Elite Dangerous Starters Guide 2024 | Bounty Hunting

[@Yourmomma568]

As a real noob, I need hand holdy videos like this. Too many guides assume I know anything.

[@eliaspanayi3465]

I have had personal success with a diamondback explorer with a gimballed autocannon on bottom and two fixed pulse lazers on the sides. It's great to be able to keep up the damage and pressure with the autocannon while being able to surgically fire with fixed pulse lazers. I'm mainly a courier/explorer dipping my toe into combat but so far every mission I've taken has been completed with ease

[@HouseShaw]

Great guid! This is exactly how I hunt, minus the sidey. this vid helped me to make sure I’m still hunting efficiently

[@binnus_boppus]

i smashed the like button the same way digm takes screen shots. WITH MY SHNOZZ!!

[@123liveo]

Just starting out and this a very useful. Cheers!

[@shamelescampr5594]

Always use a kill warrant scanner before engaging to gain more money for each kill

[@Digmbot]

Truth

[@MrSvenne88]

Thanks for awesome guide

[@itsdragonpreist9583]

Can you do a guide for systems or docks for setting up bounty hunting

[@Digmbot]

Absolutely.

[@Andrew-ew3uv]

You said you were going to talk about what ships had what roles and you mentioned like 4 hull tanks and thats it.... Also didnt tell us what to look for to determine what its role is.

[@binnus_boppus]

also learn what ships are below you in a haz rez, in my chieftan solo i know i can take vultures and cobras, but stay away from condas, fdls and vettes unless i have uncle digmbot or uncle nitris looking after me

[@TayDaVillain]

This helped thanks got 3 mil in bounties in my eagle lol

[@jamesnicholls704]

Anaconda is a great combat ship!

[@shamelescampr5594]

Any Federation ship or Empire ship is rank locked 🔐 best early on fighter for people to really set a goal for would be a Chieftain was the choice I had made and it was the best choose I made early on in this game

[@Digmbot]

I tend to forget the Chieftain is a thing, since it didn't exist when I was starting out. But it is a VERY nice ship. Very much a good all around craft and I do LOVE those rotating engine nacelles.

[@michaelknight2897]

Does is now kill warrant scan automoatically? I havent played in a while but that appears to be the case.

[@hunterharmak]

You can make the scanner the same button as the one you fire with, so it scans as your shooting down the ship. You might be thinking of that. Otherwise you have to manually hold down the button to scan whilst following them with your reticle.

[@rajdeepdas1842]

His total interface is different... Is that a carriar only thing?

[@Digmbot]

It just a color edit of the HUD config files on PC

[@hanas_340]

Yeahh i lost nearly 500,000 credits yesterday because I died from an asp explorer

[@shock226]

Using the FDL, what should my hard points be? I’m using 4 (or 5 however many I can have) multi cannons and and rail gun but I don’t think that’s good enough.

[@Digmbot]

I am not a big fan of the rail cannon. Focus on the duo. Energy to kill shields. Kinetic to kill hull. You can make your big gun one or the other, depending on what you can afford to fit. But on the FDL, I like to stay with the conventional guns. It doesn't have enough hardpoints to justify a cannon, flak, plasma or the other luxury weapons. Be efficient. You want the bounty dead so you get the bounty. Go in with the "Kill as quick as possible" mindset and be ruthless about tailoring an FDL to that. Because if you do, that ship is a monster.

[@NightOwlGames]

i prefer the viper over the eagle, eagle goes down too easy i can survive more in a viper

[@crawldaddy7]

Plus once you get tired of hunting you can fit it for racing the viper is the meta for canyon raceinf

[@ForwardKinematics]

How did you make the UI good like that lol? mine is no where near as filtered or organized

[@42Cosgrove]

This is probably on odyssey. You could be on the core version

[@ForwardKinematics]

@@42Cosgrove thats seems dumb for the filtering to be locked by purchase

[@ForwardKinematics]

@Zooto Gamer i see, the carrier menus look much better

[@Digmbot]

That would be coorrect, yeah. Sorry, guys, been really busy and haven't had time for comments. December is bonkers.

[@ravenvalentine4919]

how to be a spaceleach while this video is not bad i suggest you be brave ! BEE BRAVE CMDRS !!! take an eagle !! an imperial one even ! load it out with thrusters and power plants and hook a kill scanner , get a switch for the flight assist to be turned off on the ready , go take down those targets like a proper bounty hunter ! you will need the experience , dont be a leech

[@binnus_boppus]

its soo smoolll, what a cute sidey

[@garethde-witt6433]

I sold my corvette I just didn’t like it

[@Digmbot]

I can see that. Its a fickle ship.

[@bobobobo8238]

Starting your video with crying over something insignificant isn't going to help you

[@Digmbot]

Cyring? No. Pointing out that the main thrust of the original video was missed, yes. And you have missed the main thrust of this new video as well. I suggest that you watch more than 30 seconds of a video before offering feedback.
