Very nice! I’m on hopefully the final leg of my journey to Beagle Point with the Distant Worlds 2 expedition. My Anaconda is named “Azhanti High Lightning” and she uses the same paint scheme as the one in this video. Except I haven’t been able to get a refresh on the paint since Explorer’s anchorage. And there’s about as much primer and bare metal showing as paint now from 20,000+ LY worth of interstellar dust bombardment. But otherwise she’s holding up nicely. And yeah. The range on this ship - particularly once you get an A-rated FSD with engineering mods and a Guardian FSD booster - is just phenomenal. I’m getting close to 60LY jump range. About 225 if using a Neutron Boost. Plus I can carry 2 SRVs and 2 SLF scout fighters. I’m also kitted our with repair and refuel limpets to assist other CMDRs out here if they need it. The Anaconda is basically the same as the Cobra Mk III, just on a larger scale. A ship that can do anything, go anywhere and haul anything. In 7 league boots with style!

I have one. Absolutely love it. Haven’t played in a while but this video motivated me to get back in tonight.

[@reesetorwad8346]

OVERALL best ship in the game. Everything else is a specialist in one area or another, except exploration, where it's the king. Btw, seems you inadvertently picked up some garbage with your diamonds. Recommend jettisoning that shit. Near a star. It's the kindest thing, really. lol

[@Supremax67]

Best ship in the game would imply it can land anywhere, it cannot.

[@ChessArmyCommander]

@@Supremax67 All things considered, Anaconda is the best ship. Other than the restricted access premium ships. I don't know about those, I've never had them.

[@Supremax67]

@@ChessArmyCommander -- So it started landing on medium size pads?

[@ChessArmyCommander]

@@Supremax67 "All things considered" means not just considering one thing or just a few things. But rather, considering everything that can be done in the game. And the Anaconda is awesome. I just got one, and it can do so much! And the experience is so good, that I haven't even missed not being able to use outposts. Also, my last ship was a Python, and we all know how great that is. But the Anaconda actually felt like a major step up and that's saying something.

After spending two years grinding for the cutter it's worth it baby

[@DanTKD87]

2 years?! You must have played long before the big bucks arrived.

[@therealstubot]

Wow thats dedication. I grinded about 5 weeks total to get my cutter rank. I did a mix of mining, trading and the fastest was rescue missions. I used the same strategy to grind out the Federation rank in even less time. Currently the cutter is the least used ship I own. I had it set up for mining, and got jumped by a pair of viper mk III's with about 500t of painite in my hold. Those NPC's flew rings around me and took my shields down, and were determined to kill me. I ended up running away, like a scared little shit, high waking in the nick of time. Yes, I had a small shield to maximize the cargo capacity of my ship, but I had beam laser turrets and multicannons that didn't seem to touch either of them, and I could not out run them either. Now my cutter is a cargo ship that gets used on the occasional beer run missions. I love the style, sound and power of the ship, but its lousy in a fight.

[@jeffreymelton2200]

[@Georgeelhindi]

Dude. You are a salesman. Heart to heart.

[@zaretya9091]

"It has the fourth largest cargo capacity in the galaxy. *For moving things."* Well what else were you gonna do with that cargo space?

[@joaogomes9405]

You can also move people if you're an imperial. Although, if you're an imperial slaves probably count as things and not people.

[@HaloFTW55]

Imperial Slaves still counts as people, unless their owners are dishonourable cretins.

[@xiaowei1374]

try VR, I still remember the first time I fly my conda in VR, the moment I realize how big of a beast she is....And that just make me appreciate it more.

[@PoliceTelephoneBox]

Glad I watched this before I got mine. Made me really understand the ship. And I love it.

[@robertnoonan7217]

Ive been playing elite dangerous for just under a week and i bought my anaconda yesterday. I must say its a beast of a ship ive boosted its hull strength to nearly 2000 and upgraded it to turn it into a beast spent about 260 million credits on it and hey im ripping bandits and wanted players to pieces. In my opinion the anaconda is worth it though do keep in mind i also have used her to go mining as well and shes never let me down. Well worth the credits in the end plus looking out over that bridge and seeing the nose of the ship loaded with turreted pulse lasers and my huge hardpoint as a multi cannon with another two on the side hard points makes me feel indestructible and over powred as all heck. 😁 great vid man keep them coming glad to see people really giving the conda some love!

Every now and then i come back to this video. I cant touch the game right now, but when something good comes, i know which ship i will be flying to explore it. Best ship in the game.

[@DeetexSeraphine]

D'awwww, that's such a cute thought, Lonely Limpets... I had a few things I wanted to say, in regards to the points you raise in this video, but one comment you make stands out and in it's sentiment and delivery, I will agree with you and drop my arguments. Yes. This is the ship a lot of people aim for. This is the measure of a man, the metric by which the game is made. Across my Elite career, I've owned three. First one was lost in a mission I failed to nice was a Wing mission. Replaced with wallet balance. Second one was lost and not recovered due to said same, aforementioned wallet not being fat enough. Third one was sold to make financial room for a Federal Corvette... and though I love my 'vette for it's unbridled, brutal and barbaric brawn... I miss my conda... You never forget your first... whether it's a kiss, coitus or capitol ship... You never forget your first....
