The Anaconda is the humble, capable and trusty DIY guru who can do a little bit of everything. The Cutter is the rich, altruistic, well-to-do entrepreneur with style and substance befitting of nobility. The Corvette, on the other hand, is the battle-scarred, grizzled, booming-voiced combat veteran who is absolutely ripped despite being in his sixties.

@@DarthWall275 better theoretical DPS, true. Getting all hardpoints on target, with the underslung size 4, 3 and the 1s? At least the Vette has only the size 3 underneath the ship. Add the Conda's lower speed, and WAY lower turn rate, and your effective DPS goes down. I flew both. For a long time. When the stars align right, the Conda does do more damage. But the stars don't need to align for the Vette. I would never try to use fixed weapons on a Conda, while a pair of size 4 plasma accels on a Vette are a viable build option.

When I first started playing Elite: Dangerous I took a wiki walk to see what the ships looked like. And when I saw this discount Star Destroyer, I knew I had to have it. I put my nose to the grindstone for 5 hours a day, every day, for a month to get this ship and outfit it with A rank modules. Even more time grinding out Engineering materials. And I regert none of it. Nothing this big has any right to turn the way it does. The Anaconda feels like you're turning a barge and the Cutter has a turn radius measured in parsecs, but the Corvette makes you forget you're flying a ship bigger than a sports stadium. She floats like a butterfly and stings like a runaway train, and I wouldn't have her any other way.

"The Cutter has a turn radius measured in parsecs" - best overexaggeration ever. And yet, it somehow is fitting. I always compared the Cutter's flight characteristics to that of a gold ingot strapped to a rocket. It sure as fast and looks magnificent and expensive, but only until you're trying to slow down or turn.

Anthony Field - I dont know how long you'll last before the game burns you out, so I'll try to give you a few tips to make your time "easier". Mining is by far the best way to make money in the game. The sooner you get better at combat the more enjoyable the game will be, but without engineered ships youre gonna be on the receiving end most of the time. Highly recommend engineering your ships as soon as you can, and just look at the requirements for unlocking engineers and push for those goals. For engineering you need manufactured, encoded and raw materials. For manufactured materials you need to go to high population Empire systems (I recommend jumping between CD-63 201, Dimor, Hirapa, Benambo) and farming High Grade Emissions for Imperial Shielding, which then you can trade for other manufactured materials. For encoded materials go the Jameson Crash Site in HIP 12099, with your SRV park in a place from where you can scan all 4 beacons. After scanning all 4, quit to your main menu, log back in to the game and scan all 4 beacons again. Repeat this until your Atypical Encryption Archives and Adaptive Encryptors Capture are full, and you can trade these for other encoded materials. Keep repeating this process until you filled up all your encoded materials or for as long as you want. Starting from the nearest system/station with an encoded material trader which is about 100ly away, one full run will take you about 40 minutes. For raw materials its gonna be a rough ride, you need to find landable planets with geological signals, and with your SRV drive around and pick up any materials you can. OR if somehow you manage to build your ship in a way that gives you a 50ly jump range, you can get to the crystal shard sites in HIP 36601 planet C 1 a, C 1 d, C 3 b, C 5 a (these are biological sites not geological) and the other system Outotz LS-K d8-3 planet B 7 b, B 5 a, B 5 c. The first system is about 1500ly away, and the other is several hundred ly away from the first one. Its gonna be a long journey IF your ship has the jump range in the first place, if not, then stay in the bubble. In open play I recommend staying away from Shinrarta Dezhra system, in fact I recommend playing in Solo until youve got several hundred hours behind you playing. I also recommend ranking up in the Federation and in the Empire. For the best combat ship which the video is about, the Corvette, you need to rank up in Federation. For the best trading ship (Imperial Cutter) you need to rank up in Empire. It might be tempting to buy the Type 9 Heavy because it requires no ranks, but its a trap. You will be interdicted by absolutely everybody, and it barely has any weapons, your experience will not be a pleasant one if you decide to trade with a Type 9. Thats why you need to go down on the hell of a grind and get a Cutter. But before getting these youre probably gonna use a Python for hundreds of hours, and then an Anaconda. Other things that will help you big time are the third party websites called inara dot cz and eddb dot io, and for ship building coriolis dot io And also youtube channels like ObsidianAnt, Down To Earth Astronomy, EDTutorials by Exigeous and etc.

You know it means power, it means dominance. You have been trained, conditioned since childhood, since your earliest memories of scifi that there is only one correct reaction when you see this behemoth gliding over you: Fear.

To be fair, that bright yellow gunship of mine is an absolute meme build, and is designed to take out the shields, thrusters, and weapons of large ships in wing fights or 1v1s. If I was in a meta prismo FDL, I wouldn't have the DPS to keep up with this beast of a ship's shields. So unless you're flying a literal cheese build, be wary of the Corvette, folks.

You do have a point but so do I when I say I LIKE the fact that this big ship, can take more damage and dish out more but is vulnerable to smaller dedicated war ships used by better pilots. That IS balance. Just having ONE ship dominate in all areas of combat, all the time would indeed be an utter failure on the games part. What you see as a weakness in the game I see as its very strength. You still get a lot with the Corvette. It can do many things if not all. It can fight and transport valuables well. Of course ships purely honed to kill should be able in talented hands to beat it. As in WWII air or tank battles, the plane or tank DOES matter but the pilot using it even more. I think it is perfect as is!

Since that time I have come back to this video no less than six times, and watched it in full, completely enraptured. I've by now watched the whole series and I can say that this is the most evocative of the bunch - 4:47-5:30 is enthralling, drawing the viewer into the moment. Masterfully done. So much so in fact, that this video was the primary motivator to my Elite purchase ten minutes ago. I hope you're still flying the black, Pilot - Fair winds and following seas, sir.

That was magnificent, and a perfect end to a fantastic series. I feel like I need a cigarette after watching that, and I don't smoke. The Corvette isn't my favorite ship, but it is the first ship I ever bought two of, and the 8 months I spent building my beloved AX Corvette represent the most effort I've ever put into a single goal in any videogame ever. I loved every minute of it (well, mostly), and it paved the way for every ship I've built since. One critique of your video: you don't walk out onto the battlefield in a 'vette. You stride like an angry god.

I literally watched all of these looking for this specific video. The Corvette is my favorite ship for any large ship engagement. I do enjoy my kraits for other tasks from time to time, but I can tell you that the feeling of pride when you finally unlock it, and do all the work and research to outfit it just the way you want... I've never spent so much time engineering, or caring so much about the engineering of any other ship in the entire game, and I've logged over 1800 hours. The grind was difficult, and more difficult then than it is today, but I won't forget purchasing it and absorbing every moment of the transaction. The accomplishment felt was real, and everything described in this video of people who's experienced it and loved it is absolutely true. I have different ships for different purposes, and even bought multiple kraits to have different outfitting for whatever task at hand... but I will never ever buy more than one Corvette, because all I needed was one. I'm glad to see you enjoying it and hope you enjoy it as much as any of the folks in the video did. It's definitely one of the most special.

Being an Imp player and doing the Fed grind anyway to have this ship. I painted it white, put Imperial decals on it, and named it the Benedict Arnold. And yet, given the choice between the Cutter and the 'Vette, I still prefer to take this one out more. I just don't feel the weight in the Cutter like I do on this ship, it feels like it looks, and that feeling is great. This was superb, and I can't wait to see what you are going to do now that the ships are finished.

But I can honestly say that no ship brings a smile to my face more. I've overthrown entire systems on my own using this ship. And I'll continue to use it until my last day in ED. I don't PvP so this ship is a complete bomb. I'm so happy this video has finally been made. Props to you sir

The Corvette is a dope vessel .. i think its physical appearance really gives off a military vehicle vibe more than the civilian and aristocratic vibe of other ships .. i like the empire ships they are pretty but they are not as imposing as the corvette i think core dynamics ships look aggressive they are built to project military might.. the anaconda is intimidating in a barroom brawler way and the empire ships are like supermodels that know kung fu 😁

As someone who just got his Corvette back from his old console account, I choked up when you called it a work of art. Because that's exactly what it is. Having flown the Vette, The Krait and the anaconda, The Corvette and Krait are easily my favourite combat ships, and my anaconda is just there for mining, because it turns like a zeppelin, to the corvettes heavy fighter like handling. (still a massive ship, but infinitely more manoeuvrable than trying to turn a beached whale) and the Krait's versatility and handling in a much smaller package, and its epic jump range.
