Another great video Foxy! I am new to the combat side of star citizen and I think the guardian is going to be my combat ship. In this video the ships were glowing red and in some clips the target circle ⭕ was ahead and in others it lined up to the ship while you targeted ahead. I would love a video on your taregeting setup, if you can explain why/when you would use each type or what is and when to use component sub targeting.
This reminds me of my glaive in so many different ways but actually updated to Modern Technologies unlike the glaive which cig has refused to release the new models for despite the being done for like 3 and 1/2 years now.
Ye I am still waiting for those and see if i want a glaive then. One of the ships that got my interest early on with star citizen. Wonder the updated version. But without glaive having interior I doubt I gonna trade my guardian in. I liked vanguard cause of interior. Same with guardian.
Being unable to fully power the ship is frustrating and it seems really squishy by its numbers, but cant confirm that until i see it being used in something higher than a vlrt or lrt or against players. if it doesnt feel really good to fly, i think im gonna wait for it to be buyable in game.
The problems with the Fury is amplified with the Guardian and its worse. It may have 66k HP but its spread out all over the wings, and getting hit with ballistics this thing loses parts left and right. You lose an ENGINE and that's it. In the game footage you're not getting shot at by missiles but the Rockets fired from the mustang delta and look what it did to your Guardian, insta red everywhere lol. Great Vids btw!
@cpt_Foxyloxy can you PLEASE do a Stealth Cargo Ship comparison video?? Specifically with shields and no shields, balancing which ship has the lowest signature but can carry the most cargo, and would have the best chance to slip through undetected for those high risk, high reward runs in dangerous territory. You are always my go to when I need to know everything about my ship, and anytime someone wants to the difference between ships I always refer them to this channel for one reason only. Not only do you look up and dig up the ship numbers, you actually go in game, testing those numbers and show how it actually handles in game. You are a GOAT and LEGEND! I look forward to all your videos!
This thing can dish out some truly scary alpha damage with Deadbolts. You're literally chucking 2k damage at the enemy with each volley, meaning you can rip off wings and engines with brutal ease from smaller ships with one pass. Joust at your own peril.
I like when ships have tradeoffs in the component department, power managing, sizes, available weapons, etc, to create a natural progression for citizens jumping from ship to ship..... ......what I don't like is that these ships first start as real money purchases, so the ship meta is heavily biased by its USD cost, and skews the price-component relation
What does giving power to engines even do exactly? It just increases acceleration right? But how much exactly? Surely there's diminishing returns aftr a certain point
Can’t wait for part two just curious does the QI stop you from coming out of SCM mode if I’m saying that right. I know it stops you from quantum jumping, but does it trap you in Scm mode.
A little tip: The crusader showroom prices seem wromg on Erkul, I wanted to buy several things there that looked cheaper on erkul and they were the same price!
I think they said they broke ballistics, particularly the heat and they're aware of it. Don't know when the fix is coming. People were complaining about the Inferno being useless.
I wanted a mini garage accessible from the outside exclusive to the Mirai Pulse and one or two holding pods. This ship screams bounty hunting and imagiene how awesome would it be for us to land, hop on our Pulse, grab our gear from the external weapons rack and follow our bounty on the ground just to bring it back later in a cryo pod star wars style. Am I asking too much? Hell no, it's 260usd for Christ's sake, we need to value our money, for this amount I would expect all of these amazing features and more.
Love your work, Foxy! Really want to see it in a few PvP tests though. You don’t want to do a vid vs a pair of players in a Vanguard Warden, maybe? Or vs a Scorpius? Or an F8 Lighting? Need to see this thing vs something other than brain dead NPCs.
You cant use the cooler poewr bwcause when you swap in and out of acm it automatically forces full cooler power and of you had that power spent it will do stuff like disable radar etc
@Durion7 oh I know. I've been churning through bounties to save up for some Attritions for a few of my ships. The M7A's are putting in the work in missions.
The loadout I want to use costs around 800.000 auec, but sadly since the missions are mostly broken, earning that is a chore. I have tried 5 different missions and only one worked out.
@Cpt_Foxyloxy , I've got a small QOL request - when you are showing some data in a video can you please use lower resolution than a milion px by milion px? Or zoom in or use some scaling. I am mostly watching your videos on my phone and it's really inconvenient! It should not hurt other's experience as you rarely seem to need that kind of resolution toy show what you want to show. Like the power issues at the start of this video - it takes a fraction of the screen while it could be zoomed in more to be easier to watch on lower resolution screens. Thanks!
And components are about more than just HP and power. If you accumulate too high signatures you light up like a Christmas tree and become a missile magnet.
I'm not a big fan of the design. It seems big for the sake of being big. The arms are useless. they server no purpose other than making it big. If the guns were in there, it would have made more sense. For the size of those arms, each could have housed a gun and a size 1 power plant. or maybe 4 torpedoes. Imagine 4 S4 guns with each its own power and much longer fire time and then you have a good ship. Add 4 torpedoes and you have a real "guardian" against capital ships (Something like a Elco PT patrol torpedo boat (Think movie PT-109)). Currently, they just make it a bigger target with a small trunk for storage.
When you lie to yourself, you're lying to the entire world; this is *not* an agile ship. The Guardian was made with Xi'an technology, but it handles like a loaded grocery cart.
when you accuse someone lying when that is not true, then you lie to yourself, and to the entire world. I have compared in detail the maneuverability of this ship with the vanguard in my previous video.
@@cpt_foxyloxy I'm accusing people of toxic positivity, which is a type of cognitive dissonance. This is where a person will ignore all negative data and only sensationalize what they perceive as positive, and then report a net positive. But in these cases, the data is not shared by a majority of peers, so it looks like a false report. Going by the majority of reports, the Guardian's agility is very sub-par. You can believe what you want, but consensus reality won't always support you.
@@Syphirioth par to other heavy fighters, and even its own sales pitch. Why don't you use one in pvp and see for yourself? (these tests were npc ships that barely shoot back, its not going to show you what happens in a real encounter)
@@hellgeist_ A "real" encounter. Ye there you not picking anything to cuoose from either. "Real" encounter also means you come across light fighter that beats your ass cause it way more nimble. But you have 2 S5 on it... let it sink in. 2xS5... What you should not do is compare it to ships that have 1 more seat for more turret activity etc.q Also heavy fighter is not to solo all.

@@_neuromanser_😂
I was just saying to myself I wanted to find a components vid on the guardian and opened UA-cam to find this as my first video 🙏🏿
thanks for the video on the newest ship!
It's definitly my favorite space camper, and I was prepping to strip my prowler down to xfer parts to the guadian.
Great video!!! I really enjoy your deep dive into ships!
Finally, been waiting for this vid, always the deepers of deep dives when it comes to testing.
Want to say thank you for putting so much work into your videos! You really do such a great job of testing and showing some good loadouts!

Ayo I’ve never been this early, but thank you for the info as always!
You always have the best informational videos! Can you do one with comparisons of powerplants using the QI??
Nobody, anywhere:

Doesn't increase acceleration, just how fast your boost charges and how slowly your boost depletes. There are diminishing returns as you thought
I agree with you about the load-out.
Have you tested the light strike cannons for pvp ?
They my favorites. Especially the 4 and 5.
Red paint is nice, didn't think it looked that decent to start with, the engines are cute as well. Nice ship overall.

Inferno actually got buffed this patch, the overheat issue too! Seems like it’s doing much better now
@@kaymay5903 Inferno has felt great this patch so far, it was unusable on EPTU but they fixed it before the Live Preview.
@@kaymay5903 nope still overheats after 200 rounds
Unfortunately, the prices haven't been updated on erkul for all locations. So the highest price you see on there, tends to be the price everywhere.
are the rattler missiles hitting the guardian as they leave the ship?
Ok but whats the benefit in ehp between the military and competition sheilds?
Thanks man awesome stuff
Erkul prices for Crusader showroom are wrong, sorry mate!
deadbolt is 280k at crusader showroom now in 4.0 preview
It's 121k from orison as well for the ad5b
I wanted a mini garage accessible from the outside exclusive to the Mirai Pulse and one or two holding pods.

agreed, the stock loadout with rattlers is ideal
what was the first site that you were using to configure your ship? i use erkul currently but i would like to check out the other site as well!
www.spviewer.eu/
Does full power to engines actually cause you to turn faster or is it just boost recharge?
Love the videos!
Great video
Love your work, Foxy! Really want to see it in a few PvP tests though. You don’t want to do a vid vs a pair of players in a Vanguard Warden, maybe? Or vs a Scorpius? Or an F8 Lighting? Need to see this thing vs something other than brain dead NPCs.
Crusader showroom is the same price of 120k for AD5B I checked yesterday
You cant use the cooler poewr bwcause when you swap in and out of acm it automatically forces full cooler power and of you had that power spent it will do stuff like disable radar etc
S6 weapons, fix mounted??
On paper component HP difference exists, but does it actually make any difference in combat?
500 HP vs 800 HP is just 1 extra hit from a size 3 gun.
Can someone tell me what the difference is between the 2 Guardians? I've either missed it or no one has specified it.
I Love this ship. It's replaced my f8c
Is cooling a MUST to be enabled at this time (besides stealth/signature)?
Ive actually been having a *lot* of success using the stock M7A's of the Guardian. They don't have a lot of ammo, true, but they still hit hard.
Try attrition 5. They are a bit better for aiming and the damage is great.
@Durion7 oh I know. I've been churning through bounties to save up for some Attritions for a few of my ships. The M7A's are putting in the work in missions.
I can't even change any loadouts on any of my ships. How do you do it?
The loadout I want to use costs around 800.000 auec, but sadly since the missions are mostly broken, earning that is a chore. I have tried 5 different missions and only one worked out.
Hi 🏝️
🤔 So how long have I been calling you Gearhead..
Thank you for sharing friend 🪐
What about C788?
You can't buy military grade components anymore? How do you get them then?
loot! makes them precious.

Hold up whaddya mean we can't buy the military components??
I don't think cooling matters at this point in development, I always turn them off and I have no issue.
show room does not cost that low at show room, its 120k and 280k
And components are about more than just HP and power. If you accumulate too high signatures you light up like a Christmas tree and become a missile magnet.
Crusader show room prices are not accurate on erkul.. should be same as highest price
you don't need full power to everything to be effective

I'm rapidly counting down the 24hrs to melt this ship 😂 - it's beautiful but a meme.
