How to spot someone who's never actually flown a Dolphin. Try traveling with it and you'll find out that you can charge a jump while full-rate scooping, all without gaining any heat. It cuts down on travel time like you wouldn't believe.
I’ll simp for any ship that turns on a dime, can go and land anywhere, can roll sideways through the mail slot, carries as many internals as some ships 3 times its size, runs so cold that it can practically run silent without running silent, can hug a star while charging FSD, and refuels so fast that it can literally be half refueled after the fuel is dumped into the FSD BEFORE the jump is even made. You got one that doesn’t look like a space dildo, I’ll trade out. No? Then you can call me Mr Space Dildo because I’m married to the thing.
Dolphin is wonderful for Bubble bouncing. A new player can get it to 30ly jump for 5 million. No engineering, no unlocked modules. Just a respectable in-bubble jump with all the goodies for getting around and taking a peek at planets as you pass them. It's a sightseeing build, but you want those to be fun and easy to handle. Also runs amazingly cool, with you being able to pop the frameshift while scooping, which shaves tons of time off multi-jumps. I recommend it to new players who aren't combat focused.
Type 7 actually scored higher than I was expecting, which is nice. I really enjoy the elongated 'space truck' look of the ship. One thing worth mentioning is its passenger capacity is great when compared to how much cargo it can normally carry, and absolutely fantastic for the price. Seriously, sort the Coriolis list by PAX and Type 7 is even cheaper than the next 7 ships below it. I keep one set up with economy cabins just to do burning stations, whenever those come around.
Yeah... I think it deserves to be at least OK. Fun little combat ship, but also really fun explorer. Unlike the other top speed ships, it can get a decent jump. It is the Fireball XL5 of the game in my books... blazing fast and can truly get around the Universe.
Same, it has a beast of a shield, fantastic speed and manourability, and a pretty decent loadout. That and looks sooo pretty. Does need engineering to really shine but its my small dogfighter of choice :) Currently retooling it for a xeno killer. I like a challenge :)
@@boli2746 my first clops kill was in one I don't recommend as its hull sucks But doable Really worth a chieftain Or if you like small It's what I would say it's the one use of the DBS
The dolphin is actually a good parallel with the diamondback exploror. worse jumprange for better internal slots (5a fuel shopping ftw) and the best cooling in the game.
Man, I am having soo much satisfaction with the Dolphin. After the Addler I wanted something that could carry much more. I saw some huge profits on deals with settlements but the Type 6 cant land on them. The Dolphin however can carry 2/3 of the Type 6 and land on those small país for juicy profits 😊🤑🤑🤑🤑
The Beluga is great for station evacuation! You get the MOST Economy Passenger space, even more if you forgo shields, and you can EASILY maximize profits with the Robigo cheese! Honestly it may be hyper specialized, but it pays itself off in both credits and rank! And since the only threats to you are avoidable AI interdictions and poor docking skills, I think the Beluga deserves AT LEAST a BAD tier but AT BEST a 1-USE tier. I love my space rescue egg!
Dolphins are amazing. Why? Heat dissipation. A Dolphin can spool its FSD while you're next to a star and not overheat. It can land on Skardee 1 with no heatsink launchers. This means it's a great explorer, because it's foolproof out in the black. It has jump range that's close to a DBX, but you can fit a nice big fuel scoop on it. Also, it has a tiny landing footprint, allowing you to land on sites like Guardian sites that often have very tiny flat areas to land, and its utility slots are perfect for a couple point defense turrets to shoot down sentinel missiles. It has lots of optional internal slots for Scarabs or repair limpets or fuel transfer limpets or shields. And it's cheap, so you can summon it cheaply. So overall, a Dolphin is the best explorer, best Bubble bus, and best Guardian site ship.
@@TheTenthAvenger Dolphins have a lower time at each star, though, because they can start the FSD immediately when the next star comes over the horizon of the current star without worrying about heat, and because they can fit a reasonably-sized fuel scoop. I've timed it and this means a Dolphin can compete very respectably in long-range travel.
@@TheTenthAvengerhow is it fitted? cos i flown a python for the past year and literally forgot anything bout my dbx build, i just put in it back a couple of everydays needs modules (like heatsinks some basic weapons small repair limpet controller etc) and my biggest and full engineered fsd and it does slightly more than 50 ly. a ship that can't do exploration and also a bit of all around things too is an instant no for me, even if with a lot of more jump range. while exploring i like landing on planets and moons with the srv or collecting things that i find or just use that ship for in bubble trips and quests without retrofitting everything or changing ship at all
My Krait Phantom jumps farther than my old Asp Explorer with the same internals. The Phantom is my favourite Exploration ship as it is still fast, manoeuvrable and you gotta enjoy 65ly jumps. Dolphin is a a good exploration ship with jump range and the ability to carry a size 5 fuel scoop. Orca is one of the fastest large ships, found it great for dodging ganks while carrying passengers or cargo. It’s good jump range makes it an OK exploration ship and it was my main engineer unlocking tool. My only real problem with the list however is that it does not take outfitting costs into account.
Yep. It definitely deserves to get to at least 1-use (since the class 5 slot now unrestricted... the DS rating is certainly very appropriate for it before that change). It's a viable option for cheap (but not Hauler dirt cheap) explorer... DBX has longer jump, but Dolphin has the big slots it needs, so it can get a class 5 guardian booster and a fuel scoop that refuels at a good rate.
@@vib80 It's better than a 1-use, as it's also a decent trader, comparable to the Type-6 with a bit less cargo but longer jump range. Also it looks good and is fun to fly.
I honestly like the Challenger as a combat ship, and although it may have had a fighter bay disadvantage in the past, I didn't use it and instead I try to make it as a more tankier variant of Chieftain. Is it a bit more expensive? Yes. Is it slightly slower? Yes. Does it allow for a 1-Class higher shield than chieftain and has more tanking capabilities, both shield and hull? Also yes. It is a good middle point between Chieftain and Fer-De-Lance. As for Crusader, I see it a good ship for surface gunship and multiplayer instances (not Multicrew, just join in a wing and let people join in from base).I know it's not an official gameplay, but I wish Frontier would support this and would buff dumb rockets for surface damage. I also want to make Type-10 as a surface badass gunship (and DAKA everyone on the planet surface) - I just like this idea of potential gameplay. Overall, I just wish that Frontier would re-do some of the ships and make them more useful and gameplay viable. Plus a weapons re-work, since the variety is kind of stale. No rocket-based weapon is good in this game (which kinda sucks), except that faction-locked launcher.
In Odyssey there are settlements, that allow only small ships to land on. Obviously you can land aside to that settlement, but you wouldn't be able to trade, repair or rearm, if the settlement has these facilities. So only if you have a trade mission to that settlement, you could use Cobra mkIV, but it would probably be even easier to just drop said mission and find something else...
What would you do with the beluga hard points? You can put 5 packhounds on it and overheat while accidentally hitting both sides in a war zone. Seriously though. It handles pretty well compared to the type 9 and has a much better jump range. Is the go to when stations are on fire and you can imagine you are actually the Captain of a high end ship with actual cable management. Also not scraping the mail box is like crack for kids. Also no need for fuel scoop. The fuel tank is massive oh and mass lock
I did a LOT of exploring with a Beluga, and I'm not the only one. Beluga is the ship that determines if/when I buy Odyssey. When I can invite other people over to sit in the luxury class lounge and enjoy the sunrise over Beagle Point together, perhaps over a nice drink, then I buy it.
The Courier is a pretty decent exploration ship. I say that as someone who engineered one for exploration before Odyssey came out and people started using it for exobiology. Built it and took the long way around to Colonia, which is where I've been for the past 5 years. With the SCO FSD and FSD booster, you can get up to 50ly on jumps with a full tank. But if you're willing to take a bit of a hit, you can strap an extra fuel tank as it has just the right amount of internal compartments to bring everything you need and still have a left over slot for more fuel. Plus, you can land pretty much anywhere you want. But obviously, the most important thing is that you're exploring in style. lol
My choices for best combat, (EVERYTHING grade 5). Chieftain, efficient beams oversized, and drag frags. Krait, efficient beams oversized, and drag frags. FDL, 4 efficient beams oversized w/ 1 huge rapid fire w/ autoload multi cannon. Rapid fire frag canons with drag munition are good with any small ship for slowing big ones down.
Only bad comments are related to Dolphin. Third best explorer due to over 50 even 60 range. Can do cargo OK. NOT a fighter. Best thing about Dolphin is it's small! Can go so many places.
Krait... The spicy dorito that dishes out some serious damage. It is even more effective in HazRes (for me) than lumbering around in my Corvette. It is absolutely fantastic!
I do find it neat that business class is actually more profitable than luxury, considering that's how it works with real life airlines too. First class may cost more, but it takes up way more space and is way more expensive to run. Business is where the real money is, both in Elite and IRL.
i watched part 1 and 2 , loved it!! like all ur content.... i've starting my new play through on odyssey because i only started playing elite on ps4 and i've gone from hauler maxed out to get to Robigo ..then type6, then type 7, then Anaconda didn't take long...ahh and i bought a python on the way because u always need a python.
Type-7 is great for Cargo hauling during CG’s,an ok mining ship but I use it as a bus to deliver mass quantities of passengers! That yaw is great. Shame it likes to get hot but that is what engineering is for!
Dolphin definitely belongs higher than Dogshit. Other comments have addressed this. 1 use to OK, maybe, maybe even bad, but not dogshit. It's a viable upgrade from a Hauler for early explorers, and you can turn it into a pretty good bubble bus later. Runs cool AF too.
One of the first things I would do if I was trying to rebalance things is swap the hardpoints on the Asp Scout with the Asp Explorer. It would not surprise me if the average number of hardpoints in use on AspXs is less than 1. People that buy the Scout though, use them all... the only thing to try with it is combat. And the fact that it has the same hardpoint layout as excellent small ships like the Cobra Mk III does not lead to favourable comparisons. It would take a lot more to get it up to 1-use level, but this would be a start.
Can you make a video about the player services that are in the game I just found out about the trader carriers and the Fcoc transport service. I pretty much only watch your videos cuz they're entertaining so I had no idea about them until I found them in game after I joined a random squad and they told me about them. I'm pretty sure we would all love knowing about other player stuff in-game. I popped my ship and they tell me why I do that I could have just called the fuel rats. Like I knew about them. 😅
Krait 2 may have an SLF bay, but unlike other medium ships it doesn't seem to have paid for the privilege. Yes, it has downsides next to the Python; Less armor and shield, and less cargo space. However, it also has upsides with superior speed, manuverability, and arguably better weapon placement (the lower large hard point can be difficult to use on the Python). Even if you removed the SLF, there'd still be reasons to use a Krait 2 over the Python. Python is absolutely a superior multipurpose ship, but I definitely prefer Krait 2 for combat.
I think my worst money investment was the Beluga, when I was naive and didnt know about Robigo Its still rotting in my garage and I still make myself believe that someday I will make a long ass passenger mission and this ship will be smiling at me. But its youngest brother Dolphin is hella fun to fly like for courier stuff or u gotta get rid of your bounty- travels. 50+LYs jump range (non-light weight engin.) makes it a fun little stylish bubble bus, especially when u grew tired of your DB-explorer.
What the Beluga has is essentially a fuel tank twice the size of what's typical (you get 10 jumps out of it... most ships get a fuel tank that gets them 4-6)... if you don't need that you can get a bit more range by downgrading or running at half-tank. But that doesn't really make it any better. It's hard to imagine a passenger mission coming along that wouldn't be better done with an Orca or Dolphin (assuming the need for a luxury cabin).
@@vib80 Ah yeah the fuel tank, thanks for the reminder.. Well yeah, I would even do a long trip in my Anaconda for that matter ( or the Dolphin), but I guess its some sort of role play element if u would do it in THE most luxurious ship. Hopefully someday they will correct passenger missions so they are worth doing in big ships (and the beluga gets a purpose), or in general (except for Robigo trips).
I do 120M an hour with the Beluga with minial risk, which makes it the best money-machine I've ever seen in the game because this is sure-proof, constant, not like the very variable and time-consuming mining. Keep on looking for the right spot, Robigo is not the best.
@@FlecheDeFer Never really let myself entertain the passenger missions. I think looking at them early on and the light years involved just put me way off. I might be tempted into doing it later though, but? For reference, last night I made almost a billion doing source missions for 50 mill a pop, back to Jameson 50ly roundntrip, in a T9, 756t cargo. 1 jump there, 2 jumps back fully loaded, the empty trip to the pick up is the longest part, but you're empty. Fully laden is 2 quick jump back, then only 300ls from Jameson. Some were to deliver 928 bert, but the gold or silver ones never went over 300, so it evened out to 50mil per trip. My question is, can I make more with passenger missions on the shorter Robigo missions than that? I'm at about 4 billion for a carrier, and my patients are wearing thin at this point. Or am I already earning peak money and should just stick with what I'm doing? I love the grind I do, but the last few yards are a bitch lol.
I Bring my FDL on ground missions a lot because it is fast on the landing and has the shield to get me out of any fuck up I make at military installations. It will also take the punishment if I crash and has more than enough armaments to missile the shit out of scavengers/Pirates. (Edit) Now the Imperial eagle... another great ship to drop you off on ground missions. Can fit a decent shield, Great Jump range (especially GFSB and engineered SCO FSD), and can fit vehicle bay.
Yamiks, one advantage of CobraIV that it looks better, the nose and tail hull areas, the small details. WHY you didn't mention th only good thing on that ship?
I main 3 ships (until I get my Fed ranks for Vette for PvE combat then 4) so aren't mad about their placements but I've not flown most ships and I'm PvE only so.. My experience is very limited. Cutter because mining and trading whilst looking amazing doing it. Krait Phantom because I like being far away from people and it moves so nicely (also sounds amazing). Python as my daily runner for missions, material farming, roaming around the bubble and just general "I need something done? Python can do it." I tried the Krait II before getting my Python but just prefer the Python overall for my daily runner. I might get an Anaconda for my trip to the center and other side of the galaxy though. I don't think the Phantom, as maneuverable as it is, would survive my stupid brain flying to close to a star or crash landing on a high G planet and won't wanna risk it. Any recommendations for a ship to try out and get to know is welcomed! I am PvE only though, so a PvP ship like FDL might not be good for me but I don't know too much about it so might be surprised.
Bruh, SLF is a literally huge hardpoint, that flies around, raining death on your enemies, grabbing their attention, while(most of the time) not dying when they have it, all the while not using your PP, PD, doesn't add heat and such, using only cargo/module space, which is, for something like this, are not a problem(except maybe for trade/mining, when you may not use even a shield), and also grabbing some % of your income if NPC flies it. This, you calling a disease, right?
Hey Yamiks, was AFK nerfed somehow in Odyssey? Haven't used T-10 since Horizons.. Oh, BTW, I love my tricked out Dolphin with Dumbfires for those pesky ground troops. Love all your shit & think your the best E:D creator out there...
The only ship on your tier list I disagree with is the Type-10. It has 1 use, an AFK bounty hunting ship. While I don't agree that it's good, it DOES have 1 use.
That ship when run asymmetrically(short range plasma on one side, multicannons on the other) and a class 8 cell bank, is pretty damn good. Running this setup keeps power low, so you can run lighter PP and get more agility in FAoff. Good mix of absolute burst/sustained, damage is great, and fixed plasma don't care about chaff + microgimbals a bit out to 1.5-2km. The big thing with the 10 is you need to engineer and tweak the shit out of it + experiment a lot. It sucks badly when not engineered, which gives it a bad rap. Best use for me was assassinations/massacres and exploring mix.
@@nezumiyarou9347 This 👆I want to try. Went more for the cargo of the T9, but had a few goes on just A rated T10's. Filled it with turrets, couldn't even get nose on the attacker and he was dead, I think it was a pirate FDL. I just assumed I'd made a silly mistake with most of my money at the time. I want to do the cargo full of gold and the AKF build, that sounds hilarious.
@@branjosnow6244 Its surprisingly agile in FAoff. Had no issue keeping ships in gunsights with boost + FAoff turns. It's one of the few ships I go full FAoff in combat, since its so easy to fly like that. I use relative mouse with FAoff. The imp beam fighter is great to strip shields/pressure smaller ships, and it hardly ever dies with a decent AI pilot.
@@nezumiyarou9347 You were spot on, I engineered one up last night and gave it a fair try. Had an absolute blast going through pirates like wet paper. With spending a lot of time lately in the T9, a hell of a cargo space, but you have to run away from most every fight. The T10 is a definitely more fun than I gave it credit. Thanks dude.
I have to say DOLPHIN is not shitdog. Man I love your videos, and I did considered your sugestions to buy ships early in game. I bought the Type-6 to make some money, but two things stroke me just in the start: couldnt jump to some of the most profitable options, limited to 8 or 9LY and when I managed this those places are settlements with small pads, soo I couldnt land on them. Then I researched and found the Dolphin which you said it is dogshit. It is not, in a single day I jumped from making a few hundred thousand a day to 4 million in a day. Why? Because it allow me to carry 64t which is 2/3 of a Type 6 and land on a small pad, plus I can travel far away (more then 12LY). Some settlements pays HUGE diference from average market and that is when I can make profit with the Dolphin. My only complain is that it is really bad looking.
@@cmdrHeliaxx what do you figure are some must haves for AC combat? PvE stuff. I'm get prismatics unlocked this week and was going to go for advanced plasmas next. I wish I could set 3 fire groups instead of 2. Atm I think I have 2 Large lasers, a cannon and a bunch of small missle racks
@@scottcavill4807 I used for PVE mix of Burst lasers And Multicannons unengineered, and small Beams And Multicannons if engineered. On my Channel I have unengineered PvE combat build of challenger, but you could easily do the same idea in Chieftain. Missiles from my experience aren't really that Worth it for PvE, but I do actually like prismatics on Alliance ships, altho they Are meant more to be hull tanks.
dunno why people still talk about "big 3" when it should at least be big 4 including the t10 since its the most massive ship and perhaps big 5 for the beluga for its footprint being bigger than the rest of the ships. speaking of type 10, its placed far too low. its a good multipurpose ship with good cargo capacity, not dreadful jump range if you keep it built for that, best armour in the game, great mining ship, it got its distributor buffed some time ago so it can actually make use of its weapons (though its not a class 8), plenty of optional internals. it may not be great at what its officially meant to be good for (thargoids) but not much is (hauler is called hauler ffs, shit doesnt haul jack). its similar to an anaconda in many ways (more so than it is to a corvette or a cutter) and should earn a place as a good ship. seems like you just have animosity against some ships and arent looking at much objectively with a few ships. also fer-de-lance is the definition of a 1 purpose ship, at anything other than combat is sucks balls.
I must disagree about the Cobra Mk IV. I also used to hate the ship because I compared it to the Cobra Mk III (obviously ...) and the lack of speed and manouverability makes the Mk IV simply terrible in comparison. BUT If you stop seing it as a failed upgrade to the Cobra Mk III and have an unbiased look at it, you will realize it actually has phantastic optional internals for its size and price range. It is not a 'better' (or worse) Cobra Mk III, it's more a a miniature (and cheaper) Python. Not only does it have an additional class 4 optional compartment (which means more cargo or simply more options), it has two class 3 compartments which the Cobra Mk III for whatever reason lacks. As the minimal shield size for both Cobras is class 3, it means you no longer have to sacrifice one of your precious class 4 compartments for a shield generator if you're fine with reduced shield capacity (which is fine for evertything except combat). If you run class 3 shields, you now have not one, but TWO additional class 4 compartments compared to the Cobra Mk III plus another class 3. That opens a ton of options and possible loadouts / uses for the ship that the Mk III simply can't offer. It's a decent trader or passenger ship. It's a formidable planetary ship. It's a good low price miner. It can do pretty much everything except combat. And due to engineering, you can at least make it ok-ish in terms of speed and manouverability. With R5 dirty drives, it goes from a pathetically slow slug to a decent device to get you from A to B. I wish, they had made it a timed exclusive only and gave to to all players after a while. Because then, they would not have had to cripple the speed and manouverability so much (to avoid 'pay to win' discussions). But if you get over that fact and stop seing it as an upgrade to the Cobra Mk III, it starts to grow on you. For me it went from the most hated ship in the game to a versatile, little swiss army knife which I actually enjoy to use when I'm tired of all those big pots.
Been watching your videos, i feel like i got suckered in a cobra mk3 by friends, not sure what i SHOULD be doing in order to jimo and buy a python. About 22 million and these shitty courier missions are gonna take me forever to get enough money. Should i just wait for resource sites and wait for police to shoot first after i scan a bounty? Got blew up...QQ
did dolphin dirty. cheaper then dbx, still among the top best jump ranges, can fit a size 5 fuel scoop, which dbx can't, has better optional internals then dbx, and it's faster then dbx. honestly the only functonal advantage dbx has over dolphin is jump range and hardpoints. so basically it's superior in multiple ways to dbx, and is still very good on the things it's not superior at (except hardpoints) but dbx gets ok and dolphin gets dogshit? dude did dolphin dirty
Everyone keeps singing the Python's praises, but I feel it sucks in combat. It's just too slow and not very maneuverable. Great for mining, but that's about it.
Cobra 3 is the very first ship i purchased after the sidewinder and its a very solid ship, im rocking the corvette now. in terms of jumprange i managed to fit a scoop and a decent 29ly jumprange with it therefore it has never been an issue, people forget that it has a crap ton of optional module slots and 3 of them are class 7's.
What some of these ships need is a pad change. There's a lot of problems with them that wouldn't be problems if they were the right tier. Asp Scout as a small ship? Yes, makes more sense. Still shit, but shit that makes sense. Orca a medium? Makes a lot of sense, giving us a small, medium, and large luxury ship. Same with the Clipper and Type-7, while the Type-6 goes to Small. Biggest small maybe, but like Keelback and Dogshit, it doesn't qualify as a Medium ship in terms of loadout. Whatever logic Fdev used is invalid logic - they also designed the engineering system, powerplay weapons, and cytoscrambler in particular. They also came up with the Mamba, Type 10, and Cobra 4 - their logic is questionable best. Clipper as Medium and competition for the Krait and Python, just like Cutter is competition for Corvette and Anaconda, not a shitty large ship with all the qualities of a medium to compete with Cutter which is a large ship and a mighty fine one at that. Type 10 is just a joke like Asp Scout, but unlike Asp Scout some people have made it work for SOMETHING. I can give more examples, but I think my point has been made.
Why are you always speaking about the prices, money isn't really hard to make in the game so it shouldn't be such an important point... Even related to insurance it's not such an important point. Also looks like you are not considerating some part of the game like multicrew or odyssey, for me keelback was much better than type 6 cause i was able to bring a friend (might not have been the most efficient or usefull but we had fun doing trade with my friend covering me with fighter or him tontroling some turrets, helping with scans... We even won against some gankers), and after with the release of odyssey we still use it as our 2 players dropship for ground missions, can hold 2 SRV, a fighterbay we use to scout or destroy drones, shotgun to blast ground troops before landing, canon to take down turrets... Cool ship for odyssey with a friend !
The type 10 could be a bit higher, I like it. For armoured traider or res site mining it works well. I'd even call it good if not for the f#*%!€¥ spoiler.
If the spoiler had have been for another couple of hard points it would have been fine. But it's just literally just a spoiler on a space ship, when there's no air to spoil.
Pretty similar ship to an anaconda, but less jump range in exchange for better armour. Couple other details but they are similar ships, both good for multipurpose if you ask me but I would rather fly a t10 for combat.
Very nice vidéo as Always, but... The Corvette is god tiers for me, best ship in the game, i just can't fly any other ship, i do everything with my beloved corvette lol. Yes i can't Land on outpost, my jump is not optimal if i compare to other ship, but for me she is perfect, i was in colonia and beagle point with her, i Can fight anything and won easely(except Real player of course^^). It's a real pleasure to fly for a ship of that size, in conclusion,there is for now nothing in the game like the corvette :)
Tbh I feel like the python is overrated due to how over used it is. Everyone and their grandma is either running on a python or on a federal Corvette. Is the ships I have seen the most.

How to spot someone who's never actually flown a Dolphin. Try traveling with it and you'll find out that you can charge a jump while full-rate scooping, all without gaining any heat. It cuts down on travel time like you wouldn't believe.
how to spot dolphin simps...
I’ll simp for any ship that turns on a dime, can go and land anywhere, can roll sideways through the mail slot, carries as many internals as some ships 3 times its size, runs so cold that it can practically run silent without running silent, can hug a star while charging FSD, and refuels so fast that it can literally be half refueled after the fuel is dumped into the FSD BEFORE the jump is even made.
You got one that doesn’t look like a space dildo, I’ll trade out.
No? Then you can call me Mr Space Dildo because I’m married to the thing.
@@TheYamiks I am definitely a Dolphin simp! :)
Krait Phantom does that except it looks like the millennium falcon instead of a vibrator.
@@runpullfourskinz6796 You say that like looking like a vibrator is a bad thing...
Absolutely love the Beluga just for the sake of rescuing people from damaged stations with it.
I also think both Krait Mk2 and Python belong to the best tier, but Krait It's my favorite simply because it has a centered cockpit seat
Dolphin is wonderful for Bubble bouncing. A new player can get it to 30ly jump for 5 million. No engineering, no unlocked modules. Just a respectable in-bubble jump with all the goodies for getting around and taking a peek at planets as you pass them. It's a sightseeing build, but you want those to be fun and easy to handle.
Also runs amazingly cool, with you being able to pop the frameshift while scooping, which shaves tons of time off multi-jumps.
I recommend it to new players who aren't combat focused.
Type 7 actually scored higher than I was expecting, which is nice. I really enjoy the elongated 'space truck' look of the ship. One thing worth mentioning is its passenger capacity is great when compared to how much cargo it can normally carry, and absolutely fantastic for the price. Seriously, sort the Coriolis list by PAX and Type 7 is even cheaper than the next 7 ships below it. I keep one set up with economy cabins just to do burning stations, whenever those come around.
Mine is set up for station rescue too, now that I have better more expensive cargo ships. Type7 deserves it's place.
Completely agree. I loved using it to deliver passengers or cargo in open play during CG’s.
The Imperal Courier was my favourite ship of all time
Yeah... I think it deserves to be at least OK. Fun little combat ship, but also really fun explorer. Unlike the other top speed ships, it can get a decent jump. It is the Fireball XL5 of the game in my books... blazing fast and can truly get around the Universe.
Same, it has a beast of a shield, fantastic speed and manourability, and a pretty decent loadout. That and looks sooo pretty.
Does need engineering to really shine but its my small dogfighter of choice :)
Currently retooling it for a xeno killer. I like a challenge :)
@@boli2746 my first clops kill was in one
I don't recommend as its hull sucks
But doable
Really worth a chieftain
Or if you like small
It's what I would say it's the one use of the DBS
I think it should be higher simply because in MY opinion, it’s the best sounding ship in the game
The dolphin is actually a good parallel with the diamondback exploror. worse jumprange for better internal slots (5a fuel shopping ftw) and the best cooling in the game.
you really need to rethink your stance on the Dolphin, its a GREAT early explorer
HAULER
I agree with both of you, but I think Dolphin is super fun to fly as a bubble bus when u got some extra space bling bling to spare.
Dolphin is, actually, Type-6 twin.
It could do everything T6 does.
Only things wrong with it is cropped canopy view, and +300K price.
I really like Dolphin as an explorer.
Man, I am having soo much satisfaction with the Dolphin. After the Addler I wanted something that could carry much more. I saw some huge profits on deals with settlements but the Type 6 cant land on them. The Dolphin however can carry 2/3 of the Type 6 and land on those small país for juicy profits 😊🤑🤑🤑🤑
The Beluga is great for station evacuation! You get the MOST Economy Passenger space, even more if you forgo shields, and you can EASILY maximize profits with the Robigo cheese!
Honestly it may be hyper specialized, but it pays itself off in both credits and rank! And since the only threats to you are avoidable AI interdictions and poor docking skills, I think the Beluga deserves AT LEAST a BAD tier but AT BEST a 1-USE tier.
I love my space rescue egg!
Dolphins are amazing. Why? Heat dissipation. A Dolphin can spool its FSD while you're next to a star and not overheat. It can land on Skardee 1 with no heatsink launchers. This means it's a great explorer, because it's foolproof out in the black. It has jump range that's close to a DBX, but you can fit a nice big fuel scoop on it. Also, it has a tiny landing footprint, allowing you to land on sites like Guardian sites that often have very tiny flat areas to land, and its utility slots are perfect for a couple point defense turrets to shoot down sentinel missiles. It has lots of optional internal slots for Scarabs or repair limpets or fuel transfer limpets or shields. And it's cheap, so you can summon it cheaply. So overall, a Dolphin is the best explorer, best Bubble bus, and best Guardian site ship.
My DBX has 72.6 Ly of range.
A Dolphin equally equipped has 60.9 Ly.
Yeah... No
@@TheTenthAvenger Dolphins have a lower time at each star, though, because they can start the FSD immediately when the next star comes over the horizon of the current star without worrying about heat, and because they can fit a reasonably-sized fuel scoop. I've timed it and this means a Dolphin can compete very respectably in long-range travel.
@@TheTenthAvengerhow is it fitted? cos i flown a python for the past year and literally forgot anything bout my dbx build, i just put in it back a couple of everydays needs modules (like heatsinks some basic weapons small repair limpet controller etc) and my biggest and full engineered fsd and it does slightly more than 50 ly. a ship that can't do exploration and also a bit of all around things too is an instant no for me, even if with a lot of more jump range. while exploring i like landing on planets and moons with the srv or collecting things that i find or just use that ship for in bubble trips and quests without retrofitting everything or changing ship at all
Lol I actually really like the Beluga. I think I rescued damaged stations entire populations single handedly with that ship.
Slight correction: I got Cobra 4 and didn't pre-order Horizons. There was a window in which you could buy Horizons after release in which you got it.
The Beluga is god tier... if you have a space-Uber fantasy
My Krait Phantom jumps farther than my old Asp Explorer with the same internals. The Phantom is my favourite Exploration ship as it is still fast, manoeuvrable and you gotta enjoy 65ly jumps. Dolphin is a a good exploration ship with jump range and the ability to carry a size 5 fuel scoop. Orca is one of the fastest large ships, found it great for dodging ganks while carrying passengers or cargo. It’s good jump range makes it an OK exploration ship and it was my main engineer unlocking tool. My only real problem with the list however is that it does not take outfitting costs into account.
Stat-wise the dolphin is an incredible explorer for its size. Very fast too with the class 5 thrusters.
And almost impossible to overheat if suitably outfitted: it can stay forever at 47% heat with full thrust and FSD charging.
Yep. It definitely deserves to get to at least 1-use (since the class 5 slot now unrestricted... the DS rating is certainly very appropriate for it before that change). It's a viable option for cheap (but not Hauler dirt cheap) explorer... DBX has longer jump, but Dolphin has the big slots it needs, so it can get a class 5 guardian booster and a fuel scoop that refuels at a good rate.
@@vib80 It's better than a 1-use, as it's also a decent trader, comparable to the Type-6 with a bit less cargo but longer jump range.
Also it looks good and is fun to fly.
I honestly like the Challenger as a combat ship, and although it may have had a fighter bay disadvantage in the past, I didn't use it and instead I try to make it as a more tankier variant of Chieftain. Is it a bit more expensive? Yes. Is it slightly slower? Yes. Does it allow for a 1-Class higher shield than chieftain and has more tanking capabilities, both shield and hull? Also yes. It is a good middle point between Chieftain and Fer-De-Lance.
As for Crusader, I see it a good ship for surface gunship and multiplayer instances (not Multicrew, just join in a wing and let people join in from base).I know it's not an official gameplay, but I wish Frontier would support this and would buff dumb rockets for surface damage. I also want to make Type-10 as a surface badass gunship (and DAKA everyone on the planet surface) - I just like this idea of potential gameplay.
Overall, I just wish that Frontier would re-do some of the ships and make them more useful and gameplay viable. Plus a weapons re-work, since the variety is kind of stale. No rocket-based weapon is good in this game (which kinda sucks), except that faction-locked launcher.
In Odyssey there are settlements, that allow only small ships to land on. Obviously you can land aside to that settlement, but you wouldn't be able to trade, repair or rearm, if the settlement has these facilities. So only if you have a trade mission to that settlement, you could use Cobra mkIV, but it would probably be even easier to just drop said mission and find something else...
Asp Scout still has the fastest supercruise turning speed tied to sidewinder making it a good space photography ship
..no
I once dragged an ASP Scout to Sag A* just because I could.
The ASP Explorer has always been my favourite ship in the game
What would you do with the beluga hard points? You can put 5 packhounds on it and overheat while accidentally hitting both sides in a war zone.
Seriously though. It handles pretty well compared to the type 9 and has a much better jump range. Is the go to when stations are on fire and you can imagine you are actually the Captain of a high end ship with actual cable management.
Also not scraping the mail box is like crack for kids.
Also no need for fuel scoop. The fuel tank is massive oh and mass lock
I did a LOT of exploring with a Beluga, and I'm not the only one. Beluga is the ship that determines if/when I buy Odyssey. When I can invite other people over to sit in the luxury class lounge and enjoy the sunrise over Beagle Point together, perhaps over a nice drink, then I buy it.
Imagine talking Titanic to a battle ship fight. Thats what you saying about hardpoints :)
@@doodiezgrandpa6520 exactly. What a flex to be able to kill a federal gunship while carrying your own cheer squad.
The Courier is a pretty decent exploration ship. I say that as someone who engineered one for exploration before Odyssey came out and people started using it for exobiology. Built it and took the long way around to Colonia, which is where I've been for the past 5 years. With the SCO FSD and FSD booster, you can get up to 50ly on jumps with a full tank. But if you're willing to take a bit of a hit, you can strap an extra fuel tank as it has just the right amount of internal compartments to bring everything you need and still have a left over slot for more fuel. Plus, you can land pretty much anywhere you want. But obviously, the most important thing is that you're exploring in style. lol
I love the type 10 kick space rocks
My choices for best combat, (EVERYTHING grade 5). Chieftain, efficient beams oversized, and drag frags. Krait, efficient beams oversized, and drag frags. FDL, 4 efficient beams oversized w/ 1 huge rapid fire w/ autoload multi cannon. Rapid fire frag canons with drag munition are good with any small ship for slowing big ones down.
Min max galore
I think Fas is underrated, but it's probably a matter of personal taste.
The Krait Phantom is my favourite ship for exploration and the Krait MKII, Fer De Lance and Chieftan are my favourite combat ships.
damn my boy the dolphin just got murdered
I love my type 10.. it is a one use ship but it's made me billions from that 1 use.
Amen.
If this tier list has taught me anything, it is that I will strive to purchase a Beluga and outfit it for combat 👍
You missed the best feature of the Krait Mk2. The hard points on either side of the cockpit.
I would pay just for the cockpit and those hard points.
The dolphin not only runs colder than the DBX but scoops faster and therefore travels faster than the dbx even though the DBX beats it in jump range
Seems like they needed to nerf the Scarab for the Scorpion to be relevant. The Scarab is already practically invincible in combat.
Just buff the Scorpions, for what sake you should nerf shit in mostly pve game
Scarab is a baseline, skorpion is Just shit
Only bad comments are related to Dolphin. Third best explorer due to over 50 even 60 range. Can do cargo OK. NOT a fighter. Best thing about Dolphin is it's small! Can go so many places.
I would say it can do cargo very well, 64t is 2/3 of the type 6 (which is médium size). Loving it for haul
Type-10 with all missiles = The "Bang Bus"
Krait... The spicy dorito that dishes out some serious damage.
It is even more effective in HazRes (for me) than lumbering around in my Corvette. It is absolutely fantastic!
There are as far as I know actually some Odyssey settlements that only have a small landing pad (they are not used very often though)
I do find it neat that business class is actually more profitable than luxury, considering that's how it works with real life airlines too. First class may cost more, but it takes up way more space and is way more expensive to run. Business is where the real money is, both in Elite and IRL.
i watched part 1 and 2 , loved it!! like all ur content.... i've starting my new play through on odyssey because i only started playing elite on ps4 and i've gone from hauler maxed out to get to Robigo ..then type6, then type 7, then Anaconda didn't take long...ahh and i bought a python on the way because u always need a python.
Type-7 is great for Cargo hauling during CG’s,an ok mining ship but I use it as a bus to deliver mass quantities of passengers! That yaw is great. Shame it likes to get hot but that is what engineering is for!
You dissing my beluga :) - its my miner as it has all the slots for all the mining gear and i use it for station rescue - but its a big fat slow boy
I watched a dolphin absolutely body a player Corvette using rail guns.
Dolphin definitely belongs higher than Dogshit. Other comments have addressed this. 1 use to OK, maybe, maybe even bad, but not dogshit. It's a viable upgrade from a Hauler for early explorers, and you can turn it into a pretty good bubble bus later. Runs cool AF too.
I disagree with about 60% of your choices, but you somehow made a fucking *tier list* entertaining in your own bizarre little way 🙃
thanks and folks are always wrong soo what are ya gonna do. at least you are 40% right!
One of the first things I would do if I was trying to rebalance things is swap the hardpoints on the Asp Scout with the Asp Explorer. It would not surprise me if the average number of hardpoints in use on AspXs is less than 1. People that buy the Scout though, use them all... the only thing to try with it is combat. And the fact that it has the same hardpoint layout as excellent small ships like the Cobra Mk III does not lead to favourable comparisons. It would take a lot more to get it up to 1-use level, but this would be a start.
Thanks!
I think you missed the "meme" tier, right in between "Bad" & "1-Use".
Can you make a video about the player services that are in the game I just found out about the trader carriers and the Fcoc transport service. I pretty much only watch your videos cuz they're entertaining so I had no idea about them until I found them in game after I joined a random squad and they told me about them.
I'm pretty sure we would all love knowing about other player stuff in-game.
I popped my ship and they tell me why I do that I could have just called the fuel rats. Like I knew about them. 😅
yes, Dolphin is costly, but it's such fun to fly.
Krait 2 may have an SLF bay, but unlike other medium ships it doesn't seem to have paid for the privilege. Yes, it has downsides next to the Python; Less armor and shield, and less cargo space. However, it also has upsides with superior speed, manuverability, and arguably better weapon placement (the lower large hard point can be difficult to use on the Python). Even if you removed the SLF, there'd still be reasons to use a Krait 2 over the Python. Python is absolutely a superior multipurpose ship, but I definitely prefer Krait 2 for combat.
Dolphin is a very good multitask/farming ship, and Beluga is the best money-making machine in the game.
I think my worst money investment was the Beluga, when I was naive and didnt know about Robigo Its still rotting in my garage and I still make myself believe that someday I will make a long ass passenger mission and this ship will be smiling at me.
But its youngest brother Dolphin is hella fun to fly like for courier stuff or u gotta get rid of your bounty- travels. 50+LYs jump range (non-light weight engin.) makes it a fun little stylish bubble bus, especially when u grew tired of your DB-explorer.
What the Beluga has is essentially a fuel tank twice the size of what's typical (you get 10 jumps out of it... most ships get a fuel tank that gets them 4-6)... if you don't need that you can get a bit more range by downgrading or running at half-tank. But that doesn't really make it any better. It's hard to imagine a passenger mission coming along that wouldn't be better done with an Orca or Dolphin (assuming the need for a luxury cabin).
@@vib80 Ah yeah the fuel tank, thanks for the reminder.. Well yeah, I would even do a long trip in my Anaconda for that matter ( or the Dolphin), but I guess its some sort of role play element if u would do it in THE most luxurious ship. Hopefully someday they will correct passenger missions so they are worth doing in big ships (and the beluga gets a purpose), or in general (except for Robigo trips).
I do 120M an hour with the Beluga with minial risk, which makes it the best money-machine I've ever seen in the game because this is sure-proof, constant, not like the very variable and time-consuming mining. Keep on looking for the right spot, Robigo is not the best.
@@FlecheDeFer Never really let myself entertain the passenger missions. I think looking at them early on and the light years involved just put me way off. I might be tempted into doing it later though, but?
For reference, last night I made almost a billion doing source missions for 50 mill a pop, back to Jameson 50ly roundntrip, in a T9, 756t cargo. 1 jump there, 2 jumps back fully loaded, the empty trip to the pick up is the longest part, but you're empty. Fully laden is 2 quick jump back, then only 300ls from Jameson. Some were to deliver 928 bert, but the gold or silver ones never went over 300, so it evened out to 50mil per trip.
My question is, can I make more with passenger missions on the shorter Robigo missions than that?
I'm at about 4 billion for a carrier, and my patients are wearing thin at this point. Or am I already earning peak money and should just stick with what I'm doing?
I love the grind I do, but the last few yards are a bitch lol.
I Bring my FDL on ground missions a lot because it is fast on the landing and has the shield to get me out of any fuck up I make at military installations. It will also take the punishment if I crash and has more than enough armaments to missile the shit out of scavengers/Pirates.
(Edit) Now the Imperial eagle... another great ship to drop you off on ground missions. Can fit a decent shield, Great Jump range (especially GFSB and engineered SCO FSD), and can fit vehicle bay.
Yamiks is the ELITE DANGEROUS POLICE hahahaha
Yamiks, one advantage of CobraIV that it looks better, the nose and tail hull areas, the small details. WHY you didn't mention th only good thing on that ship?
I main 3 ships (until I get my Fed ranks for Vette for PvE combat then 4) so aren't mad about their placements but I've not flown most ships and I'm PvE only so.. My experience is very limited.
Cutter because mining and trading whilst looking amazing doing it.
Krait Phantom because I like being far away from people and it moves so nicely (also sounds amazing).
Python as my daily runner for missions, material farming, roaming around the bubble and just general "I need something done? Python can do it."
I tried the Krait II before getting my Python but just prefer the Python overall for my daily runner. I might get an Anaconda for my trip to the center and other side of the galaxy though. I don't think the Phantom, as maneuverable as it is, would survive my stupid brain flying to close to a star or crash landing on a high G planet and won't wanna risk it.
Any recommendations for a ship to try out and get to know is welcomed! I am PvE only though, so a PvP ship like FDL might not be good for me but I don't know too much about it so might be surprised.
you even mention the Federal Dropship, but forgot to add it to the list
Bruh, SLF is a literally huge hardpoint, that flies around, raining death on your enemies, grabbing their attention, while(most of the time) not dying when they have it, all the while not using your PP, PD, doesn't add heat and such, using only cargo/module space, which is, for something like this, are not a problem(except maybe for trade/mining, when you may not use even a shield), and also grabbing some % of your income if NPC flies it.
This, you calling a disease, right?
Why are all ships that use fighters bad but fighters arent bad?????? Like don't you have to use multicrew to use fighters?
Soon a part 3 will come out with all of the new ships! Right?...right?
Hey Yamiks, was AFK nerfed somehow in Odyssey? Haven't used T-10 since Horizons.. Oh, BTW, I love my tricked out Dolphin with Dumbfires for those pesky ground troops. Love all your shit & think your the best E:D creator out there...
No idea
Imp Courier and the Viper3 are Railgun kings.
I prefer the Imp with 3x Hammers.
7:50 The maximum jump range is ... YES.
The only ship on your tier list I disagree with is the Type-10. It has 1 use, an AFK bounty hunting ship. While I don't agree that it's good, it DOES have 1 use.
That ship when run asymmetrically(short range plasma on one side, multicannons on the other) and a class 8 cell bank, is pretty damn good.
Running this setup keeps power low, so you can run lighter PP and get more agility in FAoff.
Good mix of absolute burst/sustained, damage is great, and fixed plasma don't care about chaff + microgimbals a bit out to 1.5-2km.
The big thing with the 10 is you need to engineer and tweak the shit out of it + experiment a lot. It sucks badly when not engineered, which gives it a bad rap.
Best use for me was assassinations/massacres and exploring mix.
@@nezumiyarou9347 This 👆I want to try. Went more for the cargo of the T9, but had a few goes on just A rated T10's.
Filled it with turrets, couldn't even get nose on the attacker and he was dead, I think it was a pirate FDL. I just assumed I'd made a silly mistake with most of my money at the time.
I want to do the cargo full of gold and the AKF build, that sounds hilarious.
@@branjosnow6244 Its surprisingly agile in FAoff. Had no issue keeping ships in gunsights with boost + FAoff turns. It's one of the few ships I go full FAoff in combat, since its so easy to fly like that.
I use relative mouse with FAoff.
The imp beam fighter is great to strip shields/pressure smaller ships, and it hardly ever dies with a decent AI pilot.
@@nezumiyarou9347 You were spot on, I engineered one up last night and gave it a fair try. Had an absolute blast going through pirates like wet paper.
With spending a lot of time lately in the T9, a hell of a cargo space, but you have to run away from most every fight.
The T10 is a definitely more fun than I gave it credit. Thanks dude.
it's funny that the both ships I currently own (Viper 4, DBS) are in "dogshit".
So the best manufacturer in the game is Faulcon DeLacy. Long live the snakes! 🐍🐍🐍
I have to say DOLPHIN is not shitdog. Man I love your videos, and I did considered your sugestions to buy ships early in game. I bought the Type-6 to make some money, but two things stroke me just in the start: couldnt jump to some of the most profitable options, limited to 8 or 9LY and when I managed this those places are settlements with small pads, soo I couldnt land on them. Then I researched and found the Dolphin which you said it is dogshit. It is not, in a single day I jumped from making a few hundred thousand a day to 4 million in a day. Why? Because it allow me to carry 64t which is 2/3 of a Type 6 and land on a small pad, plus I can travel far away (more then 12LY). Some settlements pays HUGE diference from average market and that is when I can make profit with the Dolphin. My only complain is that it is really bad looking.
What do you think of the Alliance Chieftain?
I have a MK2 as my "main" ship. I'm playing around with the AC and Vulture as my main "combat" ships
Chieftain is extremely Fun to fly and really good for combat too. I'd definitely recommend it 😁
@@cmdrHeliaxx what do you figure are some must haves for AC combat? PvE stuff.
I'm get prismatics unlocked this week and was going to go for advanced plasmas next.
I wish I could set 3 fire groups instead of 2.
Atm I think I have 2 Large lasers, a cannon and a bunch of small missle racks
Maybe 3 plasmas with 3 thermal vent beams? Idk
@@scottcavill4807 I used for PVE mix of Burst lasers And Multicannons unengineered, and small Beams And Multicannons if engineered. On my Channel I have unengineered PvE combat build of challenger, but you could easily do the same idea in Chieftain. Missiles from my experience aren't really that Worth it for PvE, but I do actually like prismatics on Alliance ships, altho they Are meant more to be hull tanks.
dunno why people still talk about "big 3" when it should at least be big 4 including the t10 since its the most massive ship and perhaps big 5 for the beluga for its footprint being bigger than the rest of the ships.
speaking of type 10, its placed far too low. its a good multipurpose ship with good cargo capacity, not dreadful jump range if you keep it built for that, best armour in the game, great mining ship, it got its distributor buffed some time ago so it can actually make use of its weapons (though its not a class 8), plenty of optional internals. it may not be great at what its officially meant to be good for (thargoids) but not much is (hauler is called hauler ffs, shit doesnt haul jack). its similar to an anaconda in many ways (more so than it is to a corvette or a cutter) and should earn a place as a good ship. seems like you just have animosity against some ships and arent looking at much objectively with a few ships.
also fer-de-lance is the definition of a 1 purpose ship, at anything other than combat is sucks balls.
I must disagree about the Cobra Mk IV. I also used to hate the ship because I compared it to the Cobra Mk III (obviously ...) and the lack of speed and manouverability makes the Mk IV simply terrible in comparison.
BUT
If you stop seing it as a failed upgrade to the Cobra Mk III and have an unbiased look at it, you will realize it actually has phantastic optional internals for its size and price range. It is not a 'better' (or worse) Cobra Mk III, it's more a a miniature (and cheaper) Python.
Not only does it have an additional class 4 optional compartment (which means more cargo or simply more options), it has two class 3 compartments which the Cobra Mk III for whatever reason lacks. As the minimal shield size for both Cobras is class 3, it means you no longer have to sacrifice one of your precious class 4 compartments for a shield generator if you're fine with reduced shield capacity (which is fine for evertything except combat). If you run class 3 shields, you now have not one, but TWO additional class 4 compartments compared to the Cobra Mk III plus another class 3. That opens a ton of options and possible loadouts / uses for the ship that the Mk III simply can't offer.
It's a decent trader or passenger ship. It's a formidable planetary ship. It's a good low price miner. It can do pretty much everything except combat.
And due to engineering, you can at least make it ok-ish in terms of speed and manouverability. With R5 dirty drives, it goes from a pathetically slow slug to a decent device to get you from A to B.
I wish, they had made it a timed exclusive only and gave to to all players after a while. Because then, they would not have had to cripple the speed and manouverability so much (to avoid 'pay to win' discussions). But if you get over that fact and stop seing it as an upgrade to the Cobra Mk III, it starts to grow on you. For me it went from the most hated ship in the game to a versatile, little swiss army knife which I actually enjoy to use when I'm tired of all those big pots.
Nooooo I’m watching this whilst in my Cobra Mk IV! It’s bad in a great way! You can’t put it below an Asp Scout!! I mean, you did but no!
Been watching your videos, i feel like i got suckered in a cobra mk3 by friends, not sure what i SHOULD be doing in order to jimo and buy a python. About 22 million and these shitty courier missions are gonna take me forever to get enough money. Should i just wait for resource sites and wait for police to shoot first after i scan a bounty? Got blew up...QQ
i have videos on how to each credits a LOOOOOOOOOOOT faster
Where does the cutter come in the tier list?
watch & find out!
did dolphin dirty. cheaper then dbx, still among the top best jump ranges, can fit a size 5 fuel scoop, which dbx can't, has better optional internals then dbx, and it's faster then dbx. honestly the only functonal advantage dbx has over dolphin is jump range and hardpoints. so basically it's superior in multiple ways to dbx, and is still very good on the things it's not superior at (except hardpoints) but dbx gets ok and dolphin gets dogshit?
dude did dolphin dirty
Everyone keeps singing the Python's praises, but I feel it sucks in combat. It's just too slow and not very maneuverable. Great for mining, but that's about it.
Cobra 3 is the very first ship i purchased after the sidewinder and its a very solid ship, im rocking the corvette now. in terms of jumprange i managed to fit a scoop and a decent 29ly jumprange with it therefore it has never been an issue, people forget that it has a crap ton of optional module slots and 3 of them are class 7's.
What some of these ships need is a pad change. There's a lot of problems with them that wouldn't be problems if they were the right tier. Asp Scout as a small ship? Yes, makes more sense. Still shit, but shit that makes sense. Orca a medium? Makes a lot of sense, giving us a small, medium, and large luxury ship. Same with the Clipper and Type-7, while the Type-6 goes to Small. Biggest small maybe, but like Keelback and Dogshit, it doesn't qualify as a Medium ship in terms of loadout. Whatever logic Fdev used is invalid logic - they also designed the engineering system, powerplay weapons, and cytoscrambler in particular. They also came up with the Mamba, Type 10, and Cobra 4 - their logic is questionable best. Clipper as Medium and competition for the Krait and Python, just like Cutter is competition for Corvette and Anaconda, not a shitty large ship with all the qualities of a medium to compete with Cutter which is a large ship and a mighty fine one at that. Type 10 is just a joke like Asp Scout, but unlike Asp Scout some people have made it work for SOMETHING. I can give more examples, but I think my point has been made.
sidewinder, eagle etc should be ship-launched
The Eagle Mk2 is the best ship in the best ship in the game
type 10 bad??? unsub P
I explore ona dolphyn no heat problens
Why are you always speaking about the prices, money isn't really hard to make in the game so it shouldn't be such an important point... Even related to insurance it's not such an important point. Also looks like you are not considerating some part of the game like multicrew or odyssey, for me keelback was much better than type 6 cause i was able to bring a friend (might not have been the most efficient or usefull but we had fun doing trade with my friend covering me with fighter or him tontroling some turrets, helping with scans... We even won against some gankers), and after with the release of odyssey we still use it as our 2 players dropship for ground missions, can hold 2 SRV, a fighterbay we use to scout or destroy drones, shotgun to blast ground troops before landing, canon to take down turrets... Cool ship for odyssey with a friend !
Shit got pretty emotional towards the end.. some hook this bloke up with a tissue and some rajika.
Chally and chieftain are more than ok for thargo and pvp.
Imperial Cutter where
Imp cutter where?
In part 1.
This is part 2.
This game didnt die yet?
Keelback is above god tier that's why it wasnt in this list.
The type 10 could be a bit higher, I like it. For armoured traider or res site mining it works well.
I'd even call it good if not for the f#*%!€¥ spoiler.
Good antixeno ship too!
If the spoiler had have been for another couple of hard points it would have been fine.
But it's just literally just a spoiler on a space ship, when there's no air to spoil.
Pretty similar ship to an anaconda, but less jump range in exchange for better armour. Couple other details but they are similar ships, both good for multipurpose if you ask me but I would rather fly a t10 for combat.
I love it even more with a spoiler.
Very nice vidéo as Always, but...
The Corvette is god tiers for me, best ship in the game, i just can't fly any other ship, i do everything with my beloved corvette lol.
Yes i can't Land on outpost, my jump is not optimal if i compare to other ship, but for me she is perfect, i was in colonia and beagle point with her, i Can fight anything and won easely(except Real player of course^^).
It's a real pleasure to fly for a ship of that size, in conclusion,there is for now nothing in the game like the corvette :)
Fer de lance❤️
Tbh I feel like the python is overrated due to how over used it is. Everyone and their grandma is either running on a python or on a federal Corvette. Is the ships I have seen the most.
The eagle only has one use - combat, and it is terrible at it lol. It takes like an hour to take down medium or large ships - Dogshit tier
Love your videos but please, learn about sound compression. It is fucked that most of the time i need to realy put my ears to what you tell and out of nowhere you Just earrape scream or do any unreasonably loud sound. This is why i watch most of the your content on low volume levels. If you can not manage it for live streams - it is ok, but plz consider it for YT videos. Good stuff non than less on your Chanel, keep up the good work.
.... i know about it. i need hardwere compressor.
FIRST
forgot anaconda
Anaconda was in part 1
Well at least you think that you’re funny and entertaining, so guess that’s all the matters
And yet you're subscribed!
You forgot the Krait Phantom waaaahhhh 🤓
Spoiler alert: Yamiks review includes Type-10.
