Don't try to "git gud". That's something people say to people when they want to feel superior. Find your own way and your own method of playing the game, hon. The Krait Mk 2 is a great ship. She will serve you well for a long time. Listen, you'll get there eventually. I was playing a long, LONG time. So don't think you have to do it all in one go, or understand it all in one go. 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. Often you'll discover more engineers by using the ones you have access to. It's like a path of progression. Once you use the ones you can enough, you'll get access to other ones.

@Kaethena you are right! I went on an engineering spree after I went on a mats gathering journey. And wholly heck the difference! I really love this game. It is crazy deep. Now that I got the thruster good ish and almost completely decked the multicannons out, I'm actually seeing some progress! Thank you, muchos for the support! I will keep getting it. I will also stop saying the git good also. You're right. That is something jerks say, lol

Thank you. I was never a fan of the Gauss Cannons, honestly. That was just more brute force "Throw the kitchen sink at the thing", lol.

It is, but it's expensive to run if you want to synth premium ammo. I kind of always felt laser weaponry should have its own version of synthesis, because otherwise it's just not really viable unless you want to mindlessly farm kills in scenarios way below your skill level. (says the person melting mindless ne'er-do-wells in a hazres, lol). But you get my point.

No, this isn't viable against harder variants. Fdev wised up.

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.

It is. :) Go for it.

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.

Ship build is in the description. Buy a Type-10 and the stock modules, then do an obscene amount of engineering on them. :)

Glad to inform you the game has a new lease on life, new ships this year and revamping the awful power play system

Things have improved. But this year things are supposed to get better with actual content, 3 new ships, new power play system, an end or “ending phase” of the thargoid war.

LOL! I like that.

Very true.

Sorry for the late reply but thank you very much. Yeah this was kind of the Anti-Cutter, but she works very well.

he use FIXED railguns so the damages are better, still .... that 30% negated ....

Yeah I never saw the point of just hoarding materials and sitting on them basically forever. Why even collect stuff if you're not going to use it?

Lol. Okay. :D Have fun waving your e-peens around. :P
