That's.... quite a rage, couldn't you have rage given it a stern talking too?
To be fair, I'd not really liked it since the moment I got it. I might try it again but for now my goal is just to finish off the Cheiftan and get Elite in combat. westtra said:
Anyone on xbox doing the bounty hunting CG in narri fancy winging up?
I am focusing on my combat rank just now to get my third elite.
Yup and yup. Except I’ve accidentally committed a murder in that system and I’m a bit wanted. I am focusing on my combat rank just now to get my third elite.
If I can clear it, I’ll drop by for more violence.
Yep if you look on the bit that shows you your ship shield strength, profit etc. There is a bit with noteriety. That needs to be at zero before you goto an interstellar factor in a low security or anarchy system to pay off the bounty.
The noteriety only drops whilst in game, so you can sit in a starport doing nothing or fly about doing stuff.
Or possibly change ship as I think the bounty sticks with the ship. Same as fines etc.

So been playing more in open recently but mainly winging for bounty hunting so minimal issues with pvp.
Last night a cutter decided to attack(chose there time well as was in process of fighting a wing of npc ans shields took a bit of a hammer) and me and my wing mate couldn’t drop there shields. Got close before he boosted away then came back with shields back at 100% where we fought again till my shields dropped and I took off for repair and reload.
When I got back to the haz res he had winged up so never went back for more fighting.
Whats the best weapon set up on a corvette to strip shields on an engineered player vessel?
Currently have it set for pve with
2 huge g5 efficient beams (thermal vent) and this stips NPC shields quickly.
Then multi cannons for the hull if the beams are not quickly effective.

Apparently it's torpedoes with reverberating cascade experimental effect, but you'll probably be wasting your time getting them, engineering them and then never having them fitted when you actually need them. They are slow when fired and easily avoided at anything but point blank range.
You have to remember your effective ranges too.
You have efficient beams, but anything more then 600m and youre doing exponentially less damage.
600m is 75% and 1000m is something like 12% damage.
Which is why I use the Long range mod on my beams on my vette.
As for PVP, beams aren't that great due to resistances on engineering. (I have 60% thermal for example), you really want Plasma accelerators as they do absolute damage

Yeah, but PvP needs to be able to fly FA off and use fixed weapons. Its a completely different ball game when you are playing against players rather than NPCs.
Chaff / Target lock breaker / cold ships mean gimbal/turrets aren't that useful.
Generally you have one loadout for PvP and a completely different load out for PvE. PvP is burst encounter, PvE is longevity.

Been trying fa off/on to get better turning against NPC’s but not ideal with a controller.
Need to try get better with it and fixed then if I want to do a bit more pvp as as frustrating as it was not getting thw shields down it was quite fun.
And the times where the match Has been fairer its been a good challenge.

Silly me got blinded by my first eight figure VIP tourist payout last night, quickly glanced at the destinations and figured it'd take me 20min to knock off before bed.
Didn't figure on being dragged 200LY in three separate directions from the starting point.
Over an hour later I banked 14MCr. Buying an Anaconda is getting dangerously within reach...

Go to Parutis or Upsilion Aquarii, pick up VIPs to Medb or LTT 9360 respectively.Didn't figure on being dragged 200LY in three separate directions from the starting point.

Jump to system and enter supercruise.
Go do something else for 35mins.
Land at station.
Profit (40-80m per run)...

I try to make the best of whatevers around me, I originally went to Maia to jump on the Meta alloys bandwagon but the Danielle's Progress economy went haywire so I started running passengers (after a seriously unprofitable session trying massacre missions)Jump to system and enter supercruise.

I'll try one of these ludicrously long SC missions at some point. Haven't got the mug yet.
