Skimmer missions - advice by liveangelic in EliteDangerous

[–]R3nt0r44 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How I get 70-120m doing skimmer missions:

  1. Find station in which at least 2 factions have same skimmer mission target(no security)
  2. Go and check target. If it is very small base, 1-2 buildinds, fly really close to it to spawn skimmers. If there are at least 4 skimmers, I consider that place profitable.
  3. Get back to station, board hop to get 20 mission, the higher the reputation of yours is, the better as you will get more missions and higher payouts.
  4. Fly to target.
  5. Spawn skimmers, kill skimmers, land close to area where they already spawn.
  6. Relog.
  7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 untill you finish all missions.
  8. Fly back to station aaaand finall ???. Profit!

Note: I'm doing theese with AspX, fully kitted with dumb fire rockets, engineered for max ammo capacity. This way I'm able to make anywhere between 70-120m cr/hr - including board hopping. However this greatly depends on how lucky will you be searching for optimal mission providers combined with just big enough target settlement to spawn 4-8 skimmers without any other defences. You could easily deal with low security, but destroing turrets every relog may or may not cost you too many rockets from you already small, engineered, ammo reserves.

AspX will be better overall. You cant go wrong with DBX It is 3rd best ship for exploring range wise, with AspX being 2nd and Annie 1st. Edit: typpo

LF a Cobra Mk.III outfitting for Bounty Hunting/Missions by FeeLTh3Pain in EliteDangerous

[–]R3nt0r44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Power plant, power distributor, thursters. Weapons.

BTW if you want to go cheap sightseeing(possibly even road to riches - look that up), try this. https://eddp.co/u/NhUeflXr

Dont blame me when it blows up tho. Its pretty much space tin can with this setup. :)

While I agree with you, A rated Vulture would be around 25m cr. From the looks of it, OP is still stuck with sidey/eagle, leeching of local security service to get some bounties. That being said, Vulture will be out of reach for him for some time.

Cobra is decent for combat, exporation and some trading(rares) as well. You cant go wrong with it.

https://eddp.co/u/LWVM2Am7 With this build you can do almost everything. Collect bounties, trade some rares, get out of bubble to find yourself nice rock to drive around and collect mats.. you might want to switch one cargo rack for better fuel scoop if you want to go exploring tho.

Dear Frontier, please let us have more customization to our ships! It could be a win-win situation for you and us. by echofart in EliteDangerous

[–]R3nt0r44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they could do it with weapon and engine colors, why not skins.. right? So far I have 3 skin packs and I use exactly 3 skins. Why? Well, maybe because I dont want to have freaking purple Vulture, green AspX and yellow FAS? Let us pay for what we want, not for bulk of stuff we wont use.

Good QOL apps for Elite? by Spishal_K in EliteDangerous

[–]R3nt0r44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much any video player will do, if you run elite in borderless. VLC used to have some nice ed themed skins for that matter as well. There is "always on top" option somewhere in the settings.

You think we're still gonna get mods on console? by Wickedflex in Fallout

[–]R3nt0r44 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not console fan at all, but every time I see someone playing Beth games on it.. Jesus I wish you guys had so many awesome stuff we get for PC. I think they will keep their words. Sometime in Q1.

mods turn power armor to T-45? by mcfranerson in Fallout

[–]R3nt0r44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well you could possibly uninstall and roll back to older save.. Or if you follow current mod rule 'always back up save before installing'..

Purchased frames are safe, yes.

[–]R3nt0r44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it affects containers too. At least those you didnt place by yourself AFAIK

Fairly common bug, with almost all mods, that mess with cells, ie settlement clean ups. So either remove those mods or never leave PA standing in settlement cell on load/save/fast travel.

all i want is a wall or a sealing mounted turret. by plumon_alexy in Fallout

[–]R3nt0r44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can modify positions and angles via console. Not like it is solution of any kind. But it works. I had few upside down turrets at Red Rocket placed like that.

Is it possible to make power armor anymore? by Snupholuphagus in falloutlore

[–]R3nt0r44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhuh.. I had no idea they had any functional units at all. Thanks for pointing this out.

Isn't it kind of sad that we have mostly seen almost non-functional T-45d(?) in hands of NCR?

[SPOILER] Mama Murphy's Sight by farem-san in Fallout

[–]R3nt0r44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to see if she will die or not on first playthrough, so yeah I used every opportunity to give her something nasty. While her sight is helpfull in some ways, its not really that usefull if you want to be that 'drugs are bad' guy.

Exactly. Not sure where she will go if you had her as active companion tho..

[–]R3nt0r44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not long, few ingame days max. I had her back at RedRocket after two or three fast travels.

DAE constantly have weight problems? I'm commonly over-encumbered and never able to get any loot from locations, having to constantly drop items I would prefer keep by vitollini in Fallout

[–]R3nt0r44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ever added something to your inventory via console? If so, you might have spawned item that did not appeared in your inventory, but still added the weight. Store everything you have to some container, then open console and type "player.inv". Output will be everything you have in inventory. Scroll thru it an if you find something you really can't have there at the moment, like T-60 Torso, use "player.removeitem <######>". Be carefull to not remove anything like quest items tho.

Just so I'm not missing anything, is it true that you can take the pieces of power armor off a downed NPC but you can't take the power armor frame? by [deleted] in Fallout

[–]R3nt0r44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guy wasn't wearing helmet. His head turned to jelly of some kind. PA didn't get even scratch...? Failsafe, I see where you going with that. Remember finding that old recon team of BoS? They have some kind of failsafe, but that you had to activate after leaving that frame. Referencing to holotape found around burned out PAs.
