The fact that you armored the cobra more than a default anoconda is just crazy

The absolute hull integrity (the only thing that matters in rams) is 3800. The resistances are still classified.

Hey, it's not ganking if I never broke the speed limit. I didn't even get a fine for this! Oh by the way, this is NOT the big video for this cobra. That's coming later, this was just a side quest.

@@CrimsonGamer99 that makes even better too watch 😂😂😂

[@jzekaron]

If they sat through that whole thing without ever once thinking to disengage the auto pilot or do the "I forgot my limpets" maneuver then I feel like they kinda had it coming for them. Even if they were the only actual player in the station, autodock launching players into NPC ship pile ups or getting stuck on a nearby light pole is a common enough occurrence that you should never really trust it enough to go completely AFK.

[@charlesnchrg3]

This makes it legit. If you don't get a fine you didn't do anything wrong. This is a teaching moment.

@@Nastalas That's only if you go by Steam charts, which represents less than half of the playerbase on PC.

It's not that hard to get a well-shielded conda to jump 70ly, but then you got people out here flying tissue paper builds because it jumps 75ly.

[@Timberwolf69]

@@CrimsonGamer99 I only once flew a ship without shields. Had a brainfart and sold the shield without equipping a new one and took 3% hull damage simply from taking off from a terrestrial port.

[@CrimsonGamer99]

@@Timberwolf69 3% isn't too bad. This dude took 21% backing into the damn buildings lol.

[@Timberwolf69]

@@CrimsonGamer99 3% from simply taking off, without touching anything? I forgot to metion that I got another 3% later when I touched down on a space station... Enough of a reason for me to get at lest a small shield.

[@noble_draconian]

I understand not having hull for a jumpaconda, but absolutely no *shields*? That's just asking for a rebuy in the black lol.

[@Sir-Complains-a-Lot]

A fully d rated, lightweight mod anaconda is going to go boom no matter if you dress it in a little shield or not.

That Conda build actually looks pretty damn nice, might give that a little look-see next time I'm in the mood to punish myself with engineering mats. Fun fun fun.

[@CrimsonGamer99]

I threw that together in like 5 minutes as a "shielded explorer". It can probably be improved.

[@brokenweltall]

Glad you could throw a build at him. Hopefully when it hits him it won't blow up his conda...

[@somedude4805]

I mean, was it an Exploraconda? Cuz that would explain the paper hull.

[@CrimsonGamer99]

Explorer Elite decal emblazoned on the hull

[@cmdr.shurimal8980]

A wet tissue 83 lightyear 'Conda that can't boost, can't do more than a single jump and can't land on any planet sounds about right. But it's 83 lightyears jumprange, which makes it the BEST exploration ship possible, right (/s)?

[@Hekkaryk]

@@cmdr.shurimal8980 I though about it for a while and I've heard actually good reason. There are simply places normal ships can't reach at all; that Jumpacondas can. That's it. The singular use of such ships. Kind of obsoleted by existence of Fleet Carriers though.

[@cmdr.shurimal8980]

@@Hekkaryk Yes, that one single valid use. Comes with a caveat that the place you're going to has a scoopable star, or it's a one-way ticket with the 8 ton fuel tank this build requires. In short, an 83 ly 'Conda is more of a meme ship than a practical build. In any case, a pretty tough 'Conda build with shields and 1300 hull HP-s can still do 74 lightyears, and a Phantom with V1 FSD can do 73.

[@dscrafted]

@@Hekkarykat that point you just take a carrier, having an insane jump range ain't gonna get much more done than a well buit ship that's made to support itself

[@Neo-vz8nh]

That is why I never fly anything without shields. My jump conda even has 1D lightweight hull RP which like gives +25% hull and cost like 0.15 ly. But man, killing a clearly explorer Conda piloted probably by a new player, just because it dont has shield, is like beating up a child because his/her shoue lances are not tied.

[@Maddock_]

The joke is that an elite explorer flying an unarmored, unshielded ’conda in Jameson and in open should really know better.

[@dscrafted]

Dude has spent enough time to get elite in exploration but not enough to realize that a shield is a good idea around the busiest station in the game.

[@maximpikalev9538]

@@Maddock_ you guys sure he's elite? he seems to have modified thruster exhausts so he clearly has enough investment in the game to buy them... if you're right, then as much as I hate this whole "open is a free-for-all where you can be toxic all you want" mentality I will still have to agree that it was naive of him to try and pull into jameson completely unprotected
