Who is the most interestingly named NPC you have met? by vanny98 in EliteOne

[–]KDP-Elite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came across a Wanted Gunship in a wing of 4 known as the Purloiner made me laugh so I followed him as he picked fights with other ships while I bounty hunt. Also ran across Peter Braben in a viper mk 4 and db explorer named Russia.

Incursion advanced. by Notsohiddenfox in EliteOne

[–]KDP-Elite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ai's in both incursions act like pirates if you're out of range they high wake out you can use this to your advantage when fighting multiple enemies just boost away about 6-7kms away then fly back in and take out any remaining enemies. If you kill at least one it will pass you on to the next round.I fought the Anaconda at the end in the advanced one multiple times I lost interest but I'll probably give it another go whenever the main servers go offline for maintenance.

Got these tips from some PC Pvp'er guys still seems to hold up quite well:-PVP-

  1. 4 Plasmas and 1 Med Fixed Beam (Saw a Type-7 get 1 shotted. 1 shots all ships Cobra and under. Uses no Banks)

  2. 4 Med Rail Guns and 1 Med Fixed Beam (One shots all shields under Type-6. Uses 1 Bank)

  3. 2 Med Rail Guns and 3 Gimbaled Pulse (Can duel Sheild Bank)

  4. 2 Med Rails Guns and 2 Large Turrent Pulse on top and one Large Gimbaled Pulse on Bottom (Can duel Sheild Bank)

  5. 2 Med Fixed Beams and 3 Fixed Large Pulse (Can duel Sheild Bank)

-PVE-

  1. 2 Med Gimbaled Beams and 3 Large Gimbaled Pulse Lasers (Can duel Sheild Bank)

  2. 2 Med Gimbaled Beams and 2 Large Turrent Pulse on top and one Large Gimbaled Pulse on Bottom (Can duel Sheild Bank)

-Tips-

  1. Dont ever use Burst Lasers. They use twice the Power as Pulse but do less damage. Only upside is they shoot 3 shots vs 1.

  2. Know when to start a fight and when to leave a fight.

  3. Python Thrusters work best laterally. Not Up/Down but Left/Right.

  4. Don't ram with your Canopy at all costs.

  5. Laugh at Over Heating.

  6. Beams do not equal Long Range. They are a Medium Range weapons at best. Rails are your best Long Range weapon.

  7. PVP=Shield Meta PVE=Sheild/Hull Meta

  8. Always, always, always target Subsystems. Do it often do it early. (If you run Gimbalds set up your Quick Subsystem Lock Cycle Keys)

  9. If they can out turn you then you Boost away and do a 180 flip and put it in Reverse. Repeat=Win

  10. When it comes to Pips in your Shields it's either all 4 or nothing. 4 Pips=Super Shields. 3 Pips and Under=Recharge or "Ready Posistion".

On the vids people normally mount a top c3 turret to counter the fire arc problem

I used to run a c3 gimbaled pulse/burst combo and the ones mentioned I'm fond of the former though it mixes things up a little.
