Elite: Dangerous Odyssey - RAIL-CONDA vs Imperial Eagle PVP

[@yogwa51th]

Impressive fight. Well done.

[@DoctyrEvil]

Bad energy configuration on the Anaconda perhaps? He doesn't get of any shots when he should. Though you Eagle is pretty squirrely too. We also learn of the value of point defense! A lesson in perseverance and keeping a level head. Thank you for posting and annotating!

[@DocteurGui]

nah, im just shit, couldn't hit my shot, also didn't check his build before so got surprised

[@DoctyrEvil]

@@DocteurGui aw, you stood your ground and didn't panic. Give yourself some credit! The ship type matchup is also very tough for both pilots. One mistake and he could have ended up as a smudge on your canopy.

[@ratstar4102]

@@DocteurGui I hope you didnt uninstall the game, you did a goodjob, its just this pilot knows to use his tiny ship ....its just the weapon matchups decided the battle

[@DocteurGui]

@@DoctyrEvil should've just straigh up won, this was close cause im a kekega, also didn't do pvp in a while

[@DocteurGui]

@@ratstar4102 If i had unistalled everytime i'd lost a fight, i wouldn't be playing since quite a while, break of the game was too long, just sad there's no good quality fights anymore

[@SylvanasCry]

As always, watched in one breath. Impressive!

[@actron400]

maybe this is the best elite duel I've seen so far

[@marssone7015]

Epic fight! good job to both of you cmdrs o7

[@DocteurGui]

gg mate, didn't check your build, also explo conda moment with shit hull and shields

[@CMDRNaQan]

I felt that something was off when your shields popped right away. Then took so much damage. Yet your piloting kept me from relaxing, at the end of the day, you still had railguns and I’m in an iEagle lol

[@dmain6735]

Intense. Best duel I've seen in ages. o7

[@CMDRNaQan]

I shouldn’t have survived this fight! o7

[@simonebanana]

Impressive flight that Conda!!

[@Spyke114]

Missiles continue to impress

[@CMDRNaQan]

Along with the terror of the shrieking sounds of those Missile

[@user-25352]

surprisingly high damage on hull, almost as if it wasn't fit to be resistant

[@nahsonnn2573]

Excellent fight Cmdr, it's like watching a movie it's so epic! As a Cmdr who doesn't engage in PvP at all it makes me realize that a pilot with your skillset would destroy me in seconds no matter the ship I fly 😂

[@CMDRNaQan]

Thanks! The fact that you just watched this engagement, has already increased your situational awareness of possible threats that might come your way. This knowledge will greatly increase your chances of survival in the event a cmdr might interdict you (assuming your in open). Fly safe o7

@@CMDRNaQan Damn straight, skippy! Real fighter pilots watch vids too.

[@TalonAvex]

Nice fight by both commanders!

[@DmytroBogdan]

Wow, I know your opponent he is on my friends list And yes, he is an armed explorer :)

[@grouchpotato6197]

apparantly in Odyssey, if u lose canopy and put night vision on, then u get ur sights back

[@CMDRNaQan]

That’s awesome! Thanks for the heads up! Now let’s hope they won’t patch it!

[@DmytroBogdan]

@@CMDRNaQan oh you shouldn't worry about it! Its FDev we're talking here 😂👌

[@CMDRNaQan]

@@DmytroBogdan FDEV nerfed all my builds since 2015. -Pre-engineer, vanilla torpedo boats, they added arming time. No more insta-popping ships point blank with 4-6 torps. -stealth hull tanks, they added emissives, night vision. -mine launchers, also added arming time.

[@DmytroBogdan]

@@CMDRNaQan oh, I see.. I never was a combat pilot, myself. Dark times indeed...

[@TapticDigital]

@@CMDRNaQan sleeper keelback was my favorite build of yours.

[@ratstar4102]

you had a technical fight good job

[@DurokSubaka]

That was too close for comfort. GG

[@reesetorwad8346]

👍

[@halopro058]

Well fought Cmdr!

[@cillitbang6696]

awesome fight! you had me worried about your near miss rammage with such low hull. I'm surprised he stayed for the fight whilst you went to 7km+. I generally just use avoidance tactics at close range while synthing to try and keep them interested. All in all, brilliant. Keep it up.

[@CMDRNaQan]

You know what, I always thought you couldn’t leave that screen when synthesizing! lol I’m such a noob still! But then, he began getting his rhythm on getting those separation, would’ve been too risky and have the synth get interrupted, really I should’ve have survived, he was very good, in a explor-conda too

[@ballizticturtle4256]

Miss your videos as well man

[@CMDRNaQan]

@@ballizticturtle4256 I hope he comes back! There will be a lot of Console players switching over to PC very soon!

[@gunnerguy0107]

Why did he use rails on a large ship? Powerplant capacity?

[@frankdrebin7285]

Noice! 👍👍💪

[@antoineboussemart1062]

What s kind of missiles rack you use Cmdr? Nice fight 07

[@CMDRNaQan]

Class 1 Advance Missile Rack, Grade 5 Rapid Fire. One with Penetrators Munitions, other with FSD Interrupt

[@antoineboussemart1062]

@@CMDRNaQan Pretty nice damage for this build ;) i ll try soon ,;)

[@CMDRNaQan]

@@antoineboussemart1062 sometimes I double up on Penetrator munitions for faster kill. Then regret it at times I needed fsd interrupt. Fsd interrupt is great when ships line up to jump and you can get ahead of them and drop mines, the fsd interrupt will buy you enough time to drop even more mines as they stay on their fsd vector

[@SofaKingJAD3D]

Holy shit...an eagle taking a conda... the game sure has changed quite a bit since i left

[@CMDRNaQan]

Lots of new content worth checking out!

[@nitehhawk9868]

I have to ask. Do you fly with Mouse and keyboard? And as always, I love your videos :)

[@CMDRNaQan]

Yes mouse and keyboard for combat, but numpad for super cruise. (Since relative mouse is on). And thank you!

[@nitehhawk9868]

@@CMDRNaQan Thank you for the reply. And that is a great ide to use numpad for super cruise.

[@nitehhawk9868]

@@CMDRNaQan One more question. I am trying to use relative mouse for the FA off, and I am struggling to fly with FA on, it just feels strange. Is there a way to help with that, or more a thing you just need to get used 2 :)

[@CMDRNaQan]

@@nitehhawk9868 With relative mouse not good for FA-On. Although, I use FA-on to help stabilize my ship, or use like “air brakes” when I’m doing right maneuvers, I flip it on and off constantly.

[@pimpchimpin3472]

If bro had 8 frag cannons the fight wouldve been over in 2 seconds

[@CMDRNaQan]

Not necessarily, I would have the range and speed advantage, I would remain in silent running to negate the lead reticle of frags, it will much easier since I don’t have to worry about hitscan, the spread of the frags and my small ship profile will reduce its effectiveness. They’ll need to hit me broadside while I’m turning to maximize damage output of frags, which is something I keep in mind, and ensure I don’t present my ship. At the end of the day, it’s a the conda is a slow lumbering huge target.

[@FlecheDeFer]

The way the CMDR behaves at first makes no sense: he knows you have mines so he should know it's reverb, he has the much slower ship so he knows he will never touch you at close range either with RG or Cannon, he knows he has long-range weapons that can basically kill you in one shot if he can get a clean one... Time is on his side. So what does he do? He charges... Weird. Still, GG both of you

[@CMDRNaQan]

My opponent actually found this video and left a comment, he mentioned not checking my load out before engaging. Part of making this build successful is that it’s an Imperial Eagle, I’m betting on my opponent to become complacent and make the mistake of thinking it’s an easy kill. It’s part of masking my loadout. Some call it target fixation or tunnel vision. And it works :)

[@FlecheDeFer]

@@CMDRNaQan Yeah I totally agree! Most CMDRs are complacent against small ships. I fly flechettes DBX/Courier and somehow big ships like to interdict me (because I'm small I figure), even if such a build actually works best against big ships. Same fixation can be said of NPCs: lots of CMDRs boast how they can easily shred Corvettes but killing a mere Sidewinder with fixed weapons is far more difficult a challenge.
