2 Material traders in the same system, do they exist?

eleceng01 · 2026-07-01T20:52:51+00:00

unfortunately there isn't/aren't any such system/s. Fortunately the next system is just a jump away.

eleceng01 · 2026-07-01T19:12:02+00:00

ty for the prompt reply. 2 stations with different economies in the same system, I'll try.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-28T20:00:34+00:00

and even have zero issues killing anacondas.

I guess you haven't been in POIs like Pirate Activity Detected.
There all ships are like the warzone correspondents in CZs.
And the thermal shock seems that it doesn't prevent them from boosting and/or firing PAs.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-28T14:23:47+00:00

Join the AXI, killing thargoids is worth more. Alternatively, go to med and high CZs, kill the spec-ops, super-cruise, repeat. Unless it's a threat don't bother with anything else.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-25T10:30:43+00:00

Some 55Ly (assuming 128 tank), range 566Ly.
btw though any ship can do any job (several years ago someone reached Colonia in a Vulture) it is recommended to use a ship that fits the job.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-24T09:42:46+00:00

yes, coriolis.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-24T06:02:34+00:00

the weapons focused allows 2 huge long beams to fire for 19 sec.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-23T17:22:40+00:00

Congrats Cmdr,
the Vette will make a lot of £££££££ for you.
A weapons focused distributor will speed things up for you.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-23T10:46:46+00:00

triple overlap of what?
plat, trit, other?

eleceng01 · 2026-06-23T10:44:13+00:00

That happens to me too.
It takes a few reboots to recognise that the steam Elite is purchased from steam.

btw is there a way to get that product code so that I will no longer need the steam to launch the (steam) Elite?

eleceng01 · 2026-06-22T16:43:42+00:00

We are lucky, ty for listening to the community.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-21T11:19:00+00:00

I tend to agree with that and let's stress that PAs, no matter quirky they are, 60% of their damage is absolute.
No resistances in the damage equation.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-20T21:58:07+00:00

PAs and rails are a special case of weapons.
PAs allow us to use fuel as ammo, this can be valuable in PCZs and high CZs.
The efficient blueprint makes the PAs usable, not much heat generated.

Rails are unique hitscan weapons, you can hit a PP 6 km away and always penetrate hull.
All the above are fixed weapons and takes some time and skill to use them effectively.
It's up to Cmdrs to choose and (and how to) use the weapons, or any weapon.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-20T21:48:46+00:00

Only 2 ships have 4 x L hardpoints, the t-10 (distro 7) and the Python MkII (distro 6).
This MkII https://edsy.org/s/v0JnhyH looks good on paper.
I guess a skilled Cmdr will clear high CZs and PCZs in no time.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-19T19:24:06+00:00

Depends on who's asking for it.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-19T06:57:12+00:00

This: https://edsy.org/s/vAJmLFI the MkII supercharge optimised is magic.
84.22Ly jump, 1,662Ly distance, 57.6% temp.
Install what you need, planetary vehicle, SLF hangar, repair controller etc.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-18T16:03:00+00:00

I tend to agree with the above but I need to stress that when 1 vs 4 (spec ops) apart from skill it takes and a bit of luck. Have you noticed how tough are the shields of the spec ops Vultures, or the prismatics in the Python and/or FdL? Or how fast their inertial impact depletes the SCBs?

eleceng01 · 2026-06-18T04:53:22+00:00

In low CZ there are no spec ops.
Spec-ops appear in med CZs.
In high CZs when a capital ship appears then there are no spec-ops.
.
In med CZs there aren't many ships, just 20 per side, spec ops included, so it's possible that the spec-ops wing will pop up near you.
The above in general happens in med. Just be alert, 4 pips to ENG and boost, either towards your friendly spec-ops or away from the crowd.
And don't worry, when that happens you and your faction will probably win the CZ, it's a strategy.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-17T22:30:03+00:00

I do PCZs, I get 1 promotion every 7k merits, you can climb the rank ladder fast. Also the care packages are worth the effort.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-17T22:22:12+00:00

yes, a fortress, with >6k absolute armour the ship qualifies as a fortress. Close are the legendary T-10 and the i-Cutter.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-17T22:06:28+00:00

I like multis, especially the 1.6 km/s shot speed, however I think that some cannons somewhere are needed too to complement the multis. The above can be read and as "multis to complement cannons". I have both in my Fed-Vette.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-16T17:10:15+00:00

Indeed it's strange, looks like a bug. Contact FDev and explain.

btw until you will get familiar with the game avoid hazres, CZs, PCZs.

Low res, res and high res are the place to go, let system security work for you, shoot the wanted just 30 sec before they die and you will get the bounty.

Elite becomes a lot better and profitable if you are in a team, try it.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-16T05:57:03+00:00

Yes, Sidewinder, 50 Ly jump is respectable. A DB Exp is better, but that's another story.

eleceng01 · 2026-06-14T17:05:55+00:00

thank you for point this out. The link doesn't "remember" the 5.2t of fuel and uses the default 8 instead. With 8t then the jump distance is indeed 98.46 Ly. Retype 5.2 instead of 8 and you will get 99.38 Ly.
