Third Love & Second Time Python Shopping & Combat In Elite Dangerous 4K/60fps

[@I_am_not_a_rob0t]

Pretty much everyone learns the lesson of “don’t fly without a rebuy” the hard way, lol. And a tip for combat, turning off flight assist can make you faster/more agile. Takes quite a bit of practice to learn to control though.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

will practice that thx

[@kszaxou]

Love seeing new people experience this game! Quick tip about ship modules: dont just A rate everything. A-rate is high performance, usually very expensive and takes a lot of power. (Good for some modules like FSD) B is heavy and has more integrity. Good for combat ships. C is designed to be balanced D is lightweight but more fragile. It is good for exploring since weight affects jump range. Hope this helps!

[@DocScalawag]

There are other considerations as well. Biweave shields tend to be more effective than A-rated generators. You trade overall shield strength for a significantly faster regeneration rate.

[@TheShugoBR]

also can change the power priority of modules on the right panel on one of the tabs, to deactivate some modules when in combat, that is why you see 2 energy bars

[@TheShugoBR]

and also would recommend to have like 2 medium gimbald lases to get rid of shields faster, and the multicannons to get rid of hull faster

[@figeluren]

Never considered that, awesome tip. Thank you. =)

[@Foxyloxy.X]

These are much needed tips, thx!

[@JosephLinares]

Ahhh… the Python. If there was only one ship in Elite Dangerous, I would want it to be this ship.

[@bladestech]

Interesting python build! By the way, if you are focused on combat in specific, you could give the Krait MK2 a try, its almost the same as the python, but faster and more agile

[@DocScalawag]

This

[@raymobula]

And has an SLF as support.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

thx for the recommendation

[@atheos.1383]

@@Foxyloxy.X Definitely agree with his suggestion. Same hardpoint size/amount, much better speed/agility, similar durability in shields and armor(at bit less but more than made up for in maneaverability). Its also the ship you have in your dash holograms. The python is an all-purpose ship, that can definitely fight. The Krait mk2 is a combat ship, that can still do be all-purpose, it leans more combat heavy than the python basically. And when you branch out from combat, the Krait Phantom is the upgrade to the ASP Explorer. Its an ASP explorer with a combat ship's flight profile, a bit more optional space I think, and much better looks/engine sounds. But definitely just pick what you enjoy, and have fun experimenting. Thats half the fun in elite, imo. Building many ships for many purposes, and experiencing each one for different reasons. And the python is definitely a well loved ship by many. Some consider it the peak ship of the Medium class ships.

[@Chief_lung]

I look forward to when you start engineering and exploring deep space. When your jump range gets to the 50-60ly range, possibilities are endless

[@Foxyloxy.X]

can't wait for that

[@thecymrus3219]

Those white squares that drop when you kill a ship are engineering materials you will need for upgrades. You can use your cargo scoop to collect them until you get a collector limpet set up.

Hey CMDR. I've enjoyed your videos so far and have tried to post comments but YT bots are having none of it. I can't post a website link, even if obfuscated, so the best I can do is direct you to Barry Gateway station in system Gliese 3371 where everything you buy, including a Python, is 15% off. It doesn't seem like much but that applies to purchase price now, and future cost of insurance and transport for the life of your ship. Always go to a Li Yong-Rui controlled system for the 15% discount.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Thanks for this great info, I will google it see where it is and buy my ships from there, much appreciated

[@cmdrsesslaine8701]

[@boingthegoat7764]

[@raymobula]

You could target the subsystems, like the FSD. So they can’t jump out, until they do an emergency repair.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

really good to know what, thx

[@figeluren]

If you want to excel in space combat, I suggest you learn how to toggle flight assist on and off. Flight assist on basically lets you fly the ship as an airplane while off lets you fly it as a space ship. Both have pros and cons. Learn them both. ;)

[@Foxyloxy.X]

got it!

[@danielschuett]

While it's fun to run around the station and visit the ship vendor on foot, it's faster to just buy a new ship from the station menu on your ship. While you can use the Python for just about anything, if you don't want to switch out modules every time you want to do something else, I'd rather just get one Python for combat, one for minig, another for passenger missions, and so on. Ship recommendations: Krait Mk II or Chieftain for combat, maybe some anti-xeno (AX) combat; Imperial Cutter (or Type-9, if you want to feel like a space trucker) for cargo; Krait Phantom, Anaconda or maybe ASP Explorer for exploration. And the Type-10 just for the fun of flying a slow brick with a lot of armour and weapons. To play around with ship builds and also to see the effects of engineering, I'd recommend EDSY.

[@ringofart]

Ok im coming back to elite dangerous

[@Wyrnikh]

Any ship can be made usable. A Python is usability made into a ship. Yes, there are ships that can do each thing better than the Python. But as an all-around, the Python puts most everything else to shame, especially for the price. “Never fly without rebuy.” All large stations have the same internal layout. (Which Frontier would do well to change IMHO) Smaller stations and planetary outposts can vary. That said, ship sales are upstairs to the right, all the way back.

[@rempha]

I use Python mostly for mining and trading at outposts (maximum M size pads) as this is the largest medium ship. Try out Krait Mk2 as it has the same firepower, faster and with slightly better manoeuvrability and you can bring a ship launched fighter to the ship combat experience. You also have a better central unobstructed cockpit view, a better FSD jump range with a loss of just one size 6 module compartment in comparison with the Python. Both ships are great but you can have them set up for different activities.

[@wesguitarguy9536]

Python is S teir all rounder. Recommend you go mining. Get a build to blow up asteroids. It's so cool. Make sure you get to a safe distance before blowing up the asteroid. Stay safe commander o7

[@frankshailes3205]

With some thruster engineering and flight-assist off on turns (you can toggle it) it should move all right - it'll never be the most agile ship, but it can be improved.

[@NietoKT]

4:48 you can sell docking computer, you will just have to land manually... Which is not that hard as it seems There's a tutorial for that if you need it.

[@alexzk3]

Krait MK2 = Python, except, Python has extra 6th slot, while MK2 can use fighters bay, everything else is the same (except hull too), so you can swap things between 2 those hulls.

[@FurtiveSkeptical]

Keep your speed/thrust in the light blue zone on your throttle to get maximum manoeuvrability .

[@saifulazrinfoto9993]

Study shipbuild, don't joy-smack the upgrade.

[@dug3569]

Also that armor a waste unless is a combat build-the base armor doesn’t cost you range even when engineered

[@dug3569]

So far you have avoided the nasty part of the grind -engineering materials

[@figeluren]

My favorite ships are the Krait MKII and the Anaconda.

[@snowmind]

Makes a difference not having dumb npcs waiting stationary for your missiles, huh?

[@krisbeal8173]

I've been using an Asp Explorer to do all of my exo-biology travel/scanning. Good money. The Asp Explorer, with no hardpoints, has lots of range even without being engineered. I've just started learning engineering and made a few upgrades to my ship and am able to jump about 40 LY in one jump now. Best part....the ship is SUPER cheap. Other than that, I mostly use my Python for laser mining. I don't like how horrible it's maneuverability is for combat, so I stick to non-combat stuff for the python.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Thanks for the info!

[@josefodium8888]

Don’t know if you had found out already, but getting your ships and loadouts in Li Yong-Rui controlled systems will be at 15% discount. And the best thing is, that will lower your rebuy costs as well, because they are calculated based on the cost you’ve paid for that ship and upgrades. So, it’s a 15% rebuy discount as well. My favorite system is LHS 20. Ohm City got pretty much everything one would want in a ship.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

I already knew this, but I don't know about LHS 20, will book mark it and check it out, Thx for the info

[@DoctyrEvil]

So much fun watching a new player in 2023! One tip: don't sell ships, just scavenge them for modules. You'll always end up buying another one anyway!

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Got that! Thx

[@ismaelcarrasco]

Not only an inmense firepower. You have bought the single BEST multipurpose allrounder mission runner of élite dangerous. And the medium ship with the largest available cargo space that can land on outpost. The Python is overpowered, and can do absolutely everything if you outifit It well. Enjoy it

[@Foxyloxy.X]

I slowly realize the importance of this medium sized ship.

[@rempha]

Also for best manoeuvrability use the best thrusters, keep out unnecessary weight (you will probably be just fine with a D rated sensor). Next keep your ship thrust in the blue zone around 50%, boost for faster turns, use power management (more power to engine means faster and better turns) and learn to fly without flight assist to improve manoeuvrability. Also you should start engineering important modules like FSD, Thrusters, Shields, Armour, to improve performance and other stats. You can start unlocking your first engineer (Felicity can do lvl 5 FSD and lvl 3 Thrusters and some more). Unfortunately you will need to collect (grind) materials, take your time and use online guides for faster results.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Thanks for the detailed tips

[@hugogonzalez185]

Hi, I've been following you for a long time with the SC videos, but I'm glad to see that you're exploring Elite. Here is a tip that helps you in configuring your ships: - The ratings of the internal components A,B,C,D,E, not only mean that A is better than B, but also mean characteristics of the module. For example, if you want a lighter ship you have to put Class D modules, if you want more tank B is the module, but you add weight and sacrifice maneuverability. If you want more power A is the module but a matter of much more energy consumption, all these variables are recombined when you enter the world of engineering. The Python is a completely different ship once you have it modified with the engineers, a real beauty.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Thank you for these wonderful tips. I love the Python, I sold it to try other ship, but I definitely need to get it back.

[@informedchoice2249]

turn when you're in the blue part of your speed on the throttle

[@alexzk3]

For the combat Krait MK2 with 6th slot fighter bay was my only for long time until I unlocked Corvette. I use bi-wave shield (this is C) which restores fast and often had repair limpets with me - so can run away and repair hull. A few can catch MK2 upgraded.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Nice to this ship can do all this, will try that out, thx!

[@NietoKT]

2:42 not a good idea. With 5 cannons you only deal kinetic damage. Which means that you don't have effective weapon against shields... If i were you i would buy at least 2 pulse or 2 burst lasers. Don't buy beam lasers, because you don't have upgraded power distributor. Lasers are pretty effective against shields, and can damage hull aswell.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

yep, I slowly getting to know each ship weapons, so I mix them now

[@baileyknoll2928]

Like many others, i very much recommend the krait mk II. Way more maneuverable. Lots of people may say the python is the best medium ship, but the krait beats the python in every way but cargo capacity. Next ship? Anaconda of course

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Will give that ship a try, thx!

[@samgau2]

all depend on what you want to do best ship in the game overral is Imperial Cutter. but you will need to grind Imperial rank for this one . my fav combat ship is fer de lance . with is fast movement and size 4 plasma canon my fav mining and trading ship is type 9 . good visibility and cargo capacity my fav jump rang ship Anaconda. this ship is the one with the best jump range my fav explorer . asp explorer . good visibility . good jump range.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

lol...what a difference

[@DocScalawag]

The Krait Mk.II is a good choice if you are a fan of the Python. That's what I mainly fly. It's a great all-rounder. If you want to dogfight, you want a Fer-de-Lance or a Mamba. You were dead-on when you said the size was perfect 5:23. Everyone wants to buy an Anaconda on the first day, but medium ships are the best ships in the game.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Thank for the info, gonna try these ships out, and yeah, medium ships have the firepower but less expensive to operate, it is the best to use for most occassions

[@rempha]

Watch out the module letter ratings. You don’t want to bring unnecessary weight with you, B rating has highest integrity but also biggest weight. D rated is the opposite lowest integrity and lowest weight. A rated is the best module at standard weight, C rated is similar with A but halfway. E is crap, never buy E, even D has better performance than E at lower weight.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Now I understand what these ratings mean, thanks a lot.

[@heywardsmith6508]

don't forget to look for Li Yong-Rui controlled stations they give you a 15% discount on ships and modules which also lowers your Rebuy cost.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Wonderful tips, thx

[@armandoa5468]

When you're equipping your modules you can exceed the power limits of your ships power plant by setting priority of which modules you want to activated. Also you're loosing money when you sale your ship with all modules still installed....sale everything separate and get more money in your return. Since you're focused on combat start learning how to fly with flight assist off. When you want to do something other than combat learn how to core mine its relaxing and fun.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

thanks for the sound advice and tips

[@Aussie-1979]

[@Foxyloxy.X]

[@andyanon5451]

full pips to shields, unless theyve gone down

[@Frozenwinter84]

Add a couple of pulse or burst lasers in to your weapons loadout. Lasers burn shields down faster than multi cannons. Just don't use beam Lasers until you can engineer them and your powerplant as they draw a ton of power.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

ahhh, i see, thx

[@evilsteve8915]

The python is such abeautiful ship. Mine has been my main everyday ship since forever now. I only swap to more specialized ships when necessary.

[@Ohlukei]

tip #1: before selling a ship, strip it down by selling all modules. you get paid back 100 % of the modules purchase price but loose 10 % of the value of the ship when selling it. so the lower the overall value of the ship is when selling it, the lower your credit loss will be. tip #2: fly backwards while shooting forward with the Python! tip #3:give four power pips to SYS to make your shield the strongest!

So Elite makes it so larger ships handle worse because of their mass. The only medium ships that handle like small ship are the fer-de-lance and the chieftain in my experience.

Gather the following materials: 18 Datamined Wake Exceptions, 26 Tellurium, 26 Electrochemical Arrays and 28 Chemical Processors; then head to a Human Technology Broker. Trade all that in for the drive. You get a MASSIVE increase in jump range. It is only available in Class 5, and you have to turn in those mats every time you want to buy one, but man is it worth it.

The Python is one of the best ships in the game but isn't really a fighter - try something like a Chieftain...

I love your comments about its size - only recently went over to Odyssey and wow, my Corvette is huge! The Python is a great ship for trading (get yourself some proper money) and generally travelling around - not a great explorer (Asp X or Diamondback are great for this) - a bigger all-rounder than the Cobra.

When you start going to buy very expensive things it can be worth taking the extra time to buy ships and equipment from stations controlled by the faction Li-Yong-Rui, stuff sold by them are 15% cheaper and that also affects your rebuy cost. You can also sell equipment for the same cost you had bought it so don't be afraid to experiment. Another thing is the grade of the equipment has different stats and higher is not always better, D grade gear weighs the least so to get maximum jump range you often want to use D grade stuff for anything not super critical such as life support and sensors

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Python , the workhorse that does every thing . largest cargo capacity of any medium ship , most internals . Impresive fire power . and huge amounts of armour . 4 The anaconda . Forget the T10 , The corvette , the imperial cutter. The anaconda is the monster you want. its build as a armoured focused ship , it has the largest jumprange when engineerd 83 -84 ly when completely engineerd, most internals 13 . one of the coldest runners in game you can get the heat down to 11 to 12 % making it ice over. Also the only ship with realistic damage models. its hards points are placed all around the ship up down front rear bottom Its the ship of choice .

Okay okay. The python is an okay ship if you like the best ship in the game. Kind of ships 🤪 But pound for pound is just a big asp explorer.. never fly without a rebuy ✅🪐
