All in New Atlatis 3:01 Disrupter 3320 Neutron Turret 4:15 Dragon 261 SX Laser 4:47 MKE-9A Auto Gauss Gun Gonna try it out later on. I already use the 3320 Neutron turret, and combined it with the neutron beam. So I'll play sniper at a distance, and when they get closed the turret will finished them off. But definetly will try the Laser and Gauss Gun build later on.

I was thinking the missiles were really good but you have changed my mind. Time for a rebuild. Thanks for being among the stars. Stay safe.

[@Maverick7613]

Carrying 2 of the giant C class (6 power) missile racks and leaving them just minimally powered is not a bad choice for those times when you're in stupidly close to a ship and need a quick finish on them - people make the mistake in thinking missiles HAVE to lock to fire (or that them being locked ensures a hit) - if you fire them and they contact the enemy ship, lock or not, they'll go boom. And the enemy ship will then go boom. Plus, switching to using the missiles as a quick kill shot gives your primary weapons (particles) an extra second or two to recharge as needed. Missiles aren't an "always have" option... but if you've got the mass available to mount them, they're not a bad option for the quick coup de grace type attack.

[@Astristul]

I'm using the Obliteration normal PAR for front, the Obliteration turret PAR for back and sides and the Missiles. All top shelf pieces and I never had any issues in dogfights!

[@TheMaximusKane]

I am over level 165 and I have 3 weapons with only only one that auto. The other two are manuel, and I test my weapons not only at Serpentis but Krix. I can rip the entire Crimson Fleet, and my shields have never fallen below 30 before recharging. My weapons are 1. The Vanguard Obiterator auto projector (must be fired manually) 2. PB 300 Alpha Beam (if you want to shoot manually), or you can pick the Auto Alpha Turrett if you don't want to shoot yourself. 3. The Obliterator 250MeV Alpha Turrett. There are also two options for these turrets for manual or auto fire. For this last one, you must be over level 61. All three weapons fire from a range of 3300. That is what you want, weapons that have a good range that you can not only continue firing but where you can target only certain parts of the ships. Rockets are no good. Also, don't forget to check the max power for each weapon. The Vanguard weapons Max Power is 2, which means you can equip 6 of these to your ship. Max power of 3 allows you to equip 4 additional weapons, and the max power of 4 allows you to attach 3 of those weapons. So, my current ship has 13 weapons, 5 engines, an Assurance 1800 shield, a hull at 1530, 90 mobility, and a cargo of 69K. If you use 3bSAL-6330 engines and 2 SAE-5660 engines, your ship can mive even faster. SF40 Sheared reactor and the apollow GV300 Grave drive (both the most powerful same as the shield which is the most powerful), you can melt an entire full squadron of Crimson Fleet ships even in you are surrounded. Serpentis is a great system to level up in, but if you want a little extra, go to Venus, sleep the 6 hrs, and attack the Crimson Fleet again. All these ships are between levels 65 and 90, and I am on the hardest level setting in the game. This video is great if you are not at the higher levels like I am. However, as you level up, the ship I built melts anything in its way, including spacers, Va'runn, Starborn, and the most powerful enemy ship in the game, the "Ecliptic Battleship Camulus". One last thing, don't forget to put companions on your ship that offer something to it. If someone has a shield boost of 3, you only have one 1 boost. Adding someone else with a shield boost equal or lower does not add to your boost. If you build the ship right, you can have a class C reactor at 46, and if you check your character, you will see your longest grave jump. My longest jump is 47 LY's

[@XoRandomGuyoX]

Having one of the longer range particle beam turrets is always a nice option: highlights the nearest enemy for you, can hit far enough to catch ships exiting grav jump thereby preventing them from ever raising their shields. If you enjoy getting into the fray pairing that with autocannons can help you shred enemies that get close. But there's always the option of overloading a missile system like the Hunter Mag or Infiltrator and leaving 1 pip of power in it for extended burst damage.

The best way to build a good looking ship imo is to build your barebone ship first with habs and nessecary modules (because some parts are only available in specific vendor), then you go to ship builder in your outpost to have access to all the structures available. You can aim for a rocket with legs look or go wide in upper level for a jet fighter-like look. Some structures can make faux wings or attach the engines at the back of said wings. Hope this helps.

But on Very Hard difficulty. lmao. 2740 Mass 1523 Hull 4685 Cargo 130 Top Speed 100 Mobility 30LY Range and 10 Crew. Cost me just over 800k to design. Edit: I had recently decided to go through the unity for my 12th time, and finished revising my ship again. Its even better than it was, still 100 Mobility same top speed(actually, it goes like 180 with max output, and just over 600 with boost!), slightly more mass, and 11 crew now. But the damage output has been just about doubled. 🤣 Oh yeah, and i have 14 guns total, now. And just in case anyone wondering, no mods or creations, whatsoever.

[@MrGrimsmith]

The pulse lasers do serious work but they run out of charge *really* fast. Fantastic call on the ballistics, they shred but I'm currently only using 2 of them. Particle turrets I was already using but with different weapons, I need to try out the disruptors but have found the PBO-300 auto turrets to be great. Slightly higher damage for slightly shorter range (3k vs 3.5k, 28.59 vs 24.69) but I mount them 2 fore and 2 aft facing so even when I'm focused on a different target the guy behinds me gets some too :) Nice work though, definitely appreciate it 👍

[@patrickfewell3257]

I prefer vanguard object obliterater with helion beam and auto alpha turret. Problem with your build is it is close quarters. One group of four auto turrets keeps your rear and top safe. 6 times object obliterator and four times Helton beam used together erase any ship no matter how big well before it can enter the range of short range weapons you use. Opposing ship will be dust long before it gets to 1000 distance.

[@PWCDN]

vanguard obliterator autoprojector and vanguard hellfire autocannon are the most op. Might seem counter-intuitive to have a class A weapon on a class B ship, but I'm shredding through ships faster than any weapon combination I've ever had. I can skip a third weapon but adding turrets facing the sides/back or missiles and leave it at 1 power is better than nothing. 6.65 and 7.5 fire rate, quick recharge and able to equip 6 of each is insane. I even use the autocannon for added damage against shields, since they recharge and fire so fast.

[@mikehiner9977]

The vanguard obliterator does more damage to shields per power used than any laser. It is simple math. ROF*shield damage/power requirement. At 38.37. It does the most shield damage in the game except the 251p pulse laser at 38.48. The difference is the obliterator does shield and hull damage.

[@bobbutson]

Very good info, thank you!

[@willthedingo]

Early game, I really did appreciate the Vanguard 11+11 shield and hull canons because they only used 2 power, so it was easy to have four to six of them running efficiently. But there gets to be a point you really need to upgrade.

[@maotseovich1347]

I put together a spreadsheet and calculated the DPS per unit power of each of the weapons in Starfield with the formula: > ( ( Hull Damage + Shield Damage ) * Rate of Fire ) / Power The best weapons came out as: Atlatl 280C Missile Launcher 132.000 DPS/Pwr CE-59 Missile Launcher 102.000 DPS/Pwr Vanguard Hellfire Autocannon 86.25 DPS/Pwr PBO-175 Auto Helion Beam 76.000 DPS/Pwr Atlatl 270C Missile Launcher 74.500 DPS/Pwr Vanguard Obliterator Autoprojector 73.150 DPS/Pwr The Vanguard Hellfire Autocannon is absurdly high DPS for a weapon that gets most of it's DPS from hull damage, and absurdly quick at shredding hulls. The Disruptor 3320 Neutron Turret came out at 48.333, the Dragon 261P SX Pulse Laser at 34.667, and the MKE-9A Auto Gauss Gun at 48. My personal optimal build is 6x Vanguard Hellfire Autocannon and 4x PBO-175 Auto Helion Beam, with 4x Nullifier 1750 Suppressor. Not factoring in range, the best Particle weapon is the PBO-175 Auto Helion Beam, the best ballistic weapon is the Vanguard Hellfire Autocannon, and the best non-Vanguard is the Jishaku AlNiCo RF Rapid Railgun, and the best laser weapon is the Reza 300 PHz SX Pulse Laser Turret. The best missile weapon is the Atlatl 280C Missile Launcher, and the best EW weapon is the Nullifier 1750 Suppressor. If you just need to kill one tough ship and don't mind the drawbacks of missiles and can spare the power, the best build might be 3x Atlatl 280C Missile Launcher, 4x CE-59 Missile Launcher, and 6x Vanguard Hellfire Autocannon or 4x PBO-175 Auto Helion Beam.

[@pyromethious]

I don't remember which they were, but for a while I had (Ballistics?) Turrets that had a nasty habit of clearing out the fight before I got a chance to board something (ship farming). I also had missiles and some other ballistic auto weapon and they would make it seem like shields weren't a thing. Mind you, I was probably L30-50 and I've NOT completed the major questlines, so the weapons were likely available everywhere and I just chose the ones that I could have 3-4 of.

[@sheogoro]

if you want damage go with the vanguard questline ship parts you get after the second mission. they are, in my opinion, much better options. 2 power per weapon system means you can slap 6 on and the dps is substantially higher.

[@JoeBob79569]

Yea, the best weapon I could find was the Vanguard Obliterator (but my search wasn't very extensive). Basically to calculate the dps you take the damage, multiply it by the fire rate, and then multiply it by how many of them you can add to the ship (12 divided by the max power of the weapon). So for the obliterator it was like 11*6.65*6 = ~440 dps. But the 3320 neutron turret mentioned here only gives you 29*2.5*4 =~290 dps.

[@robertronpenetron-t7r]

allow me to defer: the strongest manual weapons are ironically the chespest particle weapons, with the cheapest particle weapons, with the right build, you can one shot any enemy shield since they focus on damage output, yes, they have a fire rate of 1.5 - 4, but the damage output and the lack of weapon cooldown make these weapons totally meta since with a high fire rate weapon, you have to wait for cooldown timer of 5 - 10 secs after they overheat while with semi automatic ship weapons the cooldown after every shot is from 0.5 - 1 second, now, comparing them with the weapons used in the video: their hit range is 3000 - 3500 meters, and their damage per component is above 50 making them overally the natural best option... sorry bro... but this time you were wrong... though i cant deny that your build is preatty fun to play!

Vanguard hellfire auto cannon and the Obliterator 250MeV Auto Alpha Beam are really all you need. You can find the auto cannon anywhere after completing the UC quest grunt work and the alpha beams you unlock at a certain level with piloting 4 I believe. This guide while being good for mid to low level have nothing on this setup.

[@anoniemuss824]

Top 3 Highest DPS Ship Weapons: Hull: Vanguard Hellfire Autocannon (810 DPS, 6 Guns, LVL 1, Rank B, Ballistic) Hull+Shield: PBO-175 Auto Helion Beam (456 DPS, 4 Guns, LVL 48, Rank B, Particle, Starship Design Rank 4) Turret: Obliterator 250MeV Alpha Turret (387 DPS, 3 Guns, LVL 60, Rank C, Particle, Starship Design Rank 4) Hull+Shield Alternative: Vanguard Obliterator Autoprojector (439 DPS, 6 Guns, LVL 1, Rank A, Particle) Turret Alternative: Disruptor 3340A Auto Alpha Turret (304 DPS, 4 Guns, LVL 24, Rank C, Particle) These alternatives don't require Starship Design and can be purchased at lower levels. Disclaimer: I'm not saying these are the best weapons, just that they have the highest dps by sheer numbers and math. Concerning Lasers: I see no reason to ever use laser weapons since particle weapons out dps them for shield damage while also doing equal hull damage. The highest dps non-turret laser is the Dragon 251P UV Pulse Laser with 440 dps against shields only, while the Vanguard Obliterator has 439 dps against both hull and shields, and the PBO-175 has 456 dps against both. Recommendation: Only put 1 or 2 power (unless you more power to spare) into the Hellfire and split the rest between the others, since you'll only be firing it after knocking out shields. If you can't destroy the ship before running out of charge, or it isn't recharging fast enough between ships, then you may want to add more power for faster recharge. It does have short range, but it's great for shredding systems in targeting mode, which is short range anyways. Always leave at least 1 power in all your weapons so they don't lose their charge and cease to function. They'll still do full dps with only 1 power, since power only affects their recharge speed. This is only true for "auto" weapons since they have a magazine that can be fired freely. The non-auto weapons have slower fire rate and need to recharge between shots, so they need full power to get the most dps of which they are capable. Clarification and some repeated info: Since there has been confusion about this, "auto" is not the same as "turret". Turrets always have turret in the name. Auto weapons are manually fired and have high rate of fire and lower per-shot damage just like non-ship automatic weapons. Auto weapons also have a "magazine" that recharges. Non-auto weapons are slower and recharge between shots, but have higher per-shot damage. The benefit of non-auto weapons is that you can fire them forever without stopping to wait for a recharge, but they require full power for max dps, whereas auto weapons have full dps with only 1 power. Turrets fire on their own and can't be controlled other than how much power you give them. Flying Tip: The moment you see the missile warning, tap your booster and then cancel it with your thrusters. The missile will immediately lose track of you even with just a split second of boost, and even without Engine Systems rank 4.

[@toddabbott781]

The UC Vanguard guns are the best. The Vanguard Obliterator Autoprojector is really nasty for low level characters. They only have a power of 2 so you can fit 6. That is 70 damage to hull and shields and with a range of 3000 and a fire rate of 6.5 they shred stuff. For class C there is the Vanguard Ares Particle Cannon. Again 2 power rating so you can take 6 and the range of 3000 and fire rate of 4 lets them shred ships fast as 6 does 113 damage. The Vanguard shields are pretty good too. So early game get the Obliterator and put them on the Razorleaf and when you can do class C get the Ares and put it on the Star Eagle (with a class C reactor added). I am currently running Starship Design rank 3. I am VERY impressed at what the Razorleaf can do when Upgraded. Really Class B and C are not that much better than class A. You mostly get larger ships with more hull points that can haul much more cargo, but that is about it. For speed, range, maneuverability, damage output... they are just not that much different. It will be interesting to see what Rank 4 will give me with Starship Design for both these ships.

[@joshuakern1274]

Interesting idea, I just can't get past the short range on the lasers, by the time anything is in range for ballistic weapons my turrets have already shredded their shields. I run particle turrets, particle guns, and missiles just for fun. I JUST captured one of those ships yesterday, kinda sucked for me, the day before I dropped almost 500k on customizing a narwal because it came with a better reactor than I could buy, a day later I capture this ship for free and it's reactor is even better and it comes with two engines that are higher level than I can buy at lvl 32 🤦‍♂

Where did you get the cockpit from? Can't find it anywhere

[@neundreisieben]

you also need the high tier turret perk to use them. Otherwise they won't shoot. Turrets always want a flat mount, or they can bug often. Also if you are using different type of weapons, like ur laser-ballistic combo, it mostly works, If you are shooting them each, not together. Here you wanna switch energy in between ur attacks. I think the most just don't want to. You also can use 6 vanguards obs and shred them from distance. As a Level 30 i have the same firepower with these and for the last one, i use the best EM weapons, to board the ship. So i have full power in shields, full power on weapons and 3/4 in engines, without any perk, except to fly class c ships. Especially the perk giving you more energy from your engine is so worth it in lower tiers, because reactors is what capping u.

[@rickyjanzen6684]

They should have power profiles you set up out of combat (in the menu?) and cycle those instead of the manual pips each time. The system of individual moving pips (even long press for full system power up/down) is too cumbersome when multiple ships are firing at you.

you don't need 3 different weapons. 3 hvy particle beams, 3 light particle beams. use the 3 hvy beams to clear lower level enemies then switch over to 3 light particle beams once that last, highest level ship is out of shields. target engines, board the disabled ship, kill crew, sell the take over :D

[@NM-tl6pe]

Hopefully, when they release new content, they'll add higher level content and questlines.

The Vanguard wicked name

[@senuaquest]

after do main quest a few times I restarted fresh and am starting to learn how to build ships I am pretty ,low level around 25 so I am, hoping to get some of these on it , the building this is pretty harsh trying to align things plus no instructions on anything so tricky I have tried( hours lost) a few days back many errors then again yesterday the only errors was one of the modules was to much for my reactor( I had the most powerful reactor I could find for my level) and I couldnt figure out which module so I scrapped that after a few hours lol today I will try again

[@nuclear_panda86]

Can the auto turrets be deactivated for when you're on your pirate grind?

[@Dmart42]

Yess just power down the turrets and use only Manuel weapons

[@RangerJ602]

280C missiles are one hitter quitters. Especially with the perk they will one tap everything.

[@LordGadwin]

Get crew to reduce the cool down on weapons. Can find a rank 3 shields crew member at Akila bar.

[@UncleManuel]

No gunship with turrets only? You were like "Fine! I'll do it myself!" 😂😁🤟 Yeah yeah, those levels are just a dream right now - I'm still running around like a headless chicken at level 24... 😜

[@blackfish95]

What i'm not clear on, is power management. If you don't have the weapon at full power, it does less damage and recharges slower, correct? You've got so many weapons on your ship that i see you're not powering them fully. Are they still as OP as you're saying at 50-60% power each?

[@jongael524]

I believe that power level only effects recharge time. Anyone able to confirm or deny?

[@JaketheflyingSnake]

Depends on the weapon. There are "normal" weapons which fire rate depends on the Power you put in them. For example the PB-30 Electron Beam. The there are weapons that have a "storage" which recharging speed depends on the Power you put into them. Those have "rapid" or "Auto" in their name, for example PB-30 Auto Electron Beam. All Missile weapons have a storage. Most weapons with storage cost was more than their "normal" Version.

[@PlzPassDaBazooka]

For the dragonfire is there a way to add a 3rd weapon in that empty slot. It eats ships but I want to board said ship and it just keeps blasting like it’s always sunny in Philadelphia.

[@christianglassel9950]

Interesting counterpoint. For my part, I have a ship exclusively designed for dogfighting as I can't get a true gunship to have the maneuverability I want. Of course, that could be due to the fact that I'm only level 34.

[@MYPSYAI]

delete your cargo

[@Raz0rking]

@@MYPSYAI It is a bit of a balancing act to have enough-ish cargo space and still being at 100 mobility.

[@christianglassel9950]

@@MYPSYAI I could, but then it's not a true all-purpose gunship. I've definitely limited my cargo space, but it's not practical to delete it entirely. My dogfighter has minimal cargo space and flies like a dream.

[@MYPSYAI]

Use an outpost to drop stuff off at. It's really easy, then leave your collection at the house. You can also store stuff on every crew member - I use Vasco for resources, barret gets armors, and Sam keeps my guns clean. That's like 500 cargo right there.

[@MYPSYAI]

There's no reason to have more cargo than the cockpit gives. The only thing to do with huge piles of resources is base building. For modding your gear or making combat enhancers you really only need 100-200 cargo. If you load your game and look at your ships cargo I bet you got a billion food your never gonna eat, books you've already read, prolly got like 1000 weight in misc from changing ships. Just sell it all, delete your cargo, and fight like a god.

[@TomP-148]

I feel like there should be a big disclaimer for this video! If you're at a low level this is not for you. You won't be able to buy the parts let alone survive.

[@johnmckown1267]

I took notes. I'm not high enough level.

[@LuvMachine77]

Don't sleep on EMP weapons. They're good at getting around shields.

[@azboakes3900]

Best thing I've found is going into a high level system and just finding spacers and deleting them 😂

[@sethmurdoch5819]

Krix is a decent testing grounds I've found.

[@NehimaSix66]

Great video 🙂 Not had much experiencing mixing up my weapons yet, how do you know how many of each you can equip and still have functioning?

[@Schlepperman]

Is the SUNSHOT your ship build or is it one we can find and modify in the game

[@elroyhavoc]

What difficulty should I set it at for the serpentis farm?

[@svranca]

HI! thanks for your video. it was great. I have a question for you as I am thinking of changing my weapons combo and would like your opinion of what is the absolute best combo if credits and levels are not an issue: I currently have the following 1. Atlatl 280C Missile Launcher, 2.MKE-9A Auto Gauss Gun and 3. Obliterator 250 MeV Alpha Turret, Is this a good combo? Obviously for me hull and crew are important. What do you suggest?

[@reecemedway9811]

Do you level up starship design or starship engineer to get these weapons? Sorry if this seems a stupid question.

[@paulclay4229]

Where do you get these guns? None of them are in my inventory

[@phuckerpower]

What kind of reactor you use for those weapons? Because apparently it takes a lot

[@idontplaygames7099]

I found serpentis on accident during a escort mission.. died so many times lol

[@Dmart42]

Man a lot of people sleep on the rapid gauss turrets

[@Johnnyvo30]

True vanguard need a game that is worthy of his skill.

[@JayDay32]

Do you have a load out for only A level ships?

[@Deliurus]

Have you tried this design on the legendary battleships of the three enemy factions, well I have only seen three so far. Think it kicks off the spacer battleship and then the others spawn.

[@truegamer2819]

i have a question can you doc and steal a star born ship during a dog fight?

[@billjanis5]

One thing these videos forget to mention, which is unfortunate, is that these weapons are not available at all levels. It would be awesome if someone made these videos and also said at what level the specific weapons they suggest are available. That would be so helpful. Without that, these are not very useful. Unless you’re already at a super high level. I’m at 40 now.

[@raymondamoroso2049]

Why ship building doesn't have a test flight/ battle simulator is CRAZY
